The Dragon Thief Chapter 56: Bynjym's Protection
But in her gaze, a storm of stars,A sorrow deep as dragon scars.She sheds the mask, the truth she speaks,Of hidden days and stolen weeks.RyukiI know I won’t always be able to fly with Skylar in my arms. Soon enough, Cyryl will be flying and she’ll have her own dragon to ride. But it feels so good to have her in my arms, especially after everything that happened last night.When I woke this morning, I was terrified that she’d reject me and push me away. I did everything I could to make last night bearable for both of us, but a dragon’s desire is very powerful.Thankfully, while she’s obviously embarrassed about what happened, she’s not pushing me away. Hopefully, very soon, she’ll realize that this is just part of our life. It’s who we are once we become dragon riders.I close my eyes as we fly, taking this moment to just enjoy having her in my arms, holding me tightly like she is.‘You did very well last night,’ Bynjym says.‘That was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do
The Dragon Thief Chapter 55: Living in the Wild
And Ryuki waits, with sword and flame,To stand beside her, stake his claim.Together now, the fire burns,The tide will shift, the balance turns.SkylarI wake up feeling very strange. I have a vague recollection of feeling out of control and naughty in a way I’ve never felt before.When I open my eyes, the sun is high in the sky. It feels late, like I’ve slept much later than normal. When I start to sit up, I realize there’s an arm over my waist and the heat I feel behind me is Ryuki.That’s not unusual. What is unusual is that I’m completely naked and I smell like … oh my god!I sit up quickly and look at Ryuki. Did we …? Did he …?‘Oh yes, he did. Ymyl had her mating flight, do you remember?’ Cyryl asks.My hand goes to my stomach. I’m sore in places I’ve never been sore before. My stomach feels like I’ve got mild cramps, my breasts and nipples feel extremely sensitive, and between my legs I feel …‘Well used?’ Cyryl asks. I can hear the smirk in her tone.‘Cyryl, this isn’t funny!
The Dragon Thief Chapter 54: Mating Haze
For love is fierce when bonds run deep,And dragon hearts no cage can keep.Let kingdoms fall and empires break, The Dragon Thief will rise, awake.RyukiIn the past, when Bynjym would leave to avoid mating a red or blue, I’d go with him. I gave into the dragon-induced haze once with Mara, but the next day, everything felt strange. I have a higher position in the thunder than the red and blue riders, so it made things strange between us for a few days. Add to that, Mara doesn’t discriminate when it comes to lovers. Being a rider means we’re free from the constraints that society puts on us. We live freely and that means we can have and take as many lovers as we want, as long as that doesn’t cause friction in the thunder.For me, once was all it took to realize that I didn’t want to do it again, until now. Skylar is different. Not only is she a queen’s rider, but I’ve already started developing feelings for this woman. I want her and I know Bynjym wants Cyryl. The only way to salvage t
The Dragon Thief Chapter 53: Shedding and Mating Flight
Still Skylar walks the narrow ledge,Her oath writ deep on mountain’s edge:To steal, to save, to pay the price,To shield the hatchling’s sacrifice.SkylarIt felt like my life went into fast forward the moment the hatchlings joined us. Life became simple. Feed the hatchlings, let them sleep, spend time with Cyryl, try to sleep, repeat.Cyryl’s annoyance with her hatchlings is obvious and on multiple occasions, I’ve had to step in to keep the peace. As a queen, she expects her hatchlings to do what she says. However, they aren’t old enough yet to understand the hierarchy of her being their future leader. To them, she’s just their fellow hatchling and they don’t care what she’s saying when they're hungry.It doesn’t take the other hatchlings long to realize that the silvers favor their sister, rather than them. However, no matter how much they cry, Bynjym and Pytryck only feed Cyryl and Ylys when she stays behind to help guard the hatchlings. Yntyn and Thyyd both bring food back for th
The Dragon Thief Chapter 52: The Catalyst
In elder days when flame met air,And dragons ruled the heavens fair,Where once they soared on winds of grace,Now storm and sorrow take their place.RyukiYttyc is really uncomfortable to ride.‘That’s because you were meant to be a silver’s rider, not a bronze’s rider,’ Bynjym says.‘I can’t believe he let me ride him.’Bynjym is quiet for a moment.‘It says a lot about the power of our future queens. I don’t know if queens in the past who bonded with riders had this same power, or if we’ve reached a time when our thunder is on the cusp of strengthening, but the dominion that Cyryl and Skylar wield with our thunder is unheard of.’It’s not just power, I realize. They have a way of getting the other dragons to do what they want them to do because the dragons are so anxious to please them.‘That’s a very interesting insight. You’re right, my rider. All the dragons want to please them. They want to please Cyryl mostly because she will be their queen and they want to gain favor with her
The Dragon Thief Chapter 51: A Queen's Impact
But in her breast, another fire,Not born of greed, nor dark desire.She hears the cries no court will heed,Of dragons torn, of mothers’ need.Skylar‘Cyryl!’ I say, knowing I need to go to Nyry. I don’t know if the royals are still after her, but as an injured blue, she’ll be difficult to calm.‘Go. Bynjym, do not let anything happen to my rider!’‘I will kill them if they come near her,’ he growls.“I take it you’re riding with me?” Ryuki asks, wrapping his arm around my waist and lifting me up as he quickly races up Bynjym’s back.He gets us settled just as Bynjym lifts into the sky.‘Jyshy, go with them, along with four other bronzes. The other half stay with the silvers to guard the hatchlings,’ Cyryl says.‘Ylys, you need to stay to guard the hatchlings, too,’ I tell her when she lifts into the sky to join us.‘But Nyry …’‘We will get her and bring her here,’ Bynjym says to her, flying fast to get back to Nyry.‘Tell me what happened,’ I say as we fly.“They must have already b

**A special thank you to my Delta, Angela, for writing the poem that you'll see throughout this novel.Let this be read in whispered halls,Where shadows linger and embers call.A tale of fire, of sky, of strife,Of stolen eggs and secret life.SkylarI look at myself in the mirror as my maids put
The Dragon Thief Chapter 49: A Night Together
Ryuki, forged in flight and flame,Would die before he brought them shame.Their hearts entwine like roots of old,In love unbought, in legends bold.RyukiI’m thrilled that Skylar seems to understand her role as the queen’s rider. I’m even more excited that she's asking us to be by their side as t
The Dragon Thief Chapter 38: Queens
But in her gaze, a storm of stars,A sorrow deep as dragon scars.She sheds the mask, the truth she speaks,Of hidden days and stolen weeks.SkylarI have no idea what just came over me. I kissed Ryuki. I kissed him and my entire body responded.That never happened with Kenneth. My body didn’t respo
The Dragon Thief Chapter 36: Attack
To him, the eggs are not a prize,But children born beneath the skies.He fights to free them, wing and scale,A rider sworn to truth’s own tale.Skylar‘How are you feeling? I was worried about you,’ Cyryl says as I lean against her body. She wraps her tail protectively around me as we watch Bynjym
