be a part of this, I refuse.” I took a step
closer, both of my hands held aloft. “You’re wrong, there’s no way this can
come to pass.”
    “The shifter law is truth and you know it. They’re an anomaly and must be
stopped. We need you.” My sister tried again, but I shook my head, my hair
bouncing on my naked shoulders.
    “I can’t let you go, Jess, you know that. I’m oath bound.”
    “Find a way around it,” I warned her.
    “Shift to dragon and we’ll decide this in the old manner.” One of the
other females, a short curvy redhead, transformed long enough to speak before
turning back into a black dragon.
    I simply stared at her, and then in a heartbeat I felt the energy consume
me, but instead of my wolf … I became a dragon. My scales were the blue of my
eyes, and as I spread my wings the other two dragons launched into me, except
for Mischa, who was still human. I clawed and bit back, but was vastly out-dragoned.
The pain felt real as they proceeded to tear me to shreds. 
     
    Screams
pulled me from sleep and I realized they were my own, my fear so very real and
pungent that the scent coated the inside of my room. Before I could blink or
pull the sweaty shirt off my body, there were four men in my room in varying
stages of undress, holding weapons. Tyson had magic energy gathered in his
hands.
    “Jessa,” Braxton said, as he lifted his head and scented the room. He
moved in a blink across to me. In the same moment I was in his arms.
    I struggled against him, tears pouring down my cheeks as I fought the
fear overwhelming me.
    Maximus was growling as he reached the side of the bed. “What the fuck?
Is she crying? Who do I have to kill, Jess babe? Tell me what happened.”
    I almost laughed, they’d die if they knew it was only a dream. Right now
they were still talking over my head.
    Braxton had started barking orders. “I can’t scent anyone else in here,
but her fear is real. Check the perimeter and I’ll search inside.” 
    “Wait,” I stuttered out. “It was just a bad dream.”
    Braxton’s arms tightened around me, his warmth helping to quell the final
shudders of paralyzing fear. In the human world, this relationship the five of
us had would probably be viewed as odd, but they were my pack. Supernatural
packs always stayed close together. It calmed our souls.
    “A dream?” Tyson sounded dubious. “You never dream, and even if you did
you were reacting to something physical. That wasn’t just your mind, that was
your entire body.”
    He was right. Weirdly enough I’d reacted as if I’d really been there, not
merely mentally creating the situation.
    Braxton lowered me back onto my bed, and when I started to shake and hug
my legs, the four of them crowded onto the soft surface and comforted me with
touch.
    “Tell us what happened.” Jacob held my hand tightly. I could feel
soothing fey energy seeping into me.
    I quickly detailed the dream. As I was putting it into words … well, it
didn’t sound scary. But something within that event had created heart-racing
fear. I just wish I knew what it was.
    “Do you think it means anything?” I asked. “Or was it simply a by-product
of Mischa mentioning her dreams of being a dragon.”
    “So there was more than one female dragon?” Braxton asked.
    I nodded. That’s why all the dragons had seemed so delicate, they’d all
been female.
    “There were three and … myself.” Because apparently I was also a dragon
shifter.
    I felt like such a moron. “I’m being stupid. It was just a dream,” I said,
waving my hands agitatedly. “Just a dream.”
    I forced myself to calm, but the moment the quads moved off the bed panic
flooded through me again. I hadn’t realized how much their presence had been
keeping it at bay. I bit the inside of my cheek. I wouldn’t ask them to stay. I’d
shown enough weakness tonight. 
    “We’ll stay with you until you fall asleep,” Braxton and Maximus said
together. Again it was as if these men could
