Uh, Oh. Now what? Read the exciting adventures in book three. Leave me comments on what you think of this unique story.
(Preface) With the help of our new friends from Staxon, a plan to rescue Galen and his parents from Amadoria has been formed, using me as their secret weapon. I still cannot believe who is at the center of all these terrorist attacks on our worlds. Our only question is why? And how is Lucas whom we destroyed involved? We are just fortunate to have our new friend, and his ability to train me and my newfound power. My parents have been overseeing the repairs on the three worlds, as well as training themselves for a much bigger battle that we know is imminent. King Xipher is confident we will win this storm as he calls it. I sure hope he is right. I look forward to it all being over once and for all. God willing! ~Rayana Karver Rowen, Queen of Kaihu Chapter One- Dregon “Are you Sure?” My dad asked in complete surprise. My mother walked over to me placing her hands on my shoulders, “Honey, we cannot go around accusing unless we have proof. Joanita is my friend and has helped us thr
On the day of the planned rescue, I woke feeling nervous. How I pray, nothing goes wrong. I showered and dressed and went downstairs to breakfast. Most everyone was already up and eating except my mother.“Where’s mom?” I asked as Amiya set a plate down in front of me.“She is on a call with Joanita.” My dad said as he took a bite of his breakfast.“You don’t think she suspects anything?” I asked frowning and setting my cup down after taking a sip of my coffee.“No, it didn’t seem that way, and your mother is playing it cool.”Xipher asked, “Are you ready for tonight?” I looked up at him, and I could tell he sensed my nervousness. “We will do another practice training if it will help ease your mind.”I nodded, “I would feel better about it.”“Feel better about what?” My mother asked entering the room and sitting down.Xipher smiled, “The young one is feeling nervous about tonight.” He answered my mother.She looked over at me, “It won't interfere with the plan will it?” She looked awa
The next morning Rayna was still sleeping. Galen has been staying close by her side, and as I walked into the room, he looked up at me with tired eyes. “Were you awake all night?”He nodded, “I tried to sleep but couldn’t. So I got up and sat here holding her hand.”“I told Amiya to bring you a tray of food.” As he was about to protest I put my hand up to stop him, “You need to keep up your strength,”He nodded again, “Thank you, mom. I do appreciate it.”I smiled at him as I went over and noticed how flushed Rayna looked and lightly touched my daughter’s head and frowned. “Has she felt this warm all night?”Galen frowned as he touched her forehead too. “I hadn’t noticed until you said something.”“Maybe I should summon the doctor?” I said as I began heading towards the door just as Amiya was about to knock holding a tray of food. “Just set that on the table, and could you contact Doctor Kenley and have him rush over? Let him know it is about Queen Rayana, that she seems to be running
Now that I am fever-free and able to train again, Xipher has been helpful in helping me strengthen my body against this weakness. If we are going in for a big battle, then I need to be strong, body and spirit. So far there have been no incidents, but we are prepared and know it will come.“I want to train outside, Xipher. You said I went beyond what you trained me on the night of the rescue. I would like to know just how powerful I am.” I was saying taking a swallow of my coffee at breakfast one morning.“And we will. I am just not sure you are ready physically. Your body has a long way to go before it can withstand your power.”I sat back and sighed, “We don’t know when the attack will happen. We need me ready to do my part in defending our worlds.”“I understand that, young one. But if you are not strong enough your power can kill you then what good will you be if you are dead?”“If who is dead?” Galen said walking in upon hearing the last words of Xipher.I sat up straight in my ch
The next morning I had packed a few things and was standing beside Xipher and his dregon. My case now fastened to the back of his dregon, and I looked around for Selest. “Where is Selest?”“Your Tayren would not survive our climate on Staxon. You will have to ride with me.” Xipher said as he patted the seat behind him.I nodded my understanding and turned towards Galen and threw my arms around him, “I love you, Galen. I will miss you.” I looked up to see his handsome face.“I love you too.” He bent down and kissed me passionately. Wow, I hope I won’t be gone long, I will miss my husband too much. “You best mount up before I change my mind.” He kissed my forehead, and I nodded trying not to let the tears fall that were threatening to.Xipher helped me mount up behind him on his great beast and reached my hand out to Galen, He took my hand and squeezed, then he slowly let go and backed up. My sight never leaving his. Just then the dregon spread its wings and lifted his mighty body in fl
The practice again was quite rigorous, and I stood drenched with sweat. Breathing heavily, I looked up at Xipher. “Again!” He said showing no mercy as I tried to catch my breath.I shook my head, “I can’t.” I said breathlessly.“You can and you will.” He said walking near where I stood bent over with my hands upon my knees trying to catch my breath and circled me like a caged animal. “You have it in you to surpass your human body, Rayna. You are more than human, and you will do it again.”I was beginning to feel angry at his words and his pushing me beyond my limits when something snapped inside me. I raised my weapon at him and came at him in full fury mode. Our swords were clanking together in full battle until I finally had him down on the ground, my flaming sword near his throat. He looked up at me in complete surprise.“I said, I can’t!” I said through gritted teeth.He smiled at me, “You just did.”When the realization hit me at what I just did, I lowered my weapon and turned aw
It was nice having Galen with me for a few days. I was allowed to go back home for Kieran’s funeral which was a tough moment for us all. Including Cedrick, Kieran’s boyfriend. It was heartbreaking as he placed a small box upon her casket with a flower then kissed the casket before stepping away. I looked up at him as his tear-stained eyes glance at me. I had no idea he had planned on asking Kieran to marry him.I felt weak in the knees with emotion at the idea of how she will never know or experience the joy of marriage and children. I had to lean against Galen so I wouldn’t fall and he placed his arm around me to keep me steady. When the casket began to lower the tears rolled down my cheeks. I had a sister for a short time, but with her, in my life, it felt like a lifetime. She will always be my sister forever in my heart.A few days later I was back on Staxon to finish my training. Queen Joanita sent the cure, and now it was being distributed to all the hospitals and people were beg
Out in the open field, Xipher and I stood ready to begin Rayna’s training. “How do we proceed with this training with both of you?” Xipher asked, and I smiled.“Rayna and I have been in communication. I will allow her access to her body as I will instruct her from inside.” I walked up to my husband and wrapped my arms around his neck, “I will instruct her to open her thoughts so that I can hear you. It will be easier that way. Just remember when I relinquish her body to her, she will be Rayna, not me.” I said with a serious expression.He kissed me before saying, “I know, no touching her.” He then kissed me again, “I will be good and remember.”“Good,” I said as I stepped back a few steps and closed my eyes.“Rayna, you can now come forth, but I need you to open your thoughts and mind so that I can hear what is going on and help guide you in your training.”“I understand, Nerin.” Suddenly I felt myself step backward as Rayna stepped forward.Once I opened my eyes, I was me again. “Wow
