“You are hot,” she stated, her eyes trailing down over his firm stomach and below.
He was big, too. On his knees, her legs spread around him, he leaned down to kiss her some more. Violet instinctively pushed her hand between them, wrapping it around his hard shaft, feeling him pulse under her touch. She loved that feeling of control, of knowing he would do whatever she wanted right then.
It just so happened that what she wanted him to do right then was her. Eventually the rocking of her hips against him and the whimpering as he teased her incessantly got the point across.
“I’ve never seen you like this,” he murmured into her ear, hips pulled back, the tip of his cock pressed against her opening, feeling her wetness pooled there.
“We’re just getting started,” she replied, thrusting her hips up at him, capturing as much as she could. Her walls groaned in protest at the sudden object between them, but moments later they relaxed, and pleasure flowed freely after that.
They lay rocking against one another, barely speaking for an unknown amount of time. It could have been five minutes, or an hour, Violet didn’t know, and she didn’t care. Her entire world, her entire focus, was on Ivore and the lovemaking going on between them. She swept her up in a tide of good feelings, promising in words and actions to never let her down.
“I love you,” she whispered suddenly, the words catching her off guard.
Ivore stopped kissing her, resting his forehead against hers, staring at her even as his hips thrust slowly into hers. “I love you, Violet Walker. My mate. My everything.”
She shivered.
“Are you cold?”
“No. I just like the way you said that. It sounded…permanent.”
Ivore’s face lit up. “That’s because it is.”
“Good.” Another thought occurred to her. “Ivore?”
He had just started to thrust some more, but now he paused completely. “Yes?”
“What about…um. You know. Kids? Can we? Is that a thing? I know you’re mostly human, but um, is your…well…you know?”
Her love chuckled, an interesting feeling when he was inside her. “Oh yes, everything is very much compatible. The change doesn’t occur until puberty. Now, if you don’t mind, how about we finish, ah, practicing, then we can talk?”
It was her turn to laugh, and she pulled him back down to her. “Only if you promise me one thing?”
“Anything for you.”
“Not that you need it, but—” she moaned as he filled her completely with one smooth motion. “But we’re going to do lots of practicing to make sure we get it right, okay?”
“I think I can handle that. Now hush.” To ensure she did he kissed her some more.
Moments later, she lost all ability to speak as Ivore truly took control.
Epilogue
Ivore paced back and forth inside the remains of what had been Malkin’s office.
The site was still closed off due to the ongoing investigation. He had yet to hear an official explanation about how several stories of the building had been coated in ice, but he bet it was a good one.
“There has to be something here,” he muttered.
Nearby both Cowl and Caine were sifting through the remains. Most everything was ruined, either shattered by the ice or reduced to sludge as it melted.
Caine stood upright, kicking aside more rubbish. “You’re positive of what he said?”
“Yes. He said that the drugs were a test batch. That they came from ‘somewhere else.’ But he died before he told me who.”
Cowl snorted in disgust, tossing rotting papers to the ground and joined the pair. “At least we know that they aren’t widespread. But there still has to be someone connecting Malkin, Liam, and whoever was behind all this.”
Liam was the infected dragon that Cowl had fought not long after they were all first defrosted. It was their first clue that the alien Outsiders were somehow able to communicate.
“Well, let’s keep searching.”
Ivore had his suspicion of who it was, as did his brothers he thought. But until they had any proof, anything actually tangible, there was nothing they could do about it. He marched over to where Malkin’s desk had lain, kicking aside the wooden remains. Most of it exploded under impact, but his foot rebounded off of something distinctly solid, and most certainly not metal.
“Hey guys,” he called, “I think we missed something in the desk.”
Reaching down, he peeled back the wood to reveal a metal box about as long as his forearm and half as wide. It was perhaps three or four inches deep at best. It had been encased in wood, some sort of secret compartment they hadn’t noticed.
“What is it?” Caine asked, coming over.
“A desk safe. Hidden inside the back wall. I think.” The remains were tough to identify what had been where.
“Well, let’s open it.” Cowl crouched excitedly at his side.
There was a lock, but metal froze easily and he shattered it, sliding back the top.
Inside were some papers, a few stacks of money that they quickly appropriated—they were dragons after all—and several access badges and keys. Ivore’s shoulders slumped. “Dammit. I thought we had something here.”
“I think we do,” Caine said, reaching into the box and lifting the keys and badges out. He tapped a finger at the name of the facility on the badges. “Anyone recognize that?”
Heads were shaking all around.
“Were none of you paying any attention when Colonel Mara explained about the Outsider that was taken prisoner and then freed by someone on the inside?” Caine shook his head at his younger brothers. “This is the same place.” He started to sift through the other papers.
Ivore’s jaw dropped. “Holy shit. So Malkin’s men…” He looked at the access badges more closely. “Shit, it was Jake who let the Outsider go. Someone gave Malkin access to do this. So that his son could be inside the facility. But who?”
“General Knefferson.”
He looked sharply at Caine. “We don’t know that for certain.”
“It’s a pretty big coincidence, don’t you think?”
“Of course I think so, brother! But just because the guy is an asshole doesn’t mean he’s betraying his entire country. Why would he do that?”
“Money.”
“You can’t prove that.”
Caine started to respond, but stopped as his eyes scanned another of the papers. “Still doubt me?”
He turned the paper around. It was a receipt of funds transfer. And in the top left corner was a logo they were all very familiar with. The Central Defense Command.
General Knefferson’s office.
