.He spoke in that odd language again, andBlaze twitched back with a grunt as simultaneous feelings of hotand cold shot through him."There, you shouldn't have anyproblems now.I think with time you may have overcome thecompulsion on your own."Blaze shook his head."So why the hell do you have Cam? Ithought you Mordred couldn't have dragons.And you havedragon eyes.I've never heard of fighters knights whateverwith dragon eyes.""They do with Pendragons," Ken said sourly, before Amrcould reply."Pendragons and their owners their princes cancommunicate telepathically.And if you thought he was a cockyson of a bitch before, there will be no living with him now." Heglared back when Amr shot him a look.Rafael petted Conway as he pushed through the crowd tostand with Amr."I felt that.dominance when we first metCam.Conway called him a 'master dragon', but I barely feel itnow.I think in a few days, or possibly just a few hours, I won'tfeel it at all.""You've claimed your dragon," Amr explained."You're aborn leader, you know you are; that you've endured as much asyou have for the sake of your people your dragons, ratherproves that.You are coming into your own, a ruler in your ownright."Ken snorted over his coffee cup."So now we have KingArthur and Queen Guinevere here in the kitchen?"Blaze's gut twisted.Flippant or not, the words seemed toring true.Both Amr and Rafael were tall and classy, with that airof power that someone like him would never possess.Theycontrasted beautifully Rafael all light and gold, Amr dark andshadowy.They looked stunning together.If they started asyndicate, or tried to destroy the syndicates and do somethingnew, they could and would.He was a fool to think someone like Rafael would ever lookat him that way, even if there had been that one weird moment139 | Megan Derr  Sword of the Kingin the kitchen.It sounded cool to say 'fire and ice' but thatdidn't mean the two actually mingled.Tucking the hurt away, because it was stupid to feelanything after only a couple of days anyway, Blaze tried to puthis mind on business."So what the hell do we do now? I knowthat if Rust finds out that his prize dragon just got claimed, andby someone who shouldn't be involved at all, he'll go ballistic.Ican't imagine Leo taking the news any better.""Keeping Amr out of his sight is a good start," Rafael said."We'll just have to muscle through Leo's visit, wait until Leo isgone, and then get the hell out of here.No matter what, wecan't stay here any longer.I'm going to call in this grocery list,add some supplies we can take with us." He slipped out of thekitchen to make the call.Blaze stroked Erie's head, then pushed away from thecounter."I'm going to go for a walk.Can I leave you twounsupervised? Cause I think we have enough problems withoutyour clan feud or whatever.""Oh, we'll be fine," Amr said, shooting Ken a look that Kenreturned with full hostility."We have things to discuss.""Have fun, don't break anything," Blaze said, wonderingwhen the fuck he'd become house mother and when he wasgoing to get paid for it.That reminded him that he should pullout as much money as he could from his account, because Rustwouldn't waste time cutting off all of Blaze's funds the minutehe found out about Blaze's betrayal.Blaze put the matter aside for the moment and left thehouse with Erie at his heels.He probably should have brought ajacket, but the chill was mild, more pleasant than not, andwalking would warm him quickly.Erie prowled around the property as they walked, gettinginto and investigating everything, and growling as they passedthrough the place where Ken had come close to dying closerthan he probably realized.When they got closer to the lake, Blaze walked along thebank, just out of range of the water.Well, he stayed out of140 | Megan Derr  Sword of the Kingrange; Erie of course went straight for it and immediately beganto splash about."Dragon, if you get me wet I will destroy you."Making clicking-chirping sounds of laughter, Erie paused insplashing and turned, tensed"Don't even!" Blaze backed up a step, but it was too late,and he went down with squawk of protest as Erie tackled him."Get off me, dragon!"Instead, Erie shifted, and Blaze decided that was anacceptable compromise.He ran his hands down Erie's body,tugging him close, and sighed softly as Erie took his mouth in ahungry kiss, leaving his lips bruised and sore."Good dragon?""Brat dragon," Blaze replied, laughing when that got him abite to his shoulder that would definitely leave a mark."Stopputting holes in my clothes, dragon [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
