LOGINHe nodded. “She's a half-dragon.”“So, what does that make you?” I was almost breathless as I waited for his response. I didn't want to get my hopes up, but I knew he was likely a dragon! No, this was too surreal. There was no way I would have stumbled on a dragon on my walk when I'd spent half the week looking for them unsuccessfully. “A dragon.” He grinned at me. It was then that I saw the glint of his fangs. “I'm also from Lyxant.”“Wow!” I grabbed the jug of water and poured it into my glass before I donned the entire content in one go. “You are like a real dragon???? Impossible!”“It's possible, darling.” He smiled at me. “I'm a dragon. A fire-breathing one.”“Can I touch you?” My eyes sparkled as I looked at him. I would have jumped across the counter just to touch him, but I had to hold myself back. “…” He gulped. I bet he'd never seen an overexcited fan. “You can.” He walked around the bar and got to my side. “You can touch me if it suits you.”“I can??” I got up from the s
I watched him expertly make the cocktail for me. He slid it over to my side, smiling. “Here it is, my lady. I hope it's to your liking.”“Let's see.” I picked the glass up and took a sip. The burst of flavour on my lips caused my eyes to roll to the back of my head. The taste was heavenly. It was the sweetest cocktail I'd ever had. If not for the slight burn in my throat and the warmth in my stomach, I wouldn't have believed it had alcohol in it. “Wow.” I downed the entire thing in one full gulp. “I love this. What's the name?”“I haven't thought of it yet.” He blushed as he made another glass for me. “Since it burns a little when it slides down the oesophagus and warms your stomach, let's call it the sweet burn sensation?”“Doesn't that make it sound like a pain medication?” I teased as I took the second cup from him. “What about Inferno's kiss?”“Inferno's kiss? I love the name.” He grinned. “We can use it then. Inferno's kiss. I love it.”“I'm glad I can be of help.” I emptied the
My mates were serious about the girls' trip. They convinced me, and I finally gave in. I knew I had to stop them from disturbing me, as they made it their duty to remind me of the trip every chance they got. Chris was excited. She had eagerly awaited a moment like this when she would get away from the drama of the kingdom and have a girls' time with me, with no disturbance. My mates even took my phone from me so I couldn't contact them. They just wanted me to enjoy the one week I agreed to, with no issues. “Where else do you wish to go after this?” Chris asked as she relaxed on the beach chair in the private swimming pool my mates had booked. Before we left the house, they had already covered all the expenses and booked the hotels we would stay in each country. Well, they booked enough for 2 weeks, but I would not stay that long. A week was more than enough. “Can't we stay here for the entire week?” I groaned, turning in the chair. I wasn't that thrilled about this trip because I
How do you find a dragon? Okay, that question has been on my mind for days now. I had sought every means possible. I even tried to search for them on Google. Yeah, I wasn't leaving anything to chance. I wanted to contact them, to reach out to the remaining dragons for help. If what they said about dragons being real was true, then I needed to find them. “Didn't you mention going on a girls' date with Chris?” I jumped when I heard the question. I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't notice my surroundings. I just needed a response to my damned question, not someone materialising out of thin air!“Stop doing this, Blue.” Letting out a sigh, I sat back on the desk. I had taken their study as my new room, chasing the owners away. It wasn't as if there was something important in here. I just wanted time to myself, and the study was the perfect place for it.“Stop doing what? You wouldn't claim I sneaked up on you because I didn't. I walked through the door like a human. I didn'
“We can't give up because the others couldn't achieve it, right? We need to do things our way. We need to find the dragons.”“How?” Both of them looked at me, with their lips pursed, waiting for my response. “How do we locate them?”“I haven't thought of that, but….” I got to my feet. “We can find them. Don't forget, you have a witch as a partner. I can trail them and —” “What if we don't find them? What are we going to do?” “We will.” I was so convinced I could see the future. The truth is this: I had always wanted to meet real-life dragons. Hearing there was a possibility of seeing them, I didn't want to leave anything to chance. We would find them, and I would take my time to admire them for as long as I could. “How?”“Trust me.” Winking at them, I started for the exit. “I made dinner. It's in the kitchen. You can warm the food if it gets cold. Goodnight, I have a call to make.” I waved at them before I stepped out of their study and closed the door behind me.I had never been t
“Lying? That's not possible.”“Oh, it is, darling. In the human world, we call it a stratagem or a ruse. He wants you to think he has got the entire dragon on his back so that you will give the throne up without a fight.”“So, there's a thing like that?” Fred drew away from the window and approached me, staring at me like he was seeing me for the first time. “You mean to say he wants to scare us into thinking he had everything under control when he didn't?”“Exactly.”“Wow. That's unexpected.” He sat next to me on the couch. “What do you think we should do in such a case? Should we do the same thing he did? We could lie about the —”“He will catch up faster. Unlike you, who just heard of the strategy a few minutes ago, he knew what he was doing when he spread the news. Doing the same would make him realise you understood his stance. What you have to do is get the actual dragons on your side. Make your actions speak louder than your words.”“That's easy to say,” Blue muttered. “Unlike
BELLA“How did you know they injected me?” I demanded, peering up at them with my eyes squinted. “We…” Blue gulped. “We went to look for Kendera while you were asleep. It was how we found these.” He took two syringes out of his pocket and showed them to me. “We were troubled, so we rushed back home.
FREDWe wanted to do something for her. Blue suggested we take her out to dinner, but I was against it. Even though we'd gotten used to leaving the house, mixing with humans was a no-no for us. Though we didn't rely solely on blood like the pure vampires, walking among mortals was a lot more difficul
I drove my car to work, feeling extremely nervous. Though I succeeded in getting every tiny detail from the brothers, I felt like the director might sniff something out or ask for the impossible. I had yet to get a video of them because Blue kept on playing with everything. So far, I have only had t
I'd never felt as nervous as I was at the moment. I gulped, still looking at the bag as if it were a carnivorous animal. Fuck! How could I have been so careless? I even forgot to disconnect before stuffing the phone back in my handbag! “Bella!”This time, it was a growl. A very animalistic sound. The
