The Dragon's Mail Order Mate: A Paranormal Menage Romance

by Jade White

  It only left splinters and debris. My brother got trapped and died underneath that pile.

  My wife keeps saying she is a warrior who has been to the Dragon Kingdom before, but she had never seen anything like that, either.”

  I sighed as Rowan had brought up my stubborn wife. He also had no clue this wasn’t the traveler, but the man that ended his life.

  “Why don’t you make it official that she is part of your voyage? I am sure she would be an asset to your quest. It is a shame she is dead.”

  “There is a lot more to my wife than her being a warrior. It seems she loathes me. Although she makes a wonderful warrior, her job is to guard the castle. Yes, it is a shame she died. She was a splendid woman to be around when she was in a good mood.”

  The traveler shook his head. “Some women aren’t to be tamed, but they are to join the king in Battle. Those types of relationship are the ones that are a force to be reckoned with, since the king is to protect his queen and she will protect her king. Too bad she did fight everything to accompany you. You weren’t exactly worthy of any of this.”

  “I am unsure what to think anymore. If it wasn’t such a dangerous journey I would have allowed her to join us. She almost got herself killed with the mishap from the bridge. I don’t want to see my queen die in front of me. She tells me often that she can make up her own mind. She also reminds me that if I allowed her to go in the first place, that she wouldn’t have snuck up on the bridge the way she did, but I don’t think that it is safe, no matter what. My queen has also been fruitful with knowledge and has told me that Maelyss will hang us by our feet, especially since we were raised as King Athalos’ sons.”

  “Now why would he do that? You are raised by his hated enemy! Although…” Marvin said. “I am assuming that your young warrior wife is speaking of how Maelyss treats all traitors. I know the prophecy very well and there is more to it than either of you understand or even know about quite yet.”

  “Where is your young queen now?” the wizard asked without making eye contact with me.

  “She is at the castle. I had to lock her away in a tower. I feel incredibly bad to do this, but she hates me with such passion and she won’t listen to anything I say to her. I told her if she escaped when we first left for the quest that I would have to lock her away if she tried. I guess she thought I was joking.”

  “You are telling me as a king and queen you are both on separate journeys on this matter? You are telling me that as you venture off on this deadly quest that you think she will become a common housewife overnight and try hard to please you? Was any of it worth it? She loved you! She was willing to die for you. What was she actually willing die for, though?” the traveler questioned.

  “No, ever since we married she hated me. She kept telling me how she got the short end of the stick.”

  “Let me guess, because of your secret.” The wizard piped up.

  “Of course and she won’t let me forget it. I had been trying to show her compassion and love, but she refuses to accept any of this. We caught up with Terrain and Sadon and heard how they were sent to kill Rowan and me. I made the decision then o bring her to the castle where she would be safe. She refused to even listen to the notion.

  She hated her husband and she hated the fact that I was keeping her prisoner as a queen. I have to admit that even taking her back, she complained and screamed at me the whole way. She wouldn’t even agree that she would have never gotten hurt if she listened to me in the first place. Instead, she had has been torturing me with the fact that I am no better than her father who allowed her to taste freedom for only so long and locked her away.”

  “I am sure that even locking her up in a tower will not stop your bride. She is destined to be here. Didn’t you pass a dress shop on the way here? Perhaps if you bought her a nice dress she would forget everything.”

  “It isn’t funny! I am being very serious at the moment. My wife seemed to hate me completely. How could a dress ever change her attitude about me? It definitely wouldn’t make her a queen and suddenly realize that I am not a terrible husband.

  She has made her mind up and it seems it will take everything in this world to make her forget that.”

  “Can you do me a favor?” the traveler asked as he didn’t even listen to a single word I spoke.

  “What would that be?” I asked.

  “You look as if you are deep in thought.” The wizard said.

  “I am very deep in thought. I guess I have a lot to think about. I have to hurry up and get a couple hours of sleep before making it the rest of the way to the Dragon Kingdom.”

  I watched through the smoke filled pub that a shadowy figure started walking towards us. Although I was expecting Ryia, that wasn’t who I found.

  “Can I help you?” I asked as the shadowy figure wearing a cape sat down at our table.

  There was no answer from this new stranger. The traveler, on the other hand, seemed quite content that this person joined us.

  My skin began to crawl as I looked at the shadowy figure wondering if this was the end.

  The sun was rising as it shone into my room. I was in a strange room, which I didn’t exactly remember, but I knew it wasn’t from my journey or my castle. I was glad nothing had happened to me. I was the first to be awake, but I didn’t seem to be myself. I was confused ever since the wind storm. I felt off and easy confused. I felt as if someone was taking control of my life.

  I had no clue where I was, all I knew was the fact that we were in a strange place. The whole room was different, including the view from my window. All I saw was a foreign kingdom. I knew whatever the kingdom included, it also would include the struggles for meeting Maelyss.

  All I could see on the horizon was the giant cliffs and buildings. I couldn’t remember at all where I was, but I knew I needed to get to the Dragon Kingdom since we were completely lost and we also lost our maps in the water. I knew we were going to have to use the placements of the planets and sun to get us back.

  Ryia walked in and looked at me. My surrounding was still fuzzy, but I didn’t care. The way she was looking at me with those hungry eyes made me feel as if she had been waiting a long time for me to come back to her.

  “I thought you were dead? I saw you die at the castle!” I pointed out as I motioned her to the bed.

  I loved Ryia and seeing her again reminded me that she could calm my soul. I was just hoping that we could move forward with our relationship.

  “You were hallucinating because of a curse that was on you. Marvin worked closely with Maelyss to remove it.”

  “Does that mean Rowan is still alive too?”

  “Of course he is still alive. He is in the room down the hall. Do you want me to wake him?”

  “No, as long as he is no longer my ghost brother and I didn’t watch him die, I am happy. It was strange hallucinations. It felt so real that I lost you, Ryia,” I said as I touched her skin.

  Whatever was happening between us, it seemed as if the magic in the air helped lift the mood for us both. She reached over and began to cuddle me as she looked deep in my eyes.

  She was tired of the reminders that we were married most of the time. Perhaps that is why I was surprised so much that she was even touching my body. This had been the first time she had done this since we got married. It seemed as if being married to me was a fate worse than death itself, or at least that’s how she acted.

  Ryia had proved herself by being loyal at times throughout this journey, where she used her warrior abilities to show us things such as my other two brothers was located.

  “How did we get here?” I asked looking at Ryia.

  She looked as if speaking to her brought her back to reality.

  “What?” she asked in a soft voice.

  “I asked how we got here. Did you have trouble getting me here?”

  Ryia’s face turned a shade of crimson

  “I did have a bit of trouble when you fought me, and yes I had quite
a pleasurable journey. I was just hoping you would be well enough that you would come back to me. It hasn’t been very good for me since I have been worrying about you.” Ryia stated vaguely.

  “At least you slept. I thought you died at the castle because I kept you there. It was so real, Ryia. I am so sorry for even suggesting for you to stay there. I know you are a warrior, but I should never have asked you to do that.”

  “I have to admit something to you.”

  “As long as you aren’t dead, we will be fine,” I mumbled.

  “I was Maelyss’s top warrior before my father sold me. My father at first stripped me of this and made me join the guild where I had to hunt dragons. Thankfully, I refused to kill them. I hated you because you reminded me of this.”

  I shrugged. “We are past that, though.”

  “I guess you could say that. It has been awhile since I slept since we have been so worried about trying to get out of this place.”

  I looked over at her with this sudden desire that I wanted to make love to her. I had been wanting to ever since we got married, but it seemed as if I had been waiting for her to make the move. She seemed anxious about having sex with me since I was a shape-shifter that turned into a dragon.

  My stomach was in knots as I held her close to me since this was the first time she actually allowed me to do this. If she only could see me for the man I was instead of the dragon, then perhaps we wouldn’t have to struggle with any of this.

  “I wish I could wake up every single day like this, with you in my arms,” I whispered.

  Ryia nodded. “I might just like that. I know that I haven’t been the best wife to you.”

  We both knew that we had problems that still needed to be sorted out, but slowly his journey was bringing us closer together. It was much different than the beginning where Ryia had constantly reminded me that she hated my guts. It was as if she was beginning to warm up. There were no words that express how happy I was feeling over this. It seemed as if we were reflecting one another as I looked deep into her eyes.

  How was this happening that I was beginning to feel the love that she was feeling for me?

  Did I do something to actually make her fall in love with me? I didn’t understand it at all, but I could tell I liked it.

  “I have to admit that it feels nice in your arms,” Ryia said as she cuddled closer to me.

  “I have something important to tell you, I love every moment of touching your skin too. It feels like that we are actually married without you trying to run away from me every chance you get.”

  Without another word, after she got me rock hard she suddenly straddled my cock. She accepted every inch of me down to my base. There was something about her being on top that rejuvenated and excited me, since I took it that she was getting more comfortable with me. We both seemed to gasp as it took our breaths away. The feeling was beyond describable. I could feel that she was beginning to cum immediately.

  I had been fantasizing about this moment that she rode my hard dick ever since I set my eyes on her. I wanted her to be comfortable with me, the way wives and husbands should be.

  I loved the feeling as she dropped herself down on my hard cock as I held on to her hips, making her go faster. I knew she wasn’t the only one moaning. She let out a moan with each time that I entered her. I tossed my head back and began to fight the sensation to cum deep inside her. It seemed beyond intense that she was sliding up and down on my cock.

  I felt my legs begin to quiver as I felt the sudden surge of magic and excitement that was both thrilling and seemed to quench my sexual appetite that I never seemed to quench before.

  Her legs began to quiver, and I knew that she was on the verge of cumming very hard all over my hard cock. I held her in my strong arms and continued to lift her up and down faster and faster as I thrust into her body as if it was part of my own pleasure palace. Every movement was making it harder to fight back the feeling of wanting to cum inside her and allowing my hard dick spray it all over her. I lovedfeelingher juices flow all over me.

  Our naked bodies seemed to start a fire within us that neither one was expecting. She said she hated dragons, and I was a monster in her eyes. Naked, we seemed to put all those worries to sleep.

  I continued to kiss her, starting from her lips and down her neck as I gently played with her breast, caressing them lovingly at first. I seemed to love the feeling of her soft breast as I rolled her nipples around with my fingers. It didn’t take long before she began cumming again, and I couldn’t help it as I found myself playing with her clit to try to get her to cum harder. I began rubbing her clit feverishly. My fingers began to pleasure her as I continued to bounce her up and down as she continued to slide up and down as she continued to squirt her juices and was too wet to handle.

  I was enjoying this sudden sexual rage that I was having with Ryia. She began to arch backward as she let out a louder moan of pleasure. My body began to shake as I found myself moaning as well.

  I continued to lift her up and drop myself down on my cock. It was no surprise that I had this feeling and need of a sexual release for a very long time. All the women I had been with weren’t like how Ryia was in bed. My body quivered and shook as I pushed myself to go deeper and faster. My body was filled with a sudden excitement and pleasure as I could feel my own legs shaking.

  I continued to caress her body as I wanted more. She began to touch my body in a loving way that made me wish that this moment would never end with her. I was hoping this was the beginning of her realizing that all I wanted was to love her.

  I began playing with her orgasm, knowing how she liked it and got her to cum before I repositioned myself and hit her g-spot. This only made her want more as she pushed my hand away from my clit and began to take over feverishly. Her fingers were faster than mine, and I could barely hold back as she began to cum again.

  I could tell by the glazed look on her face she was enjoying every single moment of what I was doing. The feeling was unreal, and the pleasure seemed to be exciting compared to anything I had ever felt before. I thrust my cock one last time deep inside her and held her down on it for her to receive her orgasm.

  I began to kiss Ryia passionately. “I don’t ever want this to stop. I like the fact you are warming up to me. I will always love you, my Queen.” I whispered.

  *

  I tried hard to get up. “If we are in the Dragon Kingdom, surely there is a lot to be done. Maelyss needs to help me figure out how to stop shifting in a dragon, or I will die by the hands of the man that raised me.”

  “You are up early and you shouldn’t be in bed! What are you thinking?” Rowan screamed as he popped his head in and saw Ryia and I cuddling together.

  “Don’t you ever knock?” I groaned.

  “You are awake? We have been waiting for so long for you to wake up. The curse seemed to take such a toll on your body that you have been sleeping for months.”

  “I had to relive part of the quest from where we had the wind storm to bringing Ryia back to the castle. Everything seemed so real, yet so wrong. According to a wizard, you died in the wind storm and they sent assassins to kill Ryia.”

  “I am here now and I don’t look like a ghost.”

  His voice seemed to make me jump out of my skin since I didn’t even check to see if she was still in her bed. I was in a hurry to get ready for the quest as well as staring at the sun.

  “You are here now so we can finish our quest and be gone to our own kingdoms.”

  “I have to get ready for the meeting of Maelyss. I am sure you understand that it will include you, Rowan. We are down to the final days to solve the problem. Being in a sleep has given King Athalos the advantage.”

  The thought of King Athalos made me glare immediately. I spoke of his name as if he was the vilest thing on this Earth. He seemed as if he was too busy killing everything around him to even realize what he had in front of him, which were two amazing sons.

  Many times he spoke of how Maelyss
, the King of the Dragons, would harvest the souls of the mortal warriors. He would eat them every morning as the sun came up. I was a bit terrified to even think about meeting this man. There was no other option, though, and I knew it. I was just hoping the pendants in which my mother had left behind would protect my brother and me.

  I looked down to see the pendant around my neck.

  “You don’t understand! You are at the Dragon Kingdom! You are in Maelyss’s lair! There is no time for you to keep running. Maelyss will be here soon enough.”

  “Are you sure I was able to make the journey? Where are you going to stay when Maelyss gets here?” I asked, still confused all together.

  “I can say in my heart that Maelyss wasn’t at all how I expected him to be. It was also a rough journey hauling you here from the cliffs where you thought you were going to die. I don’t know how Ryia and I managed, but we found a way to get you here without horses. I guess there wasn’t a real choice. We needed to get you here and you were fading fast on us.”
