Taming the Fire Dragon のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

YhendornI can’t believe my mate is pregnant with our child. Okay, we have practically had sex non-stop for a week and a half, so I should have been more prepared. All I can say is that being with Kenna made me lose my mind. After I made sure the volcano wasn’t going to hurt anyone, I lost track of time, space, and anything that didn’t involve Kenna. Watching her come while feeling her body contract around mine and watching her scales shining brightly just under her skin have become my favorite things. Feeling her in my mind is beyond any pleasure I could have ever imagined. It was explosion after explosion of pleasure, each one better than the last, each one sealing us more tightly together as mates.“Yhen, how are we getting out of here? I mean, I guess we can climb,” my dragon says.After ‘celebrating’ for two more days, two days of non-stop orgasms that ended with both of us collapsing exhausted, we’re back on the ledge looking at the magma that is still threatening to erupt again

YhendornWe spend the next two days preparing to return to the Academy. I task Merethyl with researching the previous elvish wars, specifically The Great Clash. That was a war with elf against elf, something we’re on the precipice of facing again.“We should ask Phoenix too,” Kenna says. “Remember, she was there during The Great Clash.”I rub my hand over my forehead, feeling the strain of what is to come.I feel warm, sure hands wrap around me. I press my hands to my mate’s. “I’m okay,” I say.As much as I love my mate in my mind and I wouldn’t change it for anything in the world, I forget that she now feels when I’m stressed. In the past, I was able to hide the worst of it from her. Now, there is no hiding anything from my dragon.“You’re not okay. You’re trying to pretend with me and you can’t any longer, Yhen.”I feel her press her lips to my shoulder blade.“We’re a team, right? That’s what you want. You want us to be equals, but how can we be equals if you continue to treat me li

KennaDuring dinner, everyone welcomes Yhendorn back to the Academy. I’m so used to him being in my life, so used to growing up here at the Academy, that I never realized just how much the others here love and respect him.Now, I’m seeing things from a different perspective. I’m a claimed dragon, a woman, a mate, and soon I’ll be a mother. Maybe it’s those things, or maybe it’s that I am finally accepting my role as a queen. Whatever it is, I can see the near reverence that the dragons, shifters, and other elves have for my mate. It makes me even more proud that he’s mine.I growl possessively, causing everyone to step away from my mate.Without missing a beat, he pulls me into his arms, kisses the top of my head, and continues his conversations with others.I look up at him in awe. How am I falling even more in love with him? Is this normal? It feels like my dragon’s heart is expanding with every moment I spend with him.‘Ask your mother, or Zephyr, or Kaylani. They’ll know if it’s no

YhendornWhen Avani returns the next morning, he confirms the rumors that Keya heard.“We have to figure out how to get them away from their riders!” Avani says, slamming a hand on the table in the room where we’re meeting. All the Elementals, their mates, Keya, Elio, Vaeril, Anala, Ancalagon, Kenna, and I are meeting to discuss the next steps.“I understand it’s upsetting, Avani,” I say.“You weren’t there. You didn’t see it,” he growls.“I see it in Kenzo at every conclave,” I say patiently. I understand his frustration. I feel the same way.“We have to DO something! I can’t just keep sitting around talking about doing something. We need action!” Avani says. The ground begins to rumble. “If that had been Gaia or Terra being forced into those situations ...”“Peace, my dragon. Our children are safe,” Mere says.“But for how long?” he says, pulling her into his lap and burying his face in her neck to help calm himself.The news of Ember’s abuse and that of Princess Naevys hit all of us

KennaI make my way to my parents' packhouse, waving hello to others at the Academy. Having spent most of the last decade here, I know everyone.When I walk into the packhouse, I see Nova helping Kendrick practice with her fire. Around here, pack members are used to fire and fire dragons, so no one blinks at someone lighting fires inside.Since Kendrick’s back is to me, I put my finger to my mouth telling Nova to stay quiet. Kendrick is sweating, concentrating hard while trying to pull a flame onto his hand, I push a little of my own fire into his hand, making it blaze hot.“I did it!” Kendrick yells excitedly.“Yes, you did!” Nova says, throwing her arms around him and winking at me.I lift my nose in the air and begin to follow my mother’s fire scent. It takes me upstairs where the scent of forest, Lycan, and fire mingle with the hybrid blend of my family.My brother Liekki comes striding out of his room, walking just like my father does. He’s about a year and an half away from getti
