it all pissed him off.
“That is exactly why we need to talk. You irritate me to the point I want to rip your tail off and shove it in that big fucking mouth of yours. Of all the dragons in the universe, fate put us together. Don’t get me wrong. You are my brother and I’d lay my life on the line to defend you. But you are the immature pain in my ass brother that needs the ever loving shit beat out of you more than once a day. How the hell are we supposed to spend eternity together and not rip each other’s throat out?”
Jex’s face twisted in a pout. He knew he got on Drakk’s nerves, but hearing his true feelings stung. “It’s not that bad…” He turned around, not wanting to show weakness in front of their fearless leader. He had hoped that the newfound mating information would bring them closer together. Obviously, it only added another thorn in Drakk’s ass.
“Jex…”
“Dude, don’t. If being in a triad with me is so bad, then it isn’t meant to be. Fate fucked up.” Jex turned and left, shifting the moment he got to the mouth of the cavern.

Aislinn had gone out to get some fresh air and clear her head when she saw Jex storm off to the skies. She hadn’t meant to hurt him and felt the guilt rise in her chest. She was scared. Who wouldn’t be, it was just too crazy to think about, not that she had a choice. She didn’t. What freaked her out was not that they were dragons, but that she had feelings for two men she hardly knew and didn’t know how to handle it. She had endured relationships that didn’t work and knew that she wasn’t cut out for any kind of commitment. Things always ended badly. She had finally come to the conclusion that she was destined to be alone. Now that there was even a suggestion she was fated to be loved by not only one man but two was a lot to accept. The fact that they were dragons pushed her weirdness scale just a little too far. And yet, she stood hoping she could find Jex and make things better. She looked to the skies, watching him soar above the cloud cover and disappear. Unless she sprouted wings anytime soon, there was no way she could catch up. So she sat, her back leaned against the cool hard stone and she closed her eyes, allowing the warm sun soak in. It melted some of the stress away, giving her a clear mind to evaluate the newly found information. She was a witch. Wow. Who would have thought? She was as simple as they came. Always had been a bit eccentric, and more in tune with the Earth than her friends, but to think she might hold some sort of magic that could help was insane. Instead of scaring her, it excited her. It all did when she thought about it.
Most people would think she needed to be committed or given some meds because she was just accepting of all this. Her childhood had not been normal, that was probably the reason she was able to accept the strange and unusual. Aislinn smiled to herself and thought back over the last few days, yeah, she needed some meds . But did she really have a choice? It didn’t seem like she did, if she thought about the way things were planned for everyone by fate, if you will, then she needed to accept this as the hand that was dealt to her. At least she would enjoy the ride , she thought and stared intently to the skies.

Drakk had gone out in search for Aislinn to explain. When he spotted her sitting in the sun, he couldn’t help but just stare. She was gorgeous. The sun shimmered off her hair in golden and rich chocolate hues that matched the golden specks in her light brown eyes. He couldn’t resist reaching down to touch it. Her eyes popped open and she let out a blood-curdling scream, making him jump backwards and teeter on the edge of the cliff. He fought to balance himself, sliding in the loose rocks. Aislinn jumped up and grabbed him just before he pummeled to his death…or so she thought. He had already readied himself to shift, but changed his mind last minute and allowed her to save
