Mated to Dragons novel

---- 8. LUCAS "You think I don't know what's happening in my kingdom?" "S-Sire-" "J didn't give you permission to speak," I interrupted him. "When I chose you to wear that uniform, I thought that you were worthy of it. You disobeyed my direct orders. What were you hoping to achieve?" The guard stared down at his feet. I tilted my head and listened to the approaching footsteps . A second later there was a firm knock on the door. "Enter." Mason pushed the door open.

There was a moment's hesitation before Angel tentatively stepped into the room. Her eyes locked with mine for a second and then lowered to the floor.
