Flint’s heart seized.

Galena snoozed softly on the silver bench.

He paced the cavern.

The medic reminded him that he still had his own injuries to be tended. A few long scratches, some strains and bruising. Normally, they wouldn’t waste the materials on such minor healing, but evidently, the medic thought he might need every ounce of strength. Flint accepted the mild healing with his thoughts elsewhere.

He was the smallest and least powerful dragon on the Palace grounds, possibly on the planet.

And he had to protect Galena.

Because she could no longer protect herself.

This was a nightmare.

As soon as the last scratch sealed, he was up again, pacing.

His third sibling, Kyan, was former black ops, with the highest level of tactical and security training. He still had contacts with his old unit, but the Black Shadows were under the rule of General Ragiosa.

And Kyan was low caste. He couldn’t enter the Palace grounds. Not even on the prestige of his former rank.

Flint paced faster.

His old plan had been to bleed away the assets of the five families slowly and establish dominance over decades. The eldest advisers would die off by the time any major events reached a ruling in the full council.

He was supposed to take years to move the different businesses to Earth, not send them all in a single court ruling.

It was happening too fast, changes falling like an avalanche, and now Galena couldn’t do anything to jeopardize his dragonlet.

His dragonlet.

His heart squeezed and contracted. Even conceiving a dragonlet was supposed to take time. In some cases, years! Not on, if the medic’s timeline was to be believed, their first union.

Flint had planned for every contingency but this one.

Galena looked so tiny as a human resting on a dragon-sized recovery bench. Peaceful, but also fragile. She would fight to the death to protect him. Now, to protect their dragonlet.

And she’d looked so gray right before she’d collapsed.

He couldn’t let that happen ever again.

Ever.

He had to plan an emergency exit. How to trick, bluff, and escape any attackers that overwhelmed her security. Rioters, battle-hardened fighters, or brutal dragons Galena could have easily crushed before now had to be managed and evaded while looking natural.

If they sensed weakness, her enemies would attack. Fairness and legality would not trouble them. Might made right in the Dragon Empire, and no one would avenge her untimely death.

He needed to come up with a plan so clever, it would look like she was stepping behind a door to casually take off her gown and shift…only to disappear into the night long before anyone realized she was gone.

He would, of course, be the one to watch her back and guard her escape route.

Even though that would be his last act.

After Flint came up with a growing tree of escape routes, he trained his mind to the second, and possibly more critical, task.

Coming up with the cover story that made all this plausible.

Why she collapsed, why she couldn’t shift, and why no one else could either.

That required finesse.

Galena had gotten this far.
