Mated to Dragons novel

---- "Oh." "He told me that you were missing." I swallowed . "How did he know someone kidnapped me? I could have just gone for a walk." Lucas swallowed. "I'm not sure." "How did you know where to find me?" He didn't immediately answer me. "Lucas?" "There's a portal in the mountains," he said softly. "I thought you might have left on your own to try and go back home." He thought I was leaving.

I wasn't going to lie and say that I wasn't tempted to see for myself if I could actually go back home, but fear kept me from doing it. People had died because of those portals. I might have been eager to get home, but that was before. Before Mason, Nate, and Lucas. They were reason enough to stay. "She told me to leave ," I whispered . "Your mother. Threatened me and I thought about it, but I couldn't do it. Where will I go if I leave?

I might have learned about your world, but I didn't know anything about it when it came to surviving." ---- "You can't leave the castle," Lucas said. "Not without any of us by your side or one of the guards escorting you." "Why? It's not like I'm important like you." "You're a lot more important than you give yourself credit for, little rabbit." Clearing his throat, his hold loosened slightly . "Do you want some more water?" I shook my head. His hold tightened again.

My eyes fluttered closed as tiredness settled deep inside me. It had only been a few weeks since I arrived at this strange place. Everything had changed and although I hated it at first, I didn't want to change a thing about my life now. Icouldn't imagine being without one of the brothers at my side. Was it love? Did I love them? "Nate is probably worried," I whispered. "We should get back home." "He knows where we are," Lucas said. "you phoned him?" I pulled away to look up at him. "No.

You know we can't shift with our clothes on." His eyes darted over my face. "What I'm about to tell ---- you, nobody else can know. It's just between us, little rabbit." I nodded. "Promise." "Dragons are some of the oldest shapeshifters . We have many special abilities. Some of us can use telepathy and mind control and some can use magic." He paused. "As brothers, we share a bond which allows us to communicate through telepathy.

It comes in handy when we are in our dragon form." I licked my lips as I took in his words. "How does it work?" "You focus on the person you want to communicate with and then you talk with them like you would ina normal conversation," he explained. "That's pretty cool." He smiled. Cupping my cheek, he pressed his lips to mine. He kissed me slowly, but before I could wrap my arm around his neck, he broke the kiss and guided my face back to the crook of my neck. "Get some sleep.

The sedative will be out of your system completely within a few hours." "When will we go back home?" I asked him. "Whenever my beast allows it." ---- "What do you mean?" I frowned. "Aren't you in control of it?" Lucas chuckled. "We like to believe that, but sometimes it takes over control and we're only allowed to sit back and watch from the sidelines." "T wish I was like you," I whispered .

"Sometimes it feels like it would be easier than being human." His lips brushed my forehead, but he said nothing more. With a sigh, I snuggled closer to him and closed my eyes. I didn't want to worry about what was going to happen if we went back to the castle.
