Taran looks at me with sadness. In a soft voice, he says, “I cannot save Gesina.”

“What? Why? Don’t you love her?” I ask in surprise.

“More than anything in this world. But I cannot save Gesina.”

“Why can’t you save her?” I ask, slightly annoyed.

In a gentle tone, Taran replies, “Because I’m looking at her. You are Gesina, Tru. That is why you came here. Everything about you is almost identical to her. Ges had longer hair when I met her in my dreams, but it is the same color. And your eyes, no one has eyes as you do. I felt hypnotized by them even in dreams.”

“Taran, I don’t hold any magic or anything like she does,” I say in defeat.

Taran shakes his head, “No, it is because you do not know how to use it. Tru, the magic is sleeping inside you, waiting for you to awaken it.”

I stare at him, confused, “How do I awaken it?”

Taran places his hand on my chest, “Just relax.” A warmth begins to spread through me. In flashes, I see Gesina’s childhood. Her parents look like my parents,

Sorry for the long break. I needed time after the medical issues to adjust. It took a while to become myself again.

  • The Dragon's Stone   Why do you sound surprised?

    I sit on the edge of the deck reading the book Taran gave me while listening to the crashing waves. I’ve ignored Taran for hours. My stomach has growled for over an hour, but I don’t want to see Taran in the house. This hiding is extremely childish, but I just cannot face him.“I brought you something to eat,” Taran's deep voice is soft as he sets a plate down beside me.In a passive tone, I replied, “I’m not hungry.”“Tell that to your stomach. I’ve heard it since I walked into the house.” Taran sits down beside me. “Can I explain now?”“What is there to explain?” I asked, annoyed.“It was shortly after we met, just before we mated, that you were having nightmares. One night, you stopped breathing, and a red mark appeared on your chest. I had to shake you awake. You clung to me. It was the scariest moment of my life. You almost died, and I was just in the other room. That is when you asked me to go into your mind and see your dream. I told you that it would allow me to see everything

  • The Dragon's Stone   You had no right!

    I look at Taran. “You would’ve let me go?”“If you were happy, yes.”“Why?” I asked in barely a whisper.“Why have I done any of this, little dove?” Taran asked while he gestured towards the house and island. “Find the answer to that and you will know my motivation for everything I do.”“Why won’t you just tell me?”Taran smirks at me, “Because words mean nothing without actions. I could tell you I hate root vegetables, but if all you saw me eat was beets. Would you believe me? If I told you my favorite dessert was ice cream, but I only ate cake, would you consider me a liar?”I shake my head, “Maybe. But I also do not like to assume things.”“You aren’t assuming if I’m showing you.”I sigh, “You’re just not going to tell me anything, are you?”Taran shrugs, “What do you want to know?”“Did I dream about you before I went to the wolf pack?” I asked.Taran nods. “Yes.”I wait for a moment. “Are you going to elaborate?”“No.”I cross my arms. “Why not?”“Because, little dove, there are

  • The Dragon's Stone   Try again

    “Try again,” Taran says gently.“We have been at this for hours. I’m not improving,” I reply, annoyed.Taran gives a sly half smile, “You’re still standing, that is something.”“I’m standing out of spite,” I hiss.“Yesterday by this time you were on your knees,” Taran explained.“Yes, and a wind out of nowhere pushed up my dress.”Taran’s sly smile only grows, “Wind is a precarious thing.”My eyes cut to him. I know he caused it. “Yes. One day I will learn to control it too.”“I have no doubt,” Taran replies. “Again,” Taran whispers.“Why are we doing this anyway? Who cares if I can grow fruit on a tree?” I demand.“You were able to grow a flower, this is the next step. This is helping you learn to stay balanced and work your magic. The more you exercise it, the easier it will become.”I roll my eyes, then focus my attention back on the small tree. I begin trying to concentrate my magic, but it comes out in spurts. “Breathe, Trudy. The energy you bring in needs to match the magic you

  • The Dragon's Stone   TVAGT Part 2

    That freedom lasted less than a day. I had warned her father and brothers not to talk about what happened. I don’t want to lie more than necessary. The curse I used could claim Tru’s life if I do not finish destroying the dragon rebellion. David had to bring up Cindy. Though I was angry that he could’ve hurt his sister, it also told me a lot about why Tru locked herself away. She believed she had killed a pregnant Cindy in front of David and the rest of her family. When David and Bill started to argue, Tru ignored them. She seemed fine until she saw her mother. I could see Tru walking back to the prison cell in her mind as she grabbed her mother.At first, I was angry. I fully expected Tru to push me away, but she didn’t. Instead, she brought me into the cell with her. It was uncharted territory for me. I decided to give Tru control. The cell door was gone thanks to the night before; now, it was up to Tru. We would leave when she was ready.Later that night, while we were in the pool,

  • The Dragon's Stone   Taran's View After Getting Tru Part 1

    TaranI finally have Tru back home with me. She wasn’t herself at first. It is clear she barely remembers our dreams, but she remembers enough to recognize me.I shouldn’t have threatened Tru about having my heir. I just needed the damn wall she built around herself gone. I needed Tru, my Tru, and I only knew one way to find her.The first time I ever saw Tru, really saw her, was our first time in that hotel. Somehow sex broke down our walls. It was always like that. Anytime that wolf hurt her, Cindy angered her, or she felt sadness of her mother, I found Tru during sex. It broke down every barrier. The same was true for me. Anytime the pressures or frustrations got to me, Tru knew how to break through to me.Our first time back together, Tru asked me to be gentle. It was unlike her. That’s when I noticed the fear in her eyes. I realized then how much Tru was hiding, not just from me, but herself. That is why I gave her a fantasy. There were minor differences, but the main part of Tru

  • The Dragon's Stone   Enchanted Pool

    We walk back to the house. There is a small stairway on the other side of a large, empty room. We descend into a room where a pool resides. There are no windows, but stones in the wall seem to glow. I approach one, my fingers gently glide over it. The stone flickers. I hear music. The stones seem to be humming. All the stones flicker one by one, playing a melody that seemed so familiar, but I couldn’t place.“Now they are going to show off for you,” Taran says with amusement.I can’t help but smile. “What song is this?”Taran shakes his head, “I cannot hear them, I can only see them.”My smile fades. “Really?”Taran nods, “You were blessed by the spirits. You can see and hear things others cannot.”I shrug, “I’m not good with magic. I used to make smoke animals to entertain children, but their parents felt uncomfortable with it, so I stopped. Then I tried at home, but after a few mishaps, it was strongly advised that I didn’t continue”.“Show me,” Taran says.I feel slightly embarrass

  • The Dragon's Stone   You look like a king

    We land on the beach near our house. I struggle to climb off Taran, but he uses his tail to help me. After Taran passes me the box, he steps away. “Wait,” I stammer.Taran pauses, watching me closely. I put the box on the ground. “I haven’t gotten a good look at you. This is the real you, right?” I asked gesturing towards him.A grumble, then Taran’s bends his head so his gaze meets mine. I extend my hand out to touch him but quickly recoil. “I’m sorry. I forgot that it is rude to pet someone.”Another grumble, followed by something gripping me around the waist. I’m pulled towards the dragon. If my hands were not in front of me then I would have slammed into him, face first.“You don’t mind me touching you?” I asked. Taran shakes his head. My fingers trace the red scales varying in hue. Some are bright red, some scarlet, other a blood red all with thin golden marbling. “You’re beautiful,” I whisper. I look up into Taran’s reddish-orange eyes. “And you’re warm. I assumed you would feel

  • The Dragon's Stone   Reunited with the family Part 2

    “She used you to get to me?” I asked. David nods. A look of shame washes over his face. “I’m sorry you were put in that position,” I tell him.David nods, “I’m sorry I let her manipulate me.”Something inside me seems to break. Looking at Taran, I ask, “Will it ever stop?”Taran shakes his head, “No, but I’m never letting you go again.” Taran squeezes my hand, “That is why I made a home for us. I put wards around our home to protect you.”“It doesn’t end with me, does it? What about the heir you desperately want?” I demanded.“Without an heir, the dragons will die. They will fight for power until they kill each other, leaving the world open to all the night creatures to kill. The water, the ground, and even the air will become poisoned.” Taran’s eyes soften, “I know you’re worried about the future, but I promise you if we decide to ignore our destiny, the future is much worse.”I stare at Taran, “They will never be a child. Someone will always be trying to hurt them or take advantage

  • The Dragon's Stone   Reunited with the family Part 1

    “Trudy-bug,” my father cries when he sees me. He hugs me so tightly that I can barely breathe. “I was worried you would never want to see me again.”“I’m sorry, Dad,” I say as tears start to stream down my face.“No. No. I’m sorry. I should’ve listened to you about Cindy,” my father said.“What happened?” I asked.My father shakes his head, “It’s not important now. All that matters is that you’re safe.” He motions towards a house, “Come, I will have everyone over soon to say hello.”Taran stands next to me after shifting back into his human form. My father smiles and offers him a hand, “Taran, thank you for bringing her home.”Taran accepts my father's hand, “Tru’s home is with me. Once she is settled, I will take her to learn from the spirits. She will likely be gone a year or more.”“You’re sending me away?” I asked surprised.Taran nods, “When I can no longer teach you, yes. I will visit you often.”“I am not losing another year with my family,” I replied.“We will not discuss this
