Taran

Tru and I arrive at her parents. I do my best to seem present, but my mind is elsewhere. How do I reassure Tru that there is only her in my heart? If this girl does exist, I don’t know her or remember her. I never should’ve told Tru about what I found.  

I told Tru about the visions and journal because I feel there is a connection between someone knowing Lyse Galno and what I found. All the knowledge of the supernatural world is gone, yet someone knew of Lyse. The person spreading the stories of Lyse and the person behind what I found may be two different people, but I believe both will give me clues about what happened to the dragon stone.

Tru and her dad go to organize something for Alice. I am sure Tru will take the time to ask her father about the stories of Lyse. I hope whatever she finds will help us find the stone and prove that the other girl doesn’t exist.

“Taran?” Alice’s voice pulls me from my thou

  • The Dragon's Stone   A visit

    The next couple of days follow the same routine. I’m left alone through most of it. Outside of Willow, no one speaks to me.I continue to try meditation with little luck and balance seems impossible. Willow seems patient, but I’m sure she is growing frustrated. During our lessons, Willow often reminds me to clear my mind. It sounds so easy, yet my mind is never clear.On the seventh day I sit under the oak tree trying to mediate when I hear a familiar voice, “Hello little dove.”I turn to see Taran standing next to a tree. My legs don’t seem to move fast enough as I run into his arms. Taran catches me and spins me. “I’ve missed you, my dragon,” I say, reluctantly pulling away.Taran places me back on the ground, “How are you? Willow told me that you’re struggling.”I nod, “I’m not doing a good job with meditating. I can’t clear my mind.”Taran notices the journal, “Have you been writing?”I shake my head, “I can’t think of anything worth writing.”“Sometimes to get the thoughts out of

  • The Dragon's Stone   Ignored

    The cottage is small and there is no running water. It is just one room. There is a small wardrobe with a place to hang clothes and two bottom drawers. A shelf held books from the floor to the ceiling. A small hearth sits in the middle of the adjacent wall. On the far wall is a small twin bed.“You will eat your meals with us. Drink with us. Only for sleeping, will you be here.” The Huldrea said.I lay my bags on the bed. The lower part of the walls and around the bed look as if a child painted on them. “Did a child stay here?”“The last sorcerous that trained with the spirits painted those. It was long ago, over five centuries.”I look at the wall amazed, “Must be some good paint.”“Please take a few minutes to unpack. My sisters are cooking for the first meal of the day. You have until I return to settle.” She turns and leaves before I can respond.I turn towards the bed. How will Taran and I fit on this together? I place my bags on the bed. It creaks and bows under the weight of my

  • The Dragon's Stone   Flying to the Isle of Spirits

    Taran took me shopping yesterday. He bought me clothes, luggage, and toiletries I will want when on the Isle of Spirits. I stare at my bags, wondering if I’m missing anything.An arm wraps around my waist, then a hand pushes my hair to the side, exposing my neck. Soft, gentle lips caress my neck up to my jaw. “Are you wearing those little lacey things?” Taran whispered.I smiled, “Would you like to check?”“Yes,” Taran runs his nose up my neck, “We can be a little late to meet with Willow. Why don’t you remove these pants, and I will make sure those lacey things fit properly.”“You checked them last night, remember? You pulled me onto the bed, then punished me for having clothes in bed,” I teased.Taran lets out a sound of satisfaction, “Is your arse still sore?”“In places, yes.”“Good, then while you’re gone, you can remember me.” I could hear the smile in his voice. “I could give you another reminder, if you want.” Taran’s hands grasp my hips.“Will you help me settle into where I

  • The Dragon's Stone   She will leave me

    TaranI watch Tru and her nephews hunt for shells on the beach. Since we removed her from the wolf pack four months ago, she has become Tru again, my Tru. The laughter, the smiles, the attitude—everything is how it was before her mother passed. It feels bittersweet. Soon, Tru will go to the Isle of Spirits.“She looks better,” Bill says absently as he watches Tru.I nod, “She’s happy.”We both stand in silence, until Bill says, “I would do anything to go back to that funeral. If I could’ve handled things differently, everyone would be happier.”“Her magic was waking. We couldn’t stop the event from happening, only slowed them.” I tell him.“Still, maybe you would’ve found a different option than leaving her with Bryan,” Bill says angrily.I’m silent for a moment, “There were too many who wanted to hurt her. Tru would be in danger. Besides, I don’t know if I could stay away.” I sigh, “I made a deal with him, that is what kept me from her. That is how I kept her safe.”“Do you truly bel

  • 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
