Free Summer of Frost by L.P. Dover Page B

to feel like he failed when the
dark sorcerer took Calista and Meliantha’s power.
    “Let’s hope so,” I agreed. “What do we do
now?” I asked, turning to Drake.
    He returned my gaze and stared at nothing
except me for a few seconds, but then looked across the room at the
warriors. “We need to leave now while it’s still dark. That way
I’ll be concealed when I fly overhead to scout out the army. I want
you to divide into two groups and come at them from different areas
while I come in from the sky. Do you all understand?” he commanded,
his voice booming across the room.
    “Aye!” the warriors agreed in unison.
    “Then let’s go!”
    At Drake’s dismissal everyone dispersed,
including me. Swiftly, I turned around and raced out of the throne
room and the palace doors.
    “Sorcha!” Drake yelled.
    My steps faltered for a moment, but I kept
walking. There were too many people around, and I didn’t want to
discuss anything with him while the warriors were there to witness
it. Not to mention what would happen if he touched me.
    “Sorcha, stop!”
    Before I could make it to the secluded
garden on the other side of the palace, I was taken by the arm by
Drake’s warm, solid grasp. That touch was all it took.
    The Vision
    The sound of waves crashing around me brings
comfort to my ears as I swim along in the crystal blue depths of my
sea … the Summer Sea. The Land of the Fae has
changed—grown—bringing a whole new Summer Court. I have never
understood the magic of the land, except all I know is that it
gifted us with a whole new life … a whole new land. We’re separate
from the original Summer Court, but we’re still one and the same.
However, this part belongs to me and Drake.
    The water feels cool against my heated skin,
except when I see the smoky gray eyes of the man before me, the
water quickly heats up. I could feel the current of it around me
pulling him closer, as if it knew that’s where he belonged … in my
arms. When Drake grasps me against his naked body, he takes my face
in his hands and wastes no time in claiming me as his own. The sea
churns and moves frantically around us as Drake kisses me hungrily,
feverishly. His lips taste salty from the water, but underneath
that is the pure and exotic taste of the Summer. It’s addicting. He
is addicting.
    The sea appears to know our needs and wants,
and is obviously reflecting our moods. Right now the water is wild
and dangerous, flowing excitedly around us, caressing our bodies.
Our passions are fierce and full of heat, just like the sea. I can
see the fire burning in Drake’s eyes, and it makes my blood boil.
Wrapping my legs around his waist, he gently strokes my opening
with the head of his cock before plunging in deeply with one hard
thrust. I scream out in pleasure as he rocks my body against the
waves. Before, I never welcomed the heat, but now I live in it …
and I love it. This is my home, and this is where I belong.

 

     
    The moment I was thrust out of the vision
everything became clear. Sorcha swayed on her feet, but I caught
her, earning me a dazed smile in return. “Of all the days for this
to happen, it had to be on one where we’re going into battle,” she
said sarcastically.
    I laughed. “You should know things are never
easy here, especially when you’re one of the Four. Take my sisters
for example.”
    “Yeah, I guess you’re right,” she
agreed.
    Sorcha lowered her head and stared at the
ground nervously, a trait I’d never seen from her before. There
were so many questions floating through my mind and I didn’t know
where to start. “So, are you going to tell me everything now?” I
asked, trying hard to hide my desperation.
    With a smirk on her face, she lifted her
head and beamed. “I think you know everything, Drake.”
    After hearing about her dream walking
abilities I pretty much knew then that my dreams were real, but I
wanted to hear it all from her. “Yes, but I want to hear you say it
to
