Dragon Fated: A Billionaire Dragon Shifter Romance (Prince of the Other Worlds)

  Ryana just kept looking between all of them, one after the other, beaming a smile as bright as the beads on her dress. “This is all so exciting!”

  The janitor beat them to the location, but he walked in. Mills piped the microphone from his phone through the SUV’s system so they could all listen in to his low-level, forced-to-stay-outside-the-club-house enforcer-small-talk with others of his stature. Max slowed their SUV to coast as Jamison pulled up views from outside.

  “Fifteen cars parked, so at least fifteen targets, not counting drop-offs,” Max announced with his magical eyes.

  “Definitely more. A lot more,” Mills said, her eyes closed, trying to track fragments of too many conversations.

  “Any luck on voice recognition?” Zach asked Jamison.

  “Hard to get a clear sample from inside this guy’s pocket,” Jamison complained. “Let’s hope he’s a Pokémon fan and decides to see what’s around to catch, eh?”

  Then the ambient sounds quieted. They heard the sound of a solidly closing door and the throat clearing and a rustling of fabric as the man presumably adjusted himself nearby.

  “Fuck, fuck, fuck,” Mills hissed.

  Austin reached into one of their lockboxes and pulled out a weapon. “I bet I can make them talk again.”

  Damian put a hand on his wrist to hold it. “They all went in…they’ve all got to come out.”

  “After doing what nefarious things?” Ryana asking out of prurient curiosity rather than altruism, before reaching for Austin’s gun.

  “Later. I promise,” the werewolf said, pulling the weapon away.

  Just what Damian needed. Austin arming his sister. He closed his eyes and tried to concentrate on the here and now, as they all heard the sounds of more fabric, as the phone was freed from whatever pocket it’d resided in, and a distant voice grew louder.

  “Our janitor’s nosy,” Mills said. “Yes. Go for it. Lean in.”

  Everyone in the SUV was holding their breath collectively, even Damian, so they all heard it at the same time, clear as day: “And this is my esteemed niece, Andrea.”

  Damian froze, as inside his chest, his heart—a dragon’s heart, possibly made of crystal, just like the cursed one in the box—skipped a beat and shattered.

  DRAGON CURSED

  Chapter One

  Andi had to fight not to play with her phone in her pocket, and said a silent prayer that its recording app was still running. Could it hear her Uncle clearly? Why hadn’t she thought to check it at home? Why had none of her Uncle’s men searched her? Was the fact that she didn’t smell like dragon enough?

  How sure was she that she didn’t smell like dragon, and wasn’t putting Damian in danger now?

  “Are you finally ready to listen, niece?” her uncle asked the second she’d sat down.

  “Yes. Assuming you’re finally ready to tell me the truth, uncle,” she said spitefully.
