I have this strange sensation rush over me, blistering heat consumes every piece of skin. I feel like I am boiling from the inside out. Sweat coats my skin and my hair is saturated and stuck to my face. I am so hot I find it difficult to breathe, having to really focus on each breath I took forcing myself to breathe. Rolling over, I feel delirious, like I have been drugged as the entire room shakes violently around me.
I look toward the bed, but all three are still sound asleep. My mouth is so dry my tongue is sticking to the roof of my mouth. Getting on my hands and knees, I try to crawl to the bathroom. My knees getting stuck inside the oversized shirt making me fall forward with a thump.
My hands are glowing red, so hot I think my skin would melt off at any moment. I grit my teeth through the pain that is searing throughout my body from my head to my toes. My entire body becomes consumed with fiery heat. Using the end of the bed, I pull myself to my feet hanging on to the bedpost. Waiting for the room to settle as I am hit with the most severe vertigo. The room is slanting and I feel like gravity was against me.
Looking at the bathroom door, I stagger toward it, hitting the door frame as I try to grip onto it. My legs feel heavy, forcing myself to remain upright. Suddenly, my feet go out from underneath me and I feel like I am falling backwards. Only to find Matitus had grabbed me, cradling me against his chest.
“What’s happening?” I try to ask, but my words don’t sound like my own. Blinding light makes me squeeze my eyes shut tight as they flick the bathroom light on. I can hear voices; they are distorted and are hard to understand. Cold water washes over my skin makes me gasp as my body temperature plummets and my eyes snap open with shock. My skin cools under the steady stream of water.
I lean heavily against Matitus, and I feel my breathing becoming easier as I feel my core temperature plummets.
Matitus is sitting on the shower floor with me draped across his lap. All three shower heads turned, cooling my temperature to bearable levels. Feeling hands grabbing and pulling at me, I am forced to lean forward as I feel the shirt being lifted off my head.
I try feebly to stop them from stripping me but can’t put up much of a fight when I can’t feel my limbs.
“It’s just the Dragon heat, Elora. Stop thrashing.”
I wasn’t even aware I was thrashing; I couldn’t feel my body, only the burning as it consumed me.
“Make it stop, make it stop!” I screamed.
“We can’t unless we mark you, it will stop, you just need to ride it out,” Silas says.
“Do you want us to mark you, to make it stop?”
I shake my head or at least I hope I did and then I feel nothing, absolutely nothing as darkness wrapped around me taking my sight, my taste and feeling, as the darkness swallows me.

Loved loved loved this book. Thank you x...
Personally love the story/book. Loved reading it online and would love to purchase the book. Is it a little darker than I would like? Yes; however, it doesn’t mean I wouldn’t reread it. I also think that there is a lot more story to be told but I understand this being in the genre of “erotic fantasy” and trying not to stay too far from that. Would love to read a mythical fantasy/action version though. Would love to get closure of Aldin and how he feels about his families past, or if he even knew. Or diving deeper into Silas past as to why he is as angry as he is. Surely there were other events leading up to Blaire’s appearance in his life that had made him the villain he is. I would love more explanation as to how Taylor came back into the picture after betraying the kings. Just so many unanswered questions but also a really captivating read ♥️ thanks Jessica 🙏🏼...
😐 story was ok but I’m iffy about the romanticizing of the amount of abuse in this book and how forced the bond is. She doesn’t want them. they and the bond are forcing her to accept it. Also she keeps sacrificing herself for Abigail fine whatever but agrees to be mates with the 3 monsters? Like c’mon now wtf happened to all her fight? Can’t she be a bit more selfish? I’m just saying I knew this would happen eventually but the way it happened and when it did felt hella forced disappointing and a huge let down for me. By rating for this book dropped down to 0 instantly. Couldn’t the marking session happen when she was on better terms with them? Finding out Matt betrayed her trust and Silas threatening to kill her friends just to 3 seconds later get all horny with them felt kinda sick and out of place. Like did the mating have to happen instantly couldnt they give her some time to cool off first? Or even apologize? This book brushes off stuff way too easily and it truly bothers me. Feels like I’m wasting my time investing into the arguments and taking sides only for it to be resolved without so much as an apology they just move on and pretend it didn’t happen. It pisses me off reading their arguments knowing it won’t go anywhere and no development cause they don’t discuss any fucking thing. Makes me wonder why everyone is praising this author so god damn much. There’s a lot wrong with this story and it starts with the letter S. I’m disappointed adult women are the ones writing awful stories like this one. Comments and reviews justifying the abuse makes me wonder how they find entertainment in such violence to say it’s the best book they’ve ever read. That’s disturbing to think about...
Perfect!...
