Story: Cosmo
Why not? Hell, he’s an elder dragon. Maybe he knows this guy.
“With my house. I assume I missed the veil opening. I was asleep.”
“It did, yes. It just all happened recently.” And that was awful, to have just missed it.
“Yes, well, I can understand that. But my house disappeared, and I did not.”
“It was Myk’s family’s house for a long, long time…” And it was his now, and it was going to suck if he lost it.
That got him a faint smile. “Only part of it is mine…”
“Only Cosmo’s part! That’s not fair. We didn’t know!” Corbin stood at his shoulder.
Hawk studied him, those wild eyes so…cool. “I see.”
“We…let’s eat. It’s not like we’re going to make you stay outside. You need help.”
“I could use some, yes. But I have no intention of taking away your things or your home.”
“Well, then.” Cosmo held out his hand. “Welcome, friend dragon, I’m Cosmo. Let’s have some steak.”
Hawk took his hand, and it was as if lightning shot through him, electrifying his whole body. He gasped, and Hawk’s eyes widened.
“Yes,” Hawk said. “Let’s.”
Hawk’s mouth fell open when Cosmo touched him, because he’d never felt anything like it. It was…concentrated fire. It was prophecy come to life.
It was truth.
He wanted to keep touching Cosmo.
Cosmo gasped, staring at him. “Dragon. Dragon. Dragon. Dragon.”
“I—” He held onto Cosmo, his body shivering.
“Hey. Guys? Steak. What the heck?”
The lavender brother’s eyes went wide. “He’s having a vision, Cor!”
“No!” Cosmo shook his head. “I mean?—”
“Shh.” He stroked Cosmo’s hand with his thumb. “All is well. I promise.”
“Yes. You’re hungry. I should feed you. I need to feed you.”
“Please.” He beamed at Cosmo. “We should eat together, Rosie.”
“Strangeness…” Corbin sighed and shook his head. “So much strangeness.”
“No shit, Cor.” The other one handed out silverware, then dug into his meal.
He couldn’t stop staring at Cosmo.
Those eyes were sapphire and sparkling, dark and amazing. They were stunning and focused on him.
“After steak, perhaps you could show me your part of the house?” he asked. He wanted to see, but he also wanted to be alone with Cosmo. Badly.
“I think that’s a terrible idea,” Corbin put in.
