Chapter Nineteen

For the first part of the drive, Connor sat quietly, ordering his raging dragon to calm the hell down. But the beast was spitting fire and roaring, intent on setting off on a rampage. His dragon didn’t even specify what it wanted to destroy — Draig? His deadbeat father? The entire dragon world?

Anger was nothing new, and neither was frustration. Yearning was often part of that testy cocktail too. But having them mixed with hope and desire — that was totally new. New and dangerous, because he could not — would not — get any closer to Jenna without getting himself under control.

If only it were as easy as she had said. To make the bad parts disappear and hang on to the rest.

“Not far now,” Jenna murmured, shifting into fourth gear.

Connor put his hand over hers on the gearshift and closed his eyes, focusing on her smooth, warm skin, trying to calm down.

“Hang on,” Jenna said, slipping her hand out from under his and placing it on top. “How about this?” She massaged his fingers with her thumb.

“Nice,” Connor whispered.

Her contact had a way of pulling the plug on his dragon’s rage. Instead of vowing death and destruction to all the evil in the world, his dragon slowly shifted its focus to positive thoughts. Jenna…love…kiss…

“Driveway coming up,” she said quietly, as if to check whether he needed more time.

He took a deep breath. How was it possible to be that tuned in to someone in such a short time?

Destiny, an earthy voice rumbled in the back of his mind.

Which was all well and good, but did destiny have something good in store for him, or just a miserable, crashing end?

Good or bad is for you to decide, the voice rumbled. For you to deserve.

He scowled. What was the point of destiny, then?

The voice growled ominously. Destiny steered your mate onto your life’s path. Shall I take her away again?

Connor just about thrust his hands up in surrender. God, no. He didn’t want that. I just have no clue how this works, he wanted to plead. No one ever explained.

The voice laughed remorselessly. All the better. You can learn for yourself.

The hard way, he figured. But okay. He was a master at that.

Just don’t let her get hurt, he pleaded. Please.

The deep voice snorted. She must do her part as well. Perhaps even more than you.

Connor raked his fingers through his hair at the warning in those words. No, no, no! He was supposed to keep Jenna out of danger, not drag her down.

He waited for an answer. Even a cryptic hint would do. But destiny had wandered away again, off to torture some other soul.

“Koa Point,” Jenna said softly, tapping his hand as she waited for the gate to open. “Hey. Time to reboot.”

Connor blinked a couple of times. “Reboot?”

“Yep.” She motioned around. “A clear, starry night. Peace and quiet. And just smell those flowers.”

He sniffed, tentatively at first, then more deeply. He didn’t care about the flowers, but Jenna’s sweet fragrance brought the last bit of calm to his soul.
