First: I would like to dedicate this story to everyone that didn't know who they truly were until they were adults and had to deal with the upheaval of their current lives when the realization occurred. On the opposite side of that coin this is also for those that have known their true selves for their whole life and refused to back down. Second: Robert- Thank you for being supportive of this adventure, testing out some theories and the noise cancelling headphones that allow me to remain close to you while I work without having to divide my time. I love you too much and rent free. Third: My children. May they never read this book until they are MUCH older, but if they do I hope they live their best and happiest life and know that they are the air that I breathe and my reason for everything that I do. Fourth: My mother. Thank you for listening to my ramblings about plot points, the world of werewolves and VERY watered-down descriptions of dark romance. You have always been my idol, and I couldn't be half of the person I am without the love, guidance, and acceptance you have given me through the years. Finally: My people. They know who they are. For being just as crazy as I am, supporting this crazy side quest my life has taken, calling me on my bullshit and listening to my ADHD stories with a genuine smile, words of wisdom and smart-ass comments. Whether you are laughing with me or AT me, I don't show it very often, but I appreciate you so much. Note from the Author I want to take this time and thank you for reading my book. Whether you only stop in for a moment, or you ride this ride to the end, thank you. Without readers and (hopefully someday) fans, this world, this moment, this book would not be possible. I am always open to comments, suggestions or critiques. Just try to be gentle haha! This world was something I created over the years in my random thoughts or while reading other books and thinking, "I would have done that a little differently." I implore you put your thoughts on paper/screen. Write that poem that stirs your soul. Sing that song that brings back bittersweet memories or smiles. Creative outlets are an amazing way to purge negatives, uplift your spirit and show the world we are more than our money, status, job titles or appearance. Never stop believing that you can do multiple things at once. Be multiple things at once. You are enough but if YOU wish, you are capable of so much more.

There are many resources out there for you!Everleigh’s POVI had only been asleep for a few short hours when I heard the unmistakable squeal of Beth reverberating through the halls of the castle and echoing down to the tower. The sound fills me with delight, and I jump out of bed in a flurry of excitement and dash towards my best friend as she steps into the room, flanked by her three hulking escorts. I knew she wouldn’t put up much of a fight. Unlike me, Beth loves male attention, and has such confidence she has no trouble turning heads wherever she goes."I knew it! I knew you would find your mate! I’m so happy for you Ev." Beth cries, embracing me in a tight, comforting hug."You couldn’t believe how happy I am that you’re here Beth. We need to find the High Priestess and lift her curse. She has bound my dragon, can you believe it? I have a dragon. And you are a witch, like an actual real witch, aren’t you?" I blurt everything out, this is what I had needed, my best friend, the one person who has been there to help me put t
Night has fallen by the time the Everleigh and Xavier make their way back to the palace. She is no closer to figuring out what to do about her impossible situation, but she feels more at peace with the unknown. Xavier has been adamant in his reassurance that they will find a way to keep her safe and lift the binding curse.When they reach the palace doors, Everleigh cranes her head all of the way back so she can take in their truly enormous size. She thinks to herself how everything here seems so much bigger than back home. The doors are easily as tall as a two-storey house and the scrollwork and gold inlays only adds to their breath taking magnificence.Xavier leads his beloved through vast, ornate room after exquisitely decorated room, and down wide echoing corridors until they come to a stop outside one door. Everleigh braces herself, she has no idea what awaits her on the other side, but if Xavier’s child like grin is any indication, she needn’t be too concerned.He braces his pal
After allowing her father's words to truly sink in, Everleigh realized that the only viable option was for her to find a way to unbind her dragon by herself. She knew that if his former coven ever found out her magic had been set free, then she would never be safe again. And the thought of never being safe again terrified her. Everleigh asks Xavier to take her on a tour of his parents' magnificent kingdom as a distraction from the overwhelming thoughts coursing through her mind. She has very limited knowledge about dragons and magic, which is based entirely on what her father had told her in his stories many, many years ago. She needed time to mull over and to process the massive amount of information she had consumed in the last day, in order to make sense of it all. She was absolutely stunned by the truth that dragons, witches, and real magic exists in the world and seeing her father alive and well had truly made her question everything she knew. Everleigh follows Xavier as he con
When Xavier senses that Everleigh has settled, he releases her from his embrace and quickly leads her back towards the bedroom. He urges her to get dressed as they need to get to the palace as soon as possible. The witch’s warning rings in his ears as he grabs the precious few items he can not leave behind. One of the great advantages of being a dragon shifter is that he can mist them both there almost instantly. Xavier wonders to himself if she will be blessed with any other runes, and what they might be. If she is a bound dragon does that mean she will inherit her family magic, her mother’s magic? He knows only a dragon could have given birth to another female dragon. Every dragon born in the last three centuries has been male.They arrive at the palace gates in a dense dark green mist, the guards on the gate bow before them and lead them inside. It is no secret that Xavier is their prince, although he rarely shows himself, and they know not to question his orders. The guards are sh
“How do you feel now my love?” he asks, moving up until their lips meet. His kiss steals her answer before it can leave her lips.“Try answering like this precious.” His voice comes to life in her head again.“Huh?” she replies in the same way. “Oh wow, this is amazing. What? How am I doing this?”
Xavier is certain that it must be mid-morning already and he knows he should let Everleigh be, as mating with a dragon can be an intensely draining experience for their human counterparts. He is mindful to give her the time she needs to recuperate in peace. Xavier is momentarily distracted by the s
Everleigh has been alone in the world ever since the heart-breaking death of her beloved father two years ago, only a month before her eighteenth birthday. She has been wandering around searching for a purpose and direction, having no clue what she wanted to be or do with her life. However, deep do
Xavier tenderly lays Everleigh down on his bed, her luxurious brown hair spills over the pillows just like a river of molten chocolate. He carefully removes her running shoes one at a time, then her jeans, so she can rest comfortably. His fingertips brush against her skin as he gently tucks her in,
