Worlds Collide: Chapter 1

AN: This is book 3 in a series, it can be read as a stand alone book, but to fully understand all the other character references I suggest you read The Elementals and Into The Unknown first. Hope you enjoy and thank you for reading!

As I watch my best friend literally fly off into the sunset with the love of her life, I am filled with a mix of emotions. Am I happy for her? Of course, no one deserves this more than she does. Did I cry through the wedding? I wept like a baby witnessing their true love unite. Am I jealous? Well... honestly a little, I have never even come close to what they have. Am I worried for her? I have threatened Sky enough that I doubt he would ever hurt her, but our political situation is far from settled and for some reason she has entrusted me with taking care of things while they are off on honeymoon. So yes, as they fly off, I’m the proudest bridesmaid and soon to be aunty there ever was, but I’m also wondering when my story will begin and feeling the weight of the to-do list Lily left me already.
I practically had to help Sky kidnap Lily so that she would actually agree to a honeymoon at all. Not that I was eager to take over her responsibilities, but because Sky and I both know that her stressing over everything here is not going to be good for the baby she is brewing. They are supposed to be away travelling for 4 months and are only to be contacted for the most pressing matters. I’m pretty sure my control freak bestie won’t last more than a week before she wants to check in on everything, but I’m determined to fix everything so that she has nothing to worry about. Even if paperwork, planning and organisation are not my strong suit. How hard can running 3 of the 4 dragon kingdoms be anyway?
I mean its not like they just dropped the bombshell of dragons existing to the human world and then left me to deal with the aftermath. Or like they just overthrew a corrupt leader and left me to weed out anyone complicit in his schemes. Oh or that they left me with a mountain of books to read on inter-breeding to find out if there are any risks to their child. Oh wait, that is exactly what I’m dealing with! I just have to keep taking deep breaths and remembering that I volunteered for this role. Sometimes I really curse my say yes and think it through later attitude, it has gotten me into more problems than I care to admit.
But all things considered, my happily ever after is probably a long way off, so at least I can help with theirs while I wait. I’m definitely going to be too busy for my own love story to start anytime soon....
