“I was looking for you.” She said. “Really?” He pushed the door close behind him without tearing his gaze away from her. This reminded her of her dream and her heart skipped a beat. Ares stepped closer, his eyes darkening with every step. Ravina kept her ground, despite the sudden tension in the air. “You make it difficult to keep distance and remain a gentleman with such behavior.” he drawled coming to stand in front of her. “You made it clear you don’t want to keep a distance when you…-

Hmm… He wasn’t sure? But the way he looked at her… She shivered. Indeed, he was in a conflict. Did he want to breed with her? Was that the look? That part did worry her. Would he be forceful if she ever left with him? From what she read, he shouldn’t be. Mating should be consented to by both and it seemed like between breedmates consent was important and they respected those boundaries but… she was the enemy. He could simply take revenge on her that way unless… he would be pained by causing…

Malachi couldn’t help but feel repulsed. Not because another man made her feel that way but because he felt like he should have been that man. He wanted to be that man and it made him sick. It was not that way his hands should be on this woman unless to strangle her to death and then bury her with her inventions. Those inventions. He let out a breath of frustration. Ravina watches him confused. It seemed like she didn’t know the part where he could smell someone else on her and know when she was in a…

Ravina had a lot of research to do so she went to the library to spend her day there reading. She wanted to learn more about clans and how they functioned. How was the hierarchy? How much power did the king have? Was there a court and if so which members did the court consist of? She read all the books she could find on the subject. The political structure of the dragons wasn’t as complex as that of the humans. It was simply the royal family who were in control. What kind of person was his mother?…

Ares was losing his mind listening to Ravina trying to convince him and explaining why her plan could be successful. Many times he just wanted to stop her, yell, punch a wall, and just find a way to release his frustration but he wasn’t an emotional man. He decided to build his walls back instead. She wasn’t supposed to be in his heart anyway. What was the point? He would only end up hurting her and himself. Not that she would accept coming with him now after she came up with this plan. She was very…

Ares turned pages to read about breedmates. He wasn’t surprised by the detailed information knowing that the king involved professor Ward in their mission. That would only mean that the man was very competent. The more Ares read the more he felt like this had nothing to do with Corinna. The breedmate information was about female dragons, not humans so it couldn’t apply to her sister but as he read about the male part, which also seemed the pages Ravina focused on from the places she marked, he felt a…

Ares looked around at the destruction caused by the dragons. They were still waiting for a second attack. The black dragons, the Azar clan, and the biggest dragon clan were known to be ruthless. Their previous king, Khaos was a merciless being and now his eldest son Malachi who took over the throne was imprisoned. That wouldn’t be taken lightly. They would not accept this because capturing the king of the largest and the most ruthless clan would be seen as a weakness. Ares had wanted to see Malachi,…

Malachi couldn’t utter the word. He was not going to say it out loud. He would not! “Give me a reason Malachi, because I am not one of your subjects who follow your orders blindly.” He just glared at her trying to contain his anger but God help him… “Oh right. Because I am whore. I shouldn’t do it for breeding right? It makes sense.” She nodded. “Well, I never wanted children anyway so I think we agree on that. I guess I will just enjoy myself. I never thought it could be such a…

Malachi stiffened. He didn’t think it was his brothers but he knew sometimes when enraged they could be reckless. “I am sorry. Was I too harsh?” She said tilting her head. “I am trying to be a little kinder than you were, otherwise I would have first made you watch their deaths and then mocked the way they died.” Malachi felt like he was slapped in the face and before he could think that it was too harsh he remembered that was exactly what he did to her. That day when she remained utterly calm…

Ravina was back in her room and Ester wondered what had happened. “Did you do the experiment?” “No!” Ravina’s eyes widened. Ester’s shoulders fell. “Well, I hope you at least got some warmth.” She did. Ares gave her comfort, but now after all of it, she was left feeling colder because of the thing in the back of her mind. He left her in more panic and turmoil. He left her realizing a few things. Ravina needed warmth more than she cared to admit, but she knew allowing herself to feel…
