The Draglen Brothers - SHOWKEN (BK 2)

by Barner, Solease M

  “She was doing something this morning,” I say, smiling. Marilyn turns and looks shocked.

  “No, please say Jazz didn’t sleep with one of your brothers.”

  “Jazz didn’t sleep with one of my brothers,” I say, laughing. I am bound by brother to brother.

  “Showken-”

  “Love, my sister is waiting, now listen, whatever you do, don’t drink her tea,” I say. My little sidetrack worked.

  “Her tea, well I don’t like tea anyway, but why?”

  “You don’t want to know,” I say, as she buttons the dress. I really like this dress too. We visit with Beauka for a few hours, and it seems like they get along great. Marilyn loves our time there, and Beauka sends a message to my head letting me know she approves. I smile, knowing this day is ending and tomorrow evening Marilyn will be my Wella forever.

  MARILYN

  I can’t believe I have puked five times today. I’m getting ready to become a Wella to Showken, who I love a lot, but marriage. I feel like I need to puke again.

  “Mari, stop puking, that’s just gross, now lick some of this salt.” Jazz frowns as she pours some into my hand. I notice Queen Nala and Beauka at the door. “If you just going to stand there then you can go have a seat, I have to get her prepared to marry Showken.” Jazz frowns at them both.

  “Marilyn, you need to get dressed, your gown is all already for you. Beauka is going to do your hair,” Showken’s mom says.

  “When pigs fly. I’m doing her hair, I’m her best friend.”

  “Yes, but she’s becoming my sister.”

  “Bitch, back off, I’m doing her hair, dragon or not I will kick your ass all around this room.” Oh shit, not today, Jazz.

  “I will do my own hair,” I say, glaring at them both. “Both of you better not ruin my day with this arguing.” I wish I had my gun, I would have shot a warning in the air.

  “Fine, Mari,” Jazz says. “Only for you.”

  “Well, we have forever to get to know each other, sister,” Beauka smirks.

  “You don’t want to dance with me.”

  “Enough!” Queen Nala yells.

  I ignore them and go over to my dress. It’s fit for a princess. It’s full of jewels. They all help me get this dress on as it has an extremely long train. The dress is off one shoulder, with splits on both sides. I notice as I walk to do my makeup that these splits are right up to my ass. What kind of gown is this? Whatever. I’m completely ready now. We all look in the mirror. Everyone is smiling, including me.

  “Well, our work here is done, Marilyn,” Showken’s mother says. “You will walk to the ceremony by yourself.” I look at Jazz and she looks at me. Why?

  “I don’t know my way around the castle.”

  “You will do fine,” Beauka says, trying to convince me. I roll my eyes.

  “Get Showken here right now, I’m not walking by myself.” I sit on the bed.

  “Well,” his mother says. “My son got a very determined one. We will all leave and I’ll send Showken.” They leave the room. I stand, feeling a little pissed. I don’t want to walk by myself, why can’t one of his brothers walk with me? I’m not going to do it. I hear a knock on the door. I go and open, but nobody’s there.

  “Hello, zell.”

  “Showken,” I plead. “I’m not walking alone, come get me.”

  “I’m walking with you, love, just trust me,”

  “No, come get me now!” I yell.

  “You are yelling, love, everyone can hear, trust me please.”

  “How do I get there?”

  “Follow my voice and the feeling you get.”

  “Showken, I’m scared.”

  “Me too, I have never done this either.”

  “Shit, you could get me lost then.” I hear him laugh.

  “It’s not funny.”

  “I know, love, please trust me.”

  “Ok, ok, but if I get lost I’m going to be so pissed at you.”

  “You are so beautiful, come,” he says, and my body turns left and start walking.

  “I didn’t expect to fall in love, precious.”

  “I didn’t either.”

  “Yet, you stole my heart, from the first sight.”

  “You annoyed me at first sight.” I laugh, continuing to walk.

  “I fell in love with you, love,”

  “I fell in love with you too.”

  “We will always be together, love.”

  “You will never leave me.”

  “I will never leave you,” I come to some doors. “Come through the doors, beautiful.”

  “Ok.” I open the door and there are people everywhere. Some are smiling, some have tears in their eyes. My eyes fill with tears as I see how beautiful everything looks. A girl who was nothing but a whore is now going to be a princess. I guess dreams do come true.

  “Come forth, love,” Showken says. I turn and see him standing on a stage again. He begins to walk towards me. I have to walk up these stairs with this sexy ass dress, my ass might fall out. I take my time coming up, until we are face to face on the steps. I feel shy and glance down, looking at this pretty dress I’m wearing. He takes my hand and walks me up the stairs until we reach the top. I see Jazz crying, and then I spot Bruiser on the stage. I smile.

  “Turn towards the crowd, my love, let the people see my princess.” I turn, and people give me smiles and nods. This is so weird.

  “I need you to trust me,” He looks at me strangely, and looks around like he hears something. I frown, wondering what’s going on. He locks eyes with me. He gets a huge grin on his face.

  “You are with my Young!” he says.

  “What, no, Showken, people are looking.” He places his hand on my stomach and closes his eyes.

  “Yes, you are, the heartbeat is strong.” He pulls me into a hug, holding me tight. I’m pregnant, already. I close my eyes. “I love you, Wella,” he says. Bruiser comes and stands beside me. Then a warming feeling starts to build within me.

  “Showken, what’s happening?”

  “Trust me, close your eyes.”

  “I want to see.” We stare at each other a few seconds.

  “Ok.”

  The warming feeling turns really hot, and I see fire transferring from Showken to me. My eyes widen as it closes around us, and I look down and see Bruiser inside the fire. It’s not burning us. Showken pulls my face to his.

  “I love you.”

  “I love you more,” I say. We kiss, and the fire gets hotter. Something is happening to me. We stare at each other as the green fire circles all three of us. Finally the warming feeling goes down, and so does the fire. The crowd erupts into clapping and dancing, music. I’m rushed by Jazz, Cess and Beauka.

  “You knocked up?” Jazz says.

  “I’m so happy for you,” Cess says. “This is great.”

  “The next generation of Draglens is officially started,” Beauka says.

  I’m in shock, I can’t speak. Showken never releases my hand. Pulling me over to his father, he too places his hand on me.

  “Yes, she’s carrying a Draglen,” Showken’s dad says. “Congratulations, my daughter, and welcome to the family.” I look at Showken, who is looking at me in amazement. Queen Nala smiles at me. The brothers all come to touch my stomach. Finally, Showken turns to the crowd.

  “Attention, my people, a new Draglen will be born soon, to my Wella, she carries a Young!” He excites the crowd and they go wild. I step closer to him.

  “Beautiful, you look amazing, your hair, eyes, everything, now you have my Young. You hungry?”

  “You are such a sweet kind dragon.”

  “Yes, well, I’m going to change so we can go.”

  “We not staying here?”

  “Ohh no, I’m taking you to a special place, to eat and to make love to my Wella, my pregnant Wella.”

  He walks me down the stairs, and two brothers follow, I’m sure one is called Warton, the other is Layern. We stop in the field as Showken changes b
efore my eyes, and I feel awesome, knowing he’s all mine. I rub my belly, wondering what it will be like to carry a dragon.

  “Come, Marilyn, we will help you up.”

  “I’m to ride on top of Showken?”

  “Yes,” Warton says. He seems mean.

  “Ok.” We get to Showken, and Layern lifts me up until I’m around his neck. The dress is perfect; my train is spread across his back and my legs are hanging.

  “Hold on tight,” Layern says, I smile and Showken lifts up in the air, and it feels so free. I laugh out loud as we fly away. I turn and notice Bruiser has blond hair now, with piercing green eyes. I love Showken, I lean over and say.

  “Thank you for this wonderful day, my dragon,” I chuckle. I hold on as he speeds away.

  ***

  We land on a huge cliff covered in grass. It’s so beautiful. He changes back into human form. He puts his wrap on walking towards me.

  “I have a big surprise for you,” he says, walking me into the forest away from the cliff. We come to a stop. There’s a home just ahead. It looks huge.

  “It’s small, only 15 rooms, but it will be our private oasis when we need time to ourselves away from everyone.” He bends and kisses my belly. “I didn’t expect a Young so soon,” he says. “But this home will come in handy for all our Youngs.”

  “You’re giving me a castle?”

  “Well, I’m going to be there too.” He smiles.

  “Come, let’s eat.” he says, turning me to a table full of everything one could desire. He turns me again, and there are three long tables filled with huge cupcakes.

  “Plan on keeping me here for some time, huh?”

  “Oh I plan on keeping you forever, my beautiful Wella.” I turn, and give him a kiss that starts the warming feeling, maybe food will wait.

  Thank you for taking the time to read SHOWKEN, the second book in the Draglen Brothers series. Please enjoy the first chapter of the next book, “LAYERN.”

  LAYERN

  I should never have put my life on hold for her. Now that I’m back to myself, I’m catching up with as many females as I can. Five years, shit, I will never go that long without sex again. I love sex. It’s the best part of life. I’ve always had the upper hand with any female I take to bed. Now that Showken has a Wella, he can’t go on the hunt with me for new women, so I have enlisted Gemi and Fewton. They are always happy to please women like I do. I’m glad we are taking a break from Earth. Father wants all the family around Marilyn, since she’s carrying the first Draglen descendent for the next generation. He’s very cautious about things of this nature. I’m sure Cess will be with Young soon, also. Well, I have been waiting for Gemi and Fewton for a few minutes now, we are flying to a neighboring land, Noke. It’s filled with beautiful female dragon-shifters, plus it’s where Malio lives. She and I were in love, or I was in love with her. I wanted her to be my Wella until I found she had been with another dragon-shifter, my cousin. After killing him, I could not stand to look at her. I took a vow of celibacy until my love no longer belonged to her. I’m hoping to let her see how happy I can be without her. When I look over my shoulder, I spot Gemi and Fewton.

  “What took so long?” I ask, studying them. I’m the brother you can’t lie to. I would know. Though I don’t do exact predictions, I’m usually right. The gift I have is hard to explain, I received it from my mother’s side of the family. My gift is not as strong as Mother’s; I can’t predict the future as well as she can, but feelings, thoughts, I’m pretty good with that, especially with dragons, humans are more complex at times, but over time I can break down what they are hiding, too.

  “Gemi has been playing with some of the servants,” Fewton says. As they reach me, I feel myself getting excited. Lately I can’t stop myself from wanting female company. I really deprived myself far too long.

  “Well, I’m ready to change into our dragons so we can go,” I say. My brothers nod in agreement, and we spread out to give ourselves room as we change. My dragon is blue, Mother says because I have the gift of Joha, or moods of knowing. We all change and fly to Noke.

  ***

  Making it there in good time, we transform back into human form, in a field that is reserved for just the Draglen family. The servants are there waiting with wraps for us.

  “Ok, brothers, I am pretty sure I hear music, which means sexy dancing dragon females,” I say, sniffing the air. “It also seems we have a few other species out to play, mermaids and fairies.” I smile, remembering how much fun they can be.

  “Layern,” Gemi says. “I’m glad you are back. I thought you would stay celibate.”

  Fewton is too busy walking towards the music even to think about what we are saying. Fewton loves women just as much as I do. Gemi likes to please them, but he wants a Wella. The music gets louder, and I can hear the singing. This is going to be a fun night. Fewton has found a few females to play with. Gemi looks at me.

  “I’ll see you in the morning?” he asks. I smile, and nod. None of us currently has a Giver. We like variety, but sometimes we take a Giver just so we don’t have to seduce. Gemi heads over to the garden, where a group is drinking and dancing. I’m one of the best dancers among my brothers. Making a female of any species orgasm during dancing is pleasurable for me. I see a couple of dragons eyeing me, I can even hear them speaking about me. “Prince Layern is here,” one says. “Prince Layern, ohh, just to have one night.” I walk their way. I can make their dream a reality.

  Hello, lecenas,” I say. Lecena means flower. In Kalin it’s a great compliment to call a female a flower. They both smile, and I pull them to the middle of the dancing area. Everyone’s body is twisting, turning, and grinding on one another. The music is sensual and sexy. The dragon females begin to dance with me. I squeeze the hips of the one with the golden eyes, as I pull her closer. The other one, with pink eyes, has her back to me as she dances, sliding up and down my body. We get a rhythm going and they are mush in my hands. I’m able to touch them any place I want. We kiss as we dance. I’m having fun when I spot a woman with red hair staring at me with piercing light orange eyes. She’s a dragon, but not all the way. How can that be? The only half dragon is in Marilyn’s stomach. The law allowing half dragons has only been approved in the last hundred years, so where did she come from? I have never seen her before. She walks with such grace and class. You would think she was royalty. I would have known it if this were the case, though. We know all the other royal families on this planet. I can no longer focus on the dragon women I’m dancing with; I must know who this dragon is. I let my gift seek for her, yet even though we are making eye contact, my gift is blocked. She smiles as if she knows. I give both dragons a kiss and walk straight for her.

  “Hello.”

  “Hello,” she replies back.

  “Your name, please?” I ask.

  “Prince Layern, I know who you are. You should know who I am.” I hear the hurt in her voice. This woman is a mystery. I narrow my eyes. I don’t like playing guessing games.

  “You know who I am, good, then tell me your name.”

  She stares directly at me. We don’t blink. She takes a deep breath, and gives me a smile.

  “My name is Reseda, and I’m dragon and human, the first of my kind.” She speaks with such pride. I know this cannot be true.

  “Reseda, you lie.” I snap. “The first of that kind will be born to my brother’s Wella.” I never get pissed, but her telling such a lie is disrespectful. I’m not sure what kind of magic she’s playing with, but I do smell human cells within her body.

  “I only speak the truth,” she says, looking into my eyes. “You should ask Queen Nala who I am. She knows, as she banned me from Cortamagen.” I’m thrown by her beauty. Her skin is flawless, her body is perfect and she’s offended me.

  “Keep the Queen, my mother, out of your speech,” I say. “If she knew you spoke with such disrespect, she would have your head.” This Reseda has me angry and aroused at the same time. I really want to lick her
pretty skin. She looks and smells amazing.

  “I don’t care about your queen,” she snaps. “Far as I can tell, she’s an evil dragon.”

  Who the hell is this?

  “Reseda,” I say, stepping closer. “I’m not sure how many passes I can give you, with that tongue of yours, you know I’m willing to overlook everything you said, and allow you to make it up to me, with that venomous tongue you have, all over my body.” We are now only about an inch apart. I hear her heart beating faster. She looks a little shaken at what I just said.

  “How dare you?”

  “I do dare, do you accept?”

  “No, you need to walk away from me.” She glares and her eyes flicker. She’s a dragon, alright.

  “Reseda, this is getting serious, I came to Noke to find a dragon for the night, to please her, everywhere. Would you like that?” I ask, sliding my hands around her waist. I start moving her body with the beat of the music. She rolls her eyes, and begins to dance with me. I can’t believe how good a dancer she is. Her body is all over me, I feel my sex rising as she brings a leg around my waist, holding me as she climbs my body, twisting her body sensually. She throws her head back, letting the dancing control her body, but not her mind. I find myself wanting her now. I run my hands up her body, letting her lead. She leans back as she lets her body continue the lovely moves. I smile, knowing she will be in a bed with me tonight. The music stops. She slides down my body. I look her in the eyes as she tries to break my hold.

  “I have to go. My time is up.” She pushes harder against me. I squeeze tighter.

  “No, I like our time together, and I would like to continue to have more time with you in private.”

  “You don’t understand, I have no choice, I sneak into Cortamagen. My time is limited before Queen Nala senses my presence.”

  “Reseda, you need to explain.”

  “Listen, I thought I could hate you, but I see now you don’t know about me. You really don’t want me, I’m not human, not dragon, in between species.” She looks around. I keep my eyes on her. “I have to go, but it was nice to meet one of the Draglen brothers, I’ve only heard stories about you from my mother.”
