Benjamin’s hand slid around the back of my neck, drawing me closer, his touch cold. He was huge, a Dragon Shifter with a streak of wildness in him that made him unpredictable. “Are you too afraid, Mason?” he asked, smoke pluming from his nostrils as his eyes turned to reptilian slits. “Because fear doesn’t belong in my house.” I was afraid. Terrified. But I didn’t want to die. And there was something about Benjamin that made me want to prove myself worthy of being here.
