After Nazneen left with Malachi, Ares returned to the sea looking for the strange woman. She had spoken inside his head. He could still not believe it. He had heard her voice clearly. He looked around for her, seeking answers. How could she talk to him? What was she warning him about, and what did she mean when she told him he needed to learn his abilities? "Are you looking for me?" Her voice suddenly came from behind him. He turned back, and she came closer, her steps barely making a sound. "Where did…-

Nazneen had stepped forward to put herself in front of Ares but he moved her back and placed himself at the front instead, following the woman with his whole body as she moved around. "Telling you who I am won't help you know who I am, but you can tell what I am." Ares looked her up and down. "What do you plan to do with the dragon?" She asked, nodding toward Nazneen. She spoke as if Nazneen couldn't understand their language. "What do you expect me to do?" He asked in turn. She sighed as if she could…

Her heart skipped a beat. What did she want to do? She loomed over him, her eyes drinking in his bare upper body. She had many ideas and his scales grazing her inner thighs gave her even more ideas. Nazneen wanted to tease him, run her lips over his chest but he wouldn't like it. He didn't like her type. Human's were different. She released his wrists. "Nothing," she said. A small frown settled between his brows but he didn't attempt to do anything now that he was free. Nazneen pushed her hair back…

Nazneen flew to the nearest sea that the river led to. Since she found the trace of blood ending at the river, she guessed that he had swum to the sea. Landing on the rocky beach, she stared ahead at the glistening water reflecting the moonlight and the stars. The waves were gentle and soothing, and she heard something else in the distance. A calming melody coming from far away and fading into the wind. Ares. Where was he? How did he even take himself to the river with that broken leg? From the trail of…

Ravina was unusually tired. She never thought of going to bed and wanting to sleep because of her nightmares but now she had hope after having a few good night sleeps. She was oddly thinking of her pink bed sheets and... Malachi. Yes, he would be warm too. Heat rose to her cheeks and she fought hard not to remember the embarrassing mention of her body. "How are you feeling?" Georgia asked. She had been at Georgia's home, being her physician self again. A few dragons needed some help and although she…

Princess? Nazneen could vividly remember the day she arrived at Ares' mansion. The maids had been asking him about a princess and why he didn't bring her. It could be another princess but she was already starting to question things last night when this woman showed concern for her man. She wanted to think it was from a human to another human but she had also stared at him at the party. Nazneen didn't want to believe it but her gut was telling her to dig deeper. Something was going on. The tea boiled…

Ravina was falling asleep when she heard Malachi leave. She told herself to get up and see where he went but she was so tired from being awake the whole night, bending over that bed, lifting, bandaging, and working for hours that her body refused to listen. She didn't even open her eyes, and the darkness took over soon. She managed to sleep well, without nightmares or strange dreams, and when she woke up, the room was bright with the sunlight pushing through the windows. She shifted and almost groaned in…

Ravina sat with her back to Malachi and held a shawl to her bare chest while he took care of her wounds. Her entire body was still on fire and the damp cloth he used to clean her wound was soothing against her burning skin. She wanted it on her face to soothe the heat on her cheeks as well. "I am sorry," he suddenly said. Ravina frowned. "Oh.. it is not your fault. I just don't feel it sometimes." The pain. When he stopped she first thought that it was because she kept pushing him away or fighting…

Malachi had never been overcome by such a strong need. It was as if he became possessed. The scent of fertility, his mate, and arousal made the beast in him awaken. The strong lust mixed with frustration, anger, possessiveness, and jealousy that he had tried to hold back now all made him burn. He shifted, placing her on the bed with him on top. He held his weight off when she winced slightly and he remembered her wounds. Ravina opened her eyes and stared at him with a flushed face and dilated pupils. She…

"What happened to your fellow dragons?" Malachi asked the captive. He recognized him from many years ago when he was younger but he hadn't seen him since then. "You should focus on other things, King Malachi. You welcome humans and other strange creatures into our realm. You have bigger things to think about." He spat. "What other creatures?" The dragon rose from his seat and came closer to the cell door. His eyes burned into his. "You don't even know." He shook his head with disappointment.…
