Hidden Flame: Bound to the Triplet Dragon Kings

**Cassius**

I can feel Avery’s nervousness as it mixes with her curiosity and excitement. The feeling is amazing to me because it

allows me to experience things differently. Just her holding my hand as she is now sends shockwaves through my body.

Experiencing the mate bond with her is more than I ever dreamed of. I want to both reexperience and experience

everything life has to offer with her.

Now that our shopping is complete, I am going to offer her a choice. “Avery, I want to try out some of what we just

bought. Would you like to go home, to a hotel, or with me to a special club?”

She chews on her lip as she discusses her options with Regina. Asher finds this adorable and amusing just as I do

because he puffs his fire inside of me which tickles us both. The venue won’t alter what I have planned. It is merely for her

comfort level but she doesn’t need to know that. I will let her and Regina think it does though because I love the look of

inquisitiveness in their eyes. I am also relieved that I no longer see fear when she looks at me. I have finally earned her

trust and now that I have it, I will die before I lose it.

“What do you mean by ‘special club’?” she asks.

“Similar to what is in some of your books, but a bit tamer as this one is for those eighteen and over and it doesn’t allow

alcohol on the premises. You will be safe, and everything is still at your pace.”

She chews on her lip a bit more before she says, “I don’t think I am ready for that, but I would like to go to a hotel
