Books About Dragons For Adults Novels & Stories

“You are the Commander, but you cannot command destiny. You cannot touch her because your aura will crush her. You cannot reject her because the bond will kill you both. You are trapped, Draven. We are looking at a living nightmare.” I closed my eyes, forcing Karl’s furious roars into a corner of my mind. We've heard stories of dragons tearing themselves apart because they could not survive the loss. True mates were rare precisely because the bond was merciless. It gave everything or destroyed everything. “Then she stays ignorant. I stay away and pray to the Creator that the world never finds out what she is to me.”

Usually, the library calmed me. Today, it felt like a war room. Books lay open across the table before me as I searched through every reference I could find. Dragon Queens. Ancient bloodlines. Lost kingdoms. Forbidden magic. Anything connected to the visions. Anything connected to the dragon. Hours passed. The deeper I searched, the stranger the omissions became. Every text mentioned dragons only briefly before dismissing them as extinct. Lost. Destroyed. Gone from history. The repetition felt deliberate. As though someone had spent centuries erasing them from the world.

‘Copy that,’ Ryan says quickly, shutting our link down. Getting up from my desk I decide to make my way to my room to get ready for tonight, it’s already late in the morning and I haven’t done a single thing to get ready yet. Lily should be in Alex’s room so I don’t think I’ll see her, I’ll just have a quick shower and get dressed in the ceremonial robes and head outside to see what’s going on and when our guests will start arriving. I invited dragons from all over, after all the female dragons were captured and eventually killed off all the kingdoms slowly depleted making me the last dragon king, but there are still old kings out there that will hopefully try to restore their kingdoms now t

Dragons described as gods in one text and tyrants in another. Truth, I was learning, depended heavily on who survived long enough to write it down. I searched for dragons too. Not the grand myths—I’d already skimmed those—but the quieter things. Social structures. Bonds. Politics. How dissent formed. How it spread. How it was buried when it became inconvenient. The whispers I’d overheard in the city clung to me like burrs. Structure shifting. Tradition under threat. Leverage. Those weren’t the words of people afraid of humans.

I was willing to do anything to prevent the fate—even if it meant seeking out a mate. The true cause of my inner corruption was a mystery. In order to understand my plight, I ordered my men to scour every book in the castle’s royal library for any mention of elementals consumed by darkness. Despite their effort, they found no answers. Among the ancient tomes were books about dragons. However, these texts were written in a language so old that only the previous dragon-shifters could decipher them. Dragons had been extinct for decades, hunted to extinction by a cruel king in a distant, abandoned kingdom called Dravonia. The king, legend had it, was cursed by a witch after he killed her mate—a

“You continue to surprise me, My Dragonette… and still remain a mystery to me…” “I can say the same about you,” I say quietly as he pushes my hand away from the pouch, his knuckles grazing my stiff nipple. I tense as our eyes meet once again, feeling his cock throb and I swallow hard. “You owe me answers… we’re mates… and I know that only dragons who hold the ancient Dragon Fire can have a mate. So, don’t you dare say, you owe me nothing,” I whisper, knowing I better keep my voice down. He tenses, clearly not expecting me to know as he looks me sharply in the eye and for once I feel like I’m looking into the eyes of an extremely intelligent, sharp, calculating mind…

"Alright. It's something I should have learned long before now anyway." "Actually, you didn't really need to know about it before now. Dragons hit sexual maturity at 21, and you've only recently turned 21. As for having children, all I know is that when a dragon gets pregnant, it takes them three months to lay the egg and that a week before due, it's impossible to stay in human form in order to have the egg. Also, female dragons can only have five children in their life and only one child at a time. So it's impossible for a dragon to get pregnant again for the next five years after having an egg."

Even after eating a full meal, I have a fluttery empty feeling in my stomach. During my childhood, I heard stories of dragon eggs. There were several eggs in gestation at the time. I was told I couldn't go near them because dragons are unpredictable and quite possessive of their young. I was curious but young, and I spent little time thinking of procreation and all it entails. Two centuries later, all but four dragons were dead. Now, thousands of years have passed and only a glimmer of the stories hold a place in my memory. Ever so slowly, I peer over the side and behold the grandest treasure of my life. I gasp at the sight of the egg's dazzling brilliance. It shines halfway up the high towe

I wanted to look at the creature, but the wings continued to push me downward. “Stop forcing the poor child down like that.” The blue dragon spoke again. I could see the hints of silver glisten in the dim moonlight. “Humans should not know of our existence.” The angry voice came from above me. I pushed myself into a standing position once again. If it was a dream, I would control it. If this was real, I was not going to be pushed around. The second dragon landed not far from the first. His scales were black with several scares easily carved.

"Oh, besides what I already knew about how possessive and protective dragons can be towards their families, there are also a few things that are new to me… like how you collect things and treasure them. Judging by the size of Richard's library, one of the things he collects are books?" "You're right. Books and the knowledge they keep are one of the greatest treasures in the world, making the books about the supernatural even more valuable." Henry added, enjoying how much desire Elizabeth had for knowledge about his world. "What else?" "Well, I came across one very interesting paragraph that says…" Elizabeth hesitated a bit, "that dragons are known for kidnapping young, virgin maidens…" she d
