Queen Galaria grips her chest as she steps down from her crystal throne.

“My queen?” one of her lady guards says.

“I’m fine. But we need to visit the shore.”

“Yes, my queen.”

Galaria stands without difficulty but she has been shaken up. It’s not something she has felt since the most tragic day of her life.

Chapter Nine

Talen rolls up onto a black sand beach. She opens her eyes and coughs up water. As she crawls up more, out of the water’s reach, she notices that the black sand has tiny white crystals in it.

The shoreline is littered with shells of all colors and shapes mixed in with the crystals that glisten under the moonlight. Behind her is the Glistenberry Forest. The red berries glow brightly under the moonlight. Their sweetness lies in the core where the seeds are. The skin is tart.

“How did I get here?”

She gets to her feet. She can’t see the Seraphina anywhere on the horizon.

“Kip. Oh, no. I hope Remy takes good care of you. The map? Damn. Oh well, the ship will be docking in another day. I’m sure Remy can manage without me until we meet up at the port. He has Maria to occupy him. I can’t be that far from the South Port. It sits in front of the forest.

That kiss she shared with Remy. She told him it’d be only once. She said they’d never speak about it. And yet, here she is thinking about it. Admittedly, she didn’t like the prince much when she first met him. She didn’t believe any of the stories about him either. How he is a coward and always has been. How all that he is good for is ordering servants around. She knows there is more to him. He has a strained relationship with his father, much like she has with her own. Both of them long for their father’s attention. It makes sense that they bonded from that. More importantly, they both want to be free of Dragmoore. She wants to live with the Masters. But now Kip is in her life. A dragon can’t live in the Veiled Haven. She can’t have him living in the wild close to the Veiled Haven either. The Masters may never let her leave to see him.

That kiss. Why did she kiss him? Why is she entertaining the thought of being his wife? There is a pull towards him. She can’t explain it. She also feels a strange pull to Desmond. It’s like she’s known them her whole life and she always knew she’d marry one of them. That’s ludicrous of course. She’s known of the Marksman but he hasn’t been in her life since the beginning. She’s known of the prince but she never met him until recently.

“You most certainly are not falling for the prince or Desmond.” She fingers her lips, remembering the way Remy’s lip felt on hers. “No. I’m going to forget it ever happened. I’ve kissed plenty of men before. I’ve been kissing men since I was sixteen.
