Chapter Twelve

Brooke sat on the sofa’s cushions. She nodded her head.

Hayley confessed to kissing Xavier. She didn’t know how to feel about it at first (maybe a little jealous). Brooke wanted to be the first one to taste him, to mingle with his human touch and body, but she knew that Hayley would claim him before anyone else. She was the first meet Xavier. She also knew that her own affront was beginning to falter.

“I loved it. I loved every second of it.”

Brooke chewed on the licorice. “What did he do?”

“He… wanted more. He wants us. He said he wants us,” Hayley said.

This was good. It was better than good, Brooke told herself. Hell, not even the best male dragons expressed interested in them, not that there were many male dragons to begin with. Besides, the taboo of being intimate with a human was something so lightning hot that it couldn’t be ignored.

They sat in the library. Long bookcases surrounded them, fixed with tall shelves. Fiction, non-fiction, rare antiques, occult mysticism, arcane texts of forbidden and cookbooks lined the shady oak walls. From time to time, Brooke would study them. Hayley had more knowledge, of course, but Brooke did her dabbling.

Telepathy was a skill she very much desired to learn. Hayley had already acquired some of it, but Brooke wasn’t far behind. “Brooke, are you listening?” a frustrated Hayley asked.

Brooke nodded again. “Yes. I’m listening. Just… kind of taking it in. I wasn’t taking it seriously and it’s happening really fast.”

“Something in him changed.”

“You said his powers manifested,” Brooke added, “wouldn’t that do it?”

Hayley shook her head. “Not just that. His personality. It’s like he knows what he wants now. The shyness is gone.”

“He’s become dominant,” Brooke said.

“Correct.” Hayley leaned back in one of the cushioned study chairs.

A small table sat between them. Boxes of licorice, a bottle of wine, and half-full goblets sat atop its smooth surface. “Well. He didn’t flip out.”

“I mean he did at first. I heard him frying the shower. It’s out, but it will need some paint.”

Brooke leaned forward and picked up her goblet of wine. She brought it to her lips and sipped. “Does he know about our powers yet?”

Hayley shook her head. “Not outright.”

“I know he probably suspects we can breathe fire.”

Hayley nodded. “Yes.”

“Did you get in his head by chance?”

Hayley scoffed. “No. I mean… not on purpose. Maybe for a second. I’m not proficient.”

Brooke grinned. “What did you find in there, Hayley?”

“Nothing bad at all.”

“So,” Brooke set the goblet back down and clasped her hands together, “he’s going to find out about the telepathy and clairvoyance. And Nicki’s tricks.”

“I’ll tell him tomorrow if I remember.”

Brooke’s face stretched to a wide, catlike smirk. “Oh, tomorrow. Tomorrow night, huh? What are you going to do him tomorrow night?”

“We’ll see where it goes,” Hayley said.

“So when do I get to ask to have a night with him?”

Hayley rolled her eyes. “Just ask him whenever.”

“What if he says no?”

“He won’t. He already told me he wants all of us.
