Chosen By The Dragon Kings novel Chapter 92

Elora’s POV

I wake with a jump when I realise who is in the room, my worst nightmare coming true, he was here to take my baby. His hand moves over my bump and I jump, the muscles in my belly stretching from moving so quickly as I sit up in my bed against the headboard. My heart pounding in my chest so hard I could hear it.

“Calm down, I’m sorry I didn’t mean to startle you” He says grabbing my arms while I frantically looked around praying Dragus would come back. I move away from his touch ignoring the sparks moving over my skin from the mate bond. The movement cost me my stomach contents as I scramble trying to get off the bed but being so round and being tangled in the blankets, made my stomach contents spew onto the blanket before I could even make it off the bed. My face heating with embarrassment as I cover not only the bed and myself but also Silas from being so close.

“Sorry” I blurt before rushing to the bathroom as I feel more coming up, only just making the toilet in time. I flush the toilet before washing my mouth out with water and wetting my face trying to cool down.

“Dragus said you were sick he wasn’t joking” I roll my eyes at his comment. Looking down at my shirt and pants I am covered in it. Walking into the room, I find Silas shirtless and the bed stripped as he rolls the blankets up before walking to the door and placing them in the hall. He turns around before stopping looking down at my shirt, he steps forward about to peel it off me when I step back.

“I’m just trying to help Lora”

“Want to help, then leave” I tell him turning away from him and moving to my drawers in search of another shirt.

“Dragus will be here soon” He says.

“Then leave, I don’t need you here Silas get out”

“I am not leaving; I will wait for Dragus to return then I will go” He says.

I grab some clothes before walking into the bathroom. He follows and I turn on him again when he tries touching me.

“Out now” I warn him, but he doesn’t listen, completely ignoring my request.

“Just let me help you, I am not going to do anything to you geez” He says reaching for my shirt again. I slap his hands way when he steps closer.

“Dragus!” I scream panic consuming me as I begin to feel caged in this small bathroom, my lungs restricting from feeling suddenly claustrophobic.

“It’s fine Lora calm”- He says reaching for me when I slap him. My own anger getting the better of me, my hand connecting with the side of his face with an audible flesh on flesh sound. My hands shaking when I realise what I had done as his head snaps to the side from the force. His jaw clenches and unclenches.

“I’m sorry, just don’t be grabbing and touching me like that” I stammer out as his eyes start flickering before he closes them, his chest rising and falling rapidly and my blood runs cold. Panic hitting me when I realise Dragus must not be in the castle because he would have smashed the door down by now.

He rubs his cheek his eyes opening. He reaches his hands towards and I put mine which were trembling horrifically up ready to defend myself from him, stepping back. When he grabs them.

“Just let me help” I look to the door willing one of them to come in, surely the could feel me by now.

“I won’t hurt you” He says making my eyes dart back to him, his thumb rubbing my palms as he grips my shaking hands. He steps closer his hands rung down my arms to my shirt before he pulls it up and over my head, his eyes going to my bump for second before he reaches behind me turning the shower on making me flinch away from him. He adjusts the taps before leaning back away from me. He reaches for the waistband of my pants.

“I can undress myself” I tell him, and he steps away putting his hands up in surrender.

“I will wait out there for you to hop out” He says turning away before walking into the bedroom. I hear the bedroom door fly open smashing into the wall before seeing Matitus grab Silas slamming him into the wall pinning him. Dragus racing into the bathroom nearly running straight into me as I go dart out.

“I didn’t touch her” Silas says his hands up. Matitus growls his eyes looking for me.

“Wait he didn’t do anything” I tell Matitus, he lets him go and Dragus grabs me.

“I’m sorry I shouldn’t have left” he says.

“She threw up, that’s it” Silas says looking at me along with Matitus. I give a nod and Matitus lets out a breath.

“It’s fine I will go, I promised to help Peter anyway” He says walking out.

Dragus lets me go and I walk into the bathroom stripping my pants before hopping in the shower.

Silas POV

I just wanted to help her, why can’t she see that? I never meant her any harm even after she slapped me. I shouldn’t have been so handsy, yet the disappointment that flooded me when my mates ran in assuming I was attacking her, hurt the most. They really think that little of me to hurt her again especially while she is this far along carrying our child.

Walking out, I go to the stables the storm raging outside as I see him trying to shut the stable doors which had blown open with Pluto. The wind moving so quickly it was bending the trees, leaves and debris flying everywhere, as the storm picked up in intensity.

Shutting the doors. I step inside. “Storm came out of no where was fine a few minutes ago” Pluto says. The horses all spooked in their stalls.

“You can stay in the castle tonight Pluto, where is your brother?” I ask him.

“Out in that” He says worriedly.

“I will have a room set up for you both, what needs doing?” I tell them and he nods.

“Nothing now Pluto and I got it all sorted”

“Sorry I was a little distracted” I tell them.

“Well I am going to head home” Peter says.

“Not in that you’re not. Come, you can stay in the castle tonight” I tell him.

“No, it’s fine Silas it’s not that far” I shake my head.

“No, you’re staying you will blow away in the wind out there you’re too scrawny” I tell him. Pluto chuckles as Peter looks down at himself before sighing.

“Fine, I will tell Abbie” He says walking toward the back of the stables.

“Abbie is here?” I ask following after him.

“Yeah, her and Claire ducked in here when the rain started to come down on their way back from the greenhouses, they are near the fire heater up the back” He says. Following him, I find Abbie sitting on a chair, Claire on her lap trying to warm up around the fire.

“Have you seen Dakari?” She asks looking up as we turn around the corner.

“He was at the orphanage, he will be back soon” I tell her. She nods looking back at the flames. Claire looking over her shoulder at me, watching me in that weird eerie way she does sometimes.

“Come on it is freezing out here, come inside” I tell her.
