I Like Big Dragons and I Cannot Lie (The I Like Big Dragons Series) (14 page)

He started to fill me slowly then, allowing me to look my fill.

Where his hands wrapped around my ankles, opening them wide, I was transfixed as I watched his tattoo pulse with his desire.

I followed his hand down, mystified by the show of veins that popped up all over his arms.

His chest was glistening with sweat from his exertion, and likely my own as well.

His abs bunched and relaxed with each thrust of his hips, and the happy trail of hair that led down to his cock was captivating.

It was his cock, though, that had me transfixed.

Each time he pulled his length from me it was glistening with my juices, and I had the crazy urge to have him in my mouth.

It was insane because of the way his cock felt as it entered me, but I couldn’t shake the desire.

His wants, however, won out.

When I moved my hand between us to feel my opening, stretched wide to accommodate him, to feel his length as it disappeared inside of me, he went wild.

Moving his hands from my ankles to just behind my knees, he folded me like an accordion until my knees were resting just beside my ears, allowing my ass to point to the ceiling.

My ass and half my back was held off the ground by the position, and I suddenly felt Keifer’s cock enter me and not stop until he was forced to by something deep inside of me.

Probably my spine.

But at that point, I was beyond caring because my orgasm knocked me out, stunning me with its arrival and intensity.

My hands met his thighs where my fingers dug in deep.

I could feel my nails puncturing his skin, but I was unable to stop myself. I literally had no control over my body. All of that belonged to Keifer. Every last bit.

Coming, to me, before Keifer, was just a release of some stress. It was a way to make myself feel good and get to sleep at night.

Coming with Keifer was something completely different.

Gone were my inhibitions.

For instance, I yelled so loud I didn’t care whether his brothers, his neighbors or his dragon could hear me. Fuck, but I didn’t care if his mother heard me all the way back at the sanctuary.

Gone was my breath.

I didn’t care about that, either.

I knew Keifer wouldn’t let me die by orgasm. He’d revive me later once he was done.

Gone was my pride. I’d do anything for him. Anything. Crawl. Beg. Steal. Die.

If he wanted me to, I’d do it.

But the thing about Keifer was, I knew that he wouldn’t make me.

Looking up into his eyes as he looked down into my own, something passed between us.

It was as if I saw his soul, and he saw mine. Pieces of our separate lives melded into one whole life.

And I realized what it was to be a dragon rider’s mate.

To be utterly and completely his.

Because that was what I was now, his. And that was what he was, too. Mine.

Chapter 12

Due to unfortunate circumstances, I am awake.

-Coffee Cup

Blythe

It was a month after I mated with Keifer, and in that month, I’d completed my last clinical. I’d taken my final test, and I’d finished my final nursing class.

Today was the day that I would be ‘pinned,’ after which I would walk across the stage to receive my diploma.

I lay in the grass with three sleeping dragons at my sides.

The blue beauties, as I’d started calling the three young dragons that persuaded me to play with them each time I stepped foot outside, were surrounding my prone form.

Juno, my teacher I’d acquired after pissing Kiefer off for the last time, sat at my side.

“Try again,” he ordered.

I opened one eye and glared at him. “I’ve already done it four times. I’m tired of doing it.”

Juno narrowed his eyes at me.

“The reason we’re doing it over and over again is to help you prepare. You’ve begged Prince Keifer to go out by yourself, and the only way you can do that is if he’s satisfied that you’re the best that you can be. You’re good, I’ll give you that, but you wouldn’t stand a chance against a man with a gun,” Juno said patiently.

Groaning, but knowing it was inevitable, I sat up.

“What do you want me to do it on this time?” I asked impatiently.

“Try to reach out to your friend, what’s her name,” he ordered.

I rolled my eyes.

In the time Juno had been working with me, I’d also learned that I was pretty darn good at telepathy.

So good, in fact, that I was considered better than Keifer, which was impressive.

“What I want you to do is concentrate on her in your mind. The way she smells, the way she sounds when you’re talking to her. And once you have the picture of her cemented in your mind, I want you to talk to her,” he instructed.

Grimacing, because I knew it wouldn’t even happen, like it hadn’t the first four times I’d done this, I laid back down and closed my eyes.

What was different about this time, though, was the dragons were at my sides.

Before, they’d been playing around me but not touching me.

This time they were all lying down at my sides, each one of them touching some part of my body.

Thing one, as I so affectionately called him, was the one I felt it come from first.

The knowledge of exactly
how
to do it.

It was similar to what Declan told me in words, but
this
dragon showed me.

I couldn’t really explain it, but I just
saw
how to do it. And do it I did.

Images started filtering through my brain, and a tingling started in my hand, left knee, and right foot where the dragons were laying their heads on me.

Startled at the feeling, I forgot to focus on Brooklyn and instead focused on, well, everyone.

Can you hear me?
I asked, eyes closed.

All I can say was that I sent out a massive message to not just Brooklyn, but Keifer, and well, everyone I knew.

My mind was fogged with everyone all at once. Not that I was aware that’d been what I had done until I started getting words back.

What the fuck?
That was my Brooklyn.

You okay, baby?
Keifer.

Blythe?

What the hell, Blythe?
Nikolai.

Get out of my fuckin’ head!
That was Farrow the Thundercloud
, as I’d started calling him.

Uhh, Blythe? I think you fucked up.
Juno.

Then there were others that I couldn’t quite place.

I knew some of them were the members of the dragon riders.

Good, little one.
Declan.
I’ve been trying to teach that to the young prince for years.

I opened my eyes wide as more and more voices started to pour through my head.

So many that I couldn’t distinguish who was who anymore.

I sensed that they were many, but I couldn’t tell you
how
many.

“How do I turn it off?” I asked the dragons, trying my best not to freak out.

Then, like I was looking into a fucking FaceTime chat on my iPhone, I saw Keifer. Saw exactly what he was doing.

He was down on his knees beside Declan, and he was looking at Declan like something momentous just happened.

“Why are you on your knees?” I asked him.

He blinked, and then started looking around, and I realized I said that out loud.

And he’d still heard me.

“What the fuck,” I gasped breathily. “Why can’t I fucking see?”

I hadn’t meant to allow my voice to get so shrill, but all the voices in my head started talking at once, trying to soothe me, which only served to freak me out further.

Somewhere in the interim, I must’ve over exhausted my body, because the next thing I knew I didn’t have anybody in my head. Mostly because I was passed the hell out.

“Nikolai, get them the fuck away from her!” Keifer roared.

Declan joined in, and I squinted into the setting sun.

I could see from a distance that Keifer was standing next to Declan.

Nikolai was standing next to Perdita.

Behind them I could make out Ford, Alaric, Jean Luc, Dorian and Ian.

Somewhere beyond them I could hear Skylar and Bella.

Then I realized the terrible three were standing at my sides, roaring for all they were worth every time one of them tried to come near.

Juno was on his side six feet away with scratches and bite marks all over him, and I looked at the dragon babies in stunned realization.

They’d attacked him!

Now that they weren’t touching me, I also realized that I could no longer hear the voices.

“Keifer?” I asked, rolling up and immediately dropping back down and rolling to my side when my head started to pound.

The dragons roared once again when Keifer started to step forward, and I placed my hands on the three dragons.

They calmed instantly and became completely docile, watching me with so much affection that I could do nothing but smile.

“You can come closer now,” I told Keifer.

Keifer was on his knees with both of his hands on either side of my head in a heartbeat.

“Are you okay? You scared the fuck out of me,” he gritted out.

I nodded. “Yeah, I’m fine. I feel a little weak, but otherwise fine.”

“What the hell happened?” Nikolai asked, rubbing his head slightly.

I shook my head. “I don’t know. One second I was with Juno,” I looked over to my disheveled teacher to see Skylar at his side, checking his wounds out. “Trying to speak with Brooklyn, and the next I was speaking with everyone at once. The Terrible Three helped me.”

Keifer’s brows lowered. “How did they do that?”

Your princess has a photographic mind, where yours is learned by repetition. All she needed to do was see how it was done, something that the younglings are able to show her since they don’t speak in words yet. She then tapped into their powers and telepathically linked with everyone that you’re linked to,
Declan informed, sliding through my mind.

“Well then, how in the hell did she link to them? She shouldn’t be able to link to them…Ahhhhh…” Keifer said, looking from Declan’s eyes to me, and then moving his eyes down until his gaze settled on my belly. “Fuck me.”

“What?
What is it?” I asked in growing concern.

I could feel a tingle in my brain that I usually felt when Declan and Keifer were mind speaking without me, and I looked in between the both of them before finally Keifer spoke.

“Everybody,” Keifer ordered crisply. “Give us a moment.”

I watched in surprise as every single one of them listened.

Not one of them complained that they’d just been ordered inside. Not even Ian or Farrow the Thundercloud.

“Keifer, what the ever loving…Eeek! What’re you doing?” I asked when his hands suddenly went under my shirt to settle on my lower belly.

“You’re pregnant,” he stated suddenly, moving as close as the dragons at my side would allow him to.

I opened and closed my mouth several times, finally settling on, “I most certainly am not!”

The outrage was even evident to the dragons, who looked up at me with stars in their eyes.

“Declan smelled it on you…you are,” he explained.

“Well, his sniffer is wrong,” I crossed my arms accusingly. “You’re wrong!” I snapped to the big beast lying on his side, sunning his belly.

Am not,
slithered through my brain.

Lying dragon.

If you don’t believe me, go pee on a rabbit.

I blinked quickly.

“Why would I pee on a rabbit?” I asked Keifer in confusion.

Keifer snorted.

“That’s how they used to tell if you were pregnant before pregnancy tests. Injecting a rabbit with a female’s urine. If she were pregnant, the rabbit would die,” Keifer explained, his hands going to my flat belly with the utmost care.

I slapped his hands, but he stayed where he was, closing his eyes like he was concentrating.

“What are you doing?” I asked frantically.

He smiled. “Looking for an energy trace.”

I blinked, startled.

“You can do that?” I asked.

He nodded. “Sometimes. I’ve got to borrow energy from my brother to do it, though.”

I tilted my head. “You can do
that
?”

He grinned.

“Yeah. Did I forget to tell you that?” He teased.

I shook my head.

The man had been toying with me, I could tell.

As if he wasn’t already strong enough, now I find out that, if he is in need of more power, all he has to do is call on his brothers and poof!

More power!

The sex we’d shared on the floor of his office had been wonderful, don’t get me wrong, but it was also a bone of contention with us.

I wasn’t really fond of feeling powerless, and I’d asked him to help me
not
be powerless.

Which was when he’d started teaching me all that he knew.

Except I’d found that Keifer wasn’t the best of teachers, and I wasn’t the best of students.

We were more like the popular kid and the nerd in high school.

One really wanted to learn, and the other was there to have fun.

Keifer proved to be more of the latter part.

Which was why he’d pulled Juno up from the Alabama sanctuary and designated him with the task of teaching me.

“Keifer, I’m on birth control, and have been for six years now.
I’ve even been getting my period! I got it two weeks ago!” I told him
. “That’s not possible to know yet—even if I were to admit that there might be a possibility.”

His eyes found mine and he grinned.

Then I felt power wash through me.

Keifer’s power.

But also a little bit of Nikolai as well.

How I knew it was some of Nikolai’s, I didn’t know.

It smelled like him mostly.

Or maybe felt like him.

I’d come to know Nikolai really well over the last month.

He’d joined in in teaching me the ropes, much less enthusiastically than Keifer, but he’d done it nonetheless.

“There it is,” Keifer breathed, eyes going wide in wonder.

And that feeling, the one telling me I was wrong and my argument no longer held ground, started to course through me.
