The Lost King of Dragons

Chapter 14

Dante –

I lost track of how many days I have been here. There have been a few where Alpha Damascus made me go take a shower and freshen up.

Vatra was making improvements, but she was still unconscious. I slept only when they brought in a larger bed so I could lay with her. This was for my sanity and her healing.

Often, people came in and talked with me. I think they felt it would help. At times it did, but other times, it just irritate me.

I was only eating, because the hospital staff were policing my meals.

Time continued on without me being present. It was a cool morning when I felt Vatra stir. Without any notice, her body heated up. Smoke was coming from her nostrils. I pushed the button for a nurse.

Her response was quick and she went running out of the room when she noticed Vatra breathing out smoke.

Doc came running in. He checked all of the equipment attached to her. He asked her several questions, but her responses were garbled. We all sat and waiting in anticipation of her fully waking up.

It felt like forever had passed when her eyes opened and looked up at me. She smiled. Her hand came up and caressed my jawline. I breathed out heavily. Relief flooded my body. Vatra’s body continued to heat up. It was even starting to get a little warm for me.

“How do you feel?” Doc asked her.

“Like I’ve slept for too long.” She didn’t take her eyes off me. I could see they were starting to glow.

What was happening finally slapped me in the face. Vatra was going into heat.

“Doc, we need to get her out of here before she burns down the building.” My eyes didn’t leave Vatra for one moment.

He looked between us concern etched on his face. The moment he realized what was happening he gasped and started barking out orders to the nurses.

Once released from all the wires and machines, I scooped her up. Gently I jogged outside and shifted. Carrying her in my arms I flew over to a water fall. It would keep her cool and give us the privacy we needed.

I barely shifted when she was on me. Kissing me with a hunger that couldn’t be quenched. I could feel her body was still weak, so I was going to have to be gentle.

She growled at me several times, because I was being too gentle.

“I need you.” She whispered into my ear. Without warning she sunk her teeth into my neck and it set my fire ablaze. Without releasing me from her teeth, she undid my pants and I helped push them down. She lifted her hospital gown and jumped on me. Wrapping her legs around me as I held her up.

In one swift movement I pushed into her core. This made her release my neck. She was crying out as I pounded into her hard and fast. She was the perfect height. I moved my face around and managed to latch onto her neck. She screamed as she coated my member in her juices. Her core clenched onto me and pulsed as we rode her high.

I released her and her eyes flashed. I knew where this was going.

She got down, tore her hospital gown off and shifted.

I followed suit in removing my cloths and shifted.

Our Dragons embraced onto another. Vatra laid on the floor with her belly down and her ass in the air. I climbed behind her and inserted my member into her.

I pumped into her over and over again as she came. My seed spilled into her womb more times that I could keep track.

At some point we collapsed with exhaustion. Sleep consumed us. I could feel myself drifting off with a smile on my face as our bodies shifted back to our human form.

I woke to Vatra climbing on top of me and slamming her hot core down my length. She rode me until we both came, screaming with pleasure. Sleep again took us away.

Time was of no consequence to us. We were basking in one another’s love.

When we finally came down from our desires and calmed enough to have a coherent thought, we called for Alpha Damascus to have someone bring us cloths. Ours had gotten lost at some point.

Carefully, someone left us cloths and vacated the area.

We were quick to get dressed and walk back to the pack house. Alpha Damascus met us at the door. Giving us a knowing glance. Vatra was simply glowing with happiness.

“How are you feeling Vatra?” He asked her.

“I’m much better Alpha.” She responded. Taking my hand in hers and squeezing.

“I hate to be a mood killer, but we have much to discuss.”

I always appreciated Alpha Damascus for being so straight forward.

“First off, Vatra do you know how long you were out?” He eyes searching hers and mine for an answer.

I shook my head when she looked at me.

“It has been 4 months.” That had me frozen. I was in that room for 4 months!? I know time gets away from me, because I have lived so long, but damn. He continued, “In those 4 months, quite a bit has happened.” He walked over and shut his office door and locked it. He turned what looked like a decoration and I could feel a power surging. It was a magical field surrounding the room. “What we discuss in this office is top secret information. I know you aren’t going to be happy about some of the decisions we have made, but listen and then respond.”

He looked at a us both waiting for acknowledgement that we understood. He began again. “With the attack, we were presenting with a slew of questions we could not answer. We are lucky we didn’t lose more. Never did we ever thing it was possible that the humans would work with the Sirens. It has come to our knowledge that the humans do not know what they are. They look like and act just like humans. It is the perfect ploy.

An all-female warrior team has been created to handle this specific threat. They have infiltrated the underworld clubs and have been reporting back regularly with information. Their mission has been valuable to getting to the bottom of things and answering these nagging questions.

I anticipate they will be able to return home in the next few months if things continue to progress as they have been.”

“How did they infiltrate them? Those clubs are nearly impossible to get into.” Vatra asked. Her eyes wide in admiration at this team. I could feel her pride swelling as Alpha Damascus continued.

“They have received help from a witch. She has been able to help them cover their identities.” He took a drink of his coffee and continued. “We have also learned the Sirens are using the humans to do their bidding. We know who wants Ember.”

I looked around and interrupted, “Don’t you think this is something we should discuss with Ember here?”

“No, she is already aware of this information.” He paused a moment to see if I had any more questions. When I didn’t say anything more, he proceeded with explaining everything to us.

“She is wanted by the Siren King. We have come across a prophecy telling of a Phoenix Dragon birthing a great warrior. Her mate will be the most powerful Hybrid of the tri.”

I made a face. He responded before I could say anything. Reading my face. “We do not know what the last part means yet, but what we do know now is that Ember has a mate. At this point we haven’t figure out who it is.”

“We won’t be able to find her mate unless she travels. And that’s not happening with everything going on.” With those words, Alpha Damascus’ face fell. He would look at me and it set me on edge.

“What is it?” I asked in a harsher tone that I had intended.

“She is leading the Warrior team. Ember left months ago. They have been efficient and gained much ground.”

“How the f**k was she able to gain entrance to the Underground Clubs?” Vatra’s voice was nearly yelling.

“One of the warriors has presented herself as a temptress. The others are her blackbirds.”

My eyes grew and my temper rose. I stood. My hands balled into fists and smoke pulsing from my nose. “You let her go knowing she was going to have to have s*x with countless disgusting men?”

Alpha Damascus stood. Taking a fighting stance against me. “She chose this. And she has not been touched. None of them have. The witch has joined them. They drug the bondsmen and mess with their mind to think they got to spend a night with them. They also are efficient enough they don’t even remember spilling the darkest of secrets. Dante, I understand you are both upset, but Ember is a grown Dragon and a grown woman. She is efficient and lethal. This was her mission. She presented it and provided enough safety measures I couldn’t deny it. We have learned much. We never would have found the prophecy had she not gone underground.”

He waiting a moment to allow things to process.

“Why didn’t she tell me?” I whispered. Hurt now overtaking my heart.

“She saw you were struggling with Vatra’s condition. Also, she needed only women. You would have forced your way into going. You are a liability. I hate to put it that way, but she is going after the Sirens. They would have used you to get to her and then kill her.

The female Sirens are absolutely pissed that the King will take none other than Ember. He desperately wants her to bare his child.”

The thought sickened me. Ember should be given the opportunity to find her mate and be happy. In some ways I was relieved that she hadn’t found him yet. She didn’t need to be mated to someone who had anything to do with the Underground Clubs.

“What can we do to help?” Asked Vatra.

“At this point in time. There isn’t a lot. We are all waiting for more information that only Ember and her team can provide us…..the Siren Kings location.”

“What is our strategy?”

“The Kings and Queen have already called their ally’s. They have all agreed to help us take him down. Once we get a location, everyone is coming here.”

That surprised me. I thought for sure all of them would dip out as soon as it came time that we actually needed help.

“What shall we do until then?” I asked.

“Train our warriors. War is coming.”
