The princes tightened their jaws.
I wanted to stop Elvey from goading them, but I was afraid it would only make things worse. Currently, I wasn’t my former mates’ favorite person, especially since they’d always been extremely jealous of Elvey. Even though they didn’t care for me now—judging from the cold expressions on their masked faces—whatever I said or did would only irk them more.
Tianna, however, wouldn’t let the opportunity to stir up more trouble pass by. She glanced over her shoulder at the dragon princes. “Oh, did you know he screwed the former whore you shared?”
“Stop it!” Blaze snapped, his eyes burning.
Iokul squeezed his shoulder but Blaze shrugged him off.
Tianna frowned in great displeasure.
“How was your night last night, princelings?” Elvey wouldn’t let it go, either. He winked at them. “Mine was fabulous, to be honest.”
“Shut your fucking hole, Elvey,” Rai said. “Shove your fucking gloating where the sun doesn’t shine.”
What a jerk he turned to be.
How could one’s personality shift overnight? Had their tenderness and adoration toward me all been lies? They were colder than the cursed masks on their perfect marble faces.
Were all lovers so fickle?
But as long as they hadn’t slept with that viper, I might still be able to fight for them.
“I used to have higher hopes for you three, princelings,” Elvey said. “I thought at least you’d try to act like gentlemen when you were around Her Majesty Queen Daisy. Only one day with the fraudulent queen, and you’re already being corrupted.” He clicked his tongue. “What a shame. But it’s not too late to repent and beg the forgiveness of the true queen. Stay on the wrong side like those idiots and cowards,” he gestured toward the Fae on Tianna’s side in disdain, “and you’ll suffer the same demise.”
“Careful, Elvey,” Tianna said. “After I deal with my arrogant niece, I’ll deal with you.”
“I dare you to try, Tianna,” Elvey said coldly. “For centuries, you shackled me, but you never truly owned me for even a single day. You’re a failure and a fraud.”
Tianna’s nostrils flared with smoke. “When I come after you again,” she promised venomously, “you won’t have a bone left. I’ll peel your flesh off and feed them to the wild dogs.”
“Touch a hair on my mate’s head, you’ll suffer a worse fate, aunt,” I snarled. “Even death will be too good for you. You’ll beg for it, but filth like you won’t get it.”
“That was a very good and effective promise, my beloved queen,” Elvey said, and then grinned at my former consorts again. “So, did you boys have fun last night? You haven’t really answered me. What did you do anyway?”
“It’s none of your business,” Blaze said. “Just fuck off.”
Elvey tilted his head. “And if I don’t?”
“Then we’ll teach you some manners,” Iokul said. “You and your whore should not talk to us. Don’t even look at us.”
Tianna snickered.
Before we’d come to rescue Elvey, the ice dragon had been Elvey’s strongest sponsor. He’d accepted Elvey first and easiest among his brothers.
And he’d just called me a whore.
“You three are deplorable dicks,” Elvey hissed. “You don’t deserve her. Daisy is better off without you.”
Rai moved like a flash and punched Elvey in the face. Not expecting that, Elvey staggered back.
“No!” I called in horror and rose from the throne.
I didn’t want any of them hurt, even though all of my former mates deserved it.
“Stop it!” I shouted. “Whoever sheds the blood will be punished by the force of the Challenge.”
“Oh, don’t worry about them, little niece.” Tianna laughed merrily. She wanted them to fight. She wanted the dragon princes to kill Elvey. “We can’t brawl like them, but the four of them are the variation in the Challenge, a loophole and a catalyst. My princes can kill Elvey and suffer no consequences.”
