Armies of the Dragon (Book 2 after Warriors of the Dragon)

Walls

A/N Sexual content in this chapter. Don't bother reading this story if you don't like it, because I don't think this story is for you (no offense). Sex, violence, and dragons haha. Comment if you like that type of thing haha. If you don't, find a How to Train Your Dragon fanfic (There's tons of those).

Dawn ended her massage early since she felt the wetness of her panties grow cold and uncomfortable between her legs. She was tired from clenching her muscles from being uncomfortable at her nakedness and rushed to put her clothes back on. She frowned at the feel of the oil that covered her skin. It felt greasy underneath her clothes and she wondered if it would stain. It smelled floral, but she guessed it would still block her pores if she didn't take bath.

She was alarmed when Leuthil was missing from the other bed in the structure. She turned to the doorway just as Sorin appeared with dripping hair and she felt relieved to see him. He had changed back into his Duvendis pants and tunic, but was still barefoot and the tunic was loose, revealing the tattoos on his sternum and collar bones. She felt drawn to him in more ways than one.

"What's the matter? Where's Leuthil?" he asked urgently as he took her into his arms.

"I don't know." She whispered, feeling comfort in the feel of his hands on her even though it didn't make any sense that she would.

"Let's go check the garden." He murmured, letting go of her shoulders but taking her hand and leading her back to where the building opened to the garden. He led her down white, dimly lit halls and she was amazed at how fast and easily he seemed to navigate in the dark unfamiliar place. He stopped when they came to a group of nymphs and children and he released Dawn's hand at the sight of Luna and Nuka who were in the group and being led into the building. He could see Isolde being led toward the building by a male nymph and he pursed his lips as he wondered if he should stop that nymph. His eyes pierced into the garden and located his sister speaking with Hera while she drank wine with her eyes on her mate who stood with Markus and Rauka and some other men. He couldn't see the pool from his vantage point but guessed the naiads were still there because he saw Markus glance over like someone was still there and the nymphs' music had stopped.

"Do you see Leuthil?" Dawn whispered to Sorin where she stood close behind his shoulder.

"No..." He answered as Sephira seemed to sense his presence and her head whipped around to check on him. Hera followed Sephira's gaze and they exchanged a few serious words before bowing to each other. To his disappointment, it wasn't his sister that approached him, but the witch instead. He felt like Dawn had stepped behind him to hide from the witch and when he looked over his shoulder at her, he could see the discomfort on her pretty face as she still clutched one of the white towels from the massage table.

Hera told them Leuthil had retired to a guest bed chamber and then she offered to show Dawn hers. To Dawn's surprise and relief, Sorin volunteered to show Dawn to her bed chamber and Hera smiled in response, making Dawn uneasy. When she left them and the crowd had all disappeared into the building Sorin turned back to Dawn.

"Actually, do you mind showing me to a bath chamber?" she asked, carefully. He nodded with a glance out at his sister whose laugh was like a bell that they could barely hear. He started pulling her along at the quick pace that he did before. "Can you slow down?" she huffed as she struggled to keep up with him. He paused and she tensed as he turned back to look at her and she thought he might yell at her or something.

"Yes. I-I'm sorry." He said, quickly, his hand going up to his hair as if he was thinking about something else that he was worried about.
