Never Fall for a Dragon (Mate Mountain, #1)

by Lola Glass

“Heat doesn’t only start the first time you meet a compatible human—it can start at any point. After a deep conversation. A shared smile. A joke. A glare. A fight. Unmated dragons don’t connect with humans in any way, because it’s too much of a risk. Can’t connect with other supernaturals either, because we have to be neutral.” Her hand tightened around my erection. I had to clench my jaw to stop myself from losing control. Had to close my eyes, too. She looked too damn good. “So you’ve never had sex before?” “No.” “Has anyone ever touched you like this before?” “You’re the first, Fireball.”

“You’re beautiful.” His voice was quiet. “I can’t remember if I’ve told you that.”

I’d be back for my Fireball, and the home we’d made ours, as soon as possible.

“You smell amazing, Vi” Eli offered. “Just figured I’d throw that out there.”

“If I die, you’re going to end up with some other bastard,” August said. “So I’m not going to die. There’s no reason to talk about it. You’re mine.”
