CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Kate took a deep breath and stared nervously at the large, majestic mansion as Jae drove slowly up the long driveway. Jae had jumped out of the car and spoken rapidly into the intercom at the side of the gate. Almost immediately, the tall automatic gates had opened for them.

As the gates closed soundlessly behind them, Kate saw someone throw the double doors of the mansion wide open.

Two tall, fierce-looking males stepped out. They were wearing black leather jackets and combat boots, and Kate glimpsed their gun holsters under their jackets.

One of the men stepped forward and opened the car door for her. “Hi, I'm Rohan Draek and this is Edriq Haeken. We're Zul's brothers.”

Kate stared at the handsome dark-haired man and gulped. This tall, imposing man was the king of the Dracans, a powerful weredragon. Yet he had come out of the house to welcome her personally and even opened the car door for her. Kate heard herself stammer a greeting that ended with “Your Royal Highness”.

“Oh no,” Rohan said at once. “This is Earth, not Draca. I'm just an ordinary businessman here on Earth.”

But even before Rohan had finished speaking, Jae had put his fist over his heart and dropped to one knee. “Your Majesty...”

Rohan shook his head and helped the old Dracan up. “I'm not a king...”

“You are my king, King Rohan,” Jae said fervently.

Edriq stepped forward and shook Kate's hand. After greeting her politely, Edriq turned and began to speak to Jae in a low voice.

“They're speaking in Dracan,” Rohan explained as he led her into the house.

“It's a beautiful language,” Kate answered. “I wish I could understand it.”

“It's not that hard to learn,” a small voice piped up. A young girl who looked to be around five or six was standing at the foot of the stairs in her pajamas. “Who are you?” the girl asked, watching Kate intently. “Where's Uncle Zul?”

Rohan walked up to the little girl and said, “Tessa, why aren't you in bed?”

“I couldn't sleep. I was thirsty. I came out of my room and I heard Mom and Aunt Nora talking. What's happening, Daddy?” Tessa asked, her eyes widening in alarm.

“Everything's okay, sweetheart. I'll tuck you back into bed, okay?”

Tessa shook her head. “Something bad has happened to Uncle Zul! That's what Mom told Aunt Nora. Where is Uncle Zul? Why isn't he home?”

Rohan picked his daughter up. “Uncle Zul is coming home soon,” he promised.

“Is Uncle Zul hurt? Did the Slayors hurt him?” Tessa's lower lip trembled.

Edriq stepped forward and stroked the little girl's hair. “Don't worry, Tessa. Zul will be home in time for your big match. You have the final thumb war coming up, remember? Zul is a sore loser. He'll be really pissed if you won by default.”

Kate's eyes swept across the vast living room and she noticed colorful posters pasted crookedly all over the walls. Most of the posters depicted two thumbs facing off against each other. The smaller thumb wore a crown and there were the words “Princess” and “Champion” scrawled above the crown.
