Hidden Flame 40

**Avery**
After our announcement and the most erotic experience I had ever had, we ate and danced. The Trio took turns dancing
with me too and made sure that at least one of them was with me all night long too. The Hags kept their distance, but I
still felt their icy gazes. Normally, I would ignore it, however, after all I have been through and that this is my party I am
going to put them in their place. I look at The Trio, “Follow me.”
Eyes full of concern, Conner said, “Avery, please be careful.”
I will be but I am not alone now. I have Regina and The Trio too. I walked over to the table that The Hags and their
families were sitting at. I look at each of the women who have tormented me and tried to kill me. “Now you will learn
your place especially, you Lenore. I am not just a dragon, but I am your Queen.” I step back and say, “Ladies, and I use
that term extremely loosely, get up!”
From behind, Cassius wraps his arms around my waist and leans down to whisper, “Do it!” His voice deepens to that of
Asher, “Then you are ours.”
That made me incredibly nervous but made Regina immensely excited and aroused. I am not sure that I am ready for
what the dragons have planned. I push my anxiousness aside and stare at The Hags. “Bow!” I commanded as I pointed to
the floor before me. Clint gave a low whistle as Conner laughed. Cassius kissed the top of my head tenderly. Maybe
having three mates will work out.
They reluctantly bowed but still had contempt in their eyes. I laughed as I turned to The Trio. “Take me home. I am all
yours.”
Clint smiled, “As you wish.” He scooped me up and rushed outside where Carter’s golden and black wings protruded
from his back. With me securely in his arms, Clint leaped into the air. I felt my hair flutter in the breeze as his wings
flapped, taking us higher and higher. I squealed with both shock and delight. “I want you to remember this flight,” he
said as he looked into my eyes before he kissed me.
He did a few maneuvers before we landed on the balcony of his room. The rest of The Trio were waiting on us. We all went into his room. Clint sits on his couch with me on his lap.
Cassius says, “Avery, we know that you aren’t ready to mate and we will not pressure you, but our dragons would like to
know if Regina is.”

I chew on my lip. “Do…do we have to do anything if our dragons want to?”
Cassius’s eyes blaze red as Asher speaks through him, “Sweet Avery, no.” He strokes my hair and kisses my cheek. “When
dragons mate, the only thing that we ask our humans to do is watch and feel. Carter, Caleb, and myself would only touch
a human with her permission, and don’t worry as it is impossible for a dragon to mate with a human because we can only
bond with them. I know that you have read about our mating rituals but I know that you also fear us, but aren’t you the
least bit curious?”
“Maybe.”
He chuckles, “Our humans will keep you company and they will behave. I promise you because I intend to mark Regina as
mine and since you are hers that makes you mine too. Everything will be okay. I promise.”
He winked before his eyes faded to Cassius’s tepid blue. I cupped his face before I looked at his brothers. “Alright, our
dragons can mate.” They smiled and kissed my cheeks and lips before they stepped back to allow their dragons to slowly
emerge. Regina stayed inside of me to watch them for a few moments. Seemingly satisfied, she emerged from me.
The guys pull me over to the bed where they position themselves around me. Cassius lays to my right with his arm
around my waist while Clint is on my left with his arm around my shoulder. Conner laughed before he gently moved my
legs apart so that he could use me as a pillow. I laughed because of how strange this all was, but I felt oddly calm. Regina
does too because she purrs as she comes over to lightly lick my cheek before going to a spot on the floor at the end of
the bed.
We watched as the dragons circled Regina. She began to hum as she started to glow. Asher’s eyes glowed red but
sparked gold in rhythm with her hummed tune. Soon the other two dragons started as well. I felt their excitement and
love wash over me and the tune reminded me of the ones my mom sang. Cassius said, “This is why we must be here to
experience it. They are a part of us as we are to them. They are not just going to express physical intimacy but spirituality
too. If you close your eyes, you might see some of the images that they are sharing with each other.”
I felt secure so I closed my eyes. I saw each of the dragons take turns caressing her and showing her images of what they
loved about her. I also saw a few of myself too. I had no clue that their dragons had pretended to hate me to protect me.
It is too bad that it didn’t work, but we are all in a good place now because I feel it. I think that I can begin to forgive
them for a lot but I am still going to torture them a bit too.
They curiously start to explore each other’s scales, gently touching and licking. Their bodies begin to vibrate. There’s no
aggressiveness but there is a primalness to it as each dragon begins to take turns molding to Regina. First, it was her and
Asher molding as the other two fed energy towards them. Then Carter and Caleb each took their turns. It was nothing
like I would have thought. There was no blood, no pain only love
