The Draglen Brothers - DRAKEN (BK 1) (25 page)

“Oh, he can sense you Cess, and your
questions are many.” He chuckles. I think privacy does not exist in
this family, or world, more than likely. “Yes, your arousal is
sensed as well.” Shit, I need to learn how to control
that.

“Thanks for letting me know that,
Showken,” I say, rolling my eyes. I sip from my glass of wine, and
continue to look at the people all around.

“Any time, Cess,” he says,
smiling.

“I think you need a woman, Showken,” I
say.

“Really? Well, Cess, I’ll have you
know I have women all the time, but if you’re referring to getting
married like Draken, I like dating. I’ll always be single,” he
says, and instead of smiling he has a strange look on his face. I
wonder if he really does mean that? I’ll ask Draken later. Oh, he’s
flying down, I can’t wait till he is back by my side. I put my
glass down as he comes and lands, so smooth. He looks so powerful.
I can’t wait to get him back to the room. His sending me heat like
that has me feeling all kinds of feelings. I stand to watch as he
begins to change back. It’s a lot faster when he changes back into
human form. I watch in amazement this time. He is greeted with a
wrap, and starts straight for me. I smile, wanting him back. He
finally reaches me.

“Princess, are you ready to go take a
tour of our castle?” Draken asks.

I’m so happy right now. I have my
Princess with me and I’m taking her on a tour of the castle. Her
new home.

“Draken, it’s so big and beautiful. Do
you all stay in the castle?” she asks.

“Yes, the castle is our home; none of
us would ever leave. It’s your home, too,” I say, pulling her into
one of the many rooms. I need to touch and kiss that soft skin,
pushing her up against the wall will allow this.

“Draken, what are you doing? What if
someone comes in?” she asks. What she doesn’t know is that this
section is ours, for when we start to have children.

“No one will come in, now I need a
taste,” I say, dropping to my knees. Her face reddens quickly. I
like to keep her on her toes.

“Draken, right now?”

“Mmmmm, yes, Princess,” I reply,
placing my hands on her ankles, moving in between her legs, I grab
each leg, making sure her thighs are on my shoulders. She slides
down the door as I hold her backside, and her treasure is all my
pleasure. She must have wondered why panties are never going to be
laid out for her. I like to take her without fussing with panties.
I feel her hands on my shoulders, as she squeezes I growl. I love
pleasuring my Princess.

“Draken, I . . . ohhh . . .
I-”

“Say it.”

“Draaa-”

“Say it,” I command.

“Draken,” she whispers, which makes a
very loud growl exit my mouth. She knows I like her to scream,
she’s scared of being caught.

“Louder!”

“Draken, please. Someone may hear us,
what if . . . ahhh . . . I-”

“LOUDER!”

“DRAKEEEEEN!” she yells as she
climaxes. I hold her there as she comes down and her shaking stops.
Placing her feet on the floor and keeping her steady, I rise and
share her treasure with her, giving a long, deep kiss and enjoying
her moans. She has finally found her voice.

“Draken,” she says, panting slowly.
“That, I want to pleasure you, too.”

“Okay, but come, we have to go see my
sister. She has been asking why you are not coming around. Don’t
worry, I see the frown on your face. I reminded her of how she can
sometimes not be a nice dragon,” I say, arching a brow.

“Well, I don’t want to go if she is
going to be, I don’t know, weird or scary.”

“She will never do that in front of
me. Beauka has been hurt and holds a lot of pain, but I think when
she finds a love, then it could be safe for you to be alone with
her. Until then, never,” I say, hoping that she is reassured,
besides, I have given her great protection in her ring.

“Well, I guess let’s go see your
sister,” she says, making a weird face. I love how her emotions
just come out. When we come to Beauka’s section, she is in the
hall, looking beautiful as usual. Beauka has the same color hair as
I do, but with blue-green eyes. She is very smart, intense and
dangerous when she wants to be.

“Hello, my brother, I’m so glad you
are joining me for some tea,” she says. Princess looks hesitant.
Maybe I told her too much, but I will always tell Princess the
truth.

“Hello, my dear sister,” I turn,
pulling Princess closer. “You have met Princess
already.”

“Yes, I will call her by what comforts
her. Hello, Cess, I’m glad you are here for tea. I’m sure Draken
has told you lies about me, but I assure you I’m the calmest person
among everyone in this castle. Come, let’s have some tea and
dessert. I love desserts,” Beauka says, turning and waving us into
her living space. Beauka has a huge living space, she has been the
only girl for years, so she might be friendly, yet my sister can be
jealous. We sit and she pours the tea, not taking her eyes off
Princess. I growl, and she nods her understanding that she is not
exempt when it comes to Princess.

“So, Cess, how are you adjusting to
our land?” she asks.

“Well, it’s very pretty and magical. I
love everything about this place,” Princess says. I smile, hoping
that they will be good friends, Cess will need female
companionship

“Yes, it is. So, is my brother good to
you?”

“Oh yes,” she blushes. “He is such a
dream to me, I love him very much.” That makes me smile. Beauka
makes us each a plate of cakes, and fills our cups with tea. I
don’t like tea, but to make my sister smile I will drink
it.

“Thank you, sis, it looks amazing. Did
you help decide on what desserts?” I ask, making conversation. I
love my sister, but she and I don’t always see eye to eye,
especially when we fly. That is why I avoid flying with Beauka.
Domlen can handle her so much better.

“Yes, Draken, you know I make all
decisions about myself,” she smiles at Princess. “Do you plan to
give Draken heirs?”

“Oh, well we haven’t discussed
children yet,” Princess says, lifting her cup and taking a drink. I
should have warned her about Beauka’s tea. She usually puts in her
own specialty. It will make you drowsy if you’re not used to it. I
notice Princess’ eyes are getting droopy. I think it’s time to take
her to bed.

“Well, sister, Princess is getting
tired. I’ve showed her tons of the castle, so I think we will be
going,” I say, realizing Princess needs to rest.

“Of course, brother, take care, Cess,
and maybe we could spend some girl time together,” Beauka says,
with a huge smile. We leave Beauka’s living space. When we are in
the hall, I hold Princess in my arms and, closing my eyes, I take
us instantly to my room. I don’t like instant transport, as it can
make us weak as dragons. I lay her on the bed and she falls into a
deep sleep. I watch her as she sleeps peacefully. Beauka’s tea will
not do any harm, it just puts you to sleep. That is what she likes.
I call for Showken, and he arrives outside the hall.

“Showken, Princess is sleeping,” I
say, arching a brow. “We had tea with Beauka,”

“I don’t have tea with our sister, she
is really crazy. So, what do you need, Draken?” Showken says,
shuddering just thinking about Beauka’s tea.

“I need to talk with Velca. I need to
apologize for having her life waste away. I don’t want her to feel
she wasn’t good enough. I just want her to understand Princess is
my love. So, I need you to arrange a meeting with her and her
mother, as her father is in holding. He crossed me with Princess,
but I would like to speak with his wife and daughter, with Princess
present, of course. Can you arrange?”

“Yeah, sure. Although you owe nothing
to anyone. She is still going to be pissed, but I see why you are
sending me, as I can help convince her with my charm,” Showken
says, winking.

“Showken, don’t seduce her. I just
want a meeting.”

“Okay, Draken. I want to ask you
something.”

I study Showken for a second. Then I
see he looks serious.

“I want to know are you worried about
getting bored with Cess, I mean you love her, but we are talking
forever. Plus, you have not said anything about taking on a Giver.
Which is common knowledge and is accepted,” Showken says. I control
my beast from growling at him.

“I don’t want anyone but Princess, you
don’t understand because you have never loved. When you do, I will
remember this conversation, brother, at your wedding. Now, go . . .
” I pause, smelling an unfamiliar scent in the castle.

“Do you smell that?” I take a long
breath and I’m sure someone is in the house that should not
be.

“Yes, I do smell that, it’s another
dragon for sure, maybe a few more,” Showken says, as his beast
comes forth. Something is not right.

“I need to go to Princess.” I turn and
open the door, and see a woman with long, light-purple hair. I
growl, and she changes right before my eyes into another dragon.
FUUUUUCCCKK! I growl, Showken standing, glaring. Hawken and Layern
rush in the room soon after.

“Draken, Velca’s mother and her
brothers were on the grounds. I didn’t get a fix on them, because
Velca’s mother has your smell for some reason. I did, however, feel
an enormous amount of anger towards Cess. I’m sorry, Draken, they
are no longer in Cortamagen, but are in Meltawen. You know we don’t
really get along with the family that rules that land, so if we go,
it will mean war.” I try to focus on what Layern says, but I feel
Princess’ fear. I will find her.

“Layern, war it is. I want Princess
back tonight, and if the entire land goes up in flames, so be it.”
How could I not protect her? “KILL EVERYONE!” I yell. I hope
Princess learns quickly about her ring.

“Draken, they will all die, we
promised to protect Cess, and we have failed. Forgive us, brother.”
I see the hurt in my brothers eyes. Everyone’s beast is going to be
released. Beauka comes in, spitting fire.

“Who dares come to our home and steal
my new sister? I fly with you tonight.” Beauka turns and walks out.
“LETS GOOO!” she yells. I close my eyes and we are in the garden
where I proposed, I transform along with my brothers, and for the
first time, Beauka. GRRRRRR, who has touched MY Princess. You will
die! I’m coming to get you, Princess, hold on.

What the hell is going on?
I remember tea with Beauka and Draken, yes, Draken hugged me. I
went to sleep. A woman is standing over me, speaking another
language, but I can tell she is angry. I slowly open my eyes, and
see another pair of eyes staring fiercely at me. I become
immediately
scared and
now I have to pee, really badly.

“Umm, who are you, and where’s
Draken?” I ask, scared of the response, please Draken, if you can
hear me, I’m scared.

“You are the little human who stole my
daughter’s right. She was supposed to be queen one day, now my
husband will die, my daughter is broken and you think you will get
a happy ending? It won’t happen, human. I hate humans, and it will
be a pleasure to kill you,” she snarls. She nods to a man who is
standing next to her, and he opens the gate of the prison where
she’s holding me captive.

“Wait, you’re going to kill me, I had
no idea Draken was supposed to marry your daughter, but if she
wants him I will back out,” I say, swallowing and hoping she will
take my deal. She grasps the man’s arm and they walk towards
me.

“You stupid little human, he will
never let you go, he marked you. You have his eye color. He was
going to die for you and I hoped he would, but you showed up and
caused us more embarrassment. I want you on display, for even
though I know he will kill me, he will want death, too, after you
perish.” Her eyes take on a glow that makes me want to pee right
there. The man comes and grabs my arm, squeezing tightly. That is
when I hear the growl.

“You should not be touching me, I
think it’s going to get bad for you,” I say, looking at the man. He
grins and I see fangs. What is he?

“You bring her,” the woman says to the
man, who grasps my hands together in one of his, and drags me
behind her.

“Please, let me go. I don’t know
anything about this. I will go home. I promise she can have
him.”

“Quiet,” she growls. The man drags me
to the center of a room where a group of angry people has gathered.
Please, Draken, hurry, I don’t want to die. I hear the growling,
and it’s getting louder and more intense. Then I hear Draken’s
voice in my head, “Princess, use your ring.” Use the ring? Get your
ass here, Draken, this is a ring not a . . . the ring did move from
a dragon, covering its body. I don’t know how to use the fucking
ring. All these people around me are speaking in that language,
yelling at me. All of this because he decided not to marry her
daughter, then a woman with long black hair comes running over to
me.

“What have you done, mother?” she
says, concern in her eyes. This woman is beautiful. Then I
remember. She just called the one who says she is going to kill me
“Mother”. This is supposed to be Draken’s wife. I’m not nearly as
beautiful as she is.
