Chapter 16

“Holy fuck, but you look amazing.” Fog leaned in and kissed her on the temple.

Riley’s cheeks suffused with pink. “Thanks. Melina is a genius.”

“Not really!” Melina giggled. “I had a fantastic canvas to work on.”

“I love it.” Riley touched her sleek strands. “The feathering around my face is great. I appreciate it.”

“I’m glad it’s still long,” Fog said, his eyes moving down her back. Her dress today was a little shorter. Fucking hot!

The gear would be arriving today. He only wished he had at least one person who would go with him. So far, no one was willing to go against the royals. Everyone thought he was crazy for even trying to put a team together. Why do it when a rescue team was about to be sent anyway? What they didn’t realize was that there was no rescue mission. He couldn’t give them answers. Or speak out about what was really going on. Fog was getting to a point where he was contemplating putting it all out there. At least with his closest friends. He was beginning to realize that he might have to go in alone. Perhaps it would be better that way. In and out without anyone being the wiser.

Melina and Riley were chatting.

He checked his phone, reading the message a tenth time. Storm had asked to see him that afternoon. Damn! Fog could guess what he wanted to talk about. The pressure was on. Fog didn’t like it one bit. It wouldn’t be long before an ultimatum would be delivered to him…to them. Two days. That’s all he needed.

“I’m ready when you are,” Riley said.

“Oh…sorry. Just checking my messages.” He shoved his phone into his pocket.

They said their goodbyes and headed out. Fog put his arm around Riley. He hoped there wouldn’t be any shit on the way back. He didn’t feel much like it. Having said that, he was ready if anyone tried anything.

Most of the males they passed looked away. Good! Word was getting out that despite Riley not being claimed yet, that she was off bounds. The one or two cocky fuckers who looked her way received a stern warning in the form of a growl or a snarl.

Pricks!

“How do she-dragons deal with this attention?” Riley asked after he gave a particularly loud snarl.

“Most of our females are infertile.”

“Does that make them undesirable?”

“They’re still desirable, but…dragons are base. We are driven to procreate, and therefore, females who are fertile are more appealing. It’s different with the she-dragons.”

Riley laughed. “That’s silly. Who knows whether or not I’m even fertile? How can you tell?”

“You are human,” Fog said.

“Yeah, and…?” She widened her eyes. “That doesn’t automatically make me fertile.” She shrugged.

“Most humans are fertile. Even those with problems will normally become pregnant. Dragons have strong seed. Also, humans are very attractive to us dragons. Especially humans who look like you.”

“Like me?” She snorted. “Give me a break.”

“I mean it.” Fog growled at a male who dared to look for too long. Once they turned down the next hallway, he said, “You’re lush.
