The hall was a mess. Men and women were running around. Everyone seemed to be scrambling trying to figure out what was happening. Everyone seemed to be in a panic trying to figure out how many ancient ones there were. The main other burning question was where we would send everyone where they would be protected and safe from any ancient ones. It seemed like everything was going to h*ll in one night. The ancient one on campus is what really set everything and everyone into a panic. That was a lot of people to try and evacuate. It forced the council to act faster than usual. If another ancient one showed up at another highly populated area we'd be in a lot of trouble. Just then I heard a loud crash outside. I could feel the earth shake under my feet. We all looked at each other frightened, thinking something was attacking the council. We all ran towards the window to see what was happening as guards poured outside to fight. They were quickly stopped as we saw the large red dragon layin

Eryn stood over me and extended his hand for me to take. I grabbed it, needing help, but I was so confused. "How are you here?" I asked him."Really Rain?" He asked as if I offended him by the question. "It's not hard to follow the path you left to get here. All I had to do was focus on you." He answered. "I didn't know I had left a path for you to follow." I admitted. "Wait, I thought you said you weren't going to watch. Why did you help me?" "I couldn't let you lose your magic." He said softly, some of that hard exterior of his shedding off. "You're still my charge and somehow I would get blamed for it." Well so much for that hard shell shedding. "Well thank you. Even if you were doing it for yourself." "I guess now you owe me two times." He smiled his devilish smile as a strand of hair fell over his face. I instinctively reached for it wanting to place it back in its spot, but I stopped myself. Eryn noticed the action though and he grabbed the wrist of my extended hand. He pul

Eryn had left me after I told him that I hoped we could all work. He didn't say anything to me, he just walked out. My heart broke a little when he left. What I said was true, but if I had to pick I would choose my already mated mate. I don't want to lose Eryn, but I think I'd die without Charles. I paced around the room unable to rest. I waited not so patiently for Charles to come back. I was trying to come up with the best way to tell him about Eryn, but how could I. All my attempts to explain it seemed faulty in my head. I let out a heavy sigh as I admitted defeat and plopped in the armchair. I needed Charles to accept it all. The way he and Eryn were at each other's throats made the idea seem impossible. I was chewing on my thumb nail when the door swung open. Charles' head pushed through, catching me. "What's wrong?" He asked furrowing his brows into that V. I shook my head, still not sure how to tell him. "I'm fine." His face called bullsh*t at my words. "No, you're not. Y

Charles closed the door behind him, and again I felt a slight twinge of guilt. I got up from the bed deciding to join Charles in the bathroom not wanting to cause him any more pain right now. Eryn's arms snaked around my naked waist unexpectedly. He had gotten up from the chair when I wasn't looking. He kissed the nape of my neck sending a warm feeling down my spine straight to my core. I let out a breath, as my chest rose. "You're so beautiful when you cum, Rain." He whispered. "I want to hear you scream my name next." My knees were weak at his words, causing me to lean back against him. "Will you let me?" I let my teeth hold my bottom lip hostage wanting desperately to claim my mate, but I wasn't sure it was the best idea to do it with Charles in the next room. I didn't want him to hear and be hurt by it. Eryn trailed his hand up to my breast tracing small circles around my n*pple. My resolve quickly vanished under his touch.Eryn continued gently kissing my neck and my shoulder.

We sat in the tub a little while longer. Eryn finally released his bun from the top of his head, revealing the length of his hair. It wasn't quite as long as his father's, but still long. It sat just past his shoulders. It was very straight and so light in color in certain spots, it was almost white. His pointed ears peaked through the strands of hair. I felt myself becoming aroused again just by looking at him. He was extremely handsome, especially in the water. He dipped his head down wetting his long hair and I bit my lower lip as he came back up. His hair now glistened with water as he pushed it back. I could feel Charles getting hard behind me. He was feeling my arousal again. His shaft was pressed against my back, only increasing the arousal I was feeling. I sat up so that my a** was right in front of it and I rubbed myself against him. His d*ck pulsed against me as he let a low growl of pleasure out. Eryn eyed me wondering what I was doing. He seemed to realize what was happe
