Kaleth felt the return of the call, it was faint, and it was hard to hear it. Why? So many people in one area, something he wasn’t used to. In his homeland this many people so close together not even in the biggest towns and all the dirty smells that could notice wasn’t something he would put up with for long.

“Cease your worries my son, you will find your mate and you will return here with them.” His mother ran her hands through his hair as he leaned his forehead against hers. “I know, but I worry about the…” He started until a hush escaped the older womans lips. “The twins will be fine without you, they are a handful but they do still listen to their mother.” Laughter held in her voice as he couldn’t help but let out a chuckle. “If that is what you wish to think mother.” Kaleth pulled his head away and looked at her again taking her hands into his and then brought them up to his lips. “I will find my mate and I will return to take the spot as our King. Then, you can worry about the twins and teaching my wife, what she needs to know. Maybe even help take care of her while she pregnant with your grandchildren.” He spoke as a smile broke against the older womans features showing that she would be happy to do so especially if she got to see them before her death. The idea of her dying broke his heart, but he knew it broke her heart being away from her love, the rest of her soul who had died a few years ago.

First, he had dropped his things off at a New York City hotel; he had no reason to find a home here in this land. Even if they had money to easily waste, to him he rather not waste it on nonsense here. It was then he continued on his hunt for his mate, a mate who didn’t realize it was calling to him. Her soul was, as well as a scent that she gave off. Not just anyone could bare a dragon’s child, not just anyone could be a match for a dragon. A dragon who would give her offspring that would in the future become a King himself, unless they had a female who could fully turn into a dragon. Mainly, males could become full dragons from human mothers, females didn’t always get the change to fully change their body would not allow it.
It was Saturday when he made his move and continued on his search. His hand ran through his dark brown hair as he turned another street only to see the bookstore coming into view. “She is in there.” He muttered to himself and moved forward moving around people who was rushing one way or another. The door opened an elderly couple came out as he quickly moved holding the door open for them. “Thank You.” The older female said as she smiled touching her husband’s arm as they past him and he entered the store. For a bookstore it was quiet, one would be surprised to exit the area to the busy streets.
“Smells like an old bookstore. I wonder if she likes books then.” He muttered out loud to himself, the smell of the books and the girl caused him to smile as he moved forward to catch a glimpse of the female.
