Hesper's POV:
I giggled as I saw a pretty hammock laid out on my balcony. The maids had just done my bedroom for me. I rushed up to it and jumped into the hammock, pulling a blanket around me that was on it. I heard the maids giggle as they opened the windows for my room. They told me to sleep well as they left me on my balcony. I giggled as I looked up at the pretty blue sky before yawning. I closed my eyes to try to be a good little vampire like my parents told me to be. I felt my favorite bracelets clattering together before I dozed off.
After a little bit, I was suddenly woken up when the wind picked up a bit and I heard a low growl. Hot breath hit my skin before a claw started to pull me out of the hammock. I fluttered my eyes open before screaming. That's not the dragons I've been seeing! It's another intruder dragon. I got quiet quickly and grabbed onto the hammock's blanket, meaning to grab the hammock itself. He pulled me up from it and puffed smoke at me as his golden eyes flickered over my body, lingering on the gold around my wrists. He was a pretty smokey black colored dragon, but I quickly noticed a small scar on his shoulder like he had been in fights before. He leaned in and smelled me as he sat on his back legs, sitting upright as his wing tips barely touched the floor.
He looked powerful, way more stronger than the dragons I hung out with. I blushed as I looked over his scar. I never seen a dragon with one of them before.... I waved the smoke away before throwing my blanket at his face in hopes to distract him. He hissed in surprise and dropped me, getting the blanket off his face before he snatched me up quickly and gave me a warning growl, taking off into the air before I could hatch another escape plan. I yelped and struggled in his arms before clinging to him as we reached over my castle's towers. He purred in amusement as he watched me clinging to him and tightened his grip around my stomach as he picked up the speed, carrying me away from my home. I reached out towards my castle as it started to fade from my view.
"My castle!" I yelled out. "No! What're you doing? Put me back!" He growled at me and ignored me, carrying me off far away from it. After awhile of my struggling, he landed in the middle of a forest and pinned me down to the ground with his claws, leaning his face down to mine before he smelled me and I felt his head nudge mine to the side, revealing my shoulder to him. His sharp teeth grazed against it, catching on the fabric of my shirt. I let out a whimper. "Please don't eat me," I begged. He's going to eat me! I felt my heart racing in my chest.
Dragons are supposed to be nice. He purred at me and then bit down into my shoulder, his claws tightening around me to keep me still. I screamed out in pain and thrashed around, cutting myself on his claws. I let out a whimper, settling down to try to prevent myself from anymore pain. "It hurts," I cried out. He pulled back from my shoulder and licked it, making it hurt a little less. I could feel a calming sensation suddenly kicking in as his purr soothed me, and I started to feel like I wasn't supposed to leave his side, a small desire to let the dragon take me growing. I rubbed my eyes a little to push the tears aside. I looked up at him and reached out to pet him.
He purred and let me, looking pleased that I was calming down and removed his claws from holding me down. I reached up for him before going to his side and went to crawl up onto him to hug his neck. He let me and looked back at me, licking my head before he took off into the skies again, being a little slower about it as I rode from his back. I yelped and clung to him so I wouldn't fall off. I hid my face against him for a few seconds until I looked around. It was beautiful from his back, the trees looked so small down there. I could faintly see a mountain coming up, and he seemed to be heading straight for it. He landed down at the base of it when we reached it and went into a cave hidden by ivy and bushes. He slipped through the opening and took me down deep into it before he nudged some rocks out of his way and then stopped outside a shimmering area that you could barely make out. He walked straight up to it with a purr and went through it, stepping out into a whole other world. It was beautiful, untouched by civilization.
There was a cliff nearby that dropped off down to a river below. He fluttered his wings and went up to the cliff before he jumped off it and into the air, flying us in the direction of a huge mountain with trees growing all over it. He went into a small entrance into the mountain- another cave and it opened up into a large cavern with high ceilings. Jewels laid in the walls of the cave, glimmering faintly from having been revealed. Three dragons looked up from a couple of different nests around the large hoard, tons of gold and riches scattered throughout the entire place. They immediately broke out into a purr, calling out to the dragon I was on. He turned his head to look back at me before he picked me up with his teeth and sat me down on the gold.
Their eyes immediately looked towards me. They started to get up and walked over to me, sniffing me as they checked me out. I could see a few eggs in one of their nests- the red dragon's nest. I widened my eyes a little. Why are there three of them? I panicked and ran up under the dragon that brought me before slipping into the safety of his wing. I heard him purring in amusement before he dragged me out from under his wing and sat me back down.
"Make him a nest," he told a dark, black as midnight dragon. It purred and nuzzled it's head against him before he gave it a soft growl and licked it's head. It looked extremely happy before it walked away and started to mess around in the gold, putting together another nest. I noticed a smaller opening in the far back, probably where his nest was. He looked the other two dragons over and then started to walk off as they looked me over and purred, licking me.
"He brought home another mate for the hoard~" I heard the red one purr to the green dragon. The green one purred and nudged me onto my back.
"We should rub him down in oils for the king~!" She purred excitedly back to the red one. I whined as I watched him leaving. He's leaving me alone! I started to panic and curled up.
"He'll be back," the red one told me. "Don't worry," she purred and licked my cheek. "He's just going to check on a few things like always when he returns home." The green one pulled away and turned into a human, running off with a giggle before she came back with a few bottles of oils and then knelt down beside me, starting to pull my clothes off.
"He looks so pretty with those gold bracelets on~! We should put some more gold on him to please our king~" The green one squealed, her brown curly hair falling over her shoulder as she leaned over me and tugged my shirt off. I widened my eyes and reached for my shirt.
"No wait! I don't like my shirt off." I begged her. She tugged it off anyways and gave me an amused look.
"It won't last long if you keep it on~ Besides, look at this huge tear in it!" She showed me the bloody fabric that was torn up that had been on my shoulder. "You don't want to keep that on." She tossed it far away and then unbuttoned my pants, pulling them down.
"My clothes," I whined. "I don't have spares," I told them. The red dragon licked my cheek.
"You won't need them," she told me and purred. The green dragon tossed them away and left my boxers alone, opening a bottle of oil before she started to pour it on my chest and put it aside, rubbing it into me. I whined at the texture of the oil on my body. How am I going to get this off of me? The red dragon suddenly left us when I heard the smokey dragon coming back, heading straight for him with a loud purr. He purred at her and licked her head before he walked over and looked down at me in approval, his eyes looking me over.
"They took my clothes," I whined to him.
"I see that," he purred and looked towards the green dragon who was looking up at him with a loving look. "I'm pleased to see that you're taking care of him already," he purred to her and then licked the top of her head. She purred loudly and let out a soft moan before she looked him over longingly then looked down at me.
"I was hoping it would please you," she told him lovingly. He purred and then reached down, picking me up off the gold in his claws.
"It does," he told her and then looked the two of them over. "Go be dears and help out the other," he told them. They purred and looked towards the other dragon, going after her quickly to do as he asked. He looked towards me and then started to carry me towards the opening in the back. He took me in it, revealing a rich nest that was larger than the first opening. He took me to the middle and sat me down on silk gold sheets with pillows everywhere. He licked my chest then, starting to clean the oils off me. I giggled at the feel of his tongue against me. I gripped at a pillow and tried to crawl away from his tongue. He growled at me and didn't look happy about it, puffing smoke at me. I stopped quickly, getting still as I looked at the smoke around me.
"I'm sorry," I told him quickly. "It tickles." He relaxed a bit before he purred to me and nuzzled his head against my stomach. He laid down and then pulled me close and up against his body before he began to lick me, cleaning me up. I whined a little, gripping at his face as he licked me. Toma and Ross don't lick me like this! He stopped and looked down at me as I held onto him then nuzzled his head up against me before he smelled me. "Could I have my clothes back?" I asked softly. He looked at me and growled slightly.
"Why?"
"I.... I don't wear this little of clothing," I mumbled. "My parents advised me to wear more articles."
"Your parents are no longer with you," he told me and pulled his face back from mine. "You're apart of my hoard now, and you don't need clothes. You'll get used to it. When you come of age, you won't be wearing any clothes at all." I widened my eyes.
"N-none at all? I don't feel comfortable just like this though.... and come of age?" I asked. He looked at me and purred.
"Yes, come of age. You're young for your kind, yes? When you're older, we'll mate," he purred to me. "Unless you want to mate now at your age." I widened my eyes a little and blushed.
"What's..... what's mating?" He looked me over and laughed a little.
"I guess you're young for your kind to the point where they haven't told you yet. Mating, my little mate, is when you make love with someone else. No clothes are allowed, and it involves your little downstairs with their own downstairs," he purred and licked my cheek. "You'll like it~" I frowned in confusion, trying to figure out what he meant.
"O-okay," I mumbled. What's downstairs? My feet? Our feet? Is he going to rub my feet when I'm older? He noticed my confusion and purred at me.
"Here," he purred at me and then nuzzled his head against my stomach before he licked it and he slipped his head between my legs and rubbed his head against my underwear. "This, my little mate, is your downstairs," he told me, sounding amused. I blushed as I realized now what he was meaning. His with mine? I pushed at his head as I felt funny downstairs by his touch. He purred and pulled his head away then licked my cheek. "I'll wait till you're of age unless you ask me earlier," he told me, pulling me closer against him.
"But... why can't I have clothes?" I asked softly.
"Because I don't like them," he told me. "You won't need them when you're older anyways because you'll be mating with me like the other three."
"The other three?" I asked and looked from where we came from, remembering the other dragons. "You have multiple mates...." I trailed off.
"As the Dragon King, I'm entitled to as many mates as I wish to have," he purred to me and looked towards the entrance to this room. "They're the best mates out there that you can find in the dragon realm~ I plan to have many children with them this mating season. They'll take care of you while I'm busy with one of them and they'll show you the dragon realm if you ask them nicely."
"Could.... could I er.... visit my parents?" I asked softly.
"No, you don't belong to that world anymore," he told me firmly, looking back towards me. "You're to stay here forever as part of my hoard and as one of my mates. Your parents are no longer apart of your life. You will find that the other mates can step in and fill in some of the holes that will be missing from not having parents though. They can teach you anything you want to know, and they'll take care of you." I whined but nodded towards him, not wanting to argue. He might eat me. I curled up against him for warmth.
"I drink human blood," I told him softly.
"We'll have a human brought here for you to feed from regularly then," he told me and lifted up one of his claws so I could curl up against his chest and brought it down on me. "Don't be upset. You'll love this life. It's a great thing to be my mate."
"But you won't allow me clothes," I mumbled.
"If I allow you clothes, you won't get used to being exposed to me," he told me and purred. "You wouldn't want me to suddenly take all your clothes from you when you're older and refuse to let you wear a single thing."
"But I'll be exposed to them out there too," I told him.
"They're not going to touch you like I will," he growled softly. "They know better, and they know that you're meant for only for me. You better know that too. Don't let any other dragon touch you like I do. My other mates can help care for you, but they're not allowed to touch you in your downstairs. If another dragon besides my mates even try to get close to you, you're to tell them that you belong to me, every inch of you."
"E-every- inch... of me belongs to you?" I asked and took in a deep breath before grabbing at my shinny bracelets.
"Yes, every inch of you belongs to me," he purred in amusement, his eyes looking me over and lingering over my underwear before he looked towards my bracelets I was holding. "If you think I'm going to take those pretty gold bracelets from you, I won't. I'm going to put more on you in fact."
"You'll give me more?" I asked in excitement and looked around for any.
"Yes, would you like some more right now?" He asked me, looking me over. He got to his feet, letting me fall against the pillows and got out of the bed part of his nest, going over to the corner of the room where he moved some of the gold around then came back with golden chains, jewels, and bracelets. He dumped them beside me, creating a small pile for me to go through. "You may wear any of these that you want. I'll put out what you don't pick. Unlike your clothes, I won't take these off you~" I looked them over, taking them all and finding a place on my body for them, forcing my bracelets up my arm to get more on, even putting some on my ankles. He purred in amusement before he looked towards my ears.
He was suddenly a much smaller dragon- about the size of a cat. He crawled up onto my chest and went to my ear, his claws brushing against my ear lobe before they dug into my skin and pierced my ear. I let out a scream that echoed out to the other dragons and I busted into tears as it stung me. I pushed him off quickly and took off running from him. He snarled and let out a roar, changing into his larger form and snatched me up, puffing smoke at me. I could hear his mates letting out small calls to him as they heard him getting angry. I yelped and waved the smoke away from my face before struggling to get away from him. He hurt me! He hissed in anger and dropped me into the nest, putting his claws over me to keep me down as he glared at me. "Behave," he hissed at me. I felt panicked as a sense overcame me and I froze up.
I whipped at my tears, breathing deeply as I was terrified. He watched me before he started to calm down and then licked my tears off my cheeks. "I was piercing your ears," he explained to me, his voice softening. He gave me a soothing purr and I heard his mates calm down outside the room.
"It hurt," I told him and started to calm down by his purrs.
"I know," he told me softly. "It only hurts for a little while and then you can wear gold on your ears," he purred to me. "I'll do the other ear for you if you stay still this time."
"No!" I told him and shook my head.
"Why not?" He purred and looked towards my other ear as he moved his claw off me. He looked outside the nest and then leaned his head out of it before he dropped a small ring with a needle on it on my chest. He turned into a human and sat down beside me, his black hair brushed back from his face. I saw the scar more prominent in this form, looking larger on him than it had before. He was muscular, his body strong looking- especially in the arms and his abs. He wasn't too muscular though, but he looked like he could easily take on some people I knew. He picked up the little gold ring and undid a small hook that was on the needle then leaned in towards my ear that he had stuck with his claw and slipped the needle through the wound and put the gold ring on my ear.
I whined as it continued to sting, the feeling of the new weight begun to freak me out and I reached for the gold piece. He watched me and then purred in amusement. "Leave it alone," he told me, lightly smacking my hand. "You don't want to irritate it and make it hurt more. If you take it out, it'll heal up and all that pain from me piercing it will have been for nothing." I whined and reached out for him, wrapping my arms around him.
"Don't do it again to the other ear," I whispered. He looked a little surprised as I wrapped my arms around him then relaxed and purred towards me.
"I won't," he told me and kissed my neck. I closed my eyes tightly before sniffling. I pushed him onto his back and rested my head against his chest. I heard a deep rumble in his chest start up as he purred at me lovingly and started to run his fingers along my spine. "Good little mate," he purred in my ear, kissing the top of my head. I laid down next to him and pulled at some of the covers, yanking them over me as I curled up to his side. I looked up at his face and blushed. He watched me before he rubbed my lips gently with his thumb, pulling me a little closer. I felt a shiver run up my spin from the blankets as goosebumps went up my arms.
He gave me an amused look before he leaned in and kissed right next to my lips. I blushed and pulled back from the kiss. I felt a hunger sparking in me and I let out a whine as my fangs exposed. He looked towards my fangs then before he rubbed my lips again with his thumb and pulled me closer with his other hand. He started to pull me towards the crook of his neck, exposing it to me. I leaned in and bit down, starting to drink his blood in hunger. He purred at me and rubbed my back and pulled me on top of his chest. "There you go~" I purred sweetly to him then and moaned at the strange taste of his blood. He kissed my cheek as I moaned and then licked my sore ear, making it feel better before he kissed my neck. I suddenly felt him sucking at my neck a little, his tongue running against my skin. I stopped drinking his blood, closing my eyes tightly. He purred to me and rubbed my back before he moved down a little bit on my neck and started to do it again.
I gasped and let out a small giggle. He pulled back and looked at me in amusement. "Do you like that, little mate?" I nodded slowly before leaned into his neck and licked the wound I made on him. He rubbed my back and let me lick the wound before his lips brushed against my neck again and he started to do it again. I grabbed at the blanket and giggled. I moved off of him and grabbed a pillow. He looked towards me, laughing slightly. "You want me to stop or do you want some more?" He teased me, rubbing my neck with a finger and ran it across where he had been sucking. I gasped as the skin was tinder there and I pulled back. I threw the pillow at him then as I giggled.
"No more!" I told him. He caught the pillow and purred in amusement.
"Alright, no more for now," he told me then handed the pillow back to me. "Get some rest. You can stay back in here for now, but I'm going to go to my other mates. I wouldn't leave the room if I were you," he purred and stood up. I blushed and nodded towards him.
"Okay," I mumbled and grabbed at the blankets, pulling more on me to keep in the heat. He smirked a bit then transformed into his dragon form, walking towards the exit of the room and left. I heard his mates calling out to him in loving tones before I heard him telling two of them to go hunt some food for me. I could hear him purring to the one he had stay behind before I heard her purring loudly and the clatter of gold being moved aside. I blushed a bright red and pulled the pillow over my head so I wouldn't hear anymore. It didn't take me long to doze off, thinking of asking him if I could wear a kimono like my father. Maybe a gold one to please him.
I heard a low purr next to me as gold shifted in the room. "Did you catch him a human to feed from, my sweet loves?" I heard him ask from beside me.
"Yes~ We brought him some fruit too," I heard the red one purring to him. "Would you like us to bring the food in here for him?"
"No, let him sleep. Keep the human quiet in his nest so he can go feed when he wakes." I whined and rolled over a bit before opening my eyes. I looked around at the dragon then towards where I heard his voice from.
"How long was I asleep?" I asked softly. He looked down at me.
"Only a few hours," he told me and purred, rubbing my cheek. He was in his human form from earlier, laying down with me by my side. The red dragon watched us before she slipped through the entrance to go back to the others and inform them about what their king said. I blushed as I watched her leave before remembering what I wanted to ask him.
"Could I have a kimono?" I asked sweetly. He growled lowly at me then, not sounding pleased by my question.
"We already discussed clothes," he hissed slightly.
"But it's easy to take off," I told him innocently. "It's not like pants and a shirt and once I outgrow it then I'll be- er- old enough anyways," I told him. He looked at me thoughtfully then, getting quiet as he looked me over.
"Easy to take off?" He asked me then tilted his head. "Is it that Japanese style of clothing that ties shut?" I nodded quickly.
"My dad wears them," I explained. He considered it for a few seconds before his eyes shifted over towards the exit of his nest.
"You'll outgrow it before you're of age?" He looked back towards me then and trailed his finger along my jaw line. I nodded towards him.
"You could get me a gold one," I told him sweetly. His eyes lit up at the thought, and I heard a small purr escape him as his eyes lingered on the bracelets and necklaces on me. "Please?" I asked softly. His eyes went back to mine before he stared at me then sat up slowly.
"Alright, I'll make an exception for it just this once. You can wear it out there with my other mates and you can wear it if you leave the hoard with either me or them," he told me. "I'll have them measure you and make one tailored for you."
"Thank you!" I told him quickly and gave him a hug. He purred loudly as I hugged him then wrapped his arms around me, bringing me into his lap as he kissed the top of my head.
"Only for while you're young," he warned me. I nodded towards him.
"Only while I'm young," I repeated back to him.
"Good little mate~" He purred and then kissed my neck. "Are you hungry?"
"Yeah," I told him and nodded. "Did they say there was a human in my nest?" I asked.
"Yes, they placed your human in your nest," he told me, running his fingers through my hair before he scooped me up, standing up as he held me up with one arm under my butt and carried me towards the exit. I wrapped my arms around his neck and looked over his shoulder at the comfortable nest he had. He purred to me softly and then walked me past the other dragons who were settled down in their nests, watching us curiously as he took me towards a nest they had made for me. It wasn't as large and nice as his though, having pillows lining it with gold sheets put in there for me.
I saw a woman curled up in my nest, looking like they had knocked her out and laid her on one of the larger pillows that was almost as big as me. He sat me down in the nest next to a small pile of oranges and apples. "There, if you need anything else, you can ask Lilith. She's the pretty red one and the oldest of all my mates. She'll tend to you happily if you ask.
She'll take your measurements and get you the kimono. Lilith! I'm allowing him one golden kimono! Make sure he's measured for it!" He called out to her then looked me over before he walked out of my nest. Did I just get thrown out of his nest? I watched him walking away before I looked over at the woman. My parents told me I shouldn't drink from someone that hasn't given me permission. I picked up an apple and bit into it. I heard him stop for a second before he purred. "This doesn't mean I'm kicking you out. I saw that look," he teased me. "You can still sleep in my nest for a little while, but you will start sleeping out here when mating season becomes more serious for me," he purred. "You don't want to be in my nest with the other mates at your age." I nodded towards him.
"Am I going to have eggs too when I'm older?" I asked him. He looked at me and purred a bit before he walked over and sat down in my nest with me.
"No, unless I bring a wizard into the hoard," he told me and rubbed my cheek. "You can't give me children like the others because you're a male. Your body doesn't work like that, but if you want to give me eggs, we can bring a wizard into the hoard to keep. I was thinking about it anyways. It'd scare off any dragons who are getting ideas... or I could have your gender changed. You're a pureblood after all... but you won't be having eggs. You'll have children instead of eggs...."
"N-no! I don't want to be a girl." I shook my head quickly and leaned in to whisper to him. "They have cooties." He laughed at me then.
"They do not have cooties," he told me and purred. "Your downstairs would change though. You'd have to pee sitting down."
"Nu-uh," I told him and shook my head. "I don't want cooties." He purred and shook his head.
"Little mate, girls don't have cooties. Those are fake. They do bleed downstairs though once a month when they come of age," he told me, giving me an amused look. "If I changed you into a female now, you wouldn't know the difference when you're older."
"No!" I told him and shook my head. "I don't want to be a girl. You might not remember but they do have cooties." He laughed and looked me over before he leaned in and kissed my cheek.
"I'll ask you when you're older if you want to please me and give me children as a female. There's always the wizard alternative if you'd prefer having to take care of eggs and keep them warm as a male. Do you want to give me children like they do, or would you prefer to just mate with me?" He purred in my ear.
"I don't think I'd be a good father," I told him.
"That's okay. We'll just mate until you express desires to have your own hatchlings running around my hoard like they will have soon," he told me and kissed my neck softly. I looked towards where I saw the eggs from before.
"Are they going to hatch soon?" I asked. He glanced towards Lilith's eggs then.
"Hers will. She laid them awhile ago. She'll have more new eggs in her nest soon. You'll be allowed to help her take care of her hatchlings though if you'd like. She won't mind you playing with them," he purred thoughtfully.
"I haven't seen a hatchling before," I told him. "All the dragons are grown up at my parents homes." I heard a small growl from him then as his eyes flashed over toward me.
"You lived with other dragons?" He asked me, looking a bit upset.
"Lixue, Toma, and Ross. Ross and Toma are mates and Lixue is their little artic dragon." I blushed. "Toma likes to stay in Ross' hoard so Lixue is usually the only one at Rosario castle- Toma's hoard." I remembered this information from a maid's gossip. He relaxed and nodded.
"So they're not going to come looking for you?" He purred, looking delighted.
"Um... well you did take me out of one of the biggest vampire castles around.... My mom came from a really wealthy family. He's a king and my dad is a king... so.... Yeah they'll be looking for me..... all of them." He tilted his head as he looked at me consideringly.
"I doubt they'll find you," he hummed out. "If they did, they won't be able to get you back anyways~"
"You stole a prince from a wealthy and powerful vampire family and you think they're not going to be able to find me? Laurence- my mom's fledgling can see the past, present, and future. He knows everything. There's a family friend named Kingsley who is married to a powerful wizard.... I think you should have asked my parents to take me.... They're gonna be mad." He frowned and looked me in the eyes, rubbing my cheek.
"Don't you want to stay here with me, little mate?" He asked me softly, his thumb trailing towards my lips where he rubbed my bottom one gently. I nodded towards him and moaned slightly.
"Yeah," I told him. "I'm just telling you about my family.... My names Hesper by the way." He purred.
"Hesper," he murmured, letting my name roll of his tongue as he tried it out. It sounded so much better when he said it than when I've heard anyone else call it. It made me long to hear him say my name again. He looked towards my lips then at me. "I won't let them take you from me," he promised me, whispering to me as his breath hit my face and his thumb paused on my bottom lip. He tilted my head towards him and leaned in, giving a small kiss on my lips before he pulled back slightly and rubbed my bottom lip again, making it tingle. I looked him over before looking towards his neck and leaned in, biting him and started to drink his blood. He tensed slightly but relaxed, pulling me into his lap. I heard the other mates giving low growls towards me before they quieted as he looked their way. I moaned at the taste of his blood, letting out a small purr to him. He ran his fingers through my hair lightly and kissed the side of my head as he let me drink from him. I could hear the human stirring a little on the nearby pillow, capturing the king's attention as he looked towards her sharply. I pulled back from his neck to look at her. Her eyes fluttered open, and I was met with pretty brown eyes that looked at me. Her eyebrows furrowed before she sat up and looked towards the king and widened her eyes as she saw he was naked.
"Where the heck am I?!" She cried out and looked around the nest in a panic then spotted his three mates and shrieked in terror.
"In a dragon hoard," I told her. She looked towards me in panic then shook her head.
"W-who are you? Why the heck are you on that guy?!"
"He's my little mate," the king purred, grinning at her. "You're going to feed him too, understand?" He told her, looking her in the eyes. Her eyes glazed over a bit as she looked at him, dazed. She quieted down quickly and nodded slowly.
"Y-yes," she told him.
"He's a vampire. He'll drink your blood, and in return, you'll have a warm place to sleep and food," he told her calmly. "You're not to touch him." She nodded again and looked towards me before she exposed her neck. He purred in my ear and kissed my cheek. "Enjoy," he whispered to me. I blushed and went over to her, leaning into her neck and bit down. I moaned as a refreshing taste drained down my throat. Human blood isn't like anything else. It's what vampires are supposed to drink. I moaned and clung to her as I started to get greedy. She let out a small whimper but relaxed, letting me. "Don't kill her," I heard him warn me. "If you kill her, it'll be awhile before I get you another human." I whined as I pulled away from her neck.
I looked towards him and licked my bloody lips. He looked at me in amusement. "You'll want her alive so you can drink from her whenever you want without having to come to me and ask for blood," he explained. "She's all yours, so don't accidentally kill her."
"That's hard to do," I told him. "Her blood isn't like the bottled blood." He smirked.
"Then I'll have to make sure that someone is watching you when you feed until you get used to not wanting to kill her," he purred and crawled over, pulling me from her. I wrapped my arms around his neck.
"Can I go outside?" I asked curiously. He looked towards me then towards the entrance before he nodded.
"Yes, it's still daylight out. It'll be easy to keep you away from other dragons in the daylight," he told me and then sat me down before he transformed into his dragon form and looked at me expectantly. I got onto his body quickly, clinging to his neck. I giggled. Yes! I get to go out into the sun. He carried me over to the entrance then slipped out of it before he roared and dove down to the base of the mountain. He landed in a small field and then shook his head and body then looked towards me, leaning his head back. He licked me and then picked me up gently in his jaws then sat me down on the ground. I got up and started to run from him, giggling as I ran through the field, going for the other side. I gasped as the feeling of the hot sun tingled on my skin.
I heard him purring at me before he started to walk off towards the trees on the other side of the field, giving a small growl as he searched for other dragons. I heard a low rumble from in the trees before a sharp growl as a dragon came out of the tree line in front of me. I widened my eyes and fell backwards onto the ground. He looked towards me in amusement before heading straight for the king with a small purr, knocking him straight down. The king looked towards him and snarled sharply, narrowing his eyes before he got up and tensed, looking the other dragon over as he raised his head up high. The intruder leaned in and licked his cheek.
"Who's your new mate?" The dragon asked before looking at me. "He looks more like a meal." The king relaxed a little, seeing he wasn't threatening him then looked at me.
"I found him in the human world. He's a pureblood vampire. You better not touch him," he hissed warningly.
"You mean I can't give him a good lick?" The dragon asked before looking me over. "I won't bite him."
"No! He's mine!" The king hissed and growled angrily.
"Fine," he purred out before licking the king on his cheek. "I'll just give you a good, LONG lick. Lay down." The king growled then.
"Who said that I want your tongue on my scales? Is my mark on you? No," he told the dragon and tensed.
"Well I'll just put my mark on you," the dragon decided and let out a growl before going in for a bite. The king hissed and jumped back before he gave a warning scratch on the other dragon's side. He backed off and turned around, walking away.
"I'll come back when you're more in heat," he decided. The king hissed.
"You're not marking me! I'M THE KING!" He snarled at the dragon then. I heard his mates let out a roar from the nest above, hearing him being threatened.
"I hear them calling~" The dragon said. "Why isn't this one making a sound?" He started for me then. The dragon king snarled and tackled him, his claws sinking into the other dragon as he bit down into him harshly and flared his wings up. The dragon let out a small roar before relaxing, letting out a laugh. "Mark me!" The king growled and bit him again, pinning him down. "Come on and mark me. You need me! I'll protect your hoard better than any dragon," he told him. The dragon king pulled back from the bite and looked down at the dragon, his gold eyes flickering over him.
"A night dragon," the king murmured, tightening his claws on the dragon. "I have a shadow dragon mate already. How would you be able to protect my hoard better than my four mates? Would you please me and obey my every word?"
"I'll do better than that. I'll give you my hoard," he told him and leaned in, licking him.
"You understand that if I do mark you, you're not to touch anyone else in a mate like manner and that you're not to let anyone else touch you like that? You do know it's for life?" He asked him, ignoring the lick the dragon gave him.
"You better satisfy me when I'm wanting to mate then," the dragon warned. The king growled dominantly then, snapping his jaws in the other dragon's face.
"You're to absolutely obey me. You will not be a king from this at all," he hissed. "I will kill you if you betray me without second thought or hesitation. If you hurt any of the other mates in my hoard, you'll be slaughtered."
"Are you going to mate with me?" The dragon asked and purred. "That's all I want and you'll have my full obedience." The king looked at him then.
"Give me one good reason to make you one of my mates," he told him. "You have to want it badly."
"I do want it badly. I'm a rich dragon." He purred. The king gave him an amused look before he leaned his head into the other dragon's neck and rubbed against it, letting his scales tease the night dragon. "Mark me as yours," he purred.
