After filling my plate, I sat down at the closest table, joining some others from the coven. They looked oddly scared as I dug into my food.
I moaned in appreciation. "Damn, this is good."
Kris sat at the table as the others who were there gathered their plates and quickly left. I looked at Kris, shrugged, and got back down to the business of easing my hunger. I vaguely heard Master Stephen and Semais as they approached the table.
"Yes, I believe it's safe as long as you sit at the far end," I heard Kris say with a laugh.
Cautious faces appeared as the two sat and joined us at the table. Basil appeared even more tentative in his approach. Now that the initial hunger was gone, I felt bad. I gave him a shy smile. "Sorry about throwing you. I was hungry," I explained.
"It's okay. I should have known better. You had the same look that you get when you’re on a mission and nothing is going to take away your focus." He nodded his acceptance.
"Did you find a place?" Semais asked.
"Yes, after seeing every cabin in a 20 mile radius, their majesties finally found a place," Devin grumbled.
"Come on! Don't be such a downer! That place is awesome! My dragon can't wait to move in. All the free space to shift and fly!" Roarke replied.
Devin looked even more sour than before. I think he just realized it wouldn't only be me that would leave the coven.
"Yes, it's perfect. I really think it will be good for us, and it's not that far out of coven territory, so we can visit and you all can visit all the time," I said quickly to ease the blow.
"Speaking of shifting and flying, you and I have another date tonight," I said, smiling at Kris and changing the subject of moving.
"Yes, we sure do. After we finish here. It should be dark enough not to cause panic," he replied.
"Wait, you're shifting?" Master Stephen asked.
"Yes, I haven’t let my dragon loose in a while, and Ben has yet to see him."
"Do you mind if we join you? I haven’t seen a dragon before," he asked.
"Oh, do you mind if I join you too? I haven't shifted and flown for a while either," Roarke cut in.
Kris looked at me in a question, leaving the decision up to me if I wanted the company. I nodded my approval. However, I kind of wanted my first time seeing his dragon to be ours alone.
"It will be all right with me. Perhaps you could join us a short time after I shift; that way Ben and I can get properly acquainted first," Kris said as if reading my thoughts.
They all nodded their acceptance, and we continued our meal and talk.
After dinner, Kris and I made our way to the garden rooftop. It had a beautiful view of the city. Kris stepped away from me and started stripping off his clothes. I forgot the city; I had a better view to watch. I felt my dick stir and thicken after each article of clothing was removed. He was truly beautiful. I heard a growl.
"You keep looking at me like that, and you won’t be seeing my dragon," he said with lust-filled eyes.
"Later," he whispered, then took another step back.
Then, before my eyes, a large, golden light surrounded him, until it enveloped him, and I could no longer see him except for the light. Suddenly, a massive dragon stood in his place. He was at least fifteen feet tall and about twenty feet long from head to tail. He had a large muscular body and stood on powerful giant claws. Beautiful golden scales covered his entire body. Two large gold horns jutted from his head. He stood up on his back legs and expanded his two humongous wings that were almost the length of his body. My beloved's dragon was stunning. He settled down and brought his huge head low.
"You can touch me, my Cardia," his dragon voice rumbled.
"Wow! You can talk in your shifted form. Incredible!"
I took a step forward, placing my hands on his enormous jaw. His skin was rough, and while it looked gold, on inspection there were several colors that made up his scales.
"You’re stunning," I whispered, verbalizing my initial thoughts. I continued my exploration. I ran my hand over one of his large horns, and he rumbled in approval. They were smooth, a contrast to his rough scales.
"Oh. My. God."
"Beautiful!"
