  Sky was soft. I took a bite of the fish and watched as she crossed the room with an armload of plates. Soft, but strong. I couldn’t deny that her softness did things for me, too. Seeing the way she cared for the young males, even when they behaved as selfish younglings, made me think of the way she’d be with our younglings. She would love them, probably too much. They’d probably end up soft but strong like her. For some reason, that made me smile.

  I huffed and shoved the rest of the fish into my mouth. It seemed like I was the only person she wanted to be direct with. In my opinion, she should’ve kicked the nasty women out long before me.

  After my food was gone, I stayed and waited for her to come back around to me. It appeared as though she was intent on ignoring me, though. I wasn’t used to the feeling, and I found myself wanting to stand up and demand her attention. I was her mate. Who could be more interesting than one’s mate? Human women didn’t make much sense to me. I had a lot to learn.

  Time crawled and I was too old to start letting time get to me, so I stood up and approached Sky. She barely looked at me and it drove me crazy. “Female, what is wrong with you?”

  She walked away and dropped a drink off before coming back to where I stood. “Don’t call me female.”

  “You should be nicer to your mate.” I crossed my arms over my chest, thinking that she’d realize that I was right.

  Instead, she raised her eyebrows at me in that infuriating way that told me I was about to see just how much attitude she could dish out. “I thought I asked you to leave.”

  I frowned. “I am not leaving. Not without you.”

  “What are you just gonna sit there and watch me work all day?” She tried to walk away, but I caught her arm.

  “Little one, stop. We can go home and get back to the good stuff. It was much more fun than anger.”

  She bared her teeth at me, letting me see that she possessed all of the strength that I could ever want in a mate. I didn’t doubt that she’d try to bite me any moment. “You’re stressing me out. I can’t focus with you here. And I’ve had enough of your judgmental attitude. About my kids, my house, my job. This is my life. You walked into it. If you don’t like, there’s the door. Please use it.”

  “Your kids are troubled. Your house is falling down. And you don’t have to work anymore. You have a mate who is a very wealthy dragon.” I was getting tired of fighting with her. I just wanted sex and some cuddling with her. I’d never tried cuddling before but it seemed like something I would like—as long as it was with her.

  “You are not a fucking dragon!” Her raised voice drew the stares of the people around us and a man came out of the back to scowl at us.

  Fed up, I caught her arm and pulled her to me. “We will go to my castle and solve this right now. We will not have disagreements and resentments between us”

  Her friend came over and gave Sky a look. “Marcus is getting pissed. Go take care of whatever you need to and I’ll cover for you today.”

  Sky pushed me away and took the woman’s hand. “Are you sure? I just need to…”

  “Yes. Go. You can cover for me tomorrow. I’m going to a specialist about the thing.”

  “Shit. Okay, of course.” Sky hugged her friend and then glared back at me. “Okay, let’s go, dragon.”

  I took her hand and pulled her out of the café. She was still trying to get her apron off, but I was in a hurry to get this resolved and out of the way. I was tired of her doubting me.

  “Wait, Beast! How are we getting there?”

  I gave her a wicked grin. “Flying.”

  She stopped walking and scowled at me. “I’m over this.”

  I easily scooped her up and tossed her over my shoulder before speeding out of there. I hurried back to her house, her bouncing all the way, and then slipped into the water behind it.

  “What are you doing?! No! Don’t go into the water; are you crazy? What am I saying, of course you’re crazy!”

  Her heart pounded a thunderous beat against my back as I went deeper still. “We won’t be in it for long. I just need to get to the other side. We need more privacy.”

  She fought me, but I just moved faster, at one point, swimming and dragging her with me. When I got to the other side of the water, I carried her through the tall brush and stopped only when we reached a clearing.

  She was livid when I put her down. “What is wrong with you?! The water is dangerous!”

  “I’m dangerous.”

  “I’m starting to agree with you.” She turned away and ran her fingers over her wet hair. “Look, Beast, this has to stop. I have enough problems with my life as it is. I can’t….I mean, you’re hot as Hades and for some damned reason, I get so turned on around you I can barely think straight, but you obviously come with a whole shit ton of issues. This—whatever it is—between you and me, is the last thing I need. It’s the last thing the boys need. I’m going to go home, Beast. I’m done.”

  I left her standing there with her arms folded over her chest and backed away far enough to not crush her when I shifted. Then, I stripped my clothes off and winked at her before allowing my dragon form to emerge.

  The feeling was always refreshing. Slipping into my dragon form was pure power and strength. Black scales covered my oversized body, hard as diamonds, matte and edged in gold. They created quite the magnificent sight, if I did say so myself. I stretched my long, leathery wings out and whipped my tail. Lifting my head, I released a puff of fire just for show and, of course, to impress my female, and then looked down for her reaction.

  She stood far below me, her mouth hanging open, her eyes wide. Ha! She was impressed. I knew it. She appeared amazed by what she was seeing. If I expected her to scream, I’d have been wrong, though. She moved closer.

  Pride reared in me. People didn’t usually move towards me. I was terrifyingly large and I radiated power that intimidated most. My soft, strong mate, though, she moved in closer. Her hand stretched out and she stroked the scales on my foot.

  “Holy shit.”

  I chuffed, wishing for the first time that I could laugh in dragon form. I wanted to talk to her. Eventually, when we’d fully mated and been together for a bit longer, we’d be able to communicate through our telepathy as dragons could with one another. Until then, I’d have to get creative to communicate with her.

  I knelt in front of her, resting my head on the ground and looked back at my neck trying to coax her to crawl on. I’d never had someone ride me before, but it was a first I was looking forward to. I belonged to her as much as she belonged to me and I wanted her to experience my world, a little taste of it, anyway.

  She gave me a wide eyed look. “You want me to crawl onto you?”

  I chuffed again and nodded my head.

  “Holy shit. This is insane.” She did as I wanted, though. She crawled onto my body and her legs straddled my neck. Her arms wrapped around as far as they would go and her face pressed against the back of my head.

  I had the inane thought that I may have to get her some sort of saddle to keep her safe if it was something we wanted to do very often. I didn’t want to chance her getting hurt if she slipped, and the way she felt astride me, I knew I would want to do it often.

  With that thought in mind, I lifted into the air slower than normal so as not to startle her. I went higher and higher, until I’d appear just a large bird from the ground. Sky’s heart pounded against my neck. She smelled of fear, but under that fear, I was shocked to find that she scented of arousal. I had to smile. That was my female.

  Sky

  The truth that Beast wasn’t actually some hot but pathetic crazy man like I’d thought sunk in more and more as we soared through the sky. The moment we landed in the open swamp by his house, I knew what I wanted. I’d known it in the air, too. Flying so high above everything, looking down at the world like it was this tiny thing, it had terrified me, but also left me invigorated. I wanted to touch the man again. The dragon was hypnotic and astonishing, but I wanted t
he man back under my fingers so I could give in to what my body demanded.

  I slid off Beast’s back and splashed into the water forgetting all about snapping alligators and poisonous snakes. I had a dragon beside me. Surely, he’d scare away any piddly little gator or copperhead. The dock was just a few feet away, and I didn’t waste any time getting to it. I started to hoist myself up and felt hands wrap around my waist lifting me out of the water.

  I spun around and came face to face with Beast, now a very large, very sexy, very naked man. His handsome face was wet and wild-eyed. His dark hair flopped over his forehead. We stared at each other for a few seconds. I suddenly saw him in a whole new light now that I knew he wasn’t crazy. Maybe the world was crazy, I mean—dragons! But he really was who and what he claimed. And, I wanted him like I’d never wanted anyone or anything before. I wasn’t exactly sure how to go about it. Things like passion and seduction were all new to me. It suddenly seemed as though the entire world was new to me.

  He looked at me with a concerned expression. “Are you—”

  I decided that, like him, I would just take what I wanted. Before he could finish his sentence, I grabbed his face, stood on my tip toes and kissed him hard. Not enough. I jumped up and hooked my legs around his waist. He caught my ass in his hands and squeezed as I kissed him harder, slipping my tongue into his mouth. I wanted to make him feel the way I’d felt when he kissed me. Nipping and sucking his lips, I let myself go.

  He was naked and as I moaned into his mouth, I stroked my hands over his shoulders and back. I dug my fingers in trying to pull him even closer to me.

  The big man who harbored a big dragon that flew through the sky and who bragged about how powerful he was, stumbled because of me. We went down in a heap, Beast catching me so I hit the wooden dock with barely more than a slight bump. He stared down at me with those gold flecks in his eyes glowing brighter.

  I thought about how they matched the gold on his big dragon body. He was stunning. In each of his forms I was intoxicated by him.

  “I want to consummate our mating, little one.” His voice was gruffer, just above a growl and it sent shivers all over my wet body.

  I locked my fingers in his hair and dragged his mouth down to mine sucking his bottom lip gently. Then, I moved to his ear, nibbling on the lobe. “What are you waiting for?”

  I wasn’t even sure how it happened, but I was suddenly naked and my work clothes were floating away in the bayou, but I didn’t care. I was so focused on the feeling of Beast resting his naked body against mine. I felt the heaviness of his cock pressing against my thigh and moaned. I should have been frightened. Or, maybe embarrassed to have never had sex before. It was time. I was going to lose my virginity to a dragon on a boat dock. If that didn’t beat all! And, it felt right, so I didn’t even stop to second guess it.

  Beast must’ve read my mind, though. He stood up and held me in his arms, tightly against his chest, while heading towards his house. “Bed. I will take you to my bed.”

  I kissed his neck and whispered in his ear how much I wanted him while he walked. Pulling at his hair and doing my best to rub my chest against his, I felt like a fire had been lit in me. I knew how good he could make me feel and I wanted more. I wanted to make him feel that good, too.

  “Fuck. I can’t wait, Sky.” He settled into a big chair on his patio and positioned me on top of him. “I need to be one with you.”

  Sitting on his lap, my thighs spread wide open, I was completely on display. His eyes raked over my chest and then my pussy, drinking me in. The way he looked at me, I’d never felt more beautiful. I wanted him to look. I felt like I’d gone wild. I stretched my arms above my head and bit my lip as he growled.

  His big hands captured my breasts and tweaked my nipples before one of his hands trailed down my stomach and cupped my core. His palm pressed against my clit and his fingers played against my folds. “Are you sure you’re ready?”

  I nodded. “Yes. Do it. Please”

  His fingers dipped lower and spread my folds. The tip of him pressed against me and I held my breath. As his head pushed into me, I gasped at how amazing it felt. The pressure of it was intense as more of him slowly eased into me. My body stretched and pulsed around him. Holy crap. He felt incredible.

  “Okay?”

  I nodded and then cried out as I was filled even more. I gripped his shoulders and blew out a rough breath before forcing my body down on his. Sinking until my thighs rested against his and I could feel him in what seemed like every single part of me. He was fully inside me and I wasn’t sure whether I wanted to beg him to be still or beg him to start moving.

  My heart pounded and when I met Beast’s eyes, my world altered. For a moment, I felt every crazy thing he’d been telling me down to my very soul. Mate. Dragon. I was meant for him. We were made for each other.

  His eyes glowed, the gold flecks shimmering. His hands gripped my ass and as he sat up, his shaft hit different nerve endings and I released a loud moan. His mouth captured mine, his tongue invaded my mouth and danced with mine, devouring me, my whole body was heading towards an orgasm that I didn’t understand.

  My body tightened and a fire bloomed in my core. It spread to my stomach and limbs until it reached my fingers and toes, as though pure pleasure was consuming me. It was almost painful in its intensity until Beast started moving. The friction of him moving out of me and back in caused the burning to twist itself, turning to ecstasy. A tsunami of exquisite bliss rolled and crashing against the fire in me, neither of them being hindered by the other, each wrecking me in their own way.

  Orgasms had never felt that way with my vibrator. Even the ones Beast had given me with his mouth didn’t compare…nothing had ever felt that way. I felt like I was soaring above my body, flying. I had major doubts that I’d ever come back down.

  I followed Beast. When he thrust, I rolled my hips into him. It felt right to my untrained body and the growls that he released let me know he liked it. With my body in turmoil, I desperately needed him to feel the same.

  Beast wasn’t just staring at me with glowing eyes, though. When he gritted his teeth and thrust into me harder, I noticed that his teeth had grown longer, sharper. The bare skin of his chest rippled between black and gold shimmers and his normal tanned flesh coloring. Gold veins ran through his skin. His shaft inside of me felt longer, harder.

  It all just made me hotter. He wasn’t in complete control of his body. Something was happening to him, just as it was happening to me. I gripped his shoulders and rode him, my body demanding more, demanding release. Harder, faster, I cried out and moaned his name while he hammered into me from below.

  One of his massive hands came up and I saw that the tips of his fingers had lengthened into sharp claws. I should’ve panicked. I should’ve been afraid. Even as he gripped my hair and pulled my head to the side, I rode him. Even as he leaned forward and those sharp teeth flashed as he opened his mouth, I rode him. When those teeth sank into the flesh of my shoulder, the fire in my body won. A mix of burning, intense pleasure and pain overtook me.

  Every single nerve ending in my body stood up and screamed. Electrical impulses surged through me and I screamed as my orgasm began to shudder through me. That fire raced through my veins, feeding into my core that tightened like a vice around Beast’s swelling erection, and into my shoulder where I could feel Beast sucking at me, tasting me. Feeling like I’d split into a million pieces, my body tightened in on itself until the waves came rushing through, dousing everything in a pulsing, throbbing sensation of pure ecstasy. I came like a freight train on top of Beast, milking his cock until he shot his seed in me, a wild roar ripping from him as he yanked his teeth out of my skin and fell back into the chair, my blood dripping from the corners of his lips.

  I watched him through heavy lids as my orgasm continued.

  Sky

  I came and then I went, out like a light. I passed out on Beast’s chest and didn’t wake up until the smell of roasting meat ti
ckled my nose. I didn’t want to open my eyes. I was on a cloud. It had to be a cloud. Nothing else could feel so soft and luxurious.

  “Hello, beautiful mate.” Beast’s low voice came from somewhere in the room and I couldn’t help but finally open my eyes to find him.

  Standing in the doorway to the room, he was backlit. The only light in the dark room spilled in from the living room behind Beast. He looked bigger, more demanding than ever. I could see that he was naked, the backlit silhouette of his hanging shaft blush-worthy.

  “Do I pass inspection?” He sounded amused, lighter than I’d ever heard him.

  I sat up, bringing the blanket with me, and bit my lip. “What time is it?”

  “Late. The sun went down an hour ago.”

  I gasped. “The boys!”

  He stalked into the room and knelt beside the bed, his hands finding the blanket and slowly pulling it down. “I took care of them.”

  When I gasped again, he chuckled. The sound was so low and gravely that my pulse raced and tingle shot through my veins.

  “I did not mean that I ended them. I would not hurt the young males, mate. They’re mine now, too.” His finger trailed down my neck, over my shoulder. When my skin tingled there, he smiled. “It’s rare for a dragon to find his mate. My brothers here are overjoyed for me and they are celebrating. Cezar is a very good dragon and is quite fond of younglings. He has welcomed the males to his castle. They are excited to stay with him and with your blessing, he would like for them to stay a few days longer. Cezar is very set on the ways of this world. He will take them to school and cook them nice meals and care for them in any way they require.”

  “Oh…” I stuttered. “Uh, y-yeah, sure. He has my, um, blessing. You’re sure Nick and Casey are okay with it? And that I can trust this Cezar?”
