Mated to Dragons novel

---- approached. She said something to her before she held a round bowl out towards her. Angel didn't hesitate, she took it from her and to my horror, reached inside and took a bite of whatever was inside it. "We need to explain things to her," Mason muttered. "She shouldn't be out here talking to them or even accepting food from strangers. What if those cookies are poisoned?" I was moving towards them before I realized it.

Nate saw me first, his eyes locked with mine and he gave mea slight shake of his head. I glared at him. "Your Highness ," the woman greeted , bowing low. I felt ashamed to admit that I didn't know her name. "How are you doing?" I asked her. Her smile was bright. Although her eyes were still filled with some sadness, she looked much better than the last time we saw her. "Tm fine, thank you. I just wanted to come and thank you and your mate for everything you did for me.

The things you got for me and my family...it's making things easier for me." "Tt was all my mate's idea," I told her, smiling down at Angel. "I'm glad that you're happy." She held the bowl out towards me. ---- I hesitated , staring down at the different shapes of cookies in it. Angel stepped up to my side, pressing a hand to my arm as she reached for another cookie. "They are really delicious ," she muttered , taking a big bite of the cookie she just took.

Muttering a silent curse, I took a chocolate cookie and took a bite. Flavours exploded in my mouth. "Tt's very good," I told her, making her smile widen. "Everyone should have a taste," Angel told her softly. "Maybe you should start your own bakery. I'd go into town just to buy your cookies." The woman blushed and bowed again before she moved away, handing her cookies out like Angel suggested. I turned towards my mate and glared down at her.

There were a lot of things I wanted to say to her, but I knew that it wasn't the right time. Too many people were around, and the last thing I wanted was to cause any more trouble. Asigh fell from my lips. Reaching out, I wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her closer. My face lowered to her throat where I sucked in a deep breath. She smelled like me, Mason, and Nate which assured me that he had finally bonded her.

---- Angel pressed her hands to my chest and turned her head slightly until her cheek brushed mine. "Are you okay?" she asked. I sucked in another deep breath and slowly raised my head to stare down at her. My eyes darted over her face. She had more color in her cheeks. Angel looked happy. "Lucas?" Instead of answering her, I cupped her cheek and kissed her. Angel's arms slipped around my neck as she arched her body against mine. Her lips instantly parted under the pressure of mine.

She made a sound at the back of her throat that instantly made blood run south. A throat cleared close by. I broke the kiss and blinked down at her. The urge to throw her over my shoulder and carry her to our bedroom was strong, and I would have done it if Mason hadn't stepped up behind Angel and gripped her wrist. Our eyes locked for a few seconds before he glanced around. "Let's see if we can do some damage control," he said ---- soft enough for me to hear.
