"This is princess Zoila, from the Rex clan of Red dragons. This is Ravina, Malachi's breedmate." Of all people, his mother introduced them. What was she trying to do?
Zoila curtsied to greet her the human way, "it is nice to meet you Ravina."
"Princess Zoila is here to meet Malachi in hopes of an alliance between our clans." Saul made a deeper introduction.
If Ravina was surprised, she didn't show it. She curtsied, "the pleasure is all mine," she told Zoila.
"Now that everyone is here, let's eat," his mother smiled.
She showed Zoila and Zara where to sit. Zoila sat to his right and Ravina to his left. Malachi noticed that her face had a bit more color, her lips a soft pink, and her scent… he tried to avoid it but she smelled of jasmine and lavender.
He could not smell all the delicious food on the table. He wanted her. He hungered for her. Why was he suddenly like this now?
