    I live in Pahrump, NV with my husband who has given me a fairy-tale marriage. I am a seventeen time published author. I have been writing short stories all my life. I've had a fascination with vampires since I was a child so that tends to be my subject matter. Halloween is my favorite holiday! I enjoy hanging out with family and friends, reading, writing reviews, watching movies, Reiki and listening to music. I'm intrigued by the paranormal and enjoy doing research for my stories. I was an exchange student in Brasil during high school so you will find references to that in some of my stories. I'm living the American Dream!

      Acknowledgements

      There are so many people I need to thank that really helped me get this book out there and seen. First, I have to thank my Editor, Jessica Sawa who always makes my books sound good. Next, I tried my hand at cover designing for this book but it would never have gotten done had it not been for the amazing Brandi Kennedy (an Author herself, check her stuff out at authorbrandikennedy.blogspot.com) helping walk me through the program and its features. Jolinda from Swag-A-Licious makes the most amazing prizes so make sure you look her up with the same name on Facebook. Thanks to all my Ladies!!!

      Dedication

      As always, it is to my husband that I dedicate this book. He was the one saying, You need to incorporate paranormal creatures’ other than just vampires into your stories which made me come up with the dragon idea. So, without his encouragement, I wouldn’t have had the courage to branch out and add a dragon shifter to my series.

      He has given me a fairy tale marriage. He is my best friend, my sweetie, my muse, and my soul soldier. He is my light during my dark times and everything in between. Without him, there would be no me. His encouragement is what gets me through some of my writing bouts and keeps me plugging away. Some of him is in all my books in one way or another. Thank you, hubby!

      Chapter One

      As Larissa lay there that day, curled up in Lance’s sleeping arms, the magnitude of what’d happened finally hit her. She was no longer special or the leader of her dragon clan. Now it was just Lance and her…someone she barely knew but knew she owed him her life. Ever since they met as children on the beach that night, she’d never been able to get him out of her mind and now here she was with him but what exactly were her feelings for him? She’d never ‘loved’ anyone before that she could recall but Lorvolth often spoke of the love of another. She’d been a big softy and Larissa was going to miss her.

      She decided to take a nap even though it was daylight but she was already comfortable in Lance’s arms on the blanket on the floor so she didn’t want to move. She figured she’d only nap about two hours and then she’d go exploring the rest of the castle. When she woke up, she was alone and it was dusk outside. She sat up quickly, frightened. Suddenly Lance was at her side.

      My Dearest. I didn’t want to wake you up as you looked so peaceful he said. She blushed but he suddenly had his arms wrapped around her and her fear was immediately gone. I found us some lanterns we can use to maneuver around the castle so we can see what’s here. You up for some exploration?

      Of course! she said jumping up. He chuckled at her enthusiasm. He leaned down, lit two lanterns, handed one to her, took her other hand in his and started to lead her through the castle.

      It was completely furnished with sheets covering all the furniture. He chased her from room to room, each of them grabbing sheets as they ran around each room, giggling the entire way. This instantly made the castle a little homier yet dusty. Lastly, they found the master bedroom with blacked out curtains so they could sleep in there as it wouldn’t hurt Lance. That was a much better option than the floor Larissa decided. There were clean sheets and blankets in the closet for the bed so they tag-teamed and remade the bed so it would be fresh for them when Lance was ready for bed near dawn. She’d never shared a bed with anyone, let alone a man so she was nervous that night when he headed to bed.

      That night, he’d asked her to join him ‘just until he fell asleep’ so she complied. They lay there, facing each other with their arms and legs tangled together, bodies almost touching. He gently took a stray strand of her hair that’d fallen forward and put it back in place. He found himself being drawn to her ear and down the side of her neck. He had to put that aside as she was not a vampire so he couldn’t feed from her like the others that were always around him in his family’s castle. He settled for running his fingertips down the side of her face, around her jaw and finally ended by rubbing her bottom lip with his thumb. As they both stared at each other’s lips, she sucked hers in her mouth and he gasped.

      What? Are you okay? she asked, concerned.

      Of course. I’m with you. That’s all I need. You are so beautiful that you take my breath away. Again, she blushed.

      You are very handsome as well she admitted. They continued to stare at each other.

      May I kiss you? he suddenly asked.

      Kiss me? He nodded ‘yes’. I’ve never kissed anyone before she admitted to him.

      Just follow my lead he said as he leaned in closer and pressed his lips to hers and lingered there. A jolt of electricity passed between their bodies. When he pulled back, she put her fingertips up to feel her own lips. They were tingling in a very pleasant way to her. She unexpectedly leaned forward and pressed her lips back to his. As he opened his cold mouth, she followed along and when he placed his tongue inside her mouth, she stifled a giggle but followed him. As their tongues moved in and out of each other’s mouths, it was as the world around them just faded away. They both started feeling a draw to each other bodies but that really scared Larissa so she ignored it. Finally, she was too hot and excited that she broke the kissing between them.

      I just thought of something! she sat up, exclaiming, also hoping to change the subject.

      What’s that Dear?

      You haven’t fed…what’s going to happen to you?

      I fed in the forest. I can go about a week now without feeding so I’m okay he smiled.

      Why are you smiling at me?

      It’s cute that you’re concerned about me. Feels good he admitted. I’ve never had anyone who truly cared about the real me. It was usually because I was the heir to the throne, not because they liked me for me. With you, it’s different. You’re not looking to be with me for my throne but you’re here for the real me. It’s just a different feeling for me. I’m not used to it he smiled looking deep into her eyes. She smiled back.

      I’ve never been with another person in this capacity, male or female so all this is new to me. I feel like, though, that I can trust you with my heart and soul. He pulled his head back from hers.

      ’Heart and soul’?

      Yes. I don’t know where that came from but I guess that’s how I truly feel. He pulled her even closer into a tight embrace and lip to lip kiss. She was starting to get used to this kissing thing with him and she really liked it. As they lay there in each other’s arms, Lance was starting to get tired as dawn was approaching. As he drifted off, she felt the rumbling in her stomach. She just realized she hadn’t eaten in
