“Show me all the magic you have, Daisy.”
“Can’t you sense them and lay it out for me since you’re the master?”
“I want you to sort them out, Daisy. Do the inventory yourself.”
He wasn’t a very nice mentor.
“I could phase when I was in my Fury form. I can no longer do it after I returned to my dragon form. Phasing would come in handy if I still possessed the power.”
“Focus on what you have,” he said.
“I can always sense and trace magic. I can see through glamour, which you already know since I shattered your charm in the great hall you took me to.”
A smile ghosted his lips. “You did, didn’t you? And I thought I finally had you all for myself.”
My heart stuttered.
“Did you like the dance?” he asked softly.
My skin burned hot.
“Did you bring me here to flirt with me or to teach me?”
“Why can’t we do both, Daisy darling? It’ll make the magical lesson easier and more interesting.”
“I’m not afraid of a hard lesson, and I can take boring anytime.”
He arched an eyebrow, knowing exactly how sexy he looked by doing just that. I tried not to lick my lips.
“What else have you got, my darling?”
“As a dragon, I have fire at my command, of course.”
“Of course, and so you’ll practice merging your dragon magic into your Fae magic.”
“How?”
He smirked. “That’s why I’m here.”
Oh, that killer smile!
I should not get distracted. What I’d learn might decide if I could finally take down Lysandra. Elvey could multitask, but I had never been good at that. I was more of a one channel, one-step-at-a-time kind of girl.
I hesitated for a second, then blurted out another secret. “I have bonding magic from the Fae side.”
He looked at me with increased interest. “What does it do?”
“I once used it to bond the beasts and monsters to me when I lived in the jungle on Pandemonium. If I concentrate hard, I can also slip into the minds of my bonded subjects and see what they see. I don’t like doing that much since it always gives me pounding headaches afterwards.”
“Magic comes with a price. Pain and euphoria go hand in hand when you use powerful magic,” he said. “The bonding magic is your Fae royal heritage. Tianna has it as well, but she mixes it with dark magic and uses it to control minds. You, on the contrary, draw hearts with your compassion. When you face her eventually, she’ll try to bind you. And once you’re hers, all will be lost. You can never allow her to slip into your mind and control you. You need to be stronger than her, and the only way you can push her back is to surround yourself with your White Light. Even if Arianrhod reconnects you to the realm and gives you the land’s power, it won’t be enough to fight Tianna in her territory. Yes, Sihde Realm is yours by all your birthright, but you’ll need to earn it back before you can have the realm’s loyalty. It’ll give you a chance because of your bloodline. Sihde is withering and has been corrupted for centuries. It’s crying out to you even when you aren’t available. But even so, it won’t devote to you before you prove your worthiness. Just as you need to reclaim the Dragon Realm.”
I eyed him. “You always deliver light news, don’t you?”
“I’m the rainbow,” he said, a glint in his eyes. “And you’re my firestorm. You’re one of a kind, Daisy Danaenyth. You’re the only hybrid of Fae and dragon. A forbidden power dwells in you. When you were cursed, you couldn’t access that power, but now you can. Call it to you, like you own it. From now on, you’ll live and breathe your magic any second of the day instead of having any sexy time. We won’t have much time when the enemies beat down our door.”
My breath caught, and my face flamed.
I was wondering what Elvey really thought of my sexy time with my dragon princes. I hadn’t seen him being overly jealous, unlike my mates. But now he wanted my celibacy? Hadn’t he known how impossible it was to do that since I was mated, and the mating fever hadn’t taken it easy on my mates and me?
