There’s no hiding how hard my cock has become. Lust swirls around me in a thick aromatic spice that Raiden will be able to smell any moment. I won’t be able to hide the truth from him now.

I roar to him in response when his hand disappears between her legs, making a sweet cry pour from her body that I want to break, bend, and bury beneath me.

Raiden rips the buttons closed around my neck, staring at the glittering light blue snowflake in the middle of my throat.

“You’re mated,” he whispers, completely dumbfounded. “What the fuck?” he questions with wide eyes that finally meet mine before turning into fiery slits. “What the fuck, Nyx? You mated an elf?” he asks harshly.

I cover his mouth with my hand, glancing around to make sure no other dragons are in earshot. Hanging my head, I get to my knees, a power wave of pleasure almost making me fall again. I’m not sure if I can carry a conversation with him sending me images of him finger-fucking her.

“Shhh,” I hiss, not wanting anyone to hear. “I can explain.”

“Explain? How do you want to explain the Prince of Dragons has mated to an elf and hasn’t told anyone because that means the kingdoms are now joined? How will you explain keeping a secret like this from your best friend?”

“Because my firebond is the elf that killed my father,” I snarl at him, covering my throat in shame. “I had to. We had to because we would have died if we didn’t.”

He sits back on his legs, his wings outstretch, just… staring at me.

The moment becomes uncomfortable. My cock is hard, I’m angry, and every time I blink, I see images of his fingers slipping in and out of her, his silver skin wet with her nectar.

“Say something,” I snarl, managing to get to my feet.

“I don’t know what to say. Are you okay? How are you doing?”

My wings settle against my back, a bit of the weight of the secret I was carrying is lifted and knowing Raiden cares for my well-being— well— that means more to me than I thought it would.

“I’m not sure,” I say honestly, rolling my neck when beads of sweat begin to drip down my throat. “I can’t be here much longer. Our other firebond —”

He catches himself on the table. “Another firebond? Another? Jesus. No wonder you’ve been so damn moody lately.”

“She’s here,” I grumble. “And he is letting me see what they are doing right now so I can’t really focus on your questions when my firebonds need me.”

“We can talk later.”

“Thank you.”

I step toward the window, preparing to fly when Raiden grabs my arm. I turn to look at him and his face is contorted in worry.

“I think it is good that the kingdoms will be united. I think it is good that the war between us will be over. It brings hope.”

“There is no hope for what he did.”

“Elves are loyal creatures, Nyx. Loyal until death. Their word is what they live and breathe by.”

“And dragons aren’t?”

“You know that’s not what I mean. They live by it like a book, like it’s their constitution. An elf’s promise is one of the greatest gifts to have because you know they will fulfill it. I’m saying, what if there is more to your firebond? Fate wouldn’t be so cruel to you to give you the firebond who killed your father without reason.”

“Sometimes Fate doesn’t make sense. Sometimes there are no reasons. Sometimes, Raiden, the world is against you, and you learn to live with the pain of knowing the universe will never be on your side.” I jump onto the ledge and launch into the sky before he can say another word, bursting into my dragon form.

Raiden has always been the most level-headed dragon I’ve ever known. He is rational, calm, and sees our world in such an optimistic way. More often than not, it angers me because I know I could never have such light. Bitter memories darken the chambers of my heart and the only force that makes this organ beat is venom.

“That’s really cynical and pessimistic,” he shouts out of the window, and in my dragon form I manage to roll my eyes. “I will be finding a solution to this!”

I huff my flame from my mouth in annoyance. His damn positivity is like a thorn in my side I can’t reach. It’s always there, fucking poking at me.

Flying around my castle, I reach the boundary, flapping my wings to keep me steady as I stare at the invisible ward. Unless, maybe, if it isn’t too much wishful thinking, that Cailian dropped the wards.

Sending me those dirty images of him and Rarity together might be his evil plan to get me to fly into the wards. No doubt I’d have a few bumps and bruises— a little payback for how I treated him during our mating.
