Dragon Bound Lover

Damien knows about mythical beings and the bonds that they form with humans in order to grant them vast powers and unimaginable riches, but it is not something that he is interested in getting involved with… until his father shows up at his office and divulges the reason behind their family's success.

As much as he wishes to feign ignorance, the knowledge is not something that comes freely. The dragon who their family owes their success to has been hibernating for the past few centuries, but she has awoken due to the fact that her mate has reincarnated into the world. The shaman claims his brother to be that very reincarnation, but since he has rejected meeting with the dragon, Damien is to take his place. Failure to convince her that he is the reincarnation of her mate will doom their legacy.

He agrees to meeting the dragon out of curiosity, but soon finds himself completely enraptured by the captivating woman who puts him at her mercy every step of the way. She has no memories of her past lover and tells him to leave. He's not sure what possessed him to reject the opportunity to wash his hands off this mess and instead counteroffer to move in with her in hopes that her memory would return. Damien prides himself in making good business deals, so this lose-lose situation makes no sense at all.

Has she placed him under some sort of spell or has he simply lost his mind?

The only thing he is certain about is that when this whole charade falls apart, there will be hell to pay…

But for the chance to spend just another moment with her, it’s all worth it.

“I let him into the house because you need him,” he answered firmly, surprising her with his sincerity.

Fox had been behaving weirdly ever since she awoke. He used to be quieter and more skittish, unsure of himself. Perhaps he hadn't been certain of how to act human before this, but he had been human for so long now— much longer than he had been a fox, really — that he had grown used to it. He was certainly more experienced at being human than she was. t

“I don't need anyone, least of all a human who claims to be the reincarnation of my mate,” she argued, turning from him haughtily.

He pinched her chin between his forefinger and thumb, nails sharp as claws as they dug into her skin. When had he gotten so close? She didn't remember him being this intense before. “You need to feed,” he said, leaning forward like he intended to press their lips together. It took a moment for her to realize that it was exactly what he intended to do. He was offering to feed her himself.

“Impudent!” she snarled, slapping his hand away, but at her weakened state, even a fox who had been granted her blessing was stronger than her.

“I feel your hunger as if it was my own. If you don't feed from him, then feed from me,” he said, his fingers exerting enough pressure on her cheeks that her lips grew puckered and he leaned down to kiss her, tongue pressing into her mouth to taste her.

Her back abruptly hit wall behind her and there was a tongue in her mouth, forcing her lips apart and ravaging its way against her own with a startling wet sound, dragging against the roof of her mouth teasingly as it went out, its owner greedily starting to bite and pull her lower lip instead.

Her wrists had been pushed up against the rough texture of the wall, caught in large powerful hands, the back of her head audibly thudding against it.

A high noise escaped her throat, dangerously verging into whining territory, making her sound embarrassingly wanton and she felt her flush spreading to her neck, anger evaporating into confused mist.

He pulled his face away abruptly, panting as if he had run a thousand miles, eyes raving over her features as if searching for something.
