“We need your help,” she said. I noticed I could hear her in my mind. Her mouth wasn’t moving. She also wasn’t huge, maybe a quarter of the size of Magnus.
“What’s your name? And do you have a human?” I asked her.
“My name is Freya and I don’t have a human side,” she said. I immediately thought of the girl in the depiction.
“You were with a witch?” I asked her, and she nodded.
“She betrayed us.”
“That’s why the hybrids ran?” I asked her, and she nodded.
“What happened?” I asked Freya. I was no longer worried about being in the water. Finding I could breathe underwater. It must be Freya’s magic.
“This is the trap that she tricked us into. I killed her before she could escape.” She explained.
“Wait, you’ve been here for the last 300 years?” I asked her, stunned.
“At first, we lived in peace. Others found their mates or took a chosen one. Babies were born, and it was our own little hybrid world. But now the magic is dying. And without new bloodlines, the mates stopped. We are on the brink of extinction.” She explained.
“How did you live without your other half for so long?” I asked her.
“The same way you live without Tundra. Dragons naturally live long lives.” She told me.
“How do you know about Tundra?”
“She was also a part of the Great War. She, too, belonged to a witch wolf. But she was always white until you.”
“She ended up being gold. Why?” I asked.
“Gold is a sign of the goddess. She and her witch sacrificed themselves for us.” she told me as the water shocked around us.
“Is that you?” I asked her, my anxiety rising.
“The magic is unstable. We have been feeling these tremors for a long time now,” Freya answered.
“Then let’s get out of here. I have Gabby getting the others. I can get you all out of here.”
“None of them will be accepted.”
“They will because I will protect all of you. I know you know I’m a witch wolf hybrid and I will let nothing happen to any of you. But we need to leave. My mates are waiting for me and I know it’s been longer than ten minutes,” I told her.
Without another word, she swam away from me. I still couldn’t move. Trapped in her magic.
“Wait, where are you going?” I yelled out. Before I knew what was happening, she swam at full speed at me. Screaming out, I was stunned until I noticed I was sinking again. Finding I could finally move my body, I swam to the surface with more power than I ever had before.
Breaking the surface, I took a deep breath before looking around. Gabby was standing on the edge of the dock, and I could see the others standing on the shore behind her.
“Freya, where are you?” I called out.
“I’m here.” She answered in my mind.
“Where?” I called out, looking around, frantic.
My body burned and my head felt like it was about to explode. When the pain became too much, I let out a scream. My bones cracked and broke in ways I never knew were possible. Shifting into Tundra never hurt like this.
“Just relax. Your body is reforming to mine.” Freya said in my mind.
“I don’t understand, how?” I screamed out. She didn’t answer as my head fell below the surface of the water. I sank as my limbs felt foreign to me.
I felt like I was dying as my body hit the bottom of the lake. Closing my eyes, I thought about my mate and our son. How the hell could I have let this happen again?
“Ashlyn, you’re not dying. Open your eyes.” Freya said. Doing as she asked, I opened my eyes to find I could now see clearly under the water. I was moving through the water, but I wasn’t moving my body.
My body broke the surface of the lake. It wasn’t until I looked into my reflection in the water did I see I was no longer in my human body but in Freya’s body. She was now a massive Opal white dragon, hovering above the lake.
“How?” I asked her.
“You have dragon blood running through you from your mate. There’s no one here left with dragon blood. I hope you don’t mind? Not just anyone can handle being paired with a white dragon.” She explained.
“I’m just stunned. This is amazing.” I told her in awe, looking through her eyes. It was like looking through Tundra’s eyes again. Everything was sharper, brighter. I felt complete again.
Freya flew over to the shore where the others were and, before she landed on the ground, she shifted back. So I was now standing in front of 9 strangers. Gabby was running down the dock with my backpack.
“Ashlyn.” She screamed out. I probably should have brought clothes, I thought as I stood there awkwardly.
“I can help with that,” Freya said. Before I could ask her what she meant, a blue light consumed me. Once it faded, I was standing in a crystal white floor-length dress. The sleeves were transparent lace, creating a swooping neck collar. The dress shimmered like an Opal, changing colors as I moved.
Everyone gasped and Gabby stopped in her tracks. They were all staring at me while the ground shook again, but this time it was stronger than before, almost knocking me over.
“I will explain, but first we need to leave.” I rushed out. Gabby walked over to me and grabbed one of my hands with hers.
“I trust you.” She said, and I squeezed her hand, holding mine.
“Where do we go?” One man asked.
“Follow me. I know you’re scared, but I will let nothing happen to any of you. I’m also a hybrid. The Alpha Prince and Dragon Prince are my mates, and we have a son.” I told them quickly.
“We trust you, my Queen.” The same man spoke.
“It’s Ashlyn. Stay close, we have little time.” I told them, before turning on my heels and moving quickly back towards the hallway that led me here.
It didn’t take us long to make it to the exit. I felt so much stronger now than having Freya. Instantly I felt guilty. I missed Tundra, and I felt like I was cheating on my wolf. Pushing my guilt aside, I focused on what needed to be done.
“My queen, we can’t go in there.” Gabby told me, scared. She moved to stand behind me.
“Gabby, I will protect you. This is the way I came in, and we have to leave.” I told her, kneeling down. She stared at me with tears in her eyes until she finally nodded.
“I’ll go first. Everyone follow and stay close,” I told them. Turning, still holding Gabby’s hand, I entered the hallway.
I ran my fingers down the wall, illuminating the hallway. I could hear gasps coming from behind me as I made my way further down the hallway. It didn’t take us long before I could see my mates waiting by the blocked exit.
“Mason, Derek.” I called to them.
“Ashlyn. That was longer than 10 minutes.” Mason breathed out. I could feel their relief through the bond.
“Are you okay, Babygirl?” Derek asked me. I reached my hand out to walk through the magic, to find that I couldn’t walk back through.
“I’m okay, but now I need to get through this magic. I need both of you to step back,” I told them. The hallway shook violently, and it threw me into the wall beside me. The walls crumbled further down the hallway where we had just come from.
