Chapter 27

I was introduced to rest of the residents and was escorted by twelve very excited young dragons that were born yesterday. They were overjoyed at the thought of being handed an assignment. Their eyes sparkled with innocence, happiness, hope and pure love. They hopped and jumped with each step they took to escort me. These young ones looked like excited kids that go to kindergarten. They joyfully assured me that this was the safest place on the island. It is where the brain is situated. There were slight protruding of the bones that acted as partitions here and there. It had perforations in the place where the optic nerve must have passed through that allowed light to pass through. The first thing that I realized when I walked in was that the place needed a through cleaning. The floor was littered with bird poop, slime and dried leaves. I remembered about the totaled ships so I flew out to the shipwrecks. First I found items I could use to clean the place. When I was done it was spotless but it still stinks. I went back and forth to and from the totaled ships and back to my new room till I had some clothes and a carpet and a few useable pillows to sleep in. Also tried to find something to remove the stench.

I sat down and admired the view. It was gorgeous. And speaking of gorgeous the handsome guy came and sat next to me. I lost the ability to speak. He had smoking gray eyes, platinum blonde hair and not to mention his skin had a slight tan. He was breathtaking and he smiled as though he seemed to know it. I finally found my voice and asked why he was angry at me. He had the most amazing voice ever. He explained calmly, "I was asleep in a cave on Skull island when I got electrocuted. The face I remembered seeing when I woke up was you" I confessed it was Tiamat that zapped him to get rid of Poseidon's trident. I had discovered that his angry fire breath can destroy these things. He seemed skeptical about my story so I reached out to touch him and he let his fingertips touch mine with curiosity. I showed him what happened that day. He was shocked at this discovery that people could show memories by touch. He also was not amused that Tiamat had the gall to zap him. He went to talk to Zuni.

He came back with a basket of fruits as an apology. Someone pinch me please. He was followed by an army of equally breathtaking men. Every dragon on this island was in front of me in battalions. From blondes, and brunettes to redheads. Bright blue eyes, dark black eyes, caramel to chocolate brown eyes, brilliant green eyes and smoky gray eyes. From lean built guys to guys that were built like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Some had wavy hair, some had curly hair and some had straight. Some had short hair while the others had long hair that was tied up. Seriously if there were sprinklers they would turn on by now considering how hot they looked. I would have called the police and arrested these guys if I could. They were so beautiful they should be made illegal. Someone please call the fire department because they are going to be a roaring bonfire pretty soon. If I were to stare at them I might dip my finger in a pot of boiling water and I wouldn't feel it.

I was shocked and scared because I remembered that these were dragons in disguise. As beautiful as they are they can just as easily kill me. I backed away in fear and they stopped. They raised their hand in a way to pacify me and promised not to hurt me. The oldest of one the group approached me and asked me to show him Poseidon and the others insisted we do this outside since he is the one who had the least amount of control over his anger. We walked out and I showed him every memory of the mad merman and his monster. After a few moments this angry dragon blew his top. He changed into a dragon and I had to run for my life. I hid in the nearest cave till one of them came to tell me that it was safe. When he calmed down he escorted me out and I saw that I was hiding in Drogon's ear. Ew! Seriously gross but safe never the less. On the bright side, it wasn't his nose. If I had been in there I would spend the entire length of my stay scrubbing my body.

I walked around in the sandy shore with bare feet. I enjoyed waves gently caressing the path as well as my feet. I joyfully danced around and saw that the Isle only had men. They all looked like they are either in high school or a freshman in college. They seemed highly amused at my frivolous joy but I didn't care. I grew up imagining that I was a mermaid and spent most of my time imagining what it would be like to swim in the ocean and enjoy the beaches. Zuni looked happy to hear my thoughts.

This moment was ruined by the arrival of the gypsies to say that James tried to kill Drake but failed so I will be here for a while. Drake sends his regards because he wouldn't be caught dead here. She confessed that he has the knack of pissing the Dragons one way or the other. The last time he was here, he lost his temper and the dragons warned him that if he ever shows up it would be his funeral. I wished Drake all the luck in the world and gave her my earrings as proof so he will know she met me. I watched as she gave him my earrings and he smiled warmly. I turned to see that the dragons were observing my reaction and were taking an interest in me. I blushed eight shades of red and slowly walked towards the foliage growing in the jaws.

I sat down with a blood bag and drink it slowly. When I was done the gypsy asked me why I would choose this island when I could stay with Tiamat. The answer was obvious but I told her it is a secret. I will explain it to my husband when I return home. I felt safe knowing there is no spell in existence that could penetrate this place. She stared for a moment and she realized the answer. She gave me a curt nod and left.

The dragon I met on Skull Island sat next to me. He asked me why I became a vampire and why I landed myself here. I extended my hand but it was his younger brother that touched my hand. He proudly declared it was his turn to see things. When he was done the others nod their heads. I realized they are psychically linked. They can talk to each other without speaking. They gave me a naughty wink. I walked through the mouth and found a pool where I can take a bath in. I slipped my arm out of my dress and I heard a sharp gasp. "You are beautiful." I yelped, "You are staring at me?" I turned around to see a curious young dragon gawking at me. He shrugged, "I stare at everything on this island. What's the problem?" I explained to him about niceties and mannerisms. He chuckled at my explanation and walked away to chat with the others.
