“Nononono!”

Saskia moaned to herself as she neared her home only to realize that her stepmother and sisters had somehow arrived before she had. Fear froze her in the bushes at the bottom of the garden for a moment as she looked at the house, its windows all lit and movement within. A loud screech informed her that Goranka had discovered her absence.

She shivered and resisted the urge to curl up in a small ball and hide her face in her hands. There was no way she could get back into the house unseen, despite the fact she’d managed to escape the palace with all its guards and security. It was all a bit of a haze, so she wasn’t sure exactly how she’d managed that…

All she remembered was fleeing from the duke’s study when Floriana had come crashing in with the dragon-boy and lots of corridors and rooms before she found a window she could open. Then it was all darkness and the rushing of wind as she fell, losing one of her shoes in the process. Somehow she’d managed to not kill herself, landing outside the palace walls and then running through the night, desperate to get home before her family.

A small cry of despair escaped her as she looked at the house. But she hadn’t managed it. Somehow they’d all gotten home before she had. And there was no way Floriana hadn’t recognized her in the study. Calan had been more concerned about concealing her from the male but not from his female companion, so Floriana had managed to get a good look right at her.

Scales. Blindly, she looked back the way she’d come. Perhaps she could get back to the palace, find Calan and throw herself on his mercy. Misery washed up to overwhelm her as she looked down at herself. Her beautiful gown was muddy and torn, one of her shoes gone and her hair had long since tumbled down from its elegant updo. No, she couldn’t go back. Whatever the madness in his study had been, it had been one night only. There was no way he’d want her… a crazy woman with a dragon she couldn’t control.

In the end, she didn’t get chance to even look for a way back into the house. Almost as soon as she’d set foot beyond the shelter of the bushes, the French doors at the back of the house burst open, her family streaming out of them with Goranka in the lead.

“There she is!” Floriana announced in triumph, pointing at her. They still wore their ball finery but the mud splattering up the delicate fabrics as they stomped across the gardens wasn’t what drew Saskia’s gaze. Instead it was the glow in their eyes and the way smoke, evidence of their dragons’ anger, trailed from their nostrils as they stormed toward her.

“I told you the little bitch was there. The slut was giving it up to the duke… his hand up her skirts and everything.”

Goranka’s howl of fury split the air and Saskia didn’t even look around for a way to escape.
