“So the Aziza’s never started the war?” Pluto shakes his head,
“No, the Helcates and the Dragons did, the Aziza bloodline was collateral damage in a war they knew nothing about till it started, Helcate’s jealousy started the war, Dragon’s were told of Zena’s alleged betrayal and struck a deal with the Helcates, they would kill the Queens mate as warning to back off from the Aziza’s in exchange for the oracle”
“Why did the Dragon’s want the Oracle?”
“Because she could see the future, they wanted her as a tool to be used, why do you think the Dragon empire thrived and was the wealthiest kingdom, it was because of the oracle, she had control over the witches,”
“But in the Dragon history books its says the Aziza’s started the war when Blaire cursed them” I tell him.
Pluto shakes his head,
“The war started many years before that, just the Aziza’s were unaware of Helcates scheming”
“How do you know all this?” I ask because this was vastly different from the stories everyone was told.
“My mate was one the Helcates advisors, she never agreed to what they were doing, we planned to run away together, she knew of their plots to take over and told me, I tried to warn the dragon king at the time, but he cast me out as a traitor and then Blaire was killed and the war started and my mate was killed, leaving me stuck in that state”
“Well, that was an interesting story” Matitus says from behind me making me and Pluto jump. I look to him and Pluto puts his head down looking away.
Ignoring Matitus, I get back to the task at hand and what I originally came here for. Matitus taps my shoulder wanting me to hop up before sitting back down and pulling me on his lap.
“So back to the dragon’s, how many of them are in the caves in the mountains”
“I can’t be sure maybe thirty at most it depends, a lot of them are too weak to move desiccated in a paralytic state, unable to move because the mutated form won’t allow it”
“Can you communicate with each other in that form?”
“Kind of, its hard to explain, it like being stuck in two mindsets, human and dragon, more instinctual, a lot of them have gone crazy and I am afraid even if you bring them back, they won’t be able to function. Only those of us that could get around have managed to keep their marbles sort of”
“What do you mean sort of” Matitus asks.
“For the most part we coexisted together, flocked together. But a lot of them have been driven mad from the loss of our mates, I don’t think it would be advisable to shift for me anymore, my dragon isn’t exactly sane without my mate anymore, I am but I think that side of me is damaged beyond repair lost without her”
I nod trying to understand, “But you can communicate with each other?”
“Sort of on a basic level, to hunt together like a pack, but other than that not much, well not until Lincoln came back, he was in human form returned a few weeks ago, I am assuming that is because of you or the Helcate he spoke of” Pluto asks.
“So this Lincoln told you about us?”
“Yes, he wants to capture you and the Helcate for the Dragons to feed on, bring them back and start his own kingdom, he knows the Helcates are responsible for the war and he wants revenge” Pluto says. Matitus growls but not before we hear a roar from outside that leaves Pluto shaking as Silas storms into the barn, his body barely fit as he shifted, he lunges straight for Pluto, but I throw myself in front of him, Silas talon stopping just before it come down on me.
“Stop that shift back, now Silas” I yell at him. Pluto was hiding behind me terrified.
“I mean her no harm, I can help…. Please my king I would never hurt her, I owe her my life” Pluto begs.
“And your life is what you will pay with, if any harm comes to her” Matitus warns him.
Dragus walks in underneath Silas not all fazed that he was walking under our very pissed of mate. He hands me a tray, before retrieving a wooden box, and placing it next to the fire before taking the tray and putting it on it as makeshift table.
“Settle down Silas, I have been with him all night, all he has done is speak of owing his life to her, he hasn’t once mentioned harming her” Dragus says ignoring him, Silas sticks his head out the door and I hear the cracking of his bones as he shifts back before walking into the barn.
“You left her with him” Silas accuses,
“She would be fine, when are you going to realise, Elora can handle herself?” Dragus tells him pouring some tea in cups before handing one to Pluto and myself.
Pluto relaxes sitting on another box and I pat his shoulder letting him know he was safe with me, he looks up at me grateful but Silas growls at him before pulling me away making me sit on his lap. Matitus was watching Pluto with curiosity.

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!...
