I thought divine omegas were a myth...until I met him. Dragons are on the verge of extinction and if we don’t find the divine omegas we’re doomed. In 300 years I’ve never come across one.

But if that’s true, why does he kiss me like me means it?

Ace will protect my body...but if he gets too close, I’m afraid he’ll steal my heart. No dragon ever treated me so kindly, and no man ever lit me up inside like he does.

But I’m still not sure why I’m in such demand.
