Sir Robert did all the talking as we reached his SUV. He’d gotten rid of that old rust bucket he’d used to drive and bought the meanest black four-wheel drive anyone had ever seen.
Sammy took the front with the rest of us climbing into the back.
George and Dean said that they would join us later that night.
The drive was excruciating as we were all super excited to see the manor.
He pulled in, in front of a large wooden gate. It was gorgeous, made from a deep mahogany with huge letters spelling out their surname carved into the wood.
“The gate is gorgeous.” Sammy’s voice broke and her father laughed.
“It’s just the gate, Sammy. Wait till you see your room.”
We all giggled as the gate opened and my heart started to bounce a bit faster as a huge double story manor began to reveal itself through the trees.
Gasps filled the air.
The house was colossal, built with dark stone brick and the biggest windows I had ever seen.
Vines ranked all over the walls.
I felt like a dwarf against this giant structure in front of me.
Sir Robert parked and we all got out, not saying a word.
The second story had balconies, but they weren’t the type I was familiar with. These reminded me of the openings of caves. They had no railings and for the love of blueberries I couldn’t understand why they were built like that. I was starting to feel that they weren’t balconies at all. It must be a house built dragon style. I was going to live in a Dragon house.
“Okay, now I’m worried none of you have said a word, except that the gate is beautiful.”
Sammy flung her arms over her dad’s neck. “It’s stunning Dad.” She let him go. “Is that what I think it is?” She pointed at the cave-like hole I was staring at.
“Blake told you about it?”
She nodded.
Just then, a huge purple dragon dove out from the clouds and landed on the balcony we were staring at. Everyone gasped at how fast he’d got. Tith was at least a day’s ride from Elm; he’d flown here in less than an hour.
He walked into the opening and the last thing I saw was his spiky tail disappearing.
“Wrong room, Son!” Sir Robert yelled and we all laughed.
I now understood why they were built this way. None of them had to use the front door, they each had their own separate entrance to their rooms. My mouth gaped. The house didn’t even shake when he landed and Blake was massive.
“That is so frawsome!” I yelled.
Everyone laughed. Including Becky who was just staring at everything like I was.
“Come, let me show you guys your rooms,” Sir Robert said and led us through the big front door.
A beautiful lobby greeted us with a set of stairs at the back. It had a big stone floor and a luscious cream carpet with a table and vase filled with beautiful flowers in the middle. He led us through a hallway, filled with pictures of his entire family.
I stopped and looked at one. It was of Lucian and Blake, standing arm in arm, about twelve or thirteen years old, both smiling like nothing was ever going to come between them.
My heart clenched and I felt Sammy’s arm around me.
“They were really such great friends, the best. If only I could go back and warn them what was going to happen.”
“What do you mean, warn them?”
“It was the summer before the darkness started. They’d fought so much and eventually Lucian gave up.”
“He never gave up, Samantha. Blake told me once that it was his light, reflecting—”
“Just shut up.” Blake walked past us wearing a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, with no shoes.
I sighed deeply.
Sammy grunted.
“Don’t,” I said.
“He is so arrogant.”
“He has a point; I shouldn’t be here, Sammy. This is your home. Not mine.”
“Don’t ever say that, Elena. You are like family. My father was your father’s dragon. Do you have any idea what that was like?”
“No, because I didn’t get that chance,” I said a bit too loudly. Why can’t they get that?
