“Who said that?” I asked the crowd.
“I did.” An older man stepped forward. And Lance was immediately in front of him.
“It’s okay, Lance. Let him through. He clearly has something to say,” I said. Lance moved aside, but followed the man as he walked over to me.
“Now, what seems to be the problem?” I asked him.
“Your kind will bring down the entire dragon kingdom,” he growled out. Freya growled, shaking the ground. The man’s face paled, and I noticed Lance was smirking.
“Sorry about that. My dragon doesn’t enjoy being disrespected. What’s your name?” I asked him.
“Jeremy,” he answered.
“Well Jeremy, I’m Ashlyn. Now, can you explain why you think that?” I asked him. Derek wrapped an arm around my hips, pulling me to his side.
“Hybrids will be the death of all of us.” Jeremy said, not answering my question. Maybe he didn’t know why he was so afraid.
“And who told you this?” I asked him.
“We have all heard the rumors. You killed the vampire king, and our king will be next.” He growled out.
“Prince Derek is my mate, the father of my child. What makes you think I would ever kill him?” I asked him. Jeremy shifted on his feet, clearly uncomfortable with my question.
“You don’t know, do you?” I asked him. He said nothing.
“I killed the vampire king because I had no choice. He was planning to steal my powers and take over the other kingdoms. I did what I had to do to stop him.” I told him, as he looked at the ground.
“You’re not the one planning to take over?” He asked.
“Nope, I just want to have a date with my mate without having to worry about being yelled at. I did what I had to do to protect my family, and any of you would have done the same. You’re just looking at it differently because I’m different. Yes, I’m a wolf witch. My brother is the king of the magic kingdom. My mates are both future kings of their kingdoms. Why would I need to take over?” I asked him.
“I don’t know,” he stuttered out.
“Don’t believe her lies.” Someone yelled out.
“Bring him to me.” Derek growled out, making Jeremy jump.
“Jeremy, do you have any further questions?” I asked him.
“No, my queen, I’m sorry I interrupted your date.” He said. I moved away from Derek and walked over to Jeremey.
“I’m not here to hurt anyone. Just like you, I want to live a peaceful life,” I told him. He looked at me and nodded.
“If you have any more questions, contact the dragon castle and they will direct you to me.” I told him.
“Sorry, again, my queen.” he said, bowing his head. Just as he went to walk away, another warrior dragged up a man. He glared at me before spitting in front of me.
“Fucken hybrid.” the man growled out. Derek stepped in front of me and punched the man in the stomach.
“Don’t you dare speak to my mate and your future queen,” Derek growled out as the man coughed. I pulled Derek back beside me, hitting him would not answer my questions.
“What’s your problem with hybrids?” I asked him. He sneered as he looked up at me, hunched over in pain from Derek’s blow.
“You’re an abomination,” he spit out. Before I could stop Freya, she stepped out of me. She grew to her full size before whipping around. The man paled and his mouth hung open as he looked up at Freya. The crowd that had gathered were all gasping and whispering.
“Say that again, tough guy.” Freya growled out. The man gulped, shaking in fear as Freya watched him.
“Freya, be nice.” I told my dragon.
“Tell me why you think that?” I asked the man again. He didn’t answer as he stared at my dragon behind me.
“I think that all of you have been believing the wrong people. The rumors are fueling your fears, but hybrids are nothing to fear. We are people, just like you. We are just trying to live our lives.” I yelled out.
“How the fuck can you say that? You literally have a dragon that could wipe out this entire kingdom.” the man said, finding his voice.
“Freya is here to protect me and my family. And all of you. If I wanted to take over, do you think I’d just be walking around the city?” I asked him, and he looked away from me. Ms. Evans walked over to us. The warriors must have let her through.
“You should be ashamed of yourself, Mr. Edwards. She is our future queen and the mother of our heir. You shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.” She scolded the man.
“If anyone has a problem with our future queen, you are no longer welcome in my bakery,” she yelled out.
“This young lady has done nothing to warrant this disrespect. And all of you would be wise to heed the ice dragon’s warning.” She continued.
“Ms. Evans, thank you.” I told her sincerely.
“There is no need to thank me, my dear. I know you will be a wonderful queen and mate to our prince.” She told me.
“If no one else has a problem with my queen, then move along.” Derek yelled out.
“If anyone has any concerns, I would like to hear them,” I called out. Derek gave me a pointed look, and I returned it.
“I want to earn their trust,” I told him and he sighed.
“Date over then?” He asked me. Just then, pain hit me through the bond, causing me to whimper as I grabbed at my mark.
“Something’s wrong.” I rushed out, panting as my panic reached a new level.
“Fire at the castle,” Lance called out. I turned to see smoke rising high in the sky.
“Freya,” I yelled out. She dropped her head, and I climbed on. She took off towards the castle. My heart and stomach were in knots as we flew up to the castle. I tried to reach out to Mason, but he wasn’t answering.
Magnus was behind me. As he arrived at the castle, our wing was on fire and the flames burned hot as Freya approached the fire. She blew out her icy breath and the fire instantly went out, freezing half the castle. I scanned the ground to find Mason and our son. It was chaos on the ground and I couldn’t make anyone out.
“Freye, find Mason.” I yelled at her.
Ashlyn
I spotted Derek holding James from the air. He was standing by an ambulance with Victor.
“Down!” I yelled at Freya. She landed as close as she could to the ambulance. I jumped off of her back before she hit the ground and took off running towards the ambulance.
“Where’s Mason?” I screamed.
“Take James and I’ll find him, babygirl.” Derek rushed out, and I knew he was also panicking.
As soon as I took James, my body glowed white. I instantly healed him. He didn’t look like he had been burnt, but he could have had lung damage from the smoke.
“Derek, I need you to find him.” I rushed out, tears filling my eyes as I looked up at my mate.
