mate was a human sacrifice from the main island years ago.
He rather liked humans, his mate was caring, loving, and playful; the only quality she did not share with the dragons was the ability to shift into one. He had grown accustom to it over the years and even had a saddle type device fashioned for her so he could safely carry her around during flight.
Nick on the other hand was wary of the human. He only held tightly to her earlier because he was told to. She was so frail and small he was afraid he would break her. There had been stories…
The trio finally came to the back door of the alpha’s house and opened it to the beauty of the back yard.
“Right this way.” Cain said holding his hand out.
Miley stepped through followed closely behind by Cain and Nick. They walked down the stone path, which lead to a small cabin.
It was made with logs from the surrounding area, flowers and vines grew on it as if it was part of the natural scenery. Walking up on the porch Cain sighed, “This is where you will be staying.”
“What have I done wrong?” Miley whimpered.
“Inside.” Nick snapped. He wasn’t afraid to yell at the woman. She may have been a woman but she was a human one.
Cain’s head snapped over to Nick and he watched as the small woman nervously scooted though the door and away from Nick. “I heard you have a camp with some things…”
“Yes.” Miley squeaked.
“I’ll be sure to send someone to pack it up and bring it here. I’m sure you would like a change of clothing?” Cain said. He may have been a stern enforcer but he was still a man standing before a beautiful woman.
“Please.” Miley whimpered.
Nick slammed the door. He stood on the small wooden deck glaring at his fellow guard. “What is wrong with you?” Nick hissed.
“What is wrong with you?” Cain replied.
“You are befriending a human?” Nick growled.
“Pish,” Cain snorted. “I am being civil, she is scared…”
“HUMAN!” Nick growled.
“And…” Cain drawled. Nick took a menacing step forward. Cain raised an eyebrow curiously. “Seriously, you going to threaten me like that?”
“What part of human aren’t you worried about…?” Nick snapped, he wouldn’t fight Cain, he wouldn’t win anyway.
“You’re scared of her?” Cain chuckled; he eyed the man before him then added, “you are…”
“No!” Nick blurt out rubbing his hand through his hair and looking away.
“She’s just a human Nick. Have you forgotten that I am mated to a human woman?” Cain questioned.
“A tamed one,” Nick snorted.
“Tame? Yeah right… like you can tame a woman.” Cain chuckled. “That woman in there” Cain pointed back toward the cabin, “Is more frail and vulnerable than you can imagine. She’s terrified right now, far from home, and alone on an island where she’s only mostly saw men. She probably did not even know this island had people on it!” Cain yelled. He stepped from the deck. “I am going to ask Max to go out and pack up her things. I’ll be back in a few minutes. Don’t do anything stupid.”
Nick rolled his eyes, him do something stupid, ha! He looked around the small deck, spotting a swing on the far side, brought himself over to it and sat down.
“This is so stupid. Why do I have to sit here and babysit a human?” Nick snarled to himself after what seemed like an hour.
“Why would those two bring a dangerous human to our village? Now… I’m stuck watching her. What if she goes crazy and torches the place?” He hissed. Nick had been brewing in his anger the entire time that Cain was gone.
Miley walked around the small cabin, scared, hungry, and alone. There was a small kitchen and since she was locked inside she figured nobody would care or notice if she found something to eat.
Gingerly she padded over to the cupboards. On the counter sat a bowl of fruit, mostly strange looking ones, but some which she knew she would like. Strangely enough, when she pulled the cupboards
