Teaser from #3 of the Dragons of San DeLain
Rage surged through Kit’s veins as a wild, animalistic fury filled him. He caught his breath in shock. Hudson, and that was definitely Hudson’s feelings, was consumed by an intense and deadly anger that radiated from him like a scorching fire that promised to unleash chaos and destruction.
“Holy shit, what just happened?” Kit muttered to
himself, because he was positive he’d never felt such anger from Hudson.
A wave of reassurance washed over Kit through the
bond, emanating from Connie like a warm embrace. However, it was quickly
followed by Hudson’s intense anger. Kit couldn’t be sure if the reassurance was
directed towards him, but he assumed it was.
Hudson oddly enough seemed… almost disconnected? That
really didn’t describe the feeling he got from Hudson. The bond was still
there, and Hudson hadn’t shut it down, but it was almost as if whatever
feelings coming through were almost… secondary?
Like they were Hudson’s but not Hudson’s. Which made
absolutely no sense, because of course it was Hudson… unless what Kit was
feeling was actually from the dragon.
Suddenly possessiveness flared along the lines of the
bond, along with a primitive feeling of… devotion? Commitment? Dedication?
Along with covetousness, cravings, eagerness, and greediness. It glimmered and
pulsed with each emotion that passed through it.
The possessiveness was visible as the bond tightened
and constricted, while devotion and commitment were shown through its steady,
unwavering glow. The bond also revealed eagerness and greediness, flickering in
anticipation of what was to come.
And at the center of it all was love, radiating with a
brilliant brightness that seemed to envelop everything around it. Kit looked
on, breathless, as he witnessed the power of this love connecting them.
Love?
Kit gulped.
It was a love so pure and all-consuming, it was almost
blinding to behold. The three of them had been dancing around with that for a
while now, but there was no denying what he was feeling was from Hudson’s
dragon. Eternal love—something so big and so vast, Kit could barely wrap his
human mind around it.
The bond between them pulsed with love and
understanding, like two puzzle pieces finally fitting together perfectly.
Wonder flowed along the bond too from Connie, along
with much of the same feelings he was picking up from Hudson. Wonder and joy,
plus warmth. Yup, that was his Connie. Although Connie’s feelings didn’t seem
to be quite so primal, so maybe Connie was still in his human form.
