Sadly I do not own Firelight by Sophia Jordan, but here is my story starting from the end of the first book. Enjoy!
Cassian drove in silence as he sped through the forest back to the pride. I had exposed my self to a group of hunters, for all I am concerned my wings should be clipped. Will would break his promise and never find me. Not that it was a possibility given that his mind will probably be shaded.
"What about my Mom and Tamra?" I asked through the darkness.
"I'm not sure" He furrowed his brow.
"Cassian! Will you tell your father that you found them?" I was getting pissed.
"Not if I don't have to." He sighed. "My father is only interested in you returning to the pride." I winced. Severin always believed that if Cassian and I were to mate, then the lifeline of the fire breathers would be preserved. I couldn't see the pride in the distance, but I knew it was there. As the perpetual mist that covers our township was lifted, Cassian drove us straight to his father's house.
"It is nice of you to return to us Jacinda." Severin toward over me, staring at me intently with his dark eyes as he ushered me into his home.
"Your welcome" I said sarcastically as I took a seat at their kitchen table. Cassian sat down next to me.
"We need to discuss a few things before anyone else knows you have returned." Severin started as he sat down at the table. I nodded in agreement as I sat on my hands to resist the need to rip his throat out. Cassian placed a reassuring hand on my thigh, which I pushed off.
"Firstly where are your mother and Tamra?" He entwined his large fingers on top of the wooden kitchen table. I shrugged.
"I have no idea." I kept my voice even as I sounded out each word. Severin leant back in his seat.
"Well their presence is of little concern to me now" A smile escaped from his lips. "Now that we have you back" Cassian's mother bustled into the room carrying a tray of tea and biscuits. She placed a cup in front of me smiling sweetly. A woman of few words she is. I took a small sip and allowed the warmth of the tea slide down my throat.
"Are we discussing wedding details yet?" She asked when she sat down at the table. I refrained from spitting my tea.
"What!" I managed through coughs.
"It's a bit soon father" Cassian piped in shooting me a glance of concern.
"Nonsense!" Severin exclaimed "The sooner the better." I know he just wants something to tie me to the pride, and what better way then a child.
"I refuse" I stood up from my chair.
"Oh darling" Cassians mother came to stand next to me placing an arm over my shoulders "you have no choice in the matter" I scowled at her. Serverin let out a slight laugh.
"If you would excuse me for a moment." I began to walk towards the door, but was stopped by Severins outstretched arm.
"You're not going anywhere until you have agreed to some terms."
"And what would these terms be? And are they up for negotiation?" I sat back down in my seat crossing my arms. Severin sighed.
"Listen Jacinda!" he was getting impatient "We will not clip your wings if you bare three children, in wedlock, with Cassian." I tried to look at Cassian but he was staring at his hands. Mr. confident not so anymore I guess. I know that it is going to be awfully hard to escape again, especially by myself. Drawing out time until I have a working plan could be done.
"Fine." I said.
"Fine?" Cassian shot a look at me.
"Yes. Lets plan a wedding."
