Theron

—

Perhaps I’m going insane.

Or at least some sort of sickness has taken over me. It can only explain why I let myself even consider kissing Seela let alone almost doing it.

What’s worse is knowing that she waited for it. Her eyes begged me as much as her body did. The scent of her arousal goaded my dragon and I almost took the bait.

My cock is hard and I’m half convinced I should barge into her room after her and show her what she does to me.

I head outside instead. Climbing onto the balcony railing, I leap off and shift into my dragon mid-air. It’s dangerous, but I enjoy the thrill of watching the ground rush toward me before I escape a gruesome impact with a few pumps of my wings.

The higher I fly, the cooler the atmosphere, and it calms me. Eventually, night arrives. It reminds me that I should have been at the conference in Seca, strengthening Andrasar’s relationship with the region, one Aphat almost destroyed with a pointless war.

Instead I raced back to Andrasar when Eyin called me with the news of Ronan imprisoning the humans, Seela among them.

Why I would go to such lengths to ensure a human’s safety is something I refuse to ponder. It’s for the same reason why I don’t want to read into the fury stewing inside me for Ronan. He dared to touch what is mine. He imprisoned her and threatened to harm her.

What Seela divulged about Ronan bothers me. How long has this been going and how have I not heard anything about it?

Trusting Seela seems unwise because it’s hard for me to accept someone as good and honest like her exists. Yet I believe her. Even though I dislike humans because they constantly remind me of what I’ve lost, I’ve come to an apathetic acceptance of their presence in Andrasar.

However, the hate Ronan has for humans knows no comparison. I have aided in Aphat’s campaign to terrorize them, but it thrives because of Ronan.

While I understand the reasoning behind it, I can’t accept and support Ronan’s injustices against our kind.

Returning home, I put on fresh clothing and resist the temptation to open Seela’s door as I walk past it. I head to Ronan’s office, finding him sharing company and a bottle of wine with Aphat.

Aphat levels his usual hostile stare at me, whereas I conceal the hatred I feel for him and greet him with respect.

“I didn’t expect your return this early, Theron,” says Ronan coolly, his gaze sharp. “Was the purpose of the conference unsuccessful?”

“The meetings were concluded sooner than anticipated,” I say. “Seca accepted our peace offering and agreed to lift the trading ban against Andrasar.”

“That old fuck dead yet?” Aphat asks, his eyes glittering with evil delight. “I heard he was set to meet Kahafura any moment.”

“Nai Adan informed me his father is still alive.”

A lie of course. Adan was tight-lipped about his toha’s health when I asked. Nevertheless, the words have the desired effect. Aphat’s face goes sour like a child who’s had his sweet stolen from his grasp.
