I nodded in agreement and continued to look over the map. To the East of the continent was a place called Nahas'fa, led by a King named Soopian. I wondered if these were the same Green Draygons that were to be blamed for the Hars. Beyond that was the Goorian ocean that connected this continent and another one. It held the Kingdoms of Cariissan: Black Draygons, Shonian: Red Draygons, and Vroo: Yellow Draygons. And underneath each Kingdom was the name of their rulers. At the top and bottom were two extremely small continents much like the Arctic and Antarctica continents on earth. What fascinated me the most was it looked like one land was ruled by a Queen. "This is amazing!" I exclaimed. "I want to learn everything about your world!""Sire, we spoke of having someone tutor Mara on the laws, traditions, and way of the people. Your Queen must know her subjects," Erik reminded him gently."You should teach me," I told Erik happily. "After all, I haven't seen you in 10 years. I would love

The hard lines of anger around his forehead and mouth did not hide his worry. I remembered those lines very well; I had seen them up close and personal one night when I had walked home late from the park with a few of my friends. I had known my parents weren't going to be home. So instead of heading straight home after dark, I had walked around with my friends, enjoying a ten year old's sense of freedom.By the time I had made it home, it had been close to my bedtime, and I thought my brother was going to blow a vein in his forehead. It had taken me a while to understand that his anger was just a cover for how worried he had been about me. Erik had yelled and stomped around the house for hours. He went on and on about all the things that could have happened to a ten-year-old girl.Though my parents had grounded me for my stunt, it was my brother that had made the biggest impact on me that day.And it was that look and that tone that made me pause to listen to him now."What can I do to

Erik bowed once more. -I leave my sister here in your care, Magnus. Thank you for helping her learn the ways of our people. -Nerrian bowed back. -I will see she is kept safe, Champion. -My brother turned to me and gave me a look that warned me to be careful despite the Sorcerer's words. He left the room and closed the wooden door with its signature creepy squeak once more.I tried to quell the urge to chase after Erik and force him to come back. I chose instead to focus on not fidgeting uncomfortably.-Be calm, Lady Mara. Though I know your brother is concerned about your safety. As he should with a traitor in our midst. You are safe here. - Nerrian told me gently.I took a deep breath and forced myself to relax a bit. "How did you know about the traitor?" I asked him.He stepped closer and tapped my head. -Speak to me from here. My spell only works with mind speech. -I sighed reluctantly, not wanting to encourage this way of communicating.-You must understand. This is normal for u

-That's archaic. - I scoffed. Nerrian just shrugged. -The Sororians are still doing it. Daughters are nothing more than a tool to increase that male's status. - Nerrian explained. I shook my head in disgust. -Why? --Well, this goes back to that time. When the King's Uncle took the Princess to his lair he mated and impregnated her. This was the beginning of the fall of the Sororian's monarchy. -My eyes widened as I became engrossed in his story. A picture formed in my head and began to play like a movie. That's when I realized he was showing me this story more than telling me.-Once the princess came back mated and full of child her father became enraged and wanted to behead her mate rather than see her giving herself to someone 'below' her. -I felt her pain and anguish deep inside me.-To save him and her child, she ran away through the portal with him. He was the last to know the secrets of the portal. With the princess gone, The King of the Sororians declared war on the Torshari

The sun was setting over the Sororia Mountains when a knock sounded at the door."Enter," Nerrian hissed in Draygonian.I was still reeling, trying to figure out how I would remember all the words he had already taught me. All I could do was cross my fingers and hope that my talent to learn the other words would give me an advantage.The door opened, and Treddian stepped in bowing reverently to Nerrian.Treddian hissed too fast for me to understand."Speak slowly," Nerrian instructed him.He hissed something else then translated his words in my head. -She is still learning.- "Good evening, Magnus," Treddian repeated slower so I could understand."Magnus Nerrian, the King wishes his mate to join him for dinner," Treddian told him.Nerrian's voice rumbled in my mind translating the words I didn't understand. I was so proud of myself for starting to distinguish the separate words. Even if it was only when they spoke slowly. "Very well," Nerrian replied to him, then turn to me. "Come bac

"Excuse me?" Tohr asked quietly. "I believe, I said no," I repeated, unfazed by the growing tension in him. "I do not believe I asked a question or made a request, Mara," he ground out between clenched teeth. "I do believe. However, I gave you my answer to your order," I told him daringly.Tohr advance on me, the fury in his golden eyes almost caused them to start sparking. "You will watch how you speak to me, little human. I am your King! And when I give you an order, you will follow it," he growled. He turned to Erik and hissed something at the wide-eyed man, who immediately hissed something back. Out of nowhere, Tohr let out a roar that echoed, making the glass in the windows rattle. I scooted a bit towards my brother, feeling the rage that laced the roar sending a lance of fear through me. Tohr's jaw was clenched so hard that it was twitching while his eyes elongated, taking on his draygon's pupils."Fine," he snapped, then stormed from the room with a dense puff of smoke fol

My stomach did a flip-flop. Even though I denied this submissive behavior, the command in Tohr's voice made me quiver, and it had very little to do with fear. I slowly walked towards him, feeling the air growing heavier as I stepped closer and closer to him. I stopped a few feet away and just watch him, waiting anxiously.Tohr was not willing to let even that much distance between us. He moved closer then circled me like a vulture around its prey. He leaned in and sniffed the back of my neck. He growled again, a sound of displeasure if I had ever heard one."You smell of another man, girl," he growled. "Strip." I gasped in shock. "What?!" "You smell of another man," he snapped even angrier. "How? Why? What? I don't understand what's going on," I admitted. "You're my Mate. My mate should never smell of anyone but me. Should never be held by another but me. It took all my control not to kill your brother on the spot. And the only reason why I didn't was that he is your brother. But i

He moved further down until those teasing lips found one hard nipple. His tongue licked and teased the overly sensitive bud. My back arched wantonly, my body silently begging him for more. He chuckled softly, bringing me out of my stupor for a moment, and I realized that I wasn't really being silent at all. My pleas were loud whimpers, and my nails dug into his wrists as I tried to break free so I could force his head down further on my aching nipple. He took pity on me and latched on to the hard nub sucking it deep into his mouth, licking, nibbling, biting hard only to soothe the sharp pain with a quick swipe of his tongue. I was drowning in the fire, and even the slick leather rubbing against my clit was not enough to dowse it. "Oh god… please," I whimpered. "Yess, little one. I want you to hear you come," he whispered against my chest. "More… oh god, please, please, more," I pleaded.He transferred my wrists to one giant hand, and the other slid down my body, sending goosebumps
