Story: Cosmo
“Hmm.” No, he would bet it was far enough that they meant it. The snow meant no flying for kids.
“What about you?”
“Huh?”
She nudged him. “Why are your brothers being jerks?”
“Because they don’t know this guy. I mean, I can hear him in my mind.”
“O. M. G. Really? Like, you can really, really hear him?”
Cosmo nodded. “I can really, really hear him.”
“Is it the same as you hearing your brothers?” Arielle was fascinated by mental communication. She was a bit of a hammer, in every psychic situation. And so it was very, very difficult for her to understand that someone was ever trying to speak to her.
He shook his head. “No, no, not the same. Not really at all. I’ve always heard my brothers, you know, before I was born even. Hawk is new.”
And that was the most fascinating part about it. Hawk was new. Hawk wasnewand wanted him without any thought.
Cosmo was used to having sex. He liked having sex. He’d had more than his fair share of sex, if he was honest.
But never with a dragon.
Never, ever with a full-blooded dragon.
Never ever, ever with a full-blooded ancient dragon that was hung like a…
Whoa. Stop.
Teenager.
“Dude, did you know that when you blush, you turn purple? NOT like Cullen’s purple, but likepurple.” Arielle chuckled. “That kind of rocks.”
“Yeah. I kind of feel like I’m blushing all the time right now. I just need the boys to understand how important he is because he really is important to me.”
Arielle teared up, her eyes shimmering. “See, that’s how I feel. I don’t suppose you want to fly down with me and meet her?”
Cosmo shook his head. “Honey, I’m not a strong flyer at the best of times. I’m only half dragon, remember? I’m more flutter than power. This snow would knock me to the dirt.”
She blinked, as if it had just occurred to her how dangerous it could be. “Well, I don’t want you to get hurt.”
“No, and I don’t want you to get hurt.” He winced and kind of shrugged a little bit. “I don’t think your dads want you to get hurt either. I don’t mean emotionally. I mean like, banging against the mountain hurt.”
“Oh.” She pondered that, and it was as if he could see the wheels turning behind her eyes. “Well, why didn’t they just say so?”
“Maybe they did, but you were just too mad?” He chuckled. “My dad is a big green dragon who can move the earth. When Corbin was a teenager, they fought about everything, and Mom would be like, why can’t you talk? And Dad was like, I don’t speak his language.”
She burbled with laughter. “Yeah. Sometimes Poppy Brand and I just can’t do it, and Da steps in. He’s so much easier. Less alpha.”
“That does make a difference.” Alphas could be so damn stubborn.
“So you think they’ll let me see her when the storm is over?”
“I bet they’re eager to meet someone who captures your interest so much, and your pop is a great flier. He can take you down once it’s safe.”
“Okay, cool.” She hugged him all of a sudden. “Thanks, Cosmo. I was so mad!”
“Oh, I hear you, kiddo. So was I.” But he had a better perspective on it now.
