We’re invisible, my dragon reminds me, and I relax.
We have to return to the office and alert everyone that Taylor is in danger.
We can’t leave her here with him watching, my dragon points out.
He is right, but there isn’t much I can do with Taylor ignoring my calls. At least he seems to be just watching.
We fly back at top speed to Druk Technologies.
Once back, I shift into my human form and run to Lex’s office.
I don’t bother to knock and am met with an eyeful.
Nic is in Lex’s lap, and they are making out heavily.
“Knocking exists,” Nic says as she stands up and straightens her blouse.
“Whatever, this doesn’t matter,” I start gesturing between the pair. “Carnelian is back.”
Lex’s eyes widen.
“How do you know?”
“Well, my dragon needed to come out, so we to the roof and I let him free. We flew all around and we ended up by Taylor’s house.”
Lex gives me a look.
“Yes, I know, creepy, but it's a good thing I did. I wasn’t the only dragon at her place. Carnelian was there, flying above her house.”
“This isn’t good,” Lex says.
“I know, we need to protect Taylor.”
“We’ll send security to her follow her, but in the meantime, at least we know the truth.”
My eyebrows furrow. “What truth?”
“Taylor Montgomery is your mate.”
Hearing the words said so clear and honest makes my heart skip a beat.
I told you so, my dragon brags.
Yeah, yeah,I say back.
A smile morphs onto my lips.
Taylor is my mate.
It explains all the emotions I have been feeling lately and helps me know that I am not going crazy.
Taylor is meant to be mine and I am meant to be hers. That thought alone excites me in a way I have never felt before.My dragon preens, and I want nothing more than to fly back to the Montgomery household and snatch Taylor up in my arms. But I can’t do that. Not now when she’s mad at me.
“What do I do?”
Lex shrugs. “In two days' time, we will be in court. We shall protect her until then. Then we will figure out his mate thing.”
“Okay,” I say, though worry still fills me.
