ridiculous. What if you had never met me?”
    “We would have ultimately been drawn to each other.”
    “How sure are you of that?”
    “Quite. All dragon shifters have found their mates, even if their lives were
    headed in different directions, something would always happen to lead them into each other's arms.”
    “So what happens if you dragon shifters tempt fate? What happens if you go
    rogue and marry someone that isn’t destined to be yours?”
    “Madness. Oblivion. We lose ourselves and become something that is almost
    unrecognizable.”
    “Interesting.” He finished off the rest of his brown beans and toast. “I’m stuffed.
    I think I’ll retire for the night. It’s been one hell of a long day.”
    She drained the last drop of tea out of her cup and stood up with him. “It has.
    Your bedroom has an in suite bathroom as does mine. You should get cleaned up. You have a soot mark on your cheek. Your self cleaning spell dealt with Denys’s blood—but you missed a few spots.” She reached over and gingerly touched his cheek. He pulled back as if her touch burned him.
    “Thanks for the advice.” He stood up and strode out of the room. Walking to her sitting room, she moved to the safe she’d had installed in the wall. Opening it, she reached in for her crystal globe. Setting it on her table, she touched the top of it.
    Mists and fire swirled in the globe. When it cleared, her contact was revealed.
    “Blaze … how goes the war?”
    “Not good, Grania. We lost another one hundred warriors today alone. The front lines are crumbling. We’ve asked the king and queen to retreat to Earth, but they remain steadfast.”
    “As their son, why are you so surprised by their reaction?”
    “I’m not. I’m just disappointed. I wish they’d see sense.”
    “Even if Draco does win the war, they won’t be safe on Earth. Draco will turn his attention to Earth when he’s done with Dragonia. That was his original intent when he started the war. The only reason he’s fighting this civil war is so that he can crown himself the rightful ruler of all Dragonia.”

    “Then, he’ll have to kill us all.”
    Fear stabbed her heart. “Blaze, don’t do anything foolish. You know he will eat you for breakfast if you stand directly in his path.”
    “If you weren’t guarding that bloody wizard, you’d be here with me. You are one of the few that can keep my frightful temper in check.”
    “Just keep thinking of what I’d do if I were there and don’t forget to count to ten before you do anything rash.”
    “Well, why don’t you keep me from doing something rash by lighting a fire under Lightfoot’s ass? We need that spell soon. If Draco gets into the capitol .…”
    “I know. It will be akin to Rome burning.”
    “Indeed.”
    The sound of a chair being knocked over caught her attention. Urgency pulled at her being. “I hate to cut this chat short, Blaze. But I think I have a situation on my hands.”
    “What sort of a situation?”
    “A great escape. Houdini style.”
    “Oh, crap. If you lose him, there’s no telling if we’ll ever be able to track him down. Our resources are spread dreadfully thin.”
    “I won’t let him escape me. You know full well that no male can escape the
    Mating Fire.”
    “Oh, no! Don’t tell me he’s the one that’s destined for you. If the reports on him are accurate, I feel for you. You have a difficult journey ahead of you. And it’s not going to be strewn with roses.”
    “I know. The fates mock me. They must be having a grand laugh as we speak.”
    “I’m sorry, Grania.”
    “Don’t be sorry. He’s not that bad of a chap. He’s got a huge ego, and he’s got a big mouth .…”
    “Sounds to me as if you’re already falling for him.”
    “I didn’t realize how strong the pull of the dragon’s heart could be. Maybe we should just become completely human—I’m wondering if our dragon side makes us
    weak. I do think less
