Sindri sat on his back legs and set a paw on each of their heads.
“Please don’t hurt us,” Spence said. “We didn’t know.”
“Quiet!”
They sat still, tears flowing freely down Kiara’s face. Finally, Sindri dropped his paws and stood. “I can feel that you had no malicious intent. You’re lucky. I will spare your lives. But be warned. This is not how the magic is intended to be used. I cannot tell you what might come as a result. I would not take him to the haven. It may not be safe for the others to see him. They may want him dead simply because his existence goes against nature.”
“I won’t.” She was calming down a little now that Sindri had said he’d spare their lives. She was unfamiliar with the magic he’d used to sense their intentions, but grateful for it. Maybe it was something similar to a lie detection spell.
“I can feel the wolf in him,” Sindri said. “It makes him strong. Stronger than you. Too strong.” He turned to Spence. “I suggest you use that strength wisely.”
“I’m so sorry,” Kiara whispered. “I didn’t know.”
Sindri nodded at her. “I know you tell the truth. Do not play with magic, child. You’re lucky it didn’t overtake you and kill you both.”
She nodded again and hung her head.
He gave a final snort, then took off into the night. Spence had been sitting beside her. As soon as Sindri took off, he let out a surprised cry and changed back into wolf-dragon form.
“What are you doing?” she asked, wiping the tears away.
“Oh no. I can’t change back! Why does this keep happening?”
She looked at the light from the moon glittering in his eyes. When Sindri landed he’d blocked the moon with his huge size. Spence had then changed back to human. When Sindri revealed the moon again, wolf-dragon it was. What if there was some truth to the moon thing in all those stories of werewolves?
“Come deeper into the woods,” she said. “I have an idea.”
He followed her into the trees. Once they left the clearing, and the cover of trees was thick enough to block the moon, he changed back.
“What the heck?” he said.
“It’s the moonlight.”
He looked to the moon, then at her. “You think? No.” He got up and walked back to the clearing. As soon as the moon’s light hit him he changed. He came back into the dark of the trees and changed again. “Okay. Well, I guess that’s one side effect.”
She nodded. “That will cause some problems. I guess that’s the price you pay for extra strength and a girlfriend who makes the worst decisions possible. I’m sorry it went like this. I really had no idea. I didn’t think I was tricking the magic. I thought I was just smart to realize he never specified it had to be a human sacrifice. I thought I had done the better thing by not killing someone.”
“You did.” He brought her into his arms and kissed her. “I’m so happy, I can’t even tell you. So what if I need to be careful in the moonlight? Vampires find a way to survive without the sun, werewolves change on a full moon and dragons can’t be seen or people die. We all have our thing.”
“Except that all those creatures don’t exist except dragons.”
“How do you know? If I’m part werewolf and part dragon shifter, then maybe they do.”
“Maybe.” Then a thought came to her. “Oh, no. What if I did kill a person, then? What if the wolf was really just a werewolf who was in wolf form instead of human?”
“No, you didn’t.” He smoothed her hair back. “I told you I can feel the wolf. He’s all wolf. No worries.”
That did bring her some relief. But now what? How did they get him out of the woods without him walking into the moonlight?
“We have to get you to learn the cloaking spell even faster than I did,” she said. “If you can change so easily, you have to be able to hide yourself just as easily.”
“Okay. Teach me.”
She turned to walk towards her bag of supplies and the clearing, but he reached out and turned her back to face him.
“Teach me,” he repeated. “Later.”
He kissed her and pulled her down to the ground to land on top of him. “I’m alive and feel better than ever, so right now, while we have the chance, before anything else goes wrong, let’s take care of that one pesky little problem.”
She pulled her lips into a crooked smile. “You mean that pesky virgin problem?”
“That’s the one.” He grinned back. “Eighteen is old enough, don’t you think? No reason to drag it out any longer.”
“Definitely old enough.”
She grinned and kissed him, pressing her hips into him until she felt him harden. They wiggled out of their clothes and right there in the dark of the trees, on piles of leaves, fully surrounded by nature, they made love for the first time.
She grinned and kissed him, enjoying the feel of her body on top of his. She pressed her hips down and felt that he was already hard. She rocked her hips back and forth as he pressed his up to meet her, and she grew hot with desire as his cock rubbed against her. There were too many clothes in the way, though.
The night was warm and she was already getting sweaty as her heart raced. Kiara reached up and pulled her shirt over her head. It was the first time she’d shown anyone her body, even if she was still wearing her bra. Her cheeks grew warmer as he looked up at her.
But then his lips pulled into a flirtatious smile and he reached up to caress her. He squeezed gently and slipped one breast out of the cup of the bra, then the other. He held them gently in his hands, almost unsure what exactly to do with them. She unhooked her bra and slid it off, setting it beside them on a pile of leaves.
He pinched gently at her nipples, watching her face for her reaction. The sensation sent ripples of pleasure through her and she bit her lip, then leaned back down over him so they could resume kissing.
He ran his hands along her back, dragging his nails softly against her skin. She reached under his shirt and felt his strong stomach muscles. His shirt and sweatshirt were gone a minute later and she let her fingers roam over the hard ridges of his stomach.
She was glad he wore sweatpants. It made things much easier than dealing with buttons and zippers. She hesitated for a moment. She’d never actually touched a dick. Or even see one close up for that matter. She slid her hand under his pants and tightened her fingers around his shaft. His back arched and he moaned as she moved her hand up and down, stroking him.
“That feels so good,” he said.
She felt relieved at that, but wished she’d had maybe a little bit of experience before him. Just so she didn’t feel so awkward. What should happen next? Maybe a blowjob? That seemed daunting, but they’d come this far, right?
She pushed down his pants until his dick was free. She slid down and put him into her mouth. She tried to think of what they’d done in the few porn movies she’d watched. She moved her mouth up and down, pressing her tongue against him.
“Ahhh,” he said, moaning, and gripped her shoulder. “Wait a second, stop.”
She looked up at him and let his hard cock fall from her mouth. Had she done something wrong?
“Come here,” he whispered.
She came back to him, kissing him, wondering what had gone wrong.
He kissed along her neck to her ear and whispered, “Sorry, that felt so good. I almost came.”
She wanted to laugh. At least she hadn’t done something wrong, then.
He yanked at her jeans, eager to get them undone. The snap popped open and he pulled down the zipper. But jeans could only push down so far. She had to slip her sneakers off and wiggle out of her pants. Everything about this felt awkward, and she was sure she wasn’t undressing in a way that was anything close to sexy.
She climbed back on top of him, her heart racing now as much from nervousness as from desire. Was it going to hurt?
“Wait a minute.” Spence slid out from under her and pulled up his pants as he went back towards the clearing.
“That’s better,” he said. He slid his pants down and pulled them off with his sneakers.
She scooted over onto the blanket and laid down. He knelt between her knees, gently pushing her legs farther apart. He looked up at her and gulped, then lowered his face to her pussy. He licked her tentatively and when she moved towards him, involuntarily moving towards the pleasurable feeling, he seemed to gain confidence and pressed his tongue harder, flicking at her clit and in between her lips.
He wet his finger and slid it slowly into her. She moaned and squirmed as he moved it in and out of her. How had she never done this before? She’d been missing out big time. By the time he stopped her head was spinning and she wanted all of him.
He wiped his mouth and came back to her. The look on his face showed just as much nervousness as she felt.
“Just be careful,” she said.
“I will.”
She tensed slightly when she felt the tip of his dick press against her. But he didn’t slip inside her yet. He rubbed his cock between her lips, spreading her wetness around. Then he placed his head at her opening and pushed in the tiniest bit.
She relaxed and he pressed deeper. He stopped and looked at her face. She nodded and he pushed in more until he was full inside her. It didn’t hurt like she thought it would. He stopped for a moment, his body shivering in delight.
“Oh, my God,” he said. “I never thought it could feel so good.”
She dug her fingers into his hair and kissed him. He began to move his hips slowly, backing out of her slightly then pressing in deep again. After a few minutes they sped up and found a rocking motion.
Her body thrummed in pleasure, every nerve on fire with it. She gripped his ass to pull him deeper and he moaned in her ear. They moved together, and she felt the dizzy feeling again. The intensity built in her until she knew what was coming.
She thrust her hips hard against him as she felt the orgasm break over her. She cried out in pleasure, forcing him in harder and deeper as she came. He thrust against her faster and faster until he also cried out, then fell against her in shudders.
He breathed heavily, his whole body trembling just like hers. “Holy crap,” he panted. “I had no idea it would feel that good. No wonder everyone makes such a huge deal out of it.”
“I know,” she breathed back. “That was amazing.”
“Thank you,” he said.
She chuckled. “You’re welcome?”
He laughed and dropped his head to nuzzle her neck. “I love you.”
“I love you, too,” she said. “But I think we have a new problem now.”
“What?” He picked up his head to look at her.
“Well, we’re going to have to do this all the time. I don’t see how I’ll be able to keep my hands off you.”
He pulled his mouth into a crooked smile. “You’d better not.”
Chapter 10
They’d had fun together before, doing magic in the woods, but now the time Kiara and Spence spent together was even more amazing. Not only did they still do magic, but now they could also be dragons together. And after their first time in the woods they often snuck into each other’s rooms after a night of magic and had a different kind of magic in their beds.
Kiara was on top of the world with joy. Life had never been so amazing. They had discovered that Spence’s wolf-dragon made him a superior shifter in almost every way. He was not only stronger and faster but his blood was warmer, which made things like attracting prey easier. He flew better, moved more quietly and his magic was even stronger than hers, no matter what form she was in. And somehow the wolf stayed with him, so that even in human form his senses were heightened. He almost needed the moonlight issue to balance him out. Kiara often called him ‘OP’, a term for a character who was overpowered.
They’d even learned to handle the moonlight thing. If he stayed covered fully, usually with a hoodie, gloves and long shirts and pants, and faced away from the moon, he was okay. Since his magic was stronger he’d learned the cloaking spell faster, and could already hold his longer than Kiara could. At times she was tempted to feel jealous. But he never bragged and he only ever used his abilities to benefit them both, so she had little to be jealous about.
“Okay, so what’s the plan for tonight?” he asked. He brushed the tip of his soft tail under her dragon belly and made her squirm.
“You better stop that, or we’ll never get anything done.”
He sighed. “Are we good on cloaking? I kind of want to work on my fire breathing.”
“I don’t know how useful that will be.”
“But it’s cool.”
She laughed. “It is.”
His head snapped to the right and he froze. “Someone’s coming.”
They both changed back to human form and he quickly put up his hood and turned from the moon. They cloaked themselves to be safe.
“It’s Erica,” he said.
Kiara sniffed harder, but in human form there was no way she was going to smell whoever it was. “You sure?”
He nodded. “I’ve got to find a way to convince my dad to stop worrying about what’s going on in the woods. Find an animal to blame the damage on or something. That has to be why she’s out here.”
“Or we have to find a new spot. We keep killing plants and stuff in the same area.”
“Yeah, but this is the best spot, and it’s not like he won’t know if we go somewhere else and destroy a bunch of stuff there.” He gestured around to the crushed plants and fallen trees that ringed the clearing. “We should keep our damage to one area instead of ruining another one.”
“Yeah, but they keep looking.”
“Let’s just charm her. Make her not want to look.”
She hated the thought of using magic on her friends. It was one thing to use magic so their parents didn’t question why they were in the woods so much or didn’t hear them upstairs fooling around, but against her best friend? It had been necessary to use magic to keep Erica from getting her feelings hurt over Spence choosing Kiara instead of her, and she supposed this was necessary, too, to keep her safe. “I guess we don’t have a choice.”
They moved in her direction, but then there was a loud snap and a shout of pain. It was definitely Erica’s voice. They exchanged glances and crept faster in the direction of the sound.
When they got close enough to see they found Erica lying on the ground, clutching her ankle.
“Do you smell that?” he whispered.
“What?”
“It’s broken.”
“Huh?”
“I can smell the marrow inside her bone. She broke it.”
She shoved his shoulder lightly. “Freak.”
He grinned at her and kissed her. “I’m going to go help her.”
“Me too.”
“No.” He stopped and turned to her. “Think about it. She knows you’re a witch and that you do magic out here. If she knows I was out here with you she’ll figure out that I am, too, and it’ll just make things worse. Plus, I’ll probably have to carry her out and I don’t think you could lift her.”
“I guess.”
“Stay close and stay cloaked. That way if we need you you’ll be right there. You can act like you were just doing magic out here as a witch.”
“Okay.”
He uncloaked himself, then called out, “Erica?”
“Spencer!” Erica said. “What are you doing here?”
“I heard you yelling. Are you okay?”
She looked down at her foot and shook her head. “I think I twisted my ankle or something. It really hurts.”
He went to her and picked her up, carrying her in his arms. “I’ll get you home.”
“Thank you. I can’t believe you were in the woods. Are you still searching for the animal causing the damage? My dad said it’s be
en worse the last few weeks.”
“I know. My dad did, too. Yeah, I was out here looking.”
Kiara followed behind them, walking carefully to avoid making a sound as she stayed cloaked.
“What’s with the gloves?” Erica asked.
“Oh, I… like to pick plants and stuff and sometimes I get prickers, so I have these gloves to protect my hands.”
Kiara almost snorted in laughter. He may have gotten better at a lot of things, but making up lies on the fly was not one of them.
They were getting close to the edge of the woods. Spence ducked to avoid hitting his head on a low-hanging branch, and his hood fell back. Kiara saw and gasped, then ran to him, but it was too late. The moonlight touched the back of his neck and his skin turned to scales and fur.
Erica landed hard on the ground when Spence dropped her and screamed. She scooted back, trying to get away from him. Spence moved around frantically as his body grew in size, trying to find a patch of darkness to change back to human form, but it was too late. Erica had seen him fully and was watching with a terrified look on her face as he tried to escape the moonlight.
Kiara stuck out her hand and touched him, cloaking them both. When he vanished from sight, relief flooded over her. Only recently had she been able to cloak someone else as well as herself and she was still working on increasing the strength of the spell.
“Hold your cloak,” she whispered, and pulled the large blanket from her bag. She’d started carrying it for this reason, and because having sex on leaves and twigs wasn’t the most comfortable thing. She threw the blanket over his tall dragon head, and in seconds he had changed back.
“Crap, crap, crap,” he said.
Kiara stared at him, not knowing what to do. Erica had gotten to her good foot and was hobbling away. “Should I go after her? You certainly can’t.”
He let out a string of profanity under his breath. “I can’t believe this. Is she going to die now?”
“Uh… I…” She glanced back to her see her friend hopping and looking around for the suddenly vanished wolf-dragon. She had forgotten about the curse in their panic to get him hidden. But she remembered how sick Spence had been after seeing her in dragon form. Her stomach twisted and her chest burned painfully. Not her best friend. And Erica wasn’t a witch, so Kiara couldn’t give her the power to shift even if she wanted to. “Probably.” Tears pricked at her eyes and her throat burned.
