[Dragon Shifter 04] • Survivor

I can read minds, but my "gift" has never helped me.

All it does is let me know when someone is going to hurt me, and how they'll do it.

I knew evil Dragon Shifters hunted me, but I couldn't outrun them.

I could do nothing to stop them from enslaving me.

The things they did to me... The things they made me do...

They'll haunt me for the rest of my life.

I saw an opportunity to escape, and I took it...only to run straight into another Dragon Shifter's arms.

His is the only mind I cannot read. Strong, dark and quiet, he's not like the others.

His commanding presence should terrify me, but it doesn't.

A part of me trusts him -- a part of me knows that I belong to him.

But when he looks into my eyes, he sees someone else.

Something happened to him. Something horrific.

I want to heal his broken heart, but how can I ask him to trust me when I'm also keeping secrets?

I'll never hurt him. I only want to help.

But if he knew my secret, he'd never believe me.

He'd never trust me again.

I have nowhere else to go.

But even if I did, I've never felt more at home than in his arms.

I'll do anything to stay here...even if it means lying to the man I love.
