Dragon Lords of Valdier Boxset Books 1–3

“Ah, Abby, you are mine, elila. Tonight and always I take you as my true mate. My love for you will be burned into your soul as yours will be burned into mine,” Zoran said

Zoran’s hand shook as he gently brushed Abby’s hair away from her damp forehead. She had survived. His true mate had survived, and she had accepted him, his dragon, and his symbiot

She was unaware as the first faint ripples of dragon scales, pale blues, golds, and whites, began forming under her skin. Mounting her from behind, Zoran watched as thin membranes fanned out along her back. His dragon roared in triumph at watching his mate being born

He couldn’t shake the feeling of fear that she would hate him after he did what he was planning

No, what she was worried about was losing something far more important. She worried she would lose her heart to the one man she could never have. She knew she loved him. She didn’t know how she knew. She hardly knew the man, but she could feel it deep down inside her.

There was so much he wanted to ask her, so much he wanted to tell her and yet he couldn’

In Abby’s case, it was even more potent, because not only had he chosen her as his mate, but so had his symbiot, and from the feel of it, his dragon. This was very rare. As the ruler of his people, he would be expected to produce many heirs, and only in a union where he, his dragon, and his symbiot accepted the female would this happen.
