can get on with the fucking. You may start begging at any moment,
so we had better get you armed and your first lesson over with.” He
turns and walks away.
    “ I will never beg,” I
whisper to his back.
    He hears me, though he doesn’t bother
looking at me “Never say never,” is his pompous reply.

Chapter Fourteen
     
    Laryn
    My human weapons master stands to the
side of the door as my bride walks through the large chamber. I
watch her admire each piece with complete wonder. You would think
she was examining the finest jewels. She returns several times to
an overly large halberd. I love the weapon, though it is much too
large for her. I walk over and lift it from its stand.
    “ It’s quite sharp, a good
weapon, but not a proper size for you. The halberd is deadly and
takes a master to wield it proficiently.” I step several yards away
and sweep the air in front of me. The blade whooshes through the
air and makes a unique sound.
    She’s captivated.
    “ Armorer, you will have one
made for use by my bride no later than next week.” Unable to speak
aloud, he nods. My gaze travels to my bride. “Choose a sword more
suited to your size so we may practice today.” I place the halberd
back in its stand.
    “ You truly mean to do
this?”
    I have no idea why she’s confused. “I
said I will train you and I don’t go back on my word.” Besides, I
want to see her move in the new clothes. They suit her and they’re
alluring. I will need to protect my swelling cock from the sharp
blade she chooses.
    She walks over to a row of swords.
“I’ve only had the one in my life and I have no idea how to test
the weight or balance.” She peers over her shoulder and I see gold
flecks lighting up her eyes. It does something inside of me. I rein
it in. My goal is not to like her more than I already do, just to
fuck her.
    “ Lift each sword and strike
with it as I did the halberd. You’ll know your sword when you find
it.”
    Her smile changes everything. The
hard, determined lines accenting her cheekbones fade and dimples
appear to the sides of her lips. Her mouth is slightly open. I want
my tongue swirling over her plump lips and between her teeth. I
thought she wasn’t more beautiful than some of my past brides, but
I was wrong. When she smiles, their beauty is only a fraction of
hers.
    I’m glad when she turns back to the
swords and begins testing them. She needs to bend her elbow and
knees, though these are things I shall teach her. Her muscles are
firm and I have no doubt that for a human female, she’s in very
good shape. I want those muscles defined. And at the same time, I
want her to remain feminine. I’m not sure if I can have
both.
    She goes back to the fourth sword and
swipes it through the air once more. “I like this one.”
    It’s said tentatively as if she thinks
I will deny her the sword. “Allow me to examine it.” Each sword
within this chamber is balanced perfectly and extremely sharp. She
has chosen a weapon almost too large for her. It will cause her to
tire easily, but her endurance is something we will work on. She
passed by the delicate swords and showed her resolve by wanting a
larger weapon. I hand the sword back to her. “I approve. Bring the
scabbard and follow me. It’s time for your first
lesson.”
    It’s difficult not to turn around to
see if she’s smiling.
    I take her back to the north tower. We
climb the stairs instead of descending to the bottom. I hear her
breathing increase the higher we go. We stop three-quarters of the
way to the top and I walk out onto a large perch used when I’m in
dragon form. It’s a half-circle and about forty feet at its widest
section.
    She steps through the opening and I
see her eyes widen in alarm. “You me… mean to train me here?” she
stutters.
    “ Yes,” I say as I walk to
the center of the perch. “When you battle, you must always know
your surroundings. I think it will be a more powerful lesson if the
fear of
