The Dragon's Wing: A Paranormal Shapeshifter Romance
Page 16
Grinning, Brendan stood up and shed everything he was wearing, and Rhi stood to do the same. They hugged each other and kissed a few times on the way to laying on the bed again. Brendan’s hands found Rhi’s breasts, while her hands moved down to play with his balls and cock. He gave a shuddering little sigh.
Now fully unclothed and beneath Brendan’s body again, Rhi was more than willing to explore every muscle on Brendan’s body. They writhed together, tasting and touching everything they could—arms, legs, feet, hands, bellies, butts—everything. The intensity between them increased almost to the point where they were glowing.
Finally, blissfully, Brendan pressed Rhi into the mattress and mounted her, sliding his cock into her slick hole with a groan of delight. They moved together with wild abandon, reveling in the feel of their joined bodies.
Inside Rhi’s head, Aene’s eyes sort of rolled back, and she started making little growling noises, almost like a purring cat instead of an ancient dragoness. As Rhi’s body convulsed with orgasm, the dragoness reacted with surprise. Dragons never took so long, nor did the pleasure they got from the act feel nearly as strong. It was a real surprise.
Damn, that was really nice!
Quiet, Aene, Rhi admonished. Now it’s cuddle time.
***
It was about a month later when all the mated pairs finally decided to simply hold one big celebration at which they could all unite. Because humans felt the need for marriage licenses, these were also obtained.
They were each signed by the officiant during the course of the party, officially making Rhi Brendan’s wife, Margot Todd’s wife, and Laurie Rory’s wife. Though Rory was reluctant to be melded to a dragon himself, Laurie thought the whole idea was a lot more exciting than enduring a double shift at the emergency room.
“Why are you so afraid of melding with a dragon, Rory?” she wanted to know. “Brendan seems like a really great guy, and look at Rhi. Since she’s melded with Aene, her self-confidence is better than ever, her energy levels have increased a lot, and she looks great. It’s like all the appealing things about her just keep getting more appealing, you know? So, what exactly is it that you’re afraid of?”
“That all of my thoughts would no longer be my own. That everything I say and do are not my own. I don’t know when I look at these two, how much of them are their dragons, and how much of them are simply themselves. Doesn’t that bother you?”
“It doesn’t bother me,” Rhi told him. “Until I had Aene, there was always a part of me that was completely alone, no matter how full the room might be, and no matter how fulfilled I am to be with Brendan, there was still that small part of me that was uncertain, lying forgotten at the back of my mind. And the truth is, I believe that I was always meant to be one with my dragon, that the empty spot was a place that had always been reserved just for her. So no, I really don’t believe it’s a bad thing. I’d say that in reality, I’m finally at peace.”
“I’d like to keep my angsty aloneness, thank you very much.”
“But what about me?” Laurie asked. “Do you mind if I take a dragon into me?”
“Is it really that important, Laurie?” he sighed. “Because you can if you really want to. I just think it’s not for me.”
Rhi said, “I think you should know that getting a dragon isn’t easy. It requires you to learn a great many things before Aene will even consider doing the thing. It’s not something for everybody, and you don’t do it just because it’s the ‘in’ thing. I’m not really sure you understand what having your own dragon really means.”
“We’ll begin to teach you, of course,” Brendan added. “But that’s no guarantee that you’ll learn everything, and no guarantee that a free dragon will agree to the binding. We just want to be sure that you know it’s a difficult and dangerous road.”
“Don’t worry about me,” Laurie scoffed. “With friends like all of you, I believe I’m ready for anything.”
“Well then, a toast,” said Brendan as he held up his glass. Every one of the hundred guests turned to raise their glasses at his prompting. He said, “To new beginnings, new friendships, and the new lives that will soon be brought into being. May they all flourish and prosper in the world we’ve provided, and may that world continue to be improved through our efforts to make it a place worthy of us all.”
“Hear, hear!” the crowd cheered.
***
When Rhi went into labor, it was another day of celebration. Family and friends all gathered together in the castle to await the good news, but only a very few people were allowed in to watch the event.
Aene stood just outside, both to protect and to observe. Luna and Laurie worked together to make certain everything was going all right. Brendan and the doctor, Dr. Michaels, were both on hand waiting for the labor to be over and the birthing to begin.
“Okay, Daddy, she’s ready to push,” Laurie announced, smiling Brendan’s way.
Brendan put a hand on Luna’s head as he approached. “You sure you’re ready for this, kid? You could always step out for the gory bit.”
“Don’t even worry, Dad, I’m stoked,” Luna said confidently.
“Well, all right then,” he grinned. Then he set a hand on Rhi’s head instead. “And how are you doing, love of my life?”
“Remind me again why I thought squeaking another human out of my body was a good idea?” she grumbled, gritting her teeth. “Aene’s been trying to dull the pain, but it isn’t working.”
Dr. Michaels finished his exam as Brendan pulled her hair out of her face. “Because she’s going to be worth it. Believe me, once our baby is with us, you’ll forget all about this part. I guarantee it.”
“The baby’s head is starting to crown,” Dr. Michaels said. “Okay Rhi, listen now. Your baby is ready, now it’s up to you. On the next contractions, we’re going to try to push her free. It’s going to be a bit of work, but just listen to your body. It will know what to do, and when, if you just let go. Are you ready?”
“Yes,” she said through gritted teeth. “Brendan? Don’t let go of me.”
“Consider it done,” he agreed.
Epilogue
Three-year-old Morrigan was holding her baby brother, Brant, as they sat in the audience with their mommy to witness Luna’s graduation. Brendan was not used to being a member of an audience, of course, but that didn’t deter him this time. He was much too excited to miss something as important as his daughter’s valedictorian address.
But when she came to the end of her speech, that was the best part.
“I think that my future is looking really bright. Thanks to my family and friends showing me the way, I believe wholeheartedly that helping other people is the best job a girl could ever have. I’ll be joining the most amazing team of spiritualists, mystics, and people-helpers imaginable. And although I know your opportunities in life may not mirror my own, I sincerely hope that your attitudes will.
We all live together in this world, and I believe it would be a much better place to live if we worked together on improving it. So, my wish for each and every one of the graduates here today is that you could go into the world with the desire to help in your hearts. Just a little love could go a really long way. Thank you.”
“I couldn’t be prouder right this moment if I tried,” said Brendan proudly as he gave Rhi’s hand a little squeeze. “Got my wife and kids at my side, and the most wonderful daughter in the world receiving all this applause. There’s nothing more I could ask for tonight.”
“What about another baby?” asked Rhi, smirking at him.
“Seriously?” he gasped. “And you wait until right now to tell me this?”
“Well yeah, you just said you couldn’t be happier if you tried,” she explained. “So, if it makes you happy about another baby, you’d just be happier still. And if you don’t like it so much, well, I couldn’t ask for you to be in a better mood before I let you know.”
Brendan chuckled and shook his head.
“
What’s so funny, magic man?”
“Oh Rhi, do you know why I love you so much? It’s because you’re the most practical girl I know.”
