I am the dragon
Step into the hidden world of the Dragonkin, where ancient power stirs beneath the surface of modern society. Lucas Grey, a fierce young Sire, is on the cusp of his eighteenth birthday, poised to inherit a legacy of power, secrets, and a burning desire for vengeance. But when an unexpected ceremony unleashes a beast unlike any seen in centuries, Lucas finds himself a target, his family in peril, and his destiny entwined with a girl he can't remember, yet feels irrevocably bound to. Will he master his terrifying new power, protect his loved ones, and uncover the truth behind his parents' murder, or will the shadows of the past consume him and his lair?The old house felt hollow, a silent testament to the void my parents left a year ago. Today, though, was different. Today, I turned seventeen.
“Happy birthday Lucas!”
Hannah’s shriek ripped through my feigned sleep, followed by the familiar thump of her small body launching onto my mattress. I chuckled, feigning a groan as I caught her in a bear hug, already anticipating the tickle war.
“What’s the first rule?” I asked, pinning her down.
“Never enter your bedroom without knocking,” she gasped, laughing.
“And the punishment?”
“To be your slave for a week!” she yelled, squirming. “But it’s your birthday!”
She had a point. I released her, and she sprang off the bed, a whirlwind of energy. “Martha’s already announced breakfast!” she squealed, disappearing. I groaned, dragging myself out of bed. In the bathroom mirror, my reflection stared back: a faint black eye, a split lip, and aching ribs—souvenirs from yesterday’s training. Just another day in the life of Lucas Grey, future Sire of the Grey Lair. Tonight, everything would change.
