I am in a different part of the same boat as everyone else...

With Halona in mind, Catori made her way to her house by taking the long way. Walking down by the ocean where she saw the dragons not so long ago.
While making her way to Halona, she was hoping to see one again. Wondering if it was her father, or the mysterious man that now haunted her dreams.
But she wasn't so lucky. She spotted none, and not before long she was at her friend.
Before Catori could knock, the door was opened with the messy brown haired Halona standing in the doorway.
"Did you know that I was coming?" Catori asked.
"No, I was only coming out for some fresh air." Halona said, not meeting Catori's eyes.

Catori's heart raced as she got closer to where a circle had formed around the new arrivals to the village. It was as if Rydstorm was waiting for Catori, because the moment she arrived, he turned his attention in her direction and smiled. Catori's heart raced faster, and the dream of last night came back to her. Rydstorm made his way over to her, but Leona blocked his path. "Hi, I'm Leona." She smiled, twirling a strand of her ginger hair around her index finger. Rydstorm made a face, "excuse me but I'm not here for you, now move." Leona gasped, "that's rude." "Rude is you forcing yourself on a man because you think you look good, you don't." Rydstorm sneered. He turned his full attention to Catori. He ran a finger down her cheek, then played with a lock of her hair. "I told you I'll come back for you." He gave a half smile. Catori opened her mouth but couldn't find her voice. "Your people

Catori took a shower, thinking that it would be her fault if her parents should ever split up. She thought she was the cause for their argument, since she never listened to her mother. But what she didn't know was that Lucian was planning to leave Farrah. With every nagging word, it pushed him to want to leave more and more each day. He had already fallen out of love with his wife, only to stay because of their children. After Catori got done, got dressed in a silky red nightgown and laid down to read more of the book. But the place spun, and it also became hard for her to breathe. A small cry escaped her lips, not from pain but from something else she can't explain. Catori opened her window to get some fresh air, only to notice orange and purple lights dancing in the sky, which held her attention. She stared at them for a while, feeling drawn to them. It was as if they were calling to her, and so she followed them by climbing

Catori looked over to the enormous canopy bed, wondering if she made the right choice by agreeing to stay the night. Rydstorm took her chin with his index finger and forced her to look at him. "We don't have to fu*k on the first night." He said. Catori fought back a laugh. “Why do you have to say it so, so raw?" "I'm just being truthful." "Well, I'm a virgin. So we might not ‘fu*k’ at all." Catori said. Rydstorm gave her a look, "we will see about that. I need a shower. Care to join me?" Catori's eyes widen, "n-no." "Hmm, your lost. But the offer still stands if you change your mind. When Rydstorm closed the bathroom door behind him, that was when Catori sat on the bed, feeling on edge. She was in a total stranger's hotel room, in a sexy nightgown. This is what her mother warned her of, but yet here she was. After sitting there for a while and swinging her feet, she crawled to

When Catori woke, she was tangled up in the sheets and with half of her body on Rydstorm.She gasped, then sat up in bed, causing Rydstorm to wake as well."What is it?" Rydstorm asked, his voice low and sexy with sleep.Catori bit her lower lip, "nothing. I should go home." She said, after looking out the window.Before Rydstorm could gather himself, Catori rushed from the small hotel.The freezing morning air bit into the flesh of her cheeks as she hurried home.The few people that were already up and going about their day stopped to stare at her, whispering as she ran by."Catori!?" Leona called.Catori turned her head slightly to look at the pale skin girl with dark curly hair."Where are you coming from?" Leona asked, her brown eyes burning with mischief.Catori didn't answer, but she didn't have to. Leona already had an idea. She only wanted confirmation.Leona's small oval-shaped face turned sour as she scrunched up her broad freckled nose."You are such a whore! That man has o

Catori struggled with her trunk as she dragged it across town, despite the cold air biting into her cheeks. She still went on until she ran into Calian and Meztli.At first they only stared at her, while she ignored them to sit on the brown and brass trunk to catch her breath."What are you doing?’’ Meztli finally asked."Looks to me as if she finally lost it." Calian mocked.Catori gave an enormous smile, "don't worry, you and this village will get what is coming to it."She pulled the trunk behind her again, leaving the two stunned males behind.As Catori went on, people from the village gave her strange looks.She could see Sister Rose, in particular, who was shaking her head.When Catori finally got to the Grande Desolation, she pushed the door open, just in time to hear Rydstorm saying."I'm going to look for that girl."Then he paused, his mouth was slightly open as he was surprised.She let out a breath, dropping her trunk, causing it to make a loud thud sound on the stone floo

Rydstorm sat on the bed with a great sigh.''Are you alright? It seems as if the world is on your shoulder,'' Catori said, moving to his beside Rydstorm.''Just the burdens of being King. My people are now at a clash because some want to leave this disgusting waste land, while others want revenge.''"You could easily give them what they want, we could go and then let your people who want revenge take it.''Rydstorm gave a laugh.''You and Fang have the same idea, but it isn't so easy.''''Fang? And yes, it is.''"Aren't you worried about these people that live here, your friends and little bother and sister?''''The twins aren't real. The one friend I have, I would warn her. Apart from that, everyone and everything can burn. Besides, I think the nuns are planning something. They know about dragons, I think.''''Amica mea! That is no way to go. As much as I hate humans, I can't just go throwing my weight around. There are still innocent begins who don't know-''''Well, when I get my dra

Catori let out a contented sigh, now with a full belly and feeling as if a burden had been lifted."So, what are we going to do today?'' She asked.When Catori turned to face Rydstorm, he felt his body jerk as her feminine scent invaded his senses. He didn't understand why it was so strong suddenly.''You are so close, I can almost taste you,'' Rydstorm told her.He imagined her in his arms, making love to her until she cried from pleasure."So stare at each other then.'' She nod.Unexpectedly, Rydstorm's lips covered hers.He growled softly when she leant closer to him. At the same time, Catori could feel her body coming alive with an unfamiliar sensation.Catori tried to pull away, but Rydstorm grabbed a fist full of her hair to hold her in place, making her clutch onto his upper arms.His tongue drifted out, licking her lips, but with her inexperience, she didn't know what to do. But she did something that surprised him and sent chills all over his body.Her soft hands held onto th

The soft snow falling made everything seem even more surreal.Catori couldn't believe that she had finally left Desolation, and that this was where she'll be living from now on."I already love it here already." Catori smiled."I can imagine. This is a place our kind needs to be. Open, fresh and with those that are of our own."''What is it like living in a house full of dragons?""Palace." Rydstorm corrected. "But it can be chaotic, a lot of snapping, growling and going for each other's neck. But we can’t kill our own.""Your people try to fight you?" Catori's eyes widen in shock."No, they are more sensible than that.''"So, there is no danger to worry about, then?""Mostly not. We haven't had an attack in centuries." Rydstorm told her truthfully."Apart from your sister, who else do you live with?""Four sisters and one brother. I'm the eldest. You will know us different because our blue hair and height sets us apart from everyone else.""Do they live here?"Normally Rydstorm would
