Taming Her Beastly Mate

Hot.

Cold.

Hot.

Cold.

Two very different types of burning sensations that were both deadly.

"Heat Miser! Snow Miser!" Micah growled as Brian and Alexis returned to their human forms.

"What seems to be the problem?" Brian watched as Micah swung his arms out in exasperation.

"You two are destroying the training ground...again.Look at it! It’s a mess.I think we need to look into a better fighting barrier or going somewhere that is all rocks."

Micah looked over at the burned grass and large crater filled ice daggers filling the area.

"See Brian.This is what happens when you don’t let us have an easy session."

Alexis frowned and rubbed her forehead for a moment.

Then a wicked smile spread over her face.

"You know ...the cliffside is all rocks.And we can’t damage anything over the ocean."

"Lex, no."

Micah looked at her with annoyance shaking his head.

"Don’t even think about it.I can’t get to you over the ocean."

"You can’t get to her in the air either." Brian grinned in triumph with a shrug.

"I don’t think it’s a bad idea.Especially with these sessions getting more intense.We can’t damage anything over the ocean."

“Protecting herself is one thing...but you are training her like we have a war coming up."

Micah inhaled sharply and pursed his lips together.

"My nerves can’t take the thought of you actually fighting Lex."

"Micah, you aren’t turning soft on me are you?"Alexis bumped into his shoulder playfully and turned to look up at him.

"I know your job is to protect me and keep me safe.But my job is to protect the fairies.I won’t hide behind a barrier.I will fight.I believe the reason we are a strong duo is because we are going to have to fight.And if something happens to me while fighting...it will never be because of you.Because I know you will risk your life protecting me."

She shrugged slightly and shook her head.

"But this isn’t like how it has been in the past.The fairy princess isn’t the same now.Ever since my grandma Lilly we have grown in strength.We are meant for more than to be protected.You and I are meant for greatness.And you will be the legendary guardian that all guardians will talk about for years to come."

"Of course, that is unless you end up mated to that deity of yours.Then think of what kind of powerhouse princess will come from that union? The fairy princess will basically be a deity."Micah watched the frown form on her face.

"Lex..."

"Don’t you dare think I am some weak girl pining away for a man."

Alexis snapped her eyes at him and furrowed her brows.

"You know you men take too much charge over this whole dating scene.The man asks the woman out.The man decides on the relationship.The man steals the princess for his own.Well...IF I decide that I must have Aken, then I will.If that makes me sound crazy then he better hide really well because crazy is after him."

She looked up between Brian and Micah, whose jaws were slightly agape as they stared at her.
