Corithias dragged his injured body down to the water. His wing was severely damaged from mortar fire, and two of his ribs were broken by the large arrow sticking between them. As he made it to the rocks, he collapsed, passing out from exhaustion. Alicia had gone down to the waterfall to swim. She made sure she was alone before stripping her clothes and jumping into the stream. The water was cool at first, but her body adapted to the temperature, and it was pleasant for a morning swim. The girl had come to this stream many times throughout the years and had never worried about being caught. No one ever came out to their farm, especially this early in the morning. She saw the dragon fly overhead, screeching in pain. She saw him fall, and although he was a dragon, she felt sad that they had killed the beautiful creature. At least, she thought he was dead the way his body fell so lifelessly. Alicia swam over closer to see if it was dead or not. To her surprise, he was still breath

Alicia got caught running in the back door by the mistress of the manor. She smacked her hard across her face. “Where have you been? You are late!” Rosalie Richwood stood with her hands on her hips angrily expecting an answer. “I am sorry, My Lady. I went to take my bath in the stream, and I found an injured animal. I had to help,” she explained, holding her stinging face. “Get busy getting breakfast ready and get to your chores. You and those blasted animals. Get it through your head, you are not a doctor. You are a slave, an orphan, trash is all you will ever be,” the woman spat. “Yes, My Lady,” Alicia said, holding her head down to hide the tears forming in her eyes. She was used to the insults and the slaps, but that didn’t keep the words from hurting her. Alicia had taken a fall many years ago when she was but a child of eight. She remembered that her city was under attack, and she had run. She fell onto the rocks, and she could not climb back up. That is when the dragon

Corithias sat at the entrance of the cave, thinking about his little princess. He was sure she was the little girl he had saved so many years ago. He recognized her scent. She had grown into a beautiful woman. His human body longed to hold her.Alicia was his mate; he knew it in his heart, but how could a dragonith be mated to a human, he pondered. It was not possible. Surely, he must be wrong, he thought…. still, the feeling was so intense. It made Corithias sad to think that God had chosen him a mate that he could not have. “How cruel you are!” He shouted, shaking his fist in the air as he looked to the sun. He needed to get out of here, quickly before the mate bond was formed between them. Once the bond was sealed, it would be great pain for both of them to be separated. He transformed into his dragon form and tried to fly. Unfortunately, the injured wing was still not strong enough yet. He heard footsteps in the forrest, so he stayed in dragon form. Alicia had a dream about

Corithias flew high above the clouds with his beloved Alicia holding on tightly to his back. He could smell her delicious scent of peaches and lilacs and it made him happy. Alicia was thrilled as the wind blew through her hair. She looked down to see her farm and the nearby villages becoming smaller and smaller. People looked like ants to her. If they did try to shoot at him, they were too far away now. Two dragons came towards them, and Corithias smelled Alicia’s fear. The only way he could assure her that everything was alright was to keep going towards them at a calm pace. It was his cousin and Royal Guard Tiegres and his Royal General Geoffrey coming to check on him. Corithias knew that he never should have gone down to the human kingdoms without them, but he wanted to make sure that the rogue leader and his soldier dragons were not terrorizing the humans. The irony was that the very people he tried to protect tried to kill him. The dragons made squawking sounds as they co

“Son?” A female voice spoke behind them. Corithias let go of Alicia and bowed to the queen standing in the doorway. “Mother, this is Alicia, my mate. Alicia, this is Queen Vashti, my mother,” Corithias said, introducing them. Alicia was shocked to hear him call her his mate. She was not sure what that meant, but his mother did not look impressed. “My Queen,” Alicia said, bowing low before the woman. “Your mate, you say?” The queen said in a disapproving tone. Corithias tapped Alicia to stand by him. She stood and searched his face for assurance that all was well. “Go, see your father. He needs to have a word with you about going to the human realm with no protection. He is very displeased I will tell you that,” Queen Vasti said. Corithias grabbed Alicia’s hand and started to go see the king, but his mother reached out and took Alicia’s arm to stop her. “You stay here. This is between father and son. Corithias took a deep breath and nodded to Alicia to stay. She was terrified.

Corithias went back to Alicia’s room and knocked on the door. “Who is it?” Alicia called out as she sat at her vanity, being prepared for the evening meal by Natalie and Lauren. “It is me, Prince Corithias,” he said, straightening his suit. Lauren giggled and Natalie teased Alicia. “Go, let the prince in, you silly girls,” she teased, grinning at them. “My Prince,” Alicia said, bowing before them. “Alicia, please,” Corithias said, causing her to rise before him. “We are friends. Although you are more used to my dragon form, I am still the same friend you came to know. I am your dragon. When we are alone, let’s just be ourselves, okay?” He asked, kissing her hand. Alicia was mesmerized by his dazzling sapphire blue eyes. She could barely believe this human was her dragon, but obviously he was, and he was a prince. He wore the clothing and crown of a prince standing before her now, and she smiled at how handsome he looked. “My Lord, you look very handsome in your suit,” she said,

“Phoenix,” Adelaide said after listening to their descriptions of Alicia’s experiences. “I think you are the missing child of the Firebird Queen. It was said that you were lost when a group of rogue dragons attacked your kingdom. They killed the Lady Phoenix and intended to kill her child, who was said to posses the same power as her mother, but you disappeared. You were assumed to be dead,” Adelaide told Alicia. “Child, your mother was Queen Sephora, a very noble and powerful Phoenix, and your father King Joffrey who was known as a wise human and great king. It is said that your mother was a gifted healer. She was known to be fierce in battle, but also had a deep compassion for her people. She was a great leader, like your father,” Adelaide explained. “Prince Corithias saved me that day. I fell over the hillside onto the rocks and hit my head, and suffered amnesia from the head trauma. Corey picked me up and carried me to a farm far away from the battle,” Alicia explained. “An

“Come, Princess, let’s celebrate our discovery! I know just the place,” he said, grinning and he took her hand and hurried outside the castle with her. Cory guided Alicia through the hidden garden and out through a path in the woods. He knocked away some vines that hid a wooden gate. Looking at Alicia’s face, he grinned mischievously and pulled the secret gate openAlicia could not believe her eyes. Outside the gate, she saw a huge crystal blue lake. He grinned at her, waiting for her reaction. To his surprise, Alicia wrapped her arms around Cory and hugged him with excitement. “Oh, Cory! I absolutely love it here!” She exclaimed. He knew that she would. “Shall we?” He asked, looking at the sparkling water. “Like this? We cannot! We have our best clothing on!” She protested. “Then, we shed our clothes and swim in our undergarments,” Cory suggested. Alicia blushed and hid her face at the idea. “Come on, Sweetheart. Let us have some fun!” Cory pleaded. Alicia stared at him for a

Once they arrived on the side porch of the castle, Alicia turned her back and handed Cory his clothing without looking. He dressed and finger combed his long blonde strands of hair. Alicia looked up and raised her eyebrows, pleased with his casual good looks. Cory smirked as he grabbed her hand, satisfied that his lady liked his looks. The thought boosted his ego. The two appeared in the living room of the castle where the king and queen sat waiting for them. “What took you so long?” The king asked in his deep resounding voice. “We were out enjoying the day. Surely you remember when you and Mother were young,” the prince quipped. “Enough of the joviality. We need to discuss something that involves both of you,” King Jaffa declared. Prince Corithias motioned for Alicia to sit beside him on the sofa. She sat down, politely smoothing her dress and placing her hands in her lap. “My mother told us of your identity, Princess Alicia. The information about your alter ego should be kep

Judas arrived at the Valtaren Valley Castle, the Rogue Kingdom, Luxe Province. Alvarez, the Castle’s Chief Guard met him to find out what was the purpose of his visit. Judas told him he had vital information about the Fire bird princess. Alvarez escorted him immediately to King Cyrus. Cyrus lounged on a pile of firs with several young females around him. “Well, well, Judas. Have you brought me something interesting?” The big rugged looking man asked, smiling. Cyrus stood, fully naked and unashamed. “Why should he be?” Judas thought, trying not to stare at the Fierce Mountain of rock-solid muscle. The scars on his body baring the testament of many hard-fought battles. It was hard to look at the jagged scar from his forehead to his jaw, blinding his right eye. There was another long, jagged scar going across his chest. Both of these wounds were sustained when Prince Corithias defended the Lithuacia Kingdom. “Your Grace, I have found the Fire Bird Princess. I know her whereabout
