A Sacrifice To Save You

Ugly feeling called jealousy

Myra blinked while staring at Thorin's face where she could see the hurt twirling in his mind. But what he was really asking? What part did he mean when he asked why she hadn't told him? Reeling back just an inch Myra narrowed her eyes going through every possible reason why Thorin was acting like this?

"I'm not sure what you are asking of me?" she finally spoke, her voice tight trying to control the rising annoyance.

Scoffing Thorin stood up releasing her hands, his blue eyes nearly blazing, Thorin was getting angry but the reason was unknown to Myra and it infuriated her.

"Did you became his?" Thorin asked turning his back on Myra.

"Did I...." Myra was surprised her mind going blank for a moment before she could compose herself and realize what Thorin was really asking of her.

"Why would you want to know that?" she asked in return her eyes hard fixed upon Thorin's back. Myra's muscles were tensing up preparing for the fight she sensed was about to explode on her face.

Thorin turned sharply his hair whipped the air as he glared at Myra, now evidently angry.

"Did you??" he bellowed.

Inhaling sharply Myra's eyes went wide and then her pupils diminished into slits, quiet, low growl emerging from her chest as she stood up slowly. Her every move contained a warning.

"What you are asking isn't none of your business, Thorin Oakenshield," Myra snarled flashing her teeth glaring at him under her lashes.

"None of my business? You are my One, it is my right to know did you became his??" Thorin shouted his voice becoming deeper the angrier he became.

"Your right?" Myra laughed darkly tilting her head back.

"No," the word left her lips simply, lowly as she stared at Thorin who was fuming fisting his hands.

"What happened in my life all those years ago, isn't anyone's right, you forget, I am over 6500 years old. I had a life long before you were even born," Myra rumbled, her voice sounding alien as it was more of a dragon's voice rather than a human's.

"I don't have to explain to you what did I do or how did I live my life before you walked into the picture. I have mated more than once, in my lifetime but I'm not going into details, as, I say it again, isn't your business," Myra watched how Thorin's face grew darker, his eyes colder as he listened to her silently.

"I take that as a yes," Thorin growled his gaze piercing her, but she stood in front of him unwavering.

"Take it as you like, see if I care," Myra replied flatly her gaze growing distant and turning around she was about to make her way toward the door when she felt a tight grip on her upper arm.

"Don't you dare walk away from me!" Thorin barked his voice booming in the chamber. Myra jerked her head to stare at him furiously yanking her arm free from Thorin's hold.

"I dare to do a lot of things without your permission! In case you haven't noticed it yet! You don't get to order me around!" Myra yelled at his face her eyes shining like lightning bolts as anger got a hold of her.

"We are not done with this issue!! I forbid you to leave this chamber until we have had heart to heart!!" Thorin yelled back eyes dark and his jaw clenched. His whole body went rigid like he was getting ready for battle.

"Yes, we are! I am a dragon, I don't take orders from lesser beings!! You would do well to remember that dwarf!!"

The screams echoed around the room creating a cacophony of emotion.
