Platinum watched the fire, imagining he saw faces in the dancing flames in the hearth of the old, semi-renovated dump they were living in.

Dante had been able to trade pure gold for it, which was good because human banks didn’t look kindly on pure exchanges of precious metals.

Platinum was able to blend in well enough, had been able to get clothing, mostly stolen, but all in all, he had to think the coarse metal dragons, Titus and his crew, had a big advantage waking in the modern world with people to actually help them.

Not that he’d ever admit as much to Dante.

Both Dante and Adrien were looking a little the worse for wear. There was a hole in the roof, but they were all too lazy to fix it. And, to be honest, thought it was beneath them.

Not Sever, but then again, he had always liked the rain.

He’d like it more if Amelia were here to enjoy it. But she never would be, and it was all the fault of that idiot Titus, who he’d been stupid to ever trust.

“You aren’t really going back again tomorrow to be a laborer, are you?” Adrien asked, his light-silver hair slightly longer than its usual, clean-cut short length and askew. His bright, silver eyes were just as sharp, though.

“I’m doing what I have to, to make sure he pays,” Sever responded.

“To make sure all of them pay,” Dante said lazily, crossing one leg over the other in the ridiculously large, ornate chair he sat in that he’d liberally decorated in gold.

All of them could create precious metal. The problem was that was more of a tradeable commodity in their day than in the modern world. When you walked around holding hunks of gold and platinum, humans tended to ask questions.

“What a waste,” Adrien said. “We should be trying to restore ourselves to our former glory, not wasting our time on revenge.”

“And you’re going to let them just get away with the fact that they dumped an avalanche on us?” Sever asked.

Adrien’s silver eyebrows drew together in thought. “No. I suppose not. Well, hurry and win his mate, then. That will destroy him. We’ll have our revenge and a human to help us in the human world.”

“It’s not that easy, brother,” Sever said. “I have to win her.”

“Do it, then,” Adrien said lazily.

But it wasn’t so simple. Despite his original goal, he actually liked Bree. He could easily see a comfortable life with her. And since the woman he believed was his mate was gone forever, pretty much any one would do, right?

“What are you thinking about?” Dante asked, gold eyes narrowed.

“Nothing,” Sever lied, putting up a block in his head.

“You aren’t thinking of turning on us and going to their side?” he said tersely.

Adrien sat up slightly beside him.

“No, of course not,” Sever snapped. “Wouldn’t dream of it.”

“Good,” Dante said. “Because our only hope of survival is if we stay together.”

“Yes,” Sever said, though he wasn’t positive he agreed. In the old days, that might have been true.
