“Can you tie them in the front?” Nix questioned. “I…Can I touch him?”
“Yes, you can touch.” Evan sighed. “It’s been a very long time since he’s felt the touch of someone important to him.”
Nix nodded as the importance of this moment hit him. He was trusting the dragon side of Evan but the dragon was putting trust in Nix too.
“Come on.” Evan drew him out of the cave.
Nix held on tight to Evan’s side until they were well away from the cave, standing in an accessible area that must be big enough for a dragon.
Evan turned Nix to face him. “Trust that the dragon would never hurt you.”
“I’m not scared,” Nix said. And he wasn’t. Nix’s bounciness came from anticipation.
Pulling out a length of the blue rope that Nix now loved, Evan held it up for him to see. “Wrists, please.”
Nix offered Evan his wrists.
As his Daddy started to wrap the rope around Nix’s wrists, his cock hardened. It wasn’t his fault! He was feeling the cold now that he was away from the fire but rope equaled being under Evan’s control, which Nix needed. It wasn’t even a want any longer. Nix needed Evan’s dominance.
“Thank you, boy.” They kissed once he finished. Nix rocked forward, letting Evan feel his response to being tied up.
Evan grinned as he drew back. “You are amazing.” Before Nix could respond, Evan strolled to the end of the area, putting distance between them.
It was weird, preparing to see Evan’s other form and not having him undress. Evan stood by the ledge and winked then shimmered.
Nix tried not to even blink in case he missed something.
The wind picked up as a whirl of blue sparkles surrounded Evan until Nix couldn’t see his body through whatever, magic maybe, that covered him. In an instant, instead of the man that Nix was falling in love with, stood a massive light blue dragon.
The dragon blinked big shining gold eyes at him.
Nix’s breath caught. His dragon was beautiful. “Beautiful.” He had to voice the word.
His dragon lifted his head and Nix would swear that he was pushing out his huge chest, showing off his gorgeous reflective blue scales. White, what looked like sharp, spikes ran from the top of his head and down to the tip of his tail.
Nix jumped as the dragon released two massive wings that Nix had somehow overlooked. The wide wings were a paler blue than the dragon’s body and translucent against the sun.
His dragon flapped his wings before he took two clumsy steps and launched himself into the air.
“Holy shit!” Nix shouted.
Above him, his dragon circled then blew out a long bout of air. Not fire. His dragon did not blow fire. Nix shivered. Even from the ground where he watched, Nix could feel the coldness of his dragon’s breath.
The higher his dragon rose, the more Nix shivered. He kept his eyes on the sky until the clouds moved above and he could no longer see his dragon. Nix waited another several minutes until he turned, making his way to the cave.
Entering, Nix could feel the heat instantly.
He rushed forward, relieved by the warmth. Nix stood facing the cave entrance, not that he expected his dragon to just show up. There was no way that his dragon would fit through the small opening.
Waiting was killing him, but his dragon deserved to have the time being in his form and flying. It must be hard to be in his human form for such extended periods of time. Really, Nix andhis brothers were lucky. They were so small that Nix could shift anywhere.
In his small west Texas town, there hadn’t been other shifters.
They were able to keep their secrets until they’d been drafted onto their college team. Once they’d been announced by the university, their names and species had been released anonymously. It hadn’t mattered. Their mom had insisted that they tell their coach. She hadn’t been comfortable with any sort of threat that might come their way once they were away from her and their home.
All in all, everything had worked out.
Not everyone had been as lucky as them.
