Hellbound With You (WN)

A thunderous roar escaped Dinah ’s throat, drawing Alex back to his present predicament.

Alex knew he could dodge the dragon ’s fireballs all day if he had to but dodging wasn ’t going to help him defeat this dragon. He had to attack, but how? Should he let his claw grow? Alex shook his head. No, a claw wouldn ’t be enough and he really preferred to use a sword even when fighting a dragon but how could he get another one? Alex really didn ’t want to go back up to the cavern because he was certain that Dinah would burn everyone to ashes. It was best to keep her down here, away from his wife and the others for now until he could think of a plan of attack.

He was kept busy in the next second as Dinah blasted a few fireballs at him. Alex easily dodged them but he knew this was only the start. When none of the fireballs hit their target, Dinah ’s next move was to make it rain with fire and then she attacked with a massive fireball as a surprise.

”Damn woman, ” Alex cursed as he leapt backward from the oncoming ball of fire. However, just as he landed, Dinah ’s attack collided with another fireball that came from the dragon behind him.

Alex turned to see Zeres behind him on all fours, ready to form another fireball. Alex understood what was happening and he quickly looked up at the opening high above him. He saw his wife standing there, clad in her silver cloak, her dark silky hair dancing behind her. Her eyes were closed and despite the dirt and blood splattered all over her skin, his beloved was shining so brightly like a fiery star on a dark, dark night.

A proud smile curved on Alex ’s face. He could tell that his wife was now doing what she was naturally born to do-, to command the dragon and make them listen to her. While he was admiring his wife from afar, Zeres threw another fireball at Dinah and in the next second, the two great dragons flew up from the ground and collided above Alex.

This was Alex ’s opportunity to exploit Dinah ’s Achilles heel. Alex looked up again and mumbled a few words, knowing that his wife could hear him.

The next second, Alex saw Kai throw a blade down and Alex caught it with ease. The sword he had in his hand was the dragon-scaled blade he had given to Abigail.
