brilliant green gems there and two flashing blue gems at
    the lobe of her ear. He really liked that flashy jewelry. In fact, he wouldn’t mind if all
    she wore was that, a few necklaces and bracelets and maybe a waist chain.
    “Well I do have to get back to what I was doing. Can we get this over with?” She
    looked back over her shoulder at them.
    He could see the tension in her jaw. She wasn’t happy and, from her attitude, just
    wanted to get this finished. She was so focused that he didn’t know if she’d seen them
    as anything other than an annoyance. He definitely wanted to change that. Some lust or
    just awareness that they were men who found her attractive would be a start.

Chapter Four
    Meagan walked in front of the dragon and just behind what she suspected was a
    vampire, although she supposed he could be a wizard. Regardless they were persistent
    and a huge nuisance. And gorgeous, she’d definitely noticed that.
    The dragon couldn’t be missed even if she’d failed to spot the gem at his ear. Those
    dark blue streaks really stood out against his golden hair. His deep brown eyes hadn’t
    seemed to blink while he was watching her. She couldn’t mistake the tall, muscled man
    for anything other than what he was—a predator. Even though he’d never raised his
    voice or made an overtly threatening move, she knew he was dangerous. Maybe not
    violent or dangerous to her, but he did seem determined to cause chaos in her life. The
    choice of dressing in all black didn’t help alleviate that dark aura. He couldn’t have
    drawn more attention to himself if he’d tried, but she had a feeling that he didn’t care
    what anyone thought of him.
    The other man was a completely different matter. He might have been as muscled
    and nearly as tall as the dragon, but he looked more as if he should be on some ruling
    council somewhere even with his white shirt and black pants more suited to everyday
    wear. He had an aristocratic air and an aura of quiet power that was only emphasized
    by his high cheekbones and his golden eyes. She had an almost irresistible urge to reach
    out and touch his long silver-blond hair, just to see if it was real. She’d never seen
    anyone with hair like that. The light brown tan of his skin did make him seem a little
    more real, but he still didn’t seem like he belonged in the middle of a battle.
    They led her out of the sect house and to one of few inns in the village. She made no
    attempt to talk to them on the way there. They’d been the ones who insisted that this
    had to be done now. Their persistence didn’t make any sense to her. The fact that she
    was a Tiria wasn’t going to change in the next few days. They were in such a rush that
    they hadn’t even introduced themselves. Of course, she hadn’t exactly told them her
    name. They’d heard it, but she did didn’t know if they’d realized it was her name.
    The stone building of the inn looked better than it had earlier. It still had a small
    hole in one side of the wall, but that was being repaired now. She walked up the steps
    to the inn. The silver-haired man opened the door and waited for her to enter. She
    shook her head. They both acted as if she were going to run away if one of them didn’t
    have her in his sight at all times. She just didn’t understand it. There couldn’t be
    anything that bad about being a Tiria . As long as it wasn’t fatal, she wasn’t going to
    worry about it.
    The dragon went to the innkeeper to get a room while the silver-haired man waited
    with her. She looked at the man then around the empty large dining room.
    “Why can’t we talk here? There’s no one here.” She looked up at the man.

    “The innkeeper’s here and we’re going to need the privacy of a room.” The silver-
    haired man smiled. “I’m Jaeson Ro’Shan. He’s Samiel. And you’re called Meagan?”
    “Meagan Danae.” She nodded returning his smile. She’d bet he had women
