Excerpt:
I’m glad it’s only six months this time. We are here for business only. The corporation needs to hire new management, as profits have gone down. I will not tolerant incompetence in our business. Every time we have to check on the businesses, no matter what state we are in, Showken always finds a girl for his pleasure. Well, not this time, I’m not having it, or I will send him back home. There are plenty to play with there. I just had to march some little girl off the lawn, on our first day, because Showken can’t keep his smile to himself. We must discuss this.
“Showken, no girls on the property, at the office, or in the car at all. Leave them alone,” I growl out. That girl, Cess, is going to be a problem, I can tell.
“Draken, listen, just because you have this “no play while working” doesn’t mean I have to follow. I like females and they like me, just relax, I never harm them,” Showken says, calmly.
"Six months and we are home, away from this place. Keep it in your pants, or I might ask you for something, just do as I ask.” I snap. We have finished the unloading, and Layern and Gemi are setting up downstairs in the basement.
“Draken, what are you thinking?” Layern asks with a narrowing of his eyes, Layern and his gift. Whatever you have got hidden in your mind or heart, Layern knows how to find it.
“I’m just thinking about the interviews coming up this week,” I say, trying to push it way down, so he can’t see it, but my brother’s perceptions are too fast.
“I could have sworn I saw you thinking about Cess, you know, the neighbor you were so rude to, and was looking at her legs.” Layern says with one brow up. Shit, what am I going to say? She is attractive, and she did make me want her even with her threats? That little girl has to stay away from me.
“Oh, so that’s why she had to leave, you want her. Brother, all you had to do was say something and I would have backed off,” Showken says with a frown.
“I don’t want that girl, and Layern, stay out my head,” I say, done with the discussion. I return to my office and start working on new layouts for the office here in Arizona. I hear Showken yelling through the closed door: “Draken, if you want her, just say it.” I totally ignore my favorite brother. I love all my brothers and sisters, but Showken is the only brother I never fought with growing up. Being the oldest, and heir to the throne, jealousy is common. I had the misfortune to be born first , andow I have all these expectations, not only from our parents, but all our kind as well. Showken treats me just like a normal brother. I fight with some of my other brothers, and blood has been shed more than once. When I got word that we had to visit Earth, I was displeased. I love living in Kalin, the home of the most powerful dragons. I’m what you may call a shifter. Not all in the land have this ability, but all the Draglen Brothers can..........
