Magma Reformed

Dragon- Mines

I follow the trail of the scent from my mate. Through my heated vision the path forms before me as a string that is easily followed. I focus on that like a lifeline as I run through the trees making my surrounding look as if they are of one color.

Suddenly the path changes and it causes me to stop in my tracks. The line of heat that I followed on the dirt road into the forest disappears as a brighter one forms. I race off in the direction knowing that this is a more recent scent track of my mate. As the line goes brighter new scents make their way to my nostrils.

I can now smell my Alpha and my brother Maximus. Along with their scent is the smell of the human woman that took my mate. I growl viciously at the anger her scent brings. As I approach the edge of the tree line and the scent of Igneous grows stronger, I slow my pace. If they intend to trap me then I want to have an idea of what I am getting myself into. To save my mate from their clutches I would kill them all if need be.

I watch from the tree line as they stand off to the side hidden. As I scan the area I see the form of my mate as he lies still on the grass. The amount of heat that surrounds him is enormous and I move to go to him, when the voice of my alpha stops me.

"We bring him to you freely, Magma. He has not come to harm. I must warn you though that the heat in him has become too much. He has not yet awakened from this slumber" he yells across the distance.

I slowly approach my mate as I repeatedly look around me to make sure that this is not a trap. My alpha and brother stand in front of the human woman who reeks of fear. First, I will save my mate and then I slay her for the pain she has caused me.

"Leave us" I growl in their direction. As I crouch down next to my mate. As I inhale his scent I feel the sense of calm that they have robbed me of for the past few days. I look at all the perspiration on his skin and feel the heat radiating from him. My heart pains to know that he is suffering. A movement in the forest causes me to rise from the floor ready to attack.

"Easy Dragon" My brother says from his position in the forest. "I am not here to get into your way. All I need to know is if Magma is still alive in there with you" he says questioning me.

I snarl at him as he steps forward and he stops his momentum. "The human is alive. I will let her free once I have claimed what belongs to me. I cannot do that with you here. Leave us!" I demand.

I watch as he sticks closely to the tree line until he makes it to the others. They all give a worried expression in my direction as they slowly start to back away. When I can no longer see them I kneel once more next to Igneous. I take the hand of this body and I smooth the hair away from his face making sure to bring his skin into contact with mine.

His body jerks from the ground as if he has been electrocuted at the touch. As I lay next to him, I hear the sounds of the walking in the forest seize even though I can still hear their heartbeats. "Farther" I scream. As the sounds of their steps get further away I lay my body against the side of my mate. I lay this face upon the skin of his chest and let the sound of his heart pound in my ears.

However, I hear that his heart beats too fast and I know I am running out of time. He must take my kiss so that he can come back to me. I place my lips on his hating the roughness of them from his mistreatment. I pause in my kiss listening to the sounds of the forest. After a few moments when I am sure I no longer hear the steps or hearts of the others

I resume moving my these lips against my mate.

I lift my head to the sky and roar flames out of Magmas mouth to the forest around us. As the fire crackles and blazes I let it build for a brief moment. I pull in all the flames that I can breathe in extinguishing them in a rush. I hold it in these lungs waiting for the fire to cool. I move my lips back to the lips of my mate. With them I pry his lips open and fill the gap in with my own. As my lips form his I begin to breathe the cooled fire that I have held in my lungs into his body giving him the kiss of a dragon.

His back bows away from the forest floor and I lay my hand a top his chest to hold him down as he takes my kiss. As I feel his body cool rapidly his lips start to move beneath my own. I breathe through my nose once the fire is gone and enjoy the kiss of my mate. When his arms move to grab me I quickly straddle him needing his touch, needing to be close. I twine my tongue with his as we begin to mate with our mouths. Needing more I grind against his flesh as it hardens between my legs.

At the motion, his hands move to the rear of this body pulling it closer so he can repeat the motion. I growl into the kiss loving the feel of him against me. He swiftly breaks the kiss meeting my eyes for the first time in days. His eyes widen at my dragon eyes, and he freezes below me. "Hello Mate" I greet him with this mouth.

"Magma?" He questions bewildered

"She is not here. When I have claimed you she may come back. I must mark you, so you belong to me." I inform him. At my words he grasp my arms holding me back as I lean my mouth toward his neck ready to seal my bite into his skin.

"I want to talk to Magma. Give her back to me!" He yells into this face.

"No, she is not stronger than me. I am in control." I yell as I move once more to reach his neck.

Suddenly the forest shifts and I feel as my mate and I roll on the ground. When the earth still he lies above me and has these arms pinned above the head. "No dragon, you will not mark me until I talk to Magma. You are not supposed to be in control. Bring her back or I will walk away" He screams into the face.

"You lie. You feel for her as you feel for me. It does not matter who is here when we mark you. Either way you will be ours" I say with hesitation as I smell the anger of my mate.

"I feel for both of you. I love the both of you. When you are in control it is only you. If I am to let you claim me as you say then you will share this with her" he says more gently. I contemplate his words as he stares into my eyes. This is the serious face of my mate I know, perhaps I should give him his way. I would rather have my mate choose to be with me than to force him. "Bring her back now, or I am leaving" he commands.

As I stare at him trying to find another way, he begins to move away. I hurry to grasp him in panic.

"Fine, I will bring her back. Please do not leave me" I say with defeat in the eyes of my mate. I close my eyes and reach into my mind to release Magma from the place I have hidden her.
