Finding a new path…

For the first time since they’d sent the dragons away, Con ignored the rules and flew. He didn’t care if any mortals saw him. The only thing that could help his tattered heart was taking to the skies.

He chased the night, keeping just ahead of dawn one continent after another. He didn’t look down, didn’t take note of how fast the humans had spread around the globe. He kept his gaze on the horizon and his mind empty.

Or at least he tried.

Rhi was always there, tempting him with a memory of her laugh as she told him a dirty joke or smiled up at him seductively as she crawled onto his lap for a kiss.

She was there even as he recalled their arguments and heated debates when their thoughts differed. She had always been up for any kind of adventure, but she was just as comfortable spending the day lying in each other’s arms, talking.

When Con finally lowered his gaze to the ground, he didn’t see the mortals or their buildings. He saw the way things had once been when the dragons ruled. He’d promised the Kings and dragons that they would come home one day. He had given them—and himself—hope. But the truth was, he feared they would never return.

Was he fooling himself about Rhi, as well? Did he honestly think she could forgive him for what he had done? And how he had done it?

She was beautiful, intelligent, loyal, and brave. There wasn’t a male out there who wouldn’t do anything to have her for himself. Rhi deserved love. She deserved someone who could put her first. As much as Con wished he could do that, he couldn’t. His father had warned him what might come to pass. Con hadn’t realized how deeply he could love his mate. Even if he had, it wouldn’t have stopped him from becoming King of Golds or King of Kings.

Besides, the magic wouldn’t have let him shirk his duty.

Just like it wouldn’t let him now. He had vowed, and the magic of the realm took that seriously.

Con had lost two things he didn’t think he could lose—the dragons, and his mate. He wouldn’t see the Kings fall apart. He couldn’t. He would do whatever was necessary to keep their family together and happy.

To his surprise, he realized that he had circled the globe. Con saw he was back in Scotland. He looked behind him. Ireland wasn’t far. He could drop in on Rhi and see if she was recovering. Just a look.

Something bumped into his other wing. Con swung his head around to find teal scales.

“About time you came home,” Vaughn’s voice said in his mind.

Con sighed. Maybe Vaughn showing up to prevent him from going to Rhi was a sign. What would seeing her accomplish anyway?

“Con?”

He opened the link between them. “I need some time.”

“Is she all right?”

“Aye. I found her just in time.”

Vaughn made a sound. “You actually went through a Fae doorway. What was it like?”

“It was nothing.
