SNEAK PEEK: THE DRAGON QUEEN & HER MATES
They said happily ever after is supposed to be a fairytale. I’d come from a dark fairytale that turned out to be so bright. My four mates wanted me more than anything in the universe and cherished me every second of the day. I believed in true love, but I also believed that you had to keep fighting for love and never take each other for granted.
But to be honest, sometimes I did wonder if it were but a dream that I had four hot mates who tasted sinfully divine. And sometimes I had nightmares that convinced me that I was still the three Fury beasts shrieking above the jungle with unbearable loneliness and unquenchable rage. Whenever I had those bad dreams, one of my mates would wake me up, cradle me in his arms, and then bury his massive cock deep inside me to persuade me that he was real, and they were all real.
My dragon princes also suffered nightmares every now and then.
“Fuck,” Iokul said. “I dreamed about painting the demon bitch’s toes again. It was the most disgusting thing I’ve ever done. Fuck.”
“You took the blunt hit for us, brother,” Rai said, giving Iokul an appreciative look. “We did what we had to do. We’ll do it again if we must to keep our mate safe.”
“Next time, one of you will do the toes,” Iokul said. “Because I’m done with them.”
“What about our mate’s toes?” Elvey asked with a smirk. “Will you deny Daisy the pleasure? If you could paint other woman’s toes—”
I gave Elvey a scolding glare, but he intentionally avoided my eyes.
“Well, in that case—” Iokul sighed.
“No more toe-painting on anyone,” I said firmly. “Not now, not ever.”
All of my dragon mates looked relieved.
“I don’t mind painting your lovely toes, dearest,” Elvey said. “And I’ll even suckle them to make you feel really good.”
My toes curled, and I suppressed a moan.
Blaze and Rai glared at Elvey. Even Iokul, his best pal now, sent him a look of disapproval.
“Since you all mentioned it,” I asked. “Why did you have to do it physically, Iokul, when you could have used the glamour you borrowed from Elvey?”
“The damned demigod forbade us to use his glamour for ‘trivial things.’ Those were his words,” Blaze explained for Iokul, since his brother didn’t want to sell Elvey out. “We didn’t want to mess it up and have the demon bitch finding out about the glamour. So, we used it only when absolutely necessary, like in the end.”
In the end, when Tianna had thought all of my dragon kings had betrayed me and were fucking her, they’d only fucked with her mind.
Still, the memory of that fake act haunted me like a lasting bad taste. I wasn’t beyond pettiness.
“Do you know how hard it was to restrain ourselves from touching you,” Iokul whispered under his breath, his silver eyes flashing with torment, “when all we ever wanted was to touch you and hold you.”
“We had to fight so hard not to come to you, so we wouldn’t ruin the plan,” Blaze said, his golden eyes turning molten in anguish. “The nights were most difficult. We got used to holding you in sleep. We pined for your soft, warm body curling around us.”
“I was the one who truly hurt you,” Rai said, shadow of guilt, shame, and anger coating his sapphire eyes. “I laid my hands on you.”
The memory of him backhanding me by accident and sending me across the ground flashed before my eyelids. It’d hurt him more than it’d hurt me. He still couldn’t forgive himself for that.
“If you never want me again, I—I don’t know what to do,” he said, his voice breaking, his eyes pleading.
I’d denounced all three of them in Tianna’s former court. I’d struck back harder at them in double revenge. And I’d learned that both Iokul and Blaze had punched Rai and
