Damn it. It looks like this time I have really poked the beast. I was hurt when he wouldn't even answer the simple question to why he hasn't shifted in so long. I was honestly curious. I never figured that there could be something wrong with his dragon. When I felt his body jerk on the couch I was knocked to the floor. I looked at him in confusion thinking that he accidentally knocked me off. What I ended up seeing made me really hope instead that it was an accident. As his nails grew into long sharp claws I found myself scrambling to get away from him. My heart hammered in my chest as I ran to the wall on the opposite side of the cabin to escape him. He growled so loud that I could feel my bones shake. Before I could react once more his anguished cry reached my ears. "GET OUT" he screamed.For the life of me I can't understand what force would not let me leave him in this state. Everything in me screamed for me to run and save myself. As I watched him struggle patches of his choco
There are just way too many things on my plate. I've never realized how much I have come to rely on Maximus in the years since I took over as Alpha. My dragon flaps his wings harder as he nears the destination of the fairy folk. It has been years since I have had to make the journey to check on them in person myself. The other clans were as surprised by my visits as I was to see the advancements of their homes. Overtime we have grown too used to communication through technology. I found it much simpler to handle majority of my duties through emails and a well-timed phone call. If I need something gathered in person it was easier to send Maximus to gather it or to have it delivered to me. My body is tired as I circle the landing pad. It's been so long since I have flown this far that I am feeling the strain.We need to get out of the office more. The sun is good for my healthMaking a mental note to do just that I shift back into my human form. A few fae who sensed my arrival have com
I slam the door with a loud CRACK that reverberates through the cabin and sprint behind Maximus. I hunch down waiting for the giant man to make his entrance. "Come on Maximus. Now would be a wonderful time for you to unfreeze" I scream at him only for it to go unanswered. The front door flies open, and the hulking man fills the entire doorway. As enormous as he is there is no way he isn't a dragon I think as he ducks under the door frame."Who the fuck are you?" He shouts. Keeping my eyes averted I stare at the floor as tears fill my eyes and I plead with him. "I don't want any trouble buddy. You can just go back to wherever you came from" I shout as I cower. "ANSWER ME!" he demands. The air in the cabin suddenly grows thick and an invisible weight bares down on me as the words leave my lips unbidden. "Emily, my name is Emily" I cry. I feel as if the oxygen has been ripped from the room as the words are torn from my chest. I'm suddenly suffocating under the invisible strain and b
You have got to be kidding me. I seriously don't have time for this. This was just supposed to be a simple stop. I just wanted to see if Maximus was getting a reign on his dragon, and I get this. He has already caused me so much trouble and potential paperwork.Stop whining and pick the woman up. She no longer needs to be blindfolded if she is unconscious."Right" I say as I pick her up. As I gather her up from the ground I sniff the air scenting for blood from her fall. Satisfied when I smell none I quickly walk over to the bed of the truck and contemplate how to place her. I don't just want to throw her on top of him but seeing as how he is freaking invisible; this is a high possibility. Easing her legs in first I still can't see his form. I quickly place her all the way in. When her arm flops to the side he finally comes into view.Good being able to see both of them will be helpful when I have to get them out. I quickly start up the truck and make my way to the clinic. Hopefully,
I look at his still body and wish that he would wake up already. I feel as if he has been gone forever. I trail the tips of my fingers along his strong muscular arm. When I tune back into the room I hear the big guy talking about a distraction and my ears perk up.I watch him as he takes a cell out of a drawer in the room and starts to use it. He still wears Maximus black robe. The fabric stretches over his heavy frame. Even though I can see every crease of the fabric from his large muscles, the sight does nothing for me. Sure I find him handsome. His five o'clock shady looks like gold dusted on his face. His long hair lies in a ponytail at the nape of his neck. It is the most interesting shade of blonde I have ever scene.I could have sworn that when I looked outside it shined gold when he shifted around. I honestly thought that it was a trick of the light. I snap my head to the right toward the door of the room when I sense movement. It's just the other man who is human moving towar
I tried to stop her. I have no idea what she was thinking as she tried to shock in with the human still attached. I rush forward to help as Igneous pins me to the wall stopping me. "Our babies Magma, you can't" he whispers into my ear. A split second later the whale of the human fills the air as she is electrocuted.She sobs as she drops onto Maximus' chest. I wiggle in Igneous grasp as Xander places a hand on Dr. Snow. They exchange a look, and I can see that he wants her to do it again. They can't do this. They could kill her. A loud growl leaves my throat in warning as Dr. Snow approaches the bed again. The human starts to mumble, and the thought crosses my mind that she could have brain damage.I will protect our young. Stop themWith all my strength I push Igneous away and walk across the bed to the room. Quicker than I thought possible the human pushes Dr. Snow and climbs on top of Maximus to scream for him to come back and then she ....she kisses him. A bright light fills the r
This isn't right. It isn't right. This is no place to give birth to my young. The pain from them coming causes me to roar. I inhale air as I try to breathe through the pain. My talons slip out and I claw the surface of the bed hating the chemical stench of the sheets. My young cannot be born here. They will not be safe. If I have them here I will not be able to protect them.I want to sag in relief as the pain subsides. Looking around the room I can see my mate as he stands there. I want him to help me but know that I cant. This is something that I have to do on my own. A whimper leaves my lips at the thought, but I have no choice. Making my gaze leave his I look to the nearest exit to find it blocked. Searching the room the window is clear. Rushing to it I use my claws to break the glass. Many shouts spring up behind me but I pay them no mind. I do not have much time. I feel as hand grab my arm and the tingles that spread let me know that it is my mate. Knowing that he is trying to s
"Come back to me" I hear as I float inside the ether. I thought that the world was playing a trick on me. We have been traveling for so long with no destination. There is nothing here and I am lost. But the voice it echoes. It sounds like "Em-Emily" I say as my dragon chimes in calling for his mate. Something in my heart tugs. It's the first feeling I have had since we got stuck here. Knowing that I need to follow it I tug. With that one tug we go flying through the ether.It feels solid and warm. Oh my something taste amazing. The scent of our mate fills the air and I have never been happier to see someone. But my eyes are closed where is she? I move my lips against the taste and suddenly it disappears. I groan as I instantly miss the flavor. I open my eyes to see my mate so close to me. As she licks her lips I know that it was her I was tasting. God I need more. Taste more. We can taste so much more.Grabbing her behind the neck I bring her back to my mouth. Fuck she's sweet. It's
