Where is Our Dragon?

"Sssh, She is sleeping, so ill have to carry you the same way, Mishka, Okay? The rest..."

"So we just aren't going to talk about the women in your arms that is Marlogra, let's assume. Oh, and we won't talk about the fact that you are covered in strange blackthorns and marking from your neck down?"

Black marks... Tattoos... MY TATTOOS! I practically dropped Marly in my excitement to look, and it was true. My tattoos were back. Black tribal patterns covered my arms and then became solid, running up my neck.

All since I was fifteen, for a job I did, I had only been able to finish then recently, before... and everything had been going by in a blur since and I never even thought about them. Now though, in this world, I could wear the same t-shirt and pants while looking bad-ass.

"I would like to get us back, and then we can talk about every. Yes, this is Marly the Dragon-Kin."

I noticed Mesh, and I could tell he wanted to say something.

"Mesh, yes, to answer your question, you won't ask. very close, unlike before, but we will all talk more when we get back."

"Ya, about that," Kadence said and then continued. "We already figured something like this, well not this, but we thought you might need to travel together, and I can take Mishka. She is immune to fire, and Kara made her clothes, so we will be okay."

"Alright then, let's get back and see how everyone is doing with our group."

I jumped up and Seared my thoughts to get a quick take-off, and this time, I kept up. I held Marly tight with one arm over and one under her wings. The wind took the strip of shirt out of my hand that a barrier between hand and heaven. Suddenly, I was gripping her bare bottom tightly, sinking my hand into the soft flesh of her cheek.

I slowed for a second but then caught back up, but I noticed both Kyra and Mesh giving me dirty little looks. I can't catch a break. Do any of these fuckers want to be carrying the dragon when she wakes up? No, I didn't fucking think so, but I'm the bad guy here because the wind interceded on my behalf!

There was nothing to do about it for now, and when I looked over at Kadence and Mishka, they were both laughing at us. Well, this trip would be memorable; I kind of wish we had a camera. I wonder how I could spin kicking the shit out of Marly to the girls?

Suddenly, Marly started to stir in my arm, and then she lifted her head to mine. Our eyes connect, and then hers went wide. Next, her face got hot and red, and then Marly pushed away from me into the open air.

I panicked for like, one second because her wings opened that fast, but she didn't need to move them. Suddenly Marly took off without warning, breaking the sound barrier and causing us to get knocked off course, but we recovered.

I looked to Mesh and Kyra, but neither would look at me. Oh, were they all buddy, buddy now, eh? I guess I had it coming, but I just kept going. There were bigger fish to fry right now.

Marly came back but flew above me and didn't talk, which I was okay with. It was close to dark by the time we found the train of wagons, with the familiar House-Wagon leading them. I was excited to be back home and sleep in my bed tonight. I had a bedroom date with my angry Cat-Elf wife over there, and I have heard the angry sex was good!

I noticed a large metal plate and a giant metal pot upside down on another plate. I burned all the way down to the metal this time and touched down easily. Now, this was nice, Home rolling Home!

"Hyde!"

I turned to see Arrentia come running to me, and I took her in my arms. Behind me, the others touched down, but Marly stayed hovering ten feet above us. When I had kissed Arrentia and rubbed noses with her, she looked up, and I sighed.

"Come down here, Marly, and meet my wives and friends."

"Your... Wives..."

Marly slowly sank down to where I was standing with Arrentia. Marly had a confused look on her face, but then she grabbed me by the arm, pulling me away from Arrentia and the rest of the group. She waved at me, and I leaned down so she could whisper to me.

"Can you not tell them I am Marlogra? Just... Call me Marly like you have been and make up some story, okay?"

"Yeah, I can do that," and I was about to pull away, but her voice stopped me again.

"Do... Do I have to be one of your wives? I don't, mind and you seem to like this body... So..." Marly's voice trailed off.

As much as I wanted to say yeah, I would wait. There were other things in the making here, and I wasn't going to step in the middle of them. This idea wasn't my original plan, but I had to try when I saw the way Mesh reacted to her.

"No, you are free to do as you like. Also, I don't pick my wives, they pick me, or my other wives pick them. I have no say in the matter."

"That's right, he will conquer the world, and we will rule it for him!"

Alex walked up beside me and took my arm, and then my eight wives surrounded us. Marly looked a bit intimidated until Kadence pushed in and put a blanket around Marly's barely concealed body and then led her away. I let out a sigh of relief to have that over and done with. Now, if I could just get Kyra and myself into my bed and... But Alex spun me roughly around to face her.

"So, Hyde, Dear. What is this winged girl doing here, and where is our dragon?"
