Chapter Twenty Two
I took the police report back to my room. By the time the sun started showing signs of life over the horizon I was very familiar with the case. I knew I wouldn’t be able to leave the island, but I wanted to show support to those who would. I grabbed a light sweater and headed to the docks.
As I approached the soldiers all dropped to one knee.
“Please rise.” I said, “It is I that come to honor you this day. Be tireless, and bring Dakari home!”
Everyone cheered, the mood was confident. As the ferry departed and became a speck on the water, I wa

The grin on Maggie’s face matched the crazed one on Daniel’s friend. He looked like he had just been hit over the head with a hammer, and liked it. As he started to make his way towards her the others started to clue in. “Not another mate bond?” Abe spoke in disgust. “She doesn’t even know his name.” Daniel spoke for the first time, “This is my best mate, Geoff.” Geoff muttered hello to all of us, but never let his gaze leave Maggie. They were only separated
The Hunt For Freedom Chapter Twenty Four
Fear swept among our ranks. My people needed a competent leader, and I wasn’t sure I was up to the task. How I wish my Grandfather would swoop in and take over. No, that wasn’t true. If I ever wanted to earn respect from my Pride, it would be in times of crisis. I just needed to channel my inner feline strength. It was time for Kaya, my panther, to make herself known. If the goddesses felt I was born to be a leader it was time I called on them for help. I need to remember what Grandfather always said, “Just do what comes next.” I took a deep breath and steadied myself. “Ok, we need to speed up our time table. There is no need to wait till just after midnight. Let’s get all the players here in under an hour. Bring the shapeshifters, someone find Dalya,

By six the war room was crowded and loud. Last minute encouragements were given and the plan was gone over again. Dinner was pizza and sandwiches, but most lay untouched as the focus was on the rescue mission. By eight everyone knew the plan down to the last detail and helicopters could be heard landing in the training yard. It was time to load up. Farsi had many trained pilots in his squad of elite soldiers and three had been selected based on their knowledge of the area. Helicopters had been secured on the mainland and rented for the evening. This solved the problem of how to get out of dragon territory with speed and stealth.

The sun rose over the horizon in shades of blue and purple stunning enough to hurt the eyes. Off the coast the clouds formed and dissipated, the winds carrying the remnants far and wide. A group of fifty or more met on the beach, looking none too rested. Katalea studied the group and saw the look of determination and hope on their faces. Tiredness showed in the hollows of their eyes,but our Pride was resilient. They would train as a unit, as they had almost every summer. Groups would be formed and leaders would emerge. Classes would start again in all aspects of training. Mr. Kalb would supervise as Abe and Dalya thought Tahtib to the younger generation

I watch Abe run down the beach and into the churning grey water, fighting my primal instinct to give chase. His body glides over the waves as powerful shoulders work like oars to a well tuned row boat. I turn and head toward Jade’s, happy to put the thoughts of Abe in the back of my mind for a while. Jade and Daniel are out sunning themselves on the veranda overlooking the toddler’s beach. Jade is resplendent in an all white bikini with just enough material to be legal. I can see her toned stomach rise and fall rhythmically with each breath in a slow pattern that suggests to me that she is sound asleep. I stand there and admire the bright yellow hibiscus

A full contingent of battle ready warriors is ready to accompany me to my suite. Abe gets one whiff of the lust filled air and emits a warning growl. He is not my mate as of yet, but he is clearly not attempting to share me. The others lower their heads, and back down to his challenge. After training with Abe for years, no one wants to take on Abrax Kalb. The salty night breeze has a welcome chill to it as we walk hand in hand to the house. The sun is dipping below the horizon, leaving us captivated with an exhibition of magenta streaks, mixing and swirling with clouds that hold dark golden hues, enchanting us for a brief moment of unspoiled beauty. I have so many emotions coursing through my body, this romantic scene seems to be setting the stage for a di

Far away from the ice cream shop, a lean rugged male studied “Cat Island” as he liked to call it, through his computer monitor. After watching the fiasco the previous evening he was keeping a close eye on Princess Katalea. She had grown into a beautiful young woman since he last saw her.He was tall, to the point of lanky when he didn’t eat enough, Essam pushed away the oatmeal brought by the servants, chock full of nuts and berries. Rabbit food he thought in disgust. An alpha such as him should be devouring flesh. The thought of a rare steak excited him, and he vowed to have one sent up before night's end. Seeing his own reflection in the window, he adjusted his wavy hair.&n

Part TwoIn The Dragon’s Lair The cliffs in this part of Ireland never fully dried. Be it the mist of ocean spray, or the endless rainfall, the caves were a beautiful view from far away but not too appealing at close range. They served their purpose for the Gruppa of weredragons now occupying them. The main cave was about a hundred feet above the pulsing ocean below, at high tide. A human would have to work extremely hard to find himself exploring here. Dragons entered in flight then shifted once on solid ground. The dense mist stood as cover, light rarely reflecting through to the actual entrance. Of all the temporary lair’s they had inhabited, this current one seemed the most ideal. At least that is what Essam believed.
