awake for a few weeks, it isn’t him.”

“Not him then, but if he doesn’t get here with the sandwiches soon, I’m going after him. A girl’s got to eat,” Alana said.

“You just had a muffin. Draco was kind enough to return to the bakery and get you sandwiches when you needed more sustenance.” Legion’s smile was slow in coming. “I look forward to your courtship, Alana. I’m sure it will be... enlightening.”

Alana glanced up at him with hard eyes. “Prick.”

Legion shrugged. “Perhaps. It doesn’t change the fact that we need to find that onyx circle.”

Chapter 19

Legion touched Mara’s face. While she smiled, her pain concerned his dragon. “Are you okay?’

Mara touched his hand. “I will be. What is our next move?”

Legion squeezed her hand before releasing it. “We need to figure out where Devlin would keep the artifact.”

Mara grabbed her teacup from the coffee table. “If I had to guess, then I would say the gallery. It has an exclusive security system and houses pieces worth millions of dollars.”

Legion shook his head. “Those security measures are meaningless to a druid or dragon. The circle will manifest a security system of its own in order to hide it from magical beings.”

Mara sipped her tea. “That makes sense, but the circle is thousands of years old, it would be worth millions of dollars on the black market. Devlin would need to protect it from human predators and magical ones.”

Legion raised an eyebrow. “I had not considered its monetary worth.”

Mara cleared her throat. “No, I don’t suppose you would. Can you tell if there’s a magical spell protecting it, if you’re close enough?”

Legion rubbed his chin. “Perhaps, but that does not guarantee I can break the spell.”

Mara smiled at him. “We should go to the gallery. If we go during operating hours as patrons, we can walk around and see if you get any vibes.”

Legion turned her face to his. “It’s a good idea.” His thumb caressed her lip. “You are eager to find the circle, but your heart is laden.”

Mara glanced at the door. Alana and Natalie had gone downstairs to check on Tempest. “My family betrayed me. Alana and my mother had a secret bond and planned to keep me oblivious to my heritage. Would I have ever known if I displayed no power?”

Legion shook his head. “You would have lived out your life in the human world and never known about the druids. The rules about secrecy are to protect creatures of magic. Your mother was following a set of laws laid out thousands of years ago, and they swore Alana to that secrecy. I am not sure why you failed the preliminary druid tests they give young girls to see if they have dormant magic present, but I imagine it was the temple protecting you.”

Mara pulled from his grasp. “It still hurts.”

“I know. You mentioned you had a minimal ability of telekinesis. How come your sister and mother never considered that dormant power would mature?”

Mara bit the side of her cheek. “I never told them. Only Natalie knew about the TK. Kids at school already called me a freak because of the shop my parents owned. I didn’t want to add to it.”

Legion took her hand. “Understood. I know it will be hard, but you have to forgive your sister.”

Mara looked away. “I’m not sure I can.”

Legion hated the sadness on Mara’s face. With all his power, he could do nothing to remove the ache in his mate’s heart. The betrayal burned through their shared bond. “I do not believe it was your sister’s intention to hurt you. She believed she was protecting you.”

Mara shook her head. “I don’t care what anyone says. Alana shouldn’t have kept this from me. It destroyed our relationship, and knowing my mother had a hand in it, is devastating.” She waved her hand erratically. “I hate this. All I wanted was to go to art school and be normal, not be the last seer and have the weight of the dragon species hanging over me. I can’t breathe.”

Legion touched her face. “Let me show you the beauty of our world. Since finding out you are druid, you have not had a moment’s peace.” He picked her up, ignoring her protests as he carried her to her bedroom. He stood her up after closing the door. His blazing eyes dared her to deny his claim. To refuse the fire that burned within them. She could feel it now. His lust. His fury. The anger he had not courted her as he should have. His blind belief in her betrayal festered like a blister in his soul, and only she could bring salvation.

He peeled her clothes off, letting her know with each intense gaze he would accept nothing, but her full surrender and intense pleasure. His emotions rippled through the bond. Anticipation. Arousal. Desire. A wicked smile formed on his lips, before he bent his head to draw an erect nipple into his lips.

She moaned. Her body melted against his, every nerve ending as inflamed as his. He sucked the erect bud hard, then licked away the sting of pain. His mouth was hot. Hungry. Demanding.

She moved her hips against his bulging jeans, her hands desperate as they pulled open the button fly to allow his thick cock to spring free. Her hand caressed the velvet shaft as she tried to get closer to his body. Heat and lust electrified the surrounding air. “Please, Legion,” she whispered.

Her ragged plea raced over his skin and thundered in his ears. His hand slipped down her stomach to the slick heat between her legs. She moaned low as his fingers parted the silky flesh. His fingers moved inside her; it took only seconds before she began moving her hips to ride his hand.

Legion’s body hardened to the point of pain. Will alone kept his body from flying apart. The steady burn of desire fueled the magic raging within him. All centered on the beautiful
