Chapter 5.

It took weeks to set the city to rights. The King’s guard burned every one of the barbarian’s bodies, and even opened the gates to sift through the ash to make sure there would be none coming back from the dead.

They’d heard from the messenger this morning, and they’d brought great news. The team of ten soldiers they’d sent to Davuno had come across no barbarians, and had indeed reported that there had been no attack on Davuno thus far.

Hopefully that meant that the barbarians had put all their fighting men into the attack on Gregorick, and therefore, they should be completely impotent now.

But only time would tell.

King Taneel’s minor injuries were healing, Nargoya was doing well, and Leo had bounced back better than even Mia had expected.

It was time for the victor’s feast and the air bubbled with promise and intensity.

The king stood and greeted his guests. “I would like to thank everyone here tonight for their bravery in defeating our enemy. But I must add special thanks to our Dragon Master Tattiena and Prince Leonide of Davuno, for their efforts in our victory. I owe a debt of gratitude to you both.”

They lifted their glasses and all around the table toasted the victory.

Tattiena brought the glass to her lips and took a small sip. Her appetite was not right and her stomach churned at the smell of the rich food before her.

“Because you will be leaving soon and there is no future for us...Prince Leonide.”

She swallowed hard as the bile rose. She was not looking forward to saying goodbye to him again. After everything they had shared, she was afraid they were inextricably linked.

The passionate sex, fighting beside him... He was her intended mate and she knew it. But that did not mean that she had to fall into Fate’s plans for her. She would not risk the safety of the city, nor her own life, for a child that did not exist yet.

Stupid. Cruel. Fate.

She shoved his hand off her thigh and gasped at the feelings of cold dread that invaded her heart.

Everything made sense to her now, especially why Nargoya wouldn’t hurt Leo. The powerful, protective Dragon wouldn’t even lift a finger to help her, when Tattiena had been so furious with him the other day.

Any other time, Nargoya would have been at her back, protecting her, tapping into the intense feelings she was experiencing. But not where her intended mate was involved. Nargoya could obviously see through all of that.

They kept eating and drinking, talking and celebrating as the day called for. Tattiena, unfortunately, had to spend some of the night fending off the advances of her half-brother. The
