#eggpreg week

I found this reference on Pinterest. Not sure who the original creator is, but it really reminded me of Steve, and I thought it would be so pretty for Eggpreg Week.

Excerpt: Shane dove, wings slicing through the air, the tips brushing the sparkling surface of a stream. A trill burst from his chest—half laughter, half challenge—as a flash of silvery-blue scales erupted upward, fangs snapping shut just shy of his trailing feathers. He banked left sharply, letting the rising breeze catch beneath his wings and sling him higher into the morning light.

Below, Ilya hissed, his tail rattling with impatience. His slitted eyes were locked on Shane with a single focus.

Shane’s heart skipped—a flutter of exhilaration rather than fear. None of the other Alphas had ever been so determined or come so close. The thrill curled through him like a second heartbeat. He circled lazily overhead, wings glinting, teasing with every downward dip. Then—at the last breath—he pulled up sharply, letting the wind hurl him skyward just before Ilya could strike.

Again and again, they danced that dangerous edge: Shane swooping low enough to feel the heat of Ilya’s breath, Ilya lunging with lethal grace, never quite catching, and Shane spiraling skyward, trills of joy echoing across the meadow.

It was a game of instinct and daring—cat and mouse, predator and prey—yet somehow more intimate than any Hunt Shane had ever flown. And with every near miss, every hiss of frustration, every flap of his wings… he found himself daring Ilya to try harder.

Excerpt:

The Aerians and Nagari had been at war for centuries, so long that neither remembered why the war started. All they knew was the great divide of blood and betrayal between their people, so wide no one was certain it could be filled. Their instincts made them natural predators, and their ways could not have been more different. The Aerians soared through the skies with grace and precision, while the Nagari slithered across the earth with stealth and lethal intent.

Finally, the two sides had agreed to meet and discuss peace. The royal families were gathered on the mountain that touched the skies, tension churning in the air like a storm.

“We are to trust a piece of paper?” King Grigori hissed with contempt. “Do you take me for a fool? What will prevent your people from breaking the treaty as they have before?”

The Aerian Queen Yuna glared at him. “As if we have any reason to trust your people,” she spat, her wings rustling behind her in agitation.

“Then a betrothal is the only way to ensure lasting peace,” Grigori said, his forked tongue flicking with irritation.

“I forbid it!” Yuna’s shriek echoed through the hall, feathers bristling in fury.

David, Yuna’s consort, stepped forward cautiously. “Might I suggest a compromise?”

Both monarchs turned on him, eyes blazing with fury.

“The Equinox approaches,” David continued, holding up his hands in a gesture of appeasement. “Both our peoples celebrate the spring hunt in our own ways. Why not have our heirs participate? Let them run the Chase. If your son catches ours, then they will be mated and thus seal the treaty in a bond between our two peoples.”

They were both speechless, unable to think of an argument. Even the advisors seemed to hold their breath, caught between centuries of enmity and the fragile hope that perhaps, at last, a new era could begin.
