I was accustomed to seeing water for as far as the eye could see, but it was strange to be moving along on it. Once again, I stood at the rails of the boat with my mate by my side. This time, however, we were at the back, watching the water churning from what Chandler called the motor. Based on what he described, I was imagining something rather like the waterwheel of a mill beneath the boat.

He kept glancing at me and I knew it was because he could sense I was nervous. After all of our conversations, there was one burning question I had yet to ask him. I didn't want to hurt him, but I needed to know. As an omega dragon, he would have to have been turned by an alpha which meant…

I cleared my throat. “I do not mean to bring up bad memories… but I must know…”

“What is it, Rask?”

“What happened to your first mate?”

To my surprise he looked confused by the query. “What mate?”

Then again, he could have been turned by a feral dragon instead. I couldn't decide if I was relieved my mate didn't have a love before me, or if it hurt that someone had turned him against his will.

“How did you come to be changed? If not a mate, then by a feral dragon?”

“Neither.” He drummed his fingers against the top of the rail, staring out at the sea. “By the time the Alpha Parliament realized how serious the situation was, there were hardly any of us left. There was an alpha who came to them for sanctuary. They thought she might very well have been the last. Aside from you, she may have been. They gave her permission to turn and impregnate multiple humans, in the name of saving our race. I was very ill…” He paused and glanced at me, gauging my reaction to this news. “She came to a hospital and told us all what she was and gave us a choice.”

I put my hand on his shoulder. “I'm glad you chose to be changed.”

“Me too.”

“But, then where are the others? If there was an alpha dragon turning omegas, where is she? Where are the offspring?”

“There was a cavern where we were going to spend our full moons.” His eyes narrowed and I felt a rush of emotion from him; frustration, grief, confusion… “It was supposed to be a secret location. But in the morning, while we were all still reeling from our first transformation, someone came. Humans, I assume. It was still so close to moonset I don't think a shifter could have done it.” He bowed his head, his fingers clenched on the railing until his knuckles were white. “They killed everyone, while they slept off the effects of the full moon.”

“You saw this? How did you survive?” Fury rose in me at the idea of the slaughter of some of the last, helpless dragons, along with fear for my mate, even though I knew he had, of course, survived.
