Iokul and Rai crossed their muscled arms over their chest, remaining silent to let Blaze and I work it out.

Blaze sighed. “Fine, let’s investigate first.”

I smiled at him.

We returned to our cloaked ship soon after, not wanting anyone to know I’d returned, though it might be too late for that since our enemy already knew I was here.

Jarrod came with us, and we made a plan to visit the City of Amethyst.

I needed to find out what my people wanted and learn more about this new consort.

“We can’t just all barge into the human’s city,” I said. “We’ll bring too much unwanted attention.”

“Not all of us,” Blaze said. “Just the three of us. Of course, Jarrod will be our guide, so you will have four escorts.”

I eyed my mates. All of them were striking, even with their masks. “If all three of you go with me, all the ladies’ eyes will be upon you.”

They grinned at my flattery.

“But we don’t want that,” I added.

They frowned in unison.

I could use glamour to disguise us, but my instincts warned me against it. The human cities were uncharted territory to us. My enemies’ spies could be everywhere, or the cities could be in my enemies’ iron claws.

“We can stay inconspicuous,” Blaze said.

“Impossible,” Jarrod said, staring at his mask, but he had the good sense not to point it out. “You are giants of men, compared to the humans. One giant man can probably get by, but three of you?”

“Then I should be the only one to accompany Daisy,” Iokul said. “Spying is my specialty. My ice magic can shield me and make me unnoticeable. I guarantee you that no one will pay any attention to my mask.”

“Then you can use your ice magic to cover us all,” Blaze said.

“That’ll be too much work on my side,” Iokul said. “My purpose should be to help our mate get the information she needs, not focusing on shielding the two of you.”

Blaze glared at Iokul, who smirked at him.

Rai intervened before the two of them could snipe at each other. In the end, we decided to divide into several teams and enter all six cities. We needed to know if all the humans were supporting the consort and to what degree.

Since the consort had taken residence in the tallest skyscraper in the City of Amethyst, that would be our main focus. Jarrod would get Rai into an upper-class costume party tonight, and Iokul and I would attend a grand event with the theme of Humans Superior and First, hosted by the human liberals.

Blaze would stay in the ship with the backup team and watch over the Dragon Realm.

“Why must I always stay in the base?” Blaze growled.

“I stayed in the base last time,” Iokul said.

“You were sleeping!”

“Maybe you deserve a punishment?” Iokul offered.

“For what?” Blaze snarled at his brother but gave me a wary glance.

“For being rude,” Iokul said coldly.

“Don’t goad him, Iokul,” Rai warned. “Blaze is frustrated already, and you’ve secured the spot beside Daisy. Stop kicking the dog when he’s down.”

“I can go to the costume party with Rai,” Blaze said. “I don’t even need to get a mask.”
