CHAPTER TWO

Phoebe Bright gasped in shock as she was unceremoniously locked out of the SeaDragon’s home. Pompous ass! She couldn’t believe what had just occurred.

Her charge, the Warden she’d come to supervise, was angry and distant at first. Then, he strutted around naked like he owned the place! Well, technically he did own the place, but that didn’t matter!

It wasn’t nearly the worst thing he’d done in her presence. Oh no! The jerk insulted her organization, interrupted her every time she spoke, and basically just ignored her! Did he not realize who she was?

Phoebe prided herself on being a White Witch born of the Coven Clarum. She was the daughter of the infamous Starr Bright, the high priestess for her Coven and renowned healer.

Phoebe was celebrated in some magic circles as hailing from one of the most talented Witch families of the age. Not as gifted as her mother perhaps, Phoebe herself had a certain knack for creating shields and other protection spells with her magic.

That gave her an idea. She smirked at the intricately carved door depicting a terrific scene of a Dragon rising from a turbulent sea, droplets of water raining down from his great wings. It was absolutely beautiful, but she had no time to admire it. Phoebe had work to do.

She shook her head. Perhaps she’d have time later to remark on the artistic abilities of her reluctant host. A reluctant host who would soon have no choice, but to listen to her.

Could she even reason with the beast of a man? Maybe. But only if she remembered her training! You’ve doubted yourself for the last time, Phoebe. Standing as tall as her short stature would allow, she sucked in a breath, straightened her shoulders, and knocked on the door. Loudly.

“Mr. Silvertongue! Mr. Silver-”

To her surprise, the heavy thing opened. Phoebe hid her startled expression and was only vaguely disappointed to see he had further covered himself with a tight cotton t-shirt.

The thin fabric did nothing to hide his impressive muscles from her covetous eyes. And boy did she covet. Wowza. Shifters were generally good-looking, but he was positively gorgeous. Must be a Dragon thing, she thought as she tried to appear unaffected by his nearness.

Not that it was easy. The man was practically a god. His black hair was shorn close to his skull, except for the top. Long, thick strands of his ebony hair flopped forward in the front, almost hiding his silver eyes from sight. Oh boy, he was truly breathtaking. A superb specimen of man, er, Shifter.

She shook her head. Criminy, Phoebe, just do your job! Her job. That’s right. She was there to perform a duty, one that did not give her leave to indulge her fascination with the sexy SeaDragon. Um. Yeah. Right.

“I thought I told you to leave,” his deep voice resonated with something inside of her, making her squirm under his glittering stare.

“Yes, well, I didn’t,” she had to run to catch up to his long stride.

This is ridiculous.
