“What else do you see?”
“The stars?”
“And?”
“Um…I don’t know. Darkness.”
“The sky is dark, but the moon shines bright, Peggy. You are my moon. My heart is dark, but you fill me with light, joy, and happiness. This is because dragons don’t fall in love the way humans do.”
“You don’t?”
“Dragons have soul mates, Peggy, and I believe that you’re mine.”
I should jump down and runaway.
I should flee.
I should escape while there’s still time because this has to be the wildest thing I’ve ever heard and this guy can’t be for real.
Only, he is.
He’s definitely for real.
The craziest thing?
I believe him.
“I know,” I whisper, and I kiss him, too.
Chapter Twelve
Cameron
Peggy tastes like sunshine.
Rainbows.
Strawberries.
Happiness.
She is everything I never thought I was meant to have and more.
Suddenly, I think I understand why the idea of mates is so important to the dragons. It’s because part of me was missing, and I had no idea until now. Half of my heart was broken off, lost to the world, and I didn’t even realize it until I found it.
Until I found Peggy.
She kisses me over and over, running her hands over my face and through my hair. I don’t mind her curious touching. It’s endearing, and it’s turning me on more than it should.
The truth is that I’ve never had a mate before, so I’m not exactly sure how this entire thing is supposed to work, but I’m filled with a deep sense of peace I’ve never felt before. I’m filled with the knowledge that somehow, everything is going to be just fine.
I’ve found my true mate.
Together, we’re going to be able to conquer the world.
Soon, we’re going to have to deal with Lucky and figuring out a battle plan and determining how we’re going to move forward. We’re going to have to fight for our lives, most likely, and we’re going to have to discover a way to work together and move forward once this is over. No matter what happens, it’s going to end, but I’m not scared anymore.
Because I have Peggy now.
