Semua Bab Taming the Fire Dragon: Bab 1 - Bab 3

Kenna“Are you serious? You’re pregnant again? Can’t Ajax keep his hands off you?” I ask my friend and ex-roomie, Emmi.“You do know it’s not his hands that got me pregnant, right?” she asks, smirking at me.She wasn’t always this confident. For someone who used to be so innocent, Ajax, or more likely Phoenix, has totally corrupted her.“Yes, I know,” I growl.“Speaking of hands, how is a certain elf king?” she asks.“That question had nothing to do with hands,” I say to her as we make our way to my mother’s fire class.

And while I know I shouldn’t, I need to know he’s okay.“Have you spoken to Yhen lately?” I ask her.She stops and looks at me. “Have you?” she snaps.“You know I haven’t,” I snap back.“Well, maybe you should. I’m not you’re messenger girl.” She turns to walk away, but I grab her arm.“Please Merethyl. You’re mated to a dragon.
