I’d been following the dragons and went down without warning.When I opened my eyes again, I saw them piling onto something ahead of me. Disoriented, I watched the writhing mass tear apart the poor creature underneath them, thinking that they had hunted something while I was unconscious. But as I staggered to my feet, my surroundings revealed that I wasn’t in the same place where I had dropped. There were no trees here, only barren black stone. The sky was a bleak and starless violet, the eternal twilight of a strange dream. The vicious swarm of dragons beckoned me, but not to the violence. It was the creature they had in their grip that pulled me forward. Whatever it was that they had, I wanted it to be mine.I lunged at them, dispelling the crowd with a roar unlike that which I’d ever made. I felt stronger than before. The dragons scrambled away, and I knew it was a dream because, in reality, they would have turned their teeth onto me instead. But here, I stood tall with my head rai

Gasping, I shook awake and immediately flung all the hands on me away. A chorus of shouts rose from the people surrounding me. Rolling onto my hands and knees, I bowed my head between my shoulders and breathed hard, sending death glares at anyone who dared try meeting my eyes.Nausea made my stomach roll, and my gums glistened with saliva. Given what I had just endured, the last thing I wanted was all this attention.“Everybody get away from her,” Aislin demanded, taking people by the arms and pulling them aside.As the Mythguard retreated, Sebastian gestured for them to stay on guard. “Keep your rifles trained on her just in case.”“What are you gonna do, shoot her if she tries to run? Fuck sake, you’re as bad as David,” scolded Aislin.“We’re just taking precautions,” said Sebastian.“Just shut up and back off,” said Aislin.For once, I found kinship in one of the strangers here. As Aislin knelt beside me, I sat up and wiped the drool from my mouth with the back of my arm. It was li

In the office that day, my boss commented, “Those circles are getting darker, Colt. What’s with the sleepless nights?” Then he leaned over my desk and spoke privately to me, “Is everything alright?”I looked up from my computer, and the screen reflected in my glasses that I only wore in the office. Five other brokers seated at their desks all glanced sidelong at me, trying to hide their nosiness. “Everything’s fine,” I said, forcing a smile. “Just a new video game came out recently. I hate to admit that I’ve been staying up past my bedtime for it.” My boss crinkled his eyes and straightened up. “Ah, you youths and your Nintendos and Master Chiefs.”“Surprised you even know those names,” I commented as he walked away. “I’m hip,” scoffed my boss. “I see what my kids get up to, you know.”Silent, I watched my boss return to his office but knew I would remain under the scrutiny of my coworkers, who would have far longer to observe me during these quiet, tense working hours. I minded m

For a brief moment of pleasure, my body reacted violently, agony searing my mouth and throat, and everywhere blood made contact. My hybrid beast was blinded by bloodlust and gluttony. It overwhelmed me, and as though in an attempt for my inner unicorn to stop me before it was too late, my vision darkened, and my limbs failed. I wrenched away from the carcass one last time, then crumpled, paralyzed, and finally unconscious.The ground underneath me moved, and my mouth was open, full. Lying limp, I couldn’t understand how the forest around me seemed to be sliding along without the energetic expense of my body. My eyes rolled as my head heavily tipped up, searching for an explanation, only to draw into focus the thick string tied around my muzzle, preventing me from opening my mouth any further than it already was. Something had been stuffed into my mouth—fabric that was soaked through with saliva and blood, choking me with the piney scent of my fated mate. I inhaled sharply and felt li

He had to have known that the instant he agreed to the deal, I would make my escape. I didn’t hide my intentions. My body was coiled, ready to spring, and yet he still opened the cage.As soon as the door was unlatched, I lunged, pushing it open with my shoulder and barreling out to freedom.Of course, he knew. He anticipated it. That was why he dropped the water bottle and jumped back instead of letting me push him down. My knees scraped the concrete, and I tucked my feet underneath myself, immediately springing upward, only to be greeted by the wide arms of my captor. To my surprise, he ensnared me and pinned me close to him, gripping one bungee cord in both hands and stretching it around me. I shoved his chest away and turned, trying to escape, but he’d already bound my arms against my body and hooked the cord behind my back. My mistake was turning. I couldn’t bend my arms backward to unhook it. “Shit,” I snarled.A second bungee cord hanging out of his pocket was wrapped around m
