Shawna’s POV:
So, the dragon left and didn’t come back. It has been hours and now it is starting to get dark. I bet you’re asking yourself, why the hell aren’t you trying to get away? Well, there was a big ass reason why I wasn’t trying to get outta here, and it is also the reason he didn’t have me tied up, nor didn’t even think twice about shifting and leaving me for hours. That reason was because this damn cave was in the motha fucking ocean or sea I don’t fucking know. But all I know is that it wasn’t anything but rocks and fucking water at the bottom no steps no nothing to get in or out. Did this shit make me fucking nervous? Hell yea, how the hell was anybody supposed to find me in a damn cave in the ocean. Not to mention my boys are growing and acting like they are fighting for room in my stomach. Mind you before I got knocked up, I thought I had too much stomach. But they nipped that though in the bud real quick.
It’s like they all wanted to be in one part of my stomach. Which is crazy to me if I may say so myself. Oh, and I’m slapping Lahni in the face when I see her ass too. That bitch didn’t say shit about having cookie cramps from the weight of the babies. I didn’t even know a cookie can have cramps. I thought as I lift my stomach to relieve some of the pressure. “What are you doing?” I heard a voice ask, I nearly jumped out of my skin. “God damnit you just made me pee myself. Shit!” I said breathing hard trying to catch my breath and slow down my beating heart. He walked over and tossed me a bag. I looked in it, He had brought me clothes and toiletries. I didn’t say anything, I just sat and pulled the stuff out of the bags. I would have said thank you but being kidnapped while pregnant kind of cancels out the whole being thankful.
He stared at me with his head cocked. Like he wanted to say something. But instead, just stared. I tried to ignore him, but he was getting on my damn nerves. “What?” I finally asked, annoyed. “You’re human.” He asked, or said I wasn’t really sure. So, I just answered. “Uh yes, that’s what they tell me.” Throwing a little pettiness in my tone. But he missed the sarcasm, “but you are carrying mutts?” he asked with his brows furrowed. “Listen, I’m sure I can’t kill you, but if you ever call my babies mutts again it won't even matter if I can’t kill you or not because I know it would still hurt like a bitch if I remove your dingle berries while you sleep. I said, thinking about using a knife to cut his nuts off while he sleeps.
Just then my arm began to glow. My eyes widened in shock as the dragon moved down my arm and formed a dagger in the palm of my hand. I immediately dropped it and it disappeared. WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?” I said once again jumping and peeing on myself. I shake my head not even embarrassed anymore. Right now, I needed to know what the hell was going on with this tattoo dragon and why did it just come to life on my arm. I looked up at the dragon dude and he just stared at me. Before he walked over and inspected my arm and sure enough the dragon tattoo was still there. He walked back over to his couch and sat down casually. “It looks like you have been chosen as a protectors aid.” he said, closing his eyes like he was about to take a nap.
“What the hell is a protectors aid?” I asked, still having no idea what the hell was going on. “It would seem as if you were chosen to help protect something or someone that the dragon god thinks is very important. You should be honored that he would choose someone so weak.” he said, still with his eyes closed. “Boy I tell you, you’re full of insults today. If I were you, I would sleep with one eye open.” I said, thinking of a blade again and watched it slide down my arm and form another dagger. The dragon opened one eye and gave a small smile.
Oh, so he thinks this is a game. I flipped the dagger and threw it near his head landing directly next to his eye. He jumped off the couch barely dodging the dagger. It again disappeared like before.
I simply smiled as I got up to go into what can be called a bathroom, but it was simply a space behind a big rock with a watering hole that was actually big enough to get in and had warm water, I have no idea why, but I wasn’t going to complain because in that bag was soap and a washcloth. I kinda felt bad for throwing that dagger at him just now. Let me stop lying to yall, that motha fucka kidnapped me. I don’t give a damn what he does for me. I know I can’t kill his ass, even with this weapon tattoo, because I would be stuck up here with no way down and no food. I’m not into killing myself just to say I died fighting. That would only apply if he was trying to hurt me or worse. So far, he hasn’t done it. So, I will just sit and pray to God Lahni, Mina, and Lynn can find me before I have these boys which I really think will be sooner rather than later.
Dradon’s POV:
“We need to find Mina; my mating window is in a few weeks. So, we don’t have time to waste. If I don’t mate her during my window, I will have to wait another year. There is only a few weeks left before it will be too late. Now that Lynx is gone dark it is only me and you left. I said to my sister, we had been hoping that we would bring Lynx back so he could mate with Lynn. Now that leaves the other human. When grandmother first told us that Lynn had called us to help her human friends. It was then that me and Kat had devised a plan to make a deal with Lynn that if we save her friend that she would mate with Lynx once he came back. At the time we just thought he was doing what he has always done to explore the world. But once we found out that He had actually been kidnapped and possibly gone dark our plans had to change.
My dragon had immediately taken a liking to the short human and once we found out that they could mate with werewolves, it spiked my interest. No human has never been able to carry a dragon shifter, because their body couldn’t handle the heat that a dragon baby would need to grow. Most humans would simply burn from the inside. Now that Lynn’s blood was just like the human women, she was the best option. Which is why I called in her debt. I knew she was mated to the wolf but that was of no concern to me. Dragons didn’t do mates, which was a silly unrealistic controlling way to preserve the wolf community. Living as long as we had, there was no reason to fall in love or be mated. It was not needed to create or preserve dragon shifters. When the human showed up at my door, she presented me with the perfect opportunity to find out if she would be able to carry a dragon shifter.
If she is able to carry to term, we will make sure she is protected and will be the carry for our golden dragons. We would never have to worry about going extinct. When she birth two dragon shifters, one of which will be given to Nix, so she would have a dragon baby of her own. Once Mina has provided us with enough offspring, we would simply get rid of her. I have to ensure that no other shifter would have access to her. They would use her to grow their population which would become a problem for the golden dragons who are the strongest amongst the shifter communities. “I understand the plan, but don’t you think this is going a little too far. It seems a little extreme if grandmother finds out she will kill us both.” Nix said. finally sharing her opinion through our mind link. She doesn't speak out loud since she lost her baby during the war and that has broken her mentally. So, when she speaks it's always through our link and never out loud. The only reason why Kat also hears her is because of our blood tie.
The fact that the death of her baby caused that much mental damage that she hasn't spoken a word since, is another reason love should never be a part of the equation. It creates weakness and makes you vulnerable to attacks. “Grandmother would never find out our plan unless someone tells her. The human came to us and offered her services in exchange for us not using Lynn. We have done nothing wrong.” Kat said, as she came to stand next to me intertwining our hands. We have been sleeping together ever since she turned eighteen. I don’t love her. What I felt was because we are connected by blood, nothing more. I needed her to survive. But I think she sees us as more. I don’t correct her; it doesn’t matter because there would never be anyone else.
“Nix you have nothing to do with any of this. You won't be needed until the human gives birth to male.” I said coming to sit next to her on the couch. I know she was hesitant about having another baby. But she understood we needed to do this to ensure that we don’t die out. “Dradon, we need to go to the conference room the alpha has asked us to be present to create a team to find the human women.” Kat said from the door. “Ok, but we need to make sure we are on the team who is going to be searching for Mina. “The other human can do nothing for us because she is already pregnant.” I said opening the door waiting for the women to leave, I close the door and headed for the conference room to rescue the one woman who could save the dragon shifters from extinction.
Conference room: Shadow’s POV: “What the hell do you mean you’re not going to help look for Shawna. Your brother is the one who kidnapped her and my pups. But you are not going to help find your brother?” I said to Dradon who said that he was going to help the team that is going to be looking for Mina. His girlfriend was also livid at his declaration. “Yea Dradon I think your skill will be needed more on the mission to find your brother then our team.” The alpha said agreeing with me. Something was up with him because once he found out that Blaze had entered the entrance to save Mina, he became obsessed with finding Mina. “What the hell do you have going on Dradon, why are you so determined to look for Mina instead of Lynx?” Lynn
A binding contract?Ji’lahni’s POV: Leaning over to whisper in my ear. “Did she just say we shouldn’t be trying to save Mina?” Lynn asked me. See I was trying to be cordial and civil, but as usual people always have to come with the dumb shit. But I am trying, really hard to keep my attitude in check. “Please understand that both Blaze and Mina are important to our pack.” I said, patting myself on the back for saying that nicely. “Excuse me alpha, why are your servants speaking out of term but hasn’t gotten me my water yet. Is this the type of pack you’re running here where you have, your servants speaking out of turn. Where is Luna Summer, she would know how to handle unruly servants.” The other woman that was with them said, she looks like she could be Blaze&rsquo
This can’t be happening.Montego’s POV: This can’t be happening; How could my parents sign away my chance at being with my other half mate? “Montego what do you want to do?” The alpha asked, looking at me with pity. “I need to go back to my pack and figure this out.” I said, my mind racing. I need to talk to my father’s beta maybe he knows about this contract and a way for me to get out of it. My father was a smart man or so I thought, he always made sure what ever contract he sign there is always a loophole and I intend to find it. “Well, that’s a great idea. It will be the perfect opportunity for you to get to know our Kassie and she can meet your family as well.” The councilmen said in excitement. “I feel like you not even trying to read the room. That man don’t wanna be with your daughter, when he has found his other half mate. So why do you think he will want to travel with her let alone have her meet his family? Lastly why would you want to be with a man who doesn’t want
Urrale’s POV: “I can’t believe father would do this to me. He said he would make sure I have everything. I have lost my mate my castle, and Shaid.” I said to my servant Maria who was lying in a bed still unconscious, I was able to use the last of my powers to keep both of us alive, but she suffered a lot of blood lost. I need to try and find father I know he made it out of the realm. I just need to find him and then he will restore me to full strength. I have to convince him that I could get him the twins. I just need something to offer him to restore his faith in me. I just had to figure out what. “Master, what happened? Did we make it out of the realm?” Maria asked, trying to sit up but couldn’t. “Don’t try and get up your still healing. Yes, we made it out. But we have lost everything father has abandon us because we failed, to kill the twins. We need to find him and bring him something that will get us back in his good graces.” I said pacing the floor thinking. “Well, I
Zane’s Beta’s POV: The alpha is dead the dark one has taken over his body. Ever since we returned from the witch’s realm, he has nearly killed all the prisoners in our dungeon and is now planning to start killing members of our pack. I am the rightful leader to the pack until his grandson comes of age. But I don’t plan to let that happen. I need to get rid of the dark one before he kills everyone. I need a plan and I need one fast. “Beta all the warriors are here, like you asked.” My first in command said, stepping into my office. I nodded and prepared myself for the meeting I called behind the dark ones back. Walking into my living room looking at the sad eyes of my men. “I called you all here because we have a big problem. The alpha is dead, he has been taken over by the dark one. He plans to wipe out all shifters, with our help before he kills us. He wants to kill our moon goddess and in order to do that we must all die to weaken her enough for him to kill her.
Shadow’s POV:Day 5 Rane was anxious. We have been searching for Shawna for the past 2 days only stopping to refuel. We haven’t found any sign of Shawna or that damn dragon. Everything that Hawk told me played on repeat in my head. I tried my best to remember everything that happened that day, but I couldn’t remember anything past Hawk telling Shawna that Scarlett could save me. I don’t remember calling Scarlett’s name, if I did it meant nothing. I know I will have a hard time convincing Shawna of that, especially with everything that has happened up to this point. Right now, I just needed to find her and make sure that she is ok and that our boys are safe. I hope that she hasn’t gone into labor. When I asked his brother and sister, why they think he took Shawna. They had no answers, they were just as shocked as everyone else. The only thing that they did mention was maybe he had scented Dradon’s dragon on her, and now thinks she can birth dragon shifters. Once she give b
Flashback: “So, Mylan couldn’t find the rift? I thought she said, she knew somebody who could find it?” Ji’lahni said, sadly. She was happy that there would be two teams searching for both her cousins at the same time. But Lynn just delivered the bad news that Mylan said she hadn’t heard anything from the person who could find the rift. “No, she said, it may take a few days. So, all we can do now is focus on finding Shawna. We could help with the search until grandmother hears back from her friend about the rift.” Lynn said, sitting next to a now crying Ji’lahni. Ji’lahni was feeling helpless and lost without her family. She needed them to be ok, until she could find them, she didn’t want them to be missing for too long. Because in the human world time mattered it could mean life or death. The longer a person is missing the less likely that they are alive and that is what was scaring Ji’lahni. We decided to have dinner in the dining room, because we would be lea
The dark one’s POV:“Do they suspect anything?” I asked my visitor. “No, they don’t suspect no more than what they already know. They know that it’s you who has broken the sacred rule of never walking the earth.” The visitor said. “I don’t care if they know, they would never come for me as long as I’m here. They wouldn’t dare break father’s rule of never walking on earth. What I need to know is, what do they have planned. Those twins are not going to stop me since I was able to push my plans to kill all shifters up. Thank you for giving me the information by the way.” I said turning to my visitor for the first time, since I came to this realm to see him. I closed the rift but didn’t destroy it, because this was the only place that a god could come and go as they pleased. The witch’s castle was still standing in spite of the vampires taking up residence here. “I don’t know, Silene and the dragon king had a secret meeting. I was unable to find out what the meeting was about my source s
