Roc was scary. And lethal. And a whole host of other things, but one thing Razzy couldn’t deny was that he stirred her like no other man ever had. Try as she might to ignore the pull between them, there was something visceral and alluring about him that pulled her in. A sense of power and danger that thrilled her even though it should have warned her off, repulsed her even… especially when he’d dealt with his challenger so brutally.

It hadn’t. Instead, all she’d felt was excitement. Not at the damage he’d inflicted on his opponent, she wasn’t quite that bloodthirsty, but at the thought of all that power and brutality bent to another purpose… pleasure. At the thought of that big, powerful form above her, pressing her into the furs over his bed as he kissed every inch of her skin.

A shiver hit her, working across her body all the way from her toes upward. It heated her blood and made parts of her she’d thought had shut down completely tingle at being near him. Thoughts of touching him, that lean, hard body hers to explore made her bite her lip and she locked the thoughts away so she couldn’t act on them. He wasn’t hers. Wasn’t her mate. If he was, surely her dragon would have woken?

Her eyes closed, she lay in the furrow between his ridge scales as he climbed through the darkness up to his eyrie. She hadn’t missed the changes he’d made since she arrived. More furs had appeared on the bed and a fire raged constantly in the crude fireplace, banishing both the dark and the damp. There had even been rose petals on the bed the other day… the purple petals those of the northern rock rose, her favorite flower. They were a shy and elusive plant, only flowering at certain times of year and day. How the hell he’d managed to find them in the first place, never mind get them all the way up here, she had no idea, but the little gesture had been sweet.

They reached the cave entrance to his lair and he touched down, shifting in the same breath. Again, he somehow managed to come out of the shift holding her in his arms as he walked deeper into the cave system that made up his home. She hadn’t been able to work out how he did it, but it was one of the little things, in combination with others, that made her realize that her long-held belief that wyverns were antiquated relics was wrong. So far wrong, it was laughable.

Sure, they were big and brutal, their shifted forms like scaled and armored flying tanks, but the more she saw of them, the more she got to know Roc… the more she realized there was a feral beauty in the ferocity and a noble heart hidden under the brutal exterior. He hadn’t killed that male earlier, not even when all the others expected him to. Not even when she expected him to.
