Burning Hearts

Chapter Fourteen

Casen

I woke to pressure and movement on top of me. I grinned before I could open my eyes. Tana has been insatiable. I would say we were making up for the two weeks being held prisoner, but it is more than that. I peered up at her as she rode my body. I grasped her perfect br***ts in my hands and massaged them. I flicked and pinched at her n*p**es, extracting a deeper gasp from her body.

She held my hands to her br***ts. I groaned as her hot slick walls started to clench around me. She’s not the only one who is insatiable. I can’t get enough of her either. She is a fire, and I can’t resist her flame. She cried out as her orgasm surged through her body. It triggered my release, and I spurted deeply locked in her body.

“Well, I see you are not alone.” We both jolted from being startled by the voice. A tall white blonde haired beautiful woman stood in the doorway to the spare room. I grabbed the cloth to try and cover us from her view. “Who are you?” I demanded as Tana climbed off me. “I’m not here to harm you, your highness.” “You haven’t answered me.” I scolded as I moved to sit up.

She looked at my chest and arched her brow as she appreciated me. Tana growled next to me. The woman smirked. “I see she claimed you as hers. You have chosen well, your majesty. He will suit you well.” Wait what? I was taken aback by her statement. We stared in shock at this mystery woman.

“Playing around as usual, I see your highness.” A man with brassy golden blonde hair in intricate braids and pale sky-blue eyes stepped next to the woman. He was tall, maybe taller than Callum. He looked like a warrior.

“You know I can’t resist a little fun, Rhistal.” He gave her a stern look. “I am Princess Lyrai Fenwynn of the light elves of Ennorè. This is one of my father’s trusted warriors, Rhistal Vallynn. We are here to keep you safe, your majesty.”

“Why do you keep calling me “your majesty”? Tana finally spoke up. “Because that is what you are. There has never been a known female phoenix dragon known to exist. You are the most powerful dragon alive. You are the rarest. Your power makes you queen of all dragons. The blood you carry is more ancient than time itself. You must feel how powerful you are.”

My mouth dropped. A phoenix dragon. I never knew there was such a thing as a phoenix dragon. I can’t deny what I witnessed though. She was reborn from the ashes and flame. This still doesn’t explain why Tana needs protection. Protection from who?

“Why does she need protection if she is all powerful?” I spoke up. “Because her rebirth did not go unnoticed. The energy wave she expelled when she took dragon form spread out across the world. All magical and supernatural creatures will have been alerted to it. We are lucky we found her first. The dark elf Queen Syndra Fardove will seek to possess her ashes at any cost. If she possesses her majesty’s ashes, she will become all powerful and invincible. The world will burn at Syndra’s hands.” Lyrai explained.

“We need to go. You have been here too long.” Lyrai ordered. “Leave.” I commanded her. “We will not.” “We need to dress. Certainly, you can give us that much privacy.” Lyrai’s expression took on one of understanding. They stepped out into the hall. I scrambled to pull my jeans on when I realized Tana didn’t have any clothes.

I tossed my shirt to her. She slipped it over her body, and it fell to mid-th*gh. It is better than nothing. “We’re dressed.” I informed them. “Where do we go?” Rhistal questioned. “To my father’s home. I have a score to settle.” Lyrai and Rhistal eyed each other but said nothing.

I led everyone to the garage. I took the keys for Orien’s car. I held them out. Lyrai and Rhistal just stared at them. Tana grabbed them. “Get in.” She commanded us as she unlocked the car with the key fob. Tana opened the back door for Lyrai and gestured for her to get in. Rhistal copied me when I opened the passenger door. Tana got in and started Orien’s car. She grinned as it purred to life.

Tana shot from the garage. I had to smile. She sped along the roads to my dad’s. I was surprised she didn’t need directions, since she'd never been to Orien’s house before. It took a little over a half an hour to get back to my dad’s house. Lyrai and Rhistal just grinned as they watched the scenery speed by.

Tana drove to the main door and parked in front of it. I led them into the house and to my rooms. Knowing my dad, he got rid of or burned all of Tana’s belongings. “Sit. We need to get cleaned up and put fresh clothes on.” I ordered Lyrai and Rhistal. I took Tana’s hand and took her to the bathroom. “Get a shower going, I’ll be right back.” She nodded. I went into my bedroom and into my closet to choose some clean clothes. I grabbed one of my button-up shirts and a belt I hoped I could make work for Tana.

It occurred to me, and I remembered Tana’s panties that I let her wash and I had tucked away hiding them from anyone finding them. I hadn’t needed them while she spent every night in my bed. I dug them out. I don’t have any shoes for her, and none of mine will clearly fit her. I’ll worry about it later.

I brought the clothes to the bathroom. I stepped into the bathroom. I looked at Tana in the shower and my d*ck wanted to twitch. I willed my body to calm down. I climbed in behind her after setting the clothes on the counter. I helped wash her hair and body. She placed kisses on my chest and arms, anywhere she could get her lips on my skin.

She pressed me against the wall of the shower and claimed my lips in a demanding kiss. I couldn’t stop my erection. I turned her to face the wall. I pressed into her body from behind and covered her mouth with my hand to muffle her moans as I pounded into her ferociously to bring her to orgasm as fast as I could. She exploded around me, and I burst. My c*m ran down between her legs dripping down her inner th*ghs. I smiled as I moved to clean her again.

I shut the shower off and stepped out. I grabbed a towel to hand to her. She smirked. Next thing I knew, her body glowed with her flame, drying her body instantly. My mouth dropped. I have never seen a dragon be able to call up a flame, let alone allow it to flow over their skin. Fire burns us in human form. Not as easily as a human, but we can still get burned.

Why haven’t her flames burned you then? Good point brain. We will have to figure that out another time. I dried off and got dressed. She put my shirt on and wrapped the cloth belt around her waist a couple times, making it seem as if she had a semi-loose double belt on. She had smiled at seeing her panties.

She picked up my comb and combed her hair. I shaved really quickly while she did that. She looked at my toothbrush and I handed it to her. I don’t care if she uses it. She went out into the sitting room while I brushed my teeth and combed my hair. The sun had barely risen.

I led them to the ballroom. “Father, Callum, get up and meet me in the ballroom in five minutes. Don’t make me seek you out. You will not be happy.” I commanded them in mind link. “You cannot command me.” My father replied. “I meant what I said. Four minutes or you’ll regret it.” I heard silence after. Knowing my dad, he’s probably gathering his warriors to him to protect him from me.

I heard my dad’s feet storming down the hall. I had Tana, Lyrai, and Rhistal hiding in the shadows of the corner of the room. “So, you finally return. Do not think you will kill me. You know the law. The alphas will hunt you down and kill you.”

Callum entered a half minute later. “You killed the woman I love. You made me watch. You keep an archaic rule in place because you see yourself superior to humans, not because you couldn’t spare her. You wanted to control me. You wanted to make me marry that evil b*tch of a child. You are not going to get your way. I don’t answer to you anymore.”

“You will I am your king.” “You are a f**king *sshole is what you are. A king protects all his subjects. Humans exist in your territory. They deserve protection from us. King Alexander in North America made knowledge of our world for the humans who find out workable. It could be that way everywhere.” My dad scoffed.

“You are weak. Is this why you dragged me out of bed to spew your weak nonsense? Should I detain you for another two weeks until you learn who you answer to?” A growl came from the corner where Tana, Lyrai, and Rhistal were hiding.

Tana stepped forward, growling at my father. His face said all I wanted to know. He was shocked to see her, but he could detect her power. “How can this be? You were ash.” He whispered. For added effect, Tana let her flame flow over her body. I was grateful my clothes didn’t burn in her flames.

“Bow.” She commanded him. He dropped to his knees, and she looked at Callum. He followed suit kneeling. I wrapped my arm around her pulling her into me at her waist. “As I said. I no longer answer to you.” I smiled down at my dad and brother.

“If you attempt to harm another innocent being, magical, supernatural, non-magical again, I will burn you where you stand. This practice will no longer stand anywhere in the world. I forbid it.” Tana commanded in a tone that spoke of her superiority to them and all dragons. I felt the command run through my brain even though I heard it with my ears. Did she just send the command to all the dragons? I think she did.

“I don’t know what you just heard.” A female’s voice came from outside of the door. In walked a group of people. The female in the lead with auburn hair and green eyes was holding a baby in her arms. They looked upon the scene. “Oh, hello.” The female greeted.

The female was surrounded by one other female with hair so red and four males. The one next to her had hair as black as mine with ocean blue eyes. One of the men with sandy blonde hair was standing close to the woman with red hair. There was another man with black hair and one with dark brown hair that looked almost black standing behind them.

I felt Lyrai and Rhistal step up to flank Tana. My father and Callum were still kneeling. Their eyes went wide at seeing Lyrai and Rhistal come from the shadows. The woman who spoke handed the baby to the man next to her. She stepped forward and around my dad and brother. She approached Tana and me. She extended her hand.

“I’m Robyn Drake, Queen of the fae and princess of the dragons in North America.” I took her hand to shake. “It is nice to meet you, your majesty. I am Prince Casen Carrington. That is my father, King Corbin, and my older brother, Prince Callum. This is Tana McCoy. She is Princess Lyrai Fenwynn and her warrior Rhistal Vallynn of the light elves.

“Wow, are you the power source I detected?” She asked Tana. “She is your majesty.” Lyrai responded. “What are you? You smell unlike anything I have ever detected.” “I’m a phoenix dragon. Your majesty,” Tana replied. Queen Robyn’s eyes went wide with astonishment. My dad perked up trying to look at Tana better.

“I don’t mean to be rude, but what are you doing here, Queen Robyn?” “Call me Robyn. We’re here for you.” “What? Why?” “Its complicated to explain. Here.” She reached for my head. Tana growled and her flame intensified. “I mean him no harm. It will just be easier to give him his memories if I touch him.” “My memories?” I was thoroughly confused.
