She woke later in bed with her body nestled against Col’s. How much later was difficult to determine. The sun was still shining brightly outside through the curtains in the bedroom. Her dragon man was on his back, and she had her head in the crook of his shoulder, with one arm and one leg thrown over his wide body. The blankets covered them, and she was so warm. Everything smelled like Col, like fire and spice and man.

As much as she didn’t want to leave the comfort of her mate’s arms, she had to call her family and let them know she hadn’t died out in the Alaskan wilderness. Naomi also needed to download the photos from her shoot and send them to her magazine. They were already going to be pissed that she didn’t check in yesterday.

She extracted herself carefully from Col’s arms then the bed. She pulled on a pair of yoga pants and a sweatshirt from her suitcase in the corner and padded quietly out of the bedroom.

Naomi filled a glass of water from the tank in the kitchen next to the sink before making her way over to the small desk in the corner of the living room where her laptop awaited.

She pulled the memory card from the camera and plugged it into her adapter. The pictures popped up on the screen. Elk. Birds. A fox. That had been a lucky catch. Dragon.

Holy shit.

She had taken a picture of Jaha and his sisters right before they’d come at her. Naomi clicked again.

Another picture of the two dragons.

DELETE.

She selected the pictures as fast as her computer would let her. Couldn’t keep something like that in her cloud. If anyone ever saw it, Col would be in danger.

The picture zapped to the trashcan and she emptied it immediately. Hopefully it’d been fast enough. Privacy was a joke. The government had bots that looked at everything online. That one hadn’t uploaded yet though, she’d deleted it before it went into the cloud. It wasn’t on the memory card anymore.

Gone.

It was gone.

Naomi took a deep breath and let it shudder from her lungs slowly. She hadn’t even remembered taking the pictures. When Jaha had hurt her, it’d knocked even the surrounding memories around that time into the dark.

Col said the black dragon had thrown her across the clearing. She’d hit a tree, which’d been why her head throbbed after she woke up in that cabin like an elephant had stepped on her. But her man was right, her head had healed fast. The cut was gone the next day and she never remembered it aching past that next morning either.

Was she really changing? If so, what was happening to her?

Not that having flame retardant skin was a bad thing. Naomi couldn’t really see a downside. Really, it was kinda like having a superpower.

She looked down at her hands. No fingerless gloves. She’d been wearing them ever since she got to Alaska. Hadn’t been able to bear to take them off.
