Chapter Three

Mated To The Dragon- Chapter Three

Mmmmhhh...

It happened again, Scarlet heard it. It was the

moaning noise from before. She softly tracked

the agonized groan, and to her surprise, shee

saw a boy... Well.. . A man. His age? She

couldn't be sure.

After all, it was dark out, and her wolf sight

wasn't really helping. Everything was slightly

blurry from an earlier incident of which her

Alpha hit her, as she had spoken without

being addressed to and this was only the day

before. A minor altercation that ended in a

rather anticipated outcome for the deliverer.

She took a step closer in hopes of helping

him, but when she thought of him physically

striking her as well, it made her rethink her

decision. She stepped back, and slowly tilted

her head up towards the moon.

Her fangs retracted, her claws forced

themselves back into tender flesh and her

bones curvatured in splitting positions,

reducing within her body.

She whimpered out, which soon turned into a

tiny moan as her frame returned into that of

a human. Sighing in relief that it didn't hurt

as much as it did last time, she examined the

male.

His eyes scanned over her. She was aware

that now she was completely *****, but

she felt little of it. After all, it wasn't as if the

clothes she wore before would cover much

anyway.

Plus, it was dark. He couldn't see her, could

he?

As she looked at his shoulder, she noticed

that something had been poking out of it. It

was a short wooden stick, though towards the

wound, silver glistened in the moonlight. Her

knowing eyes increased in size.

She took another step back.

"Please Scarlett..." His voice was smooth

yet firm at the same time. Perhaps it was his

current condition that morphed his words so

deeply?

"How do you know my name?" She whispered.

She sounded like a little girl; innocent.

When he only replied with a grunt, she knew

that he was being drained of energy from loss

of blood. She had to help him, to remove the

staked arrow that was implanted deep within

his flesh, or he would soon die.

But how could she touch the silver without

facing the terrible consequences that lie

ahead?

A jolt shot through her body the moment she

got on her knees. It was the fact that they

were so close. Scarlett could not name the

pull, but it was intense yet so gentle. It tugged

at her body, her heart, and that was saying

something. She was almost sure that she lost

her heart the moment her Alpha bit her. He

had convinced the girl that she were his mate.

Filled her head with ideas she wouldn't have

otherwise known till years down the line.

He just needed someone to throw around; to

prove how dominate he was. If every person's

lifespan depended on the amount of times you

lied before reaching your expiration date, Sin

would be long gone.

The fact that he made a fool out of her in such

a indigestible way showed through the many

scars that permanently marked her body.

Without knowing, Scarlet had pressed her

hand towards the arrow. She instinctively

winced, but the unimaginable impact she was

told would come, never did.

She blinked.

They were lies, all lies. The silver did nothing

to her skin, but even if it did, she was sure

it would have been nothing compared the

brutal torture she endured day by day...

Exhaling, Scarlet whispered, "This will

hurt..." As she wrapped lean fingers around

the wood, a guttural growl emitted from

somewhere deep within the boy's throat. It

was a warning, obviously directed towards

her.

Scarlet pushed her other hand on his shoulder

for support. Instead of feeling cloth from what

was supposed to be his attire, her hand made

contact with skin. He was undressed...just

like her.

He wasn't a human, or a vampire. She already

knew that, and she'd also crossed out her own

breed, but she knew he'd undergone some

form of transitioning to be in this state. And

his odor... Was he the criminal behind the

mass murdering? Scarlet leaned towards him

and inhaled.

He was. He was the one who killed all these

people. The scent radiated off of his exposed

body like the refreshing waft of clean clothes

when you opened the dryer in the packhouse.

Her thoughts drifted towards the weapon

that was lunged into his shoulder blade when

he resisted her assistance, crying out as the

arrow shifted into thick tissue. She wrenched

the object out, and the male vigorously

thrashed around on the ground. Rich blood

profusely poured out from the open wound.

She got up, stepping away from the

seizure-like episode. He arched his back, dark

hair flopping over his head. The she-wolf

listened to his agonizing and blood curdling

Screams, ones that felt like they were coming

from her own chest.

The masculine figure grew in size, echoing

growls into the night. A powerful wind blew,

and the cold air bit at her skin.

As he neared the end of his exceptionally

intriguing yet disturbing transformation,

Scarlet stood frozen in place, staring up at the

beast that peered down at her with glowing

flaxen eyes. His green scaled chest heaved up

and down with every breath.

Large wings spread out, and instead of

harming her, he laid down, placing his head

within his webbed paws as a grateful sign of

submission. He let out a soft chirping noise,

proving that he was under her power in one

way or another.

In this form, Scarlet knew that it was true. She

never thought it would happen.

Not in a million years did she expect the day

to come, let alone with a creature of this

magnitude.

She had been mated to the,

"Dragon..."
