Hidden Flame: Bound to the Triplet Dragon Kings

**Avery**

It feels so alien to have a dragon so close to me and not be the least bit fearful, but I can’t doubt that Regina is mine. She

knew one of my mother’s songs. She said that all of the songs could have been premonitions too. What if she’s right?

Could I possess a similar ability? I guess that we will find out. I wish that I could speak to my parents to learn everything.

The Trio had it easy because they always knew what they were and their destiny.

Cassius slowly approaches us, “I am glad that you are willing to trust your dragon. Hopefully, in time, we can earn your

trust as well. Do you think that you could allow Regina to share your body as we do our dragons?”

That’s a good question. Apparently, she’s always been with me but can I trust that she won’t do anything stupid? Regina

looks at me and then I hear her say, “We are stronger now. I won’t allow us to suffer anymore. I also promise that I won’t make you become intimate before you are ready. Just because I am starting to feel the mating bond, doesn’t mean that

you are. I will let you decide when the human side of us is ready. I love you, Avery. You are my person.”

I kissed her head before I turned to The Trio and asked, “Will it hurt?”

Conner looked at Regina and she nodded before he took my hand that was petting her. His soft blue eyes met mine as

he spoke, “The only time it ever hurts is when our dragons first make contact with us. You shouldn’t remember the pain

because it happened after you were born. Why are you so worried?”

“I think our classes were wrong. Regina and I never chose each other. We were born this way.”
