Chapter Ten - Connor
In all the years he had lived, he had been with many women. All willing, but all after something for themselves. The same was true of Serena, and yet she wanted him to enjoy what passed between them. It was the first time a woman who knew he was a dragon had wanted to please him. She had touched him physically in a way no other woman had, and that touch had gone deeper. Somewhere inside him a well of emotion had been opened.
She lay in his arms, her soft warm body cradled against his, her breath even as she slept, something that would evade him tonight. His mind was a mass of confusion. He knew she had come here to drug him, for what purpose he couldn't make out, the liquid in the vial was unknown to him. Modern drugs and medicines too many to keep track of, but he guessed it was some kind of narcotic that would render him senseless while she left after the ritual.
He had seen those men, seen what they made her do. If he offered her protection from them would she leave with him? This city held nothing for him. He had grown tired of it, and longed for the fresh air and clear skies of the mountains.

No, if he wanted to make her his, loyal to him, he had to find out what was going on, he had to make her trust him, and then she would tell him, he was sure of it.
He placed an arm around her protectively, thinking back on his conversation with Zoah. His other option was to throw her out, and leave her to her fate, there was a good chance she had not conceived yet. It would be the safe, sensible thing to do. He could leave here, go where those men could never find him, in a blink of his eye they would be dead and past, their time on this earth gone while he endured. Their lives nothing compared to that of a dragon. Or he could stay, take an interest in life, in this woman sleeping in his arms.
She shifted in her sleep, a small cry. His anger simmered, a dangerous sign. He could not let his temper get the better of him. However, at
