BOOK THREE OF THE VALLEY OF THE IMMORTALS

The other families (vampires and shifters) delude themselves of having the kind of power and fear the dragons command at the mountains. Seth Bucanan is going to become their mouth piece. A role revered by so many but coveted by none. His job doesn't end there because Osei (alpha of an all wolf pack) and Nicholae (A lord of the Tchovsky manor) still need an ally in the dragon's nest.

Fauna has been sent to help the curly-haired dragon servant fend of ghosts and uncover secrets. Secrets that neither one might actually wish to reveal. The skeletons were put in closets for a reason.

SNIPPET:

'Did you know I was kidnapped?'

'Yes.'

The potion hadn't worn off as off yet. A good thing.

'Did you plan on looking for me?'

'No,' he answered.

'He was going to eat me. Chop me up and sauté me over a pit. Did you know?'

'My mother may have mentioned it in passing.'

She crossed her hands looking down at him unsure if she should laugh or scream.

'Still, you wouldn't have come for me?' Her tone elevated with her hand balled up beside her.

'No,'

He couldn't lie when she asked him a direct question but it made her angrier that this was his truth.

'Why?'

'I knew you could take care of yourself. I also hoped you wouldn't be able to find your way back to us.'

'You're a butthole.' She wanted to kick him in all the sensitive places and then string him up for his mother to find. Sadly he'd be alive and not dead meat like Fauna really wanted.

'You asked.' His time taking the defensive side as if he had any right.

'Let's go.'

He scrunched his face, 'Where?'

'Somewhere I can kill you.' She shuffled to a halt,

'Do you have your wallet?'

'No, it's on my dresser.'

She saw it and then it was in her hand.

'Hurry, my patience is running thin.' And her time was running out.

'Here again?'

'Shut up, I don't want to hear your voice,'

She threw the items at him when she gathered what she needed. She offered his card to the warlock.

'Do you mind if we use your kitchen?'

She batted her lashes at the store clerk.

'I'm not really allowed to...'

'Your boss knows us, he wouldn't mind.'

Fauna pushed her way to the back leaving Seth no other option to follow.

'We'll be out of here before he even comes back.'

'That wouldn't be an issue if he knows you.'

Fauna smiled at the innocent clerk and went about her work.

She had two separate potions to make.

She quickly bottled more of her brews. She'll keep them on her person even as she slept in whatever form.

The second one was in the amount of one teaspoon which she kept separate from the rest.

She gulped one of the vials after she cleaned up.

'Are you done?' Seth yawned leaning against the wall.

'Almost,' she replied closed the space between them, grabbed him by the shirt, and brought him down. She pressed her lips on his and let him go. He didn't let her retreat, collecting her small waist against him.

He was fixated on her lips tasting it, taking her chaste kiss a step further drawing her lips in his soft ones.

She was taken by surprise. That had to be why she didn't react in time. But she quickly regained control of her senses stepping back opening with her face burning a shade rivaling her roots. Her heart banged against her ribs like a beating drum.

'You kissed me.'

'You kissed me first.' He scratched the back of his head.

'That was for a spell.' She tried looking at him but failed on several attempts.

'Exactly. I was making sure the spell worked...' His eyes flashed angrily.

'Another spell? What is it this time?'

'You were all for it a second ago.'

His Adam's Apple bobbed as his throat worked.

'Is it going to kill me?'

'Probably not.'
