Chapter 8 - Alarm

Locklyns pov

As I lay staring down at the beautiful human , who instantaneously stolen my heart. Her leg wrapped around my waist, head on my chest as her green hair sprawled on my chest and arms. An annoying high pitch sound blared. With an in eternal growl I untangled my self from my perfect consort. Missing her warmth and skin as soon as I had successfully stood. Scrolling a note quickly I left it on the night stand. Moving out into the hall , I swear if anyone pulled that alarm for anything less then wire. I'd rip their ducking head off their shoulders. My eyes fell on my father sitting at the table. " what the fuck are you going here?" He asked. My father looked to me then it seemed , realization hit him causing him to nod.

" Right your consort is here.". He said As if he'd forgotten. Inthrawled males are insane he chuckled. My glare bored into my father. To which he chuckled, put his hands up as if surrendering.

" I'm giving you a hard time son, I will be headed out right behind you" This reminded me I had to leave I growled, not sure if I wanted him to stay and make sure she's ok in my absence , or stay the fuck away. Canines shit out of my gums, three sets. One slightly bigger then any mere mortals, the second the size of wolf canines the third though. Where over my bottom lip slightly when my mouth was closed. A large set of crimson colored leathery like wings shot out of my back. They stayed folded, long black 10 inch claws grew from my fingers. . As my irises become amber flames, flickering in my eyes.

" Locklyn." my father growled. " Get your self together Go tend to the security now, and put your claws away if you where anyone else id rip your head off." He growled out. He was the king , the equivalent of the alpha for the dragon kind. At his dominance my claws receded into my fingertips. A groan was heard as my large wings did the same into my back. My feet moved against their own accord to l follow their kings orders. Though the beast with in me thrashed around. " what the fuck are you doing, do not leave her ."

he demanded. Huffing I moved out the kitchen to the door.

Soon I pulled up to the large building, the fixture made of pure gold. The windows crafted by crystal. The building was 8 stories high stretching out to fill 6 acres of land it sat upon. The building was a large, circular one, with a long drive made of crystal a gold and like stone. Not that many of us drive up here, I only took the car to stop questions from forming. Getting out I shut the door to the sleek black escalade harder then necessary. The sun was blocked by large dragons of many sizes and colors flying in and lowering to the large grass to gather in front of the building. How could humans miss giant , dragons in the sky you aske. Magic a trick of the eyes, dragons have magic in their blood. It is how we shift from human to a large beast bigger then a two story apartment building. As well as make humans see a clear blue sky while there are hundreds or giant beasts in the sky. The palace where I played as a kid, is nothing more than a gathering place now. The twins are away at college and I moved in my own place. The palace , was to large and only for my father. So he moved as well, a few untamed dragons lived here. Taking care of this place for my consort and I when I become king and move in. It broke my heart to see this magnificent place reduced to only a meeting place. Looking around I moved through the heavy golden door, seeing Henry my fathers right hand in the great room. The others went to their places , everyone one had an assignment when the alarm went off now one had to be told what to do. For the past 6 months my fathers has had me in charge of security. That is why up I am here and not him, He is migrating me into being king in sections. Preparing me for when he is ready to retire, which wont be any time soon. Hell I didn't want it to be. I'm only handling security and losing my shit to stress. The kings decides everything else but put me in charge the safety of everyone and didn't weigh in on a decision when it was compromised. "You rang." I looked to Henry sarcasm thickly laced in my tone He chuckled. But it faded very quickly. " I wish I could keep you as happy as you currently are your majesty but I don't have great news." He said. Getting out a sharp breath , I looked to him arching a brow.

A mortal was found next to a dragon bloody, on the north border of town. It is unclear if she happened upon him. It was the one that killed him. The word smacked me in the face. A sigh escaped my lips. "Have Axel deal with the girl. Henry looked as if he was bothers by axel betting his hands on the mortal. But nonetheless he bowed." yes your majesty. he bowed then left. Growling I moved to the office may as well get to work, I'm already here.
