The blissful weekend had resumed after a delicious lunch. Iris was simply feeling euphoric at the new-found freedom. The weather was mild, perfect for a barefoot walk on not-so-hot-sand along the beach. They walked slowly as Iris closed her eyes when the cool brine reached her ankles. Dom stood watching his mate, he couldn't help himself but stand bewitched by his lovely mate. Every time he looked at her, the need to save her from her evil brother increased. He knew that he was ready to go to war for this woman, whom he was once ready to reject without knowing. That guilt still stung his heart, but he didn't let it ruin the perfect moment. The cool sea breeze teased them as they felt rejuvenated by the change of pace of the recent days. Iris had a soft smile on her lips as Dom went behind her and wrapped her in his muscular arms. They both sighed in the bliss of the moment, needing to stay there for eternity. Finally, Dom nudged her towards the beach where a blanket had been laid fo

"Hello, Alfonso! Did you really believe you had won?" Waai mocked in the video playing on the Android screen. The moment they had brought magically asleep Iris, back into the castle and rested her peacefully in Dom's chambers, he made a beeline to Y's dungeon, only to find a smartphone nestled on a bloody velvet cushion where starving Y was supposed to be. It was this android that had been playing the current video for the past hour as Dom clenched and unclenched his fists, exhaling smoke through his human nostrils and on the thin line of crossing the limit of control. The facts were clear, Y had escaped, and he had inside help, so that meant they had traitors in their midst. How had such important things escaped him or any of his men? The castle was a fortified place of security and protection that they had all called home for so long. How did a werewolf plant spies in here? How did they survive without anyone noticing and for how long? The arrogantly smiling face of Y in the video

The majestic dragon flew marvelously above the clouds, out of sight of ground dwellers, over the lakes and rivers, villages and cities, plains and fields, hills and mountains. Dom hadn't stopped to rest even once, since he had left his castle yesterday after giving the order about Immunity protocol. He was getting tired but his rage and need for a solution hadn't subsided. The weather was rainy most of the day, so it was a safe journey. Dom flapped his magnificent wings and flew ahead towards the mountains hidden in the ranges. His anger was a little in control, but the feeling of his unconscious mate in his arms and her look as she lay limp on his bed was still haunting him. That was not how he wanted her in his bed when they had discussed her staying in the morning. He had a plan. He just wasn't sure if it was going to work. He desperately needed it to work through. His life, his Iris' life, and their life together depended on him succeeding. He flew until his wings ached, but kep

The flight back home was tiring and tedious and full of anxiety, but his father's presence beside him gave Dom a new form of energy boost that he had started to lose. Elder McBlaze was finding flight harder after all those centuries of sleeping like stones, which is why their way back took them three days rather than two due to Dom's earlier desperate speed. The news upon their arrival was not what either of them could have expected to hear at all. Elder McBlaze realized the matters were more dire than either of them could have predicted, but Dom felt unhinged, on the verge of exploding. Instead of how Lady Marie wanted to say it, a frantic Freddie broke it to the arriving party, that when Dom was gone, on his fourth day of absence, Iris was kidnapped! No one could understand how a person could be kidnapped from such a highly fortified castle under so many watchful eyes. On one side, there was excitement throughout the castle at the return of the sleeping predecessor, ex-Alpha of th

>> The Oakwood table was gone. In its place was a well-built beechwood table, not as big but doing the job just fine. Dom sat at the head of the table and the rest of the family members took their places just like they had on the night Iris had her first dinner with them. Elijah took Iris' seat in the meantime. Dom sat with his chin on his hands with intertwined fingers, elbows on the table, waiting patiently for everyone to be seated and silent before he started, "You all know why we are here. Iris, my fated mate, was first poisoned and then kidnapped behind my back, under all your noses. You failed to protect your Alpha Queen. It doesn't matter if you are a traitor or not, Iris is in the hands of the one person who hates her the most on this planet. And I am going to devise a plan to g

The plan was simple and effective with the least possible risks and chances of casualties. Dom had decided to lead the extraction team because if he couldn't put his life on the line for his mate, how could he expect his family members to do so? He decided to keep the company small so it is undetectable, only including Freddie, Gideon, Nathaniel (Clara's husband and delta of the family), Clara, and Lily (to be someone on the outside, ready for the take-off once the job is done.) Lily might not be a very strong dragon-shifter because of their mother's human state while conceiving and birthing her, but she was still a smart girl with many other amazing points to her personality. She may be a little unhinged sometimes due to the imbalance between her dragon and herself, but her brother valued her opinion and trusted her with his life and that of his mate. That is why when she volunteered, despite some protests from family members, Dom allowed her to be a part of the extraction team. N

Everything was a blur. The sights were wavy and the sounds were like random noises in his ears. Dominic McBlaze tried to focus on one of the waving lights in his vision but failed, as his hearing had failed to focus on any single sound and make some sense out of it. He didn't know how long it had been but it seemed like almost a week had passed since Y had captured him. Dom had spent most of his time unconscious under the effects of severe drugs. He was always awake enough to feel every cut on his skin and every tissue being ripped apart before allowing him to heal himself and then repeat. Y was always there in times of his consciousness, to remind him of how he had starved him in his dungeons, and Iris was always left bleeding on the opposite side of the magical transparent wall, as a spectacle for him to agonize over and for Y to mock his defeat. This time was like all the rest. He was barely able to see through hazed eyes, as his Iris lay almost lifeless, barely breathing and con

The day had started peacefully. He might even say he felt a little ecstasy swimming in his veins when he reminded himself of his ultimate plans for the day. He hummed to the tune 'A Hymn to God the Father' by John Donne and his gait got a skip in the step and a few snapping of fingers here and there when he reached,"I have a sin of fear, that when I have spun My last thread, I shall perish on the shore; But swear by thyself, that at my death thy Son Shall shine as he shines now, and heretofore; And, having done that, thou hast done; I fear no more."Akuma Waai Archaíos felt elated, like walking on the clouds, as he chose his favorite suit from his leisure collection for the very special occasion and took his time matching wolf-head studs for the cuffs with diamonds for wolf-eyes. Y danced, having given an altogether different meaning to Donne's metaphysical poetry, and picked up the little female dog he had named 'Mrs. Poodles' simply because Iris had always hated that title fo
