The Blood in the Dragon

Chapter 25

Updated

Cali’s P.O.V

The next day I had everything planned out, I already had the hair and blood, now I just needed to get the other ingredients, mainly rosemary, sage and a few other items. I left the castle and went out to the gardens, collecting the things I needed, but just as I was going back into the castle I bumped into Zoey, one of the younger dragons.

“Hey, what are you doing out here?” She asked me, looking at the things in my arms.

“I just needed a few things for something I’m working on.” I replied and she nodded and carried on doing whatever she was doing. I smirked the whole way thinking about what it was I was working on, but I was so deep in thought that I wasn’t looking where I was going and bumped into Polly, who nearly made me drop everything.

“Woah there, why are you in such a hurry?” Polly asked, annoying me.

“I have something to do in my room, okay.” I replied, frustrated about being questioned twice in one day. They all know I’m brewing something up, but they have no idea what it is and by the time they figure it out it will be too late, so why can’t they just mind their own business. Polly rolled her eyes and walked away from me. I knew that she wasn’t really bothered by me as she was heading to training. Polly and I couldn’t be more different, she wanted to be captain and one of the top guards to protect the pack and her family, whereas I wanted to be Queen and rule over everything and everyone, having them obey my every command and whim. I finally managed to make it back to my room without bumping into anyone else and as soon as I got inside I closed and locked the door. I went over to the small table and pulled out a black kettle and the book that the black witch gave me. I mixed everything together, in the right order the book said, first the hair and blood, then the rosemary and sage, then the last of the items could all go in together. I poured it all into red wine and mixed it together, like the witch suggested to make it less foul tasting. I carried on reading the book and saw that I had to wait until the full moon before I could get both of them to drink the potion. I would have to hide it away until then, so I put it on the shelf in my room and then pushed it to the back where no one could see it and placed a large photo in front of it. Lucky for me the full moon was in three weeks, so I wouldn’t have to wait long and then on the night I would just pour the wine in the glass with the potion. I would just tell them that I made wine and wanted them to try it to tell me if it was good or bad, that I was just trying out something new. I smiled to myself at my own genius and then I saw myself in the mirror. I was covered in dirt from being in the garden and getting those ingredients. I went into the bathroom to take a shower, but as soon as I got in there I smelled my mate's scent. I ignored him and stripped out of my clothes, then got in the shower and turned the water on. I began washing the dirt off me, but the whole time he was there and I knew what he was going to do and I wanted, needed it right now. Adam got in the shower behind me and turned me to face him, then he picked me up and held me with my back against the wall.

“So, did you get it done? How hard was it to make?” Adam asked and I smirked at him.

“It wasn’t so hard to make, getting by the nosey ones was the hard part, but I now have to wait three weeks for the full moon before I can use it. I have to get them to drink the wine and I’ll have to come up with something to tell them so they won’t think I’m trying to fool them.” I replied and Adam smirked.

“Good job, babe. Everythings going well so far, but let’s not chance it, so don’t act like your trying to do anything, be nice and respectful, then when the time comes have them drink it or better yet, just give them the bottle and tell them to enjoy it, that its a gift from you as a peace offering. They will buy it and drink the bottle.” Adam said, but I shook my head no.

“They are smarter than that, Adam, trust me they are. I’ll figure something out, now come on, let's get out of here. The water is starting to turn cold and I don’t feel like freezing.” I said, but Adam smirked and dunked me under the now cold water.

Liv’s P.O.V

“Hey, I just saw Cali with a load of weird s**t in her hands. I know she’s brewing something, but I have no idea what it is, so just be careful, okay..” Polly said, running over to Nicole, Rachel and I. She was running late for training, which was unusual for her, but now we know why.

“I don’t care what that little b***h is brewing up, as long as she leaves me and my family alone.” Nicole replied and we all nodded in agreement, but I had a bad feeling in my gut.

“Come on, let's get started with training, we’re going to mix it up a bit today as Aquila and Allison aren’t here.” Nicole said, smirking a little. Oh Goddess, what did they have planned this time? We started off running laps and doing all the other warm ups as usual and then we started on the hand to hand combat again, but this time it was two one one and another was the referee. I stood there against my opponents, Polly and Nicole, while Rachel stood back a little.

“Alright, ready, GO!” Rachel announced and straight away they both started circling me. Nicole was the first to attack and quickly grabbed me, but I flipped her over on her back and then Polly came up and put me in a headlock. I flipped her and kicked her legs from underneath her. We carried on sparring for some time and by the time we were done all four of us were exhausted. We were all lying on the grass, resting and trying to catch our breath after the gruelling training session when a large shadow came over us and when I looked up I saw Adonis standing over me.

“You have all done a great job, but I do have some good news for my three favourite sisters.” Adonis said and all three girls started laughing.

“Adonis, we’re your only sisters, so that makes us your favourites whether you like it or not. That’s the rule and you know it.” Polly said, making me laugh as Adonis shook his head at them and smiled.

“Yes, yes, I know. Do you want to hear this good news or not?” Adonis asked and they all quickly nodded.

“Right then. Polly, if you really want to be the captain of the guards then you got the job. These guards need to be trained again, so tomorrow will be a double shift. The night shift will train first and when the day shift comes in then they will train. Nicole, you will be the captain of the warriors, who also need more training, so the same goes for you as far as the training schedule goes. Rachel, you will be training the new hatchlings, once they are old enough, that is, right now we only have ten and fifteen year olds, so starting tomorrow you will be training them, they will also need to be prepared to shift.” Adonis said and all three girls got up and hugged their brother, happy with the jobs they had been assigned. Each of them had worked hard for this, but just as they were celebrating Cali walked over and dampened everyone's mood.

“Hi guys, am I late for training? I was thinking that I could train the fighters.” Cali asked and I swear that Adonis and I both looked at her like she was nuts.

“Cali, the warriors are the fighters and Nicole will be the one training them. If you really want to help then you could help the hunters, making sure that they are doing their jobs properly and not letting any rogues inside the kingdom.” Adonis replied, but then he smirked at me.

“I know that she absolutely hates doing that job, she doesn’t like being outside where she can get her nails dirty, she prefers to be inside where she can act like the queen she isn’t.” Adonis said, mind-linking me and I tried my best not to laugh.

“Yeah, I can do that. I’ll start tomorrow.” Cali sweetly replied, smiling at both of us. She may have looked happy on the outside, but I could tell that she was absolutely fuming on the inside.

Alpha Billy’s P.O.V

It had been almost a month since she had been gone and in that time everything had turned to s**t. Literally. My room and the rest of the pack house have turned into a complete and utter pig sty, but my mate refused to clean it, saying that it was the job of an Omega, not a Luna. I agreed with her, but then I stepped on glass one day and cut my foot open. After that I lost it and rejected her on the spot, then kicked her ass out of not only my life and house, but also my territory. I knew that I now needed someone new to do the job and my thoughts instantly went to Liv. She always kept the pack house spotless, plus I had a lot of fun with her or rather doing things to her. She was an actual real life dragon and I now had other uses for her, like guarding my pack. I knew that I should have gone after her and not given up so quickly, but I was blinded by my mate. I thought everything over and once I had it all planned out in my mind I called all the Omega’s to the pack house.

“I want this whole house cleaned from top to bottom, if you don’t do a good job then I will throw your asses in the cells with the rats and male rogues that haven’t seen a she-wolf in at least seven years, let alone been with one. You remember the last Omega I had, well what happened to her will look like child's play compared to what I will do to you.” I announced, using my Alpha tone. They all bowed their heads in submission, shaking at the thought of the punishment.

“GET TO f*****g WORK!!!” I screamed out and they all scurried away, getting to work. I went back to my office and picked up my phone, calling the one person I knew would understand my predicament.

“Hello Alpha Billy, what can I do for you?” Alpha Ozzy asked, answering the phone on the first ring. I began to tell him about everything that had happened since Liv had been gone and also that Liv was actually a dragon and what it could mean for our packs.

“I agree that the b***h would make a great guard for both of our packs, but if she gets out of line in dragon form then she is going to be hard to control.” Alpha Ozzy said, making me smirk.

“This is why we beat her into submission when she is in human form. I broke her before and I can do it again, but this time I will do it so that her dragon also complies. I’ll use my cattle prod and strike her with my arrow tipped whip if she gets out of hand. Besides I also owe her a good stiff c**k inside her, it's been way too long.” I replied and Alpha Ozzy laughed.

“Oh don’t worry, she doesn’t make a sound when you f**k her, just make sure that if she lays some eggs to give me one of them and then I could use them to protect my pack, maybe even have some fun with Liv while I’m at it.” Alpha Ozzy said and I agreed with everything except for one thing. I always made Liv cry out and scream when I f****d her. When I hung up the phone I called my two best trackers into my office.

“You have two weeks to find Liv and bring her back here.” I said as soon as they walked in and they both nodded, then left to go pack everything they were going to need. I sat down in the chair behind my desk, thinking everything over and then it hit me. The b***h that called me before about her, I still have her number. I grabbed my phone and began to search for it, but the whole time I was smirking and thinking of what I was going to say. Maybe, just maybe this b***h will lead me to Liv or I could get her to lead Liv here and then I could have two dragons for the price of one, I thought to myself and clicked on her number.
