One week later…

“How do I look?” Astrid asked, brushing her hands down her deep violet brocade gown as she stood in front of the looking-glass. Her jet-black hair was up in an elaborate arrangement of coils atop her head, with tiny ringlets framing her face.

Aureliusz rose from where he’d been lounging on her bed and strolled over, stopping just behind her. He examined her from head to toe, narrowing his eyes and tapping his chin with one finger in thought. Then he smiled and exhaled a breath.

His golden smoke coiled around her torso, lifting her breasts and rearranging the décolletage. When it faded, her cleavage was exposed and shimmered with golden glitter.

“Dominic has an affinity for your breasts, my dear. Don’t discount the power they have in convincing him to agree to our proposal.”

“Noted. Thank you,” she said, turning to face him.

He stepped back and did a slow turn with his arms held out. “Am I enticing enough for a princess to take me as a mate?”

Astrid tilted her head, examining his golden doublet and matching hose. He was as fine as any prince, his golden curls falling in a luxurious cascade around his shoulders from beneath a feathered cap. She wished she could wear her hair loose, but it was only a style for the men, at least at formal gatherings like the wedding they’d been invited to attend.

Dragons shouldn’t have to follow human conventions, she thought; it should be the other way around. But sadly, they had to keep their nature a secret from everyone but their chosen mates. Revealing themselves to Gwen and Dom had been a risk, but hopefully it would pay off tonight.

“You will put every other male to shame, just hopefully not the groom. We need to avoid being a distraction during the ceremony. Their marriage needs to be a success for this to work.”
