"Move back in here?" Zi Mei repeated his suggestion. She disengaged from him and stood apart.

She had just regained her independence and freedom. It was lonely living alone and sometimes scary. Earlier today was scary. Still, she was independent. She was free. She could do whatever she wanted, go anywhere she wanted. She was living like a carefree college student. For once in her life, she was leading as normal a life as possible, except for the part of being a baby making slave to a few thousand year old dragon. She doesn't have to eke out a living and worry about loansharks or her father stealing all her hard-earned money to gamble it all away.

Now, she will have to move back to being his baby making slave. Granted, she has been given several months' reprieve from making babies to heal from the miscarriage. She didn't want this. Not just yet.

"Can't you do something about those demons so that I can go back home?" she asked Thorin. Her anger has deflated from Thorin's embrace. She only wanted to maintain her normal human life as much as possible before they try making dragon babies again. She has at least another five months to experience a normal student life.

"Alternatively, I can move in with you," Thorin suggested. "With me there, they would never be so brazen to enter your house again,"

She narrowed her eyes at him. Having Thorin in her house would definitely make her feel safer. Though, her house is not as luxurious and magical as his ever-changing house with his multitude gardens. Wouldn't he feel uncomfortable?

"Will Jessica and Lim and all your other aides and assistants move in too? My house isn't all that big…I only have two other spare rooms," she said.

"It's fine. They don't have to be there with us at all," he said dismissively.

"I suppose, you can always use the guest room," she conceded. He raised an eyebrow.

"Guest room? Aren't we sharing a bed?" he asked suggestively. She felt her face reddened. Living with Thorin again will definitely mean sleeping with him again every day. Her heart thumped and she could feel her body responding in excitement. Traitorous body, she thought to herself.

"I can't conceive yet," she reminded him, clearing her throat.

"There are always contraception and other ways," he responded.

"I…I am not ready to get back to it," she said though her body seemed to think otherwise.

"Really?" he asked, looking like he doesn't believe her. He gave her a knowing grin and stepped close to her.

Her stomach is now in knots and her pulse is doing the salsa at the thought of sleeping with Thorin again. His proximity is not helping either. The image of his naked muscled body leaning over hers came to mind and she swallowed hard. Even if Thorin didn't seduce her, her traitorous body will probably jump on him and hump him like she's on heat.

She felt the urge to smack herself and her horny self. There is just something irresistible about the old dragon, not to mention her deep crush on him. She studied his handsome profile surreptitiously and raised her chin in fake bravado.

"Yes, really, I am not ready," she declared, hoping she doesn't sound like she is lying.

He traced a finger down her cheek and she gasped, every nerve ending tingling from that whisper of a touch. Every sense is screaming at her to hug him and kiss him but she kept a tight rein on her traitorous horny body.

"Hmmm…I guess you are right," Thorin remarked. He bend to whisper into her ears. "I am ready anytime you want me, don't forget that," he said suggestively.

He brushed the barest of a touch of his lips on the sensitive spot on her neck. She held her breath, trying not to react, then Thorin moved away. Her pulse is now tripping over so fast, she felt as if she is getting a heart attack. She was barely containing herself from melting straight into Thorin's arms.

"Well, I hope there won't be spikes," she retorted, trying to save any shred of self respect.

Thorin scowled at her.

"That was only once, it won't happen again," he said, sounding miffed.

Now that she got the upper hand, she shrugged and grinned cheekily at him.

"Well, we never know when you could lose control again right?" she said.

"I know for a fact that it won't happen again!"

"Okayyyy…if you say so," she winked at him cheekily.

"So, are we going back to your place or will you move back here?" he changed the subject. Obviously he is still sore about the whole spike incident. It only happened once and it felt like it happened ages ago but it was not something that Zi Mei could have easily forgotten. Nobody can forget that.

"You can stay in the guest room in my house," she replied Thorin. She prefers to continue living in her own home. With Thorin there, she won't have to worry about demons and break-ins by humans too.

"But I want to know why is it that I was unable to contact you or Jessica or Lim earlier?" this had puzzled her. She is certain she tried calling them. "I couldn't even contact my friends Jazzmine and Sheena,"

"These are modern demons, they have found a way to interfere with modern human technology," he explained. "They interfered with your communications so that you couldn't call anyone,"

That doesn't make sense.

"I could call Darren. Why is that?" she asked. "So they could even block me from calling for you the usual way?"

Even Thorin was puzzled by that anomaly.

"It is strange that you could get through to Darren," he agreed. "As for not being able to call for me, I find that strange too, by right, they would not be powerful enough to interfere in my connection to you,"

"Will they be back? What if they are more powerful than you thought?" she asked. She has never dealt with dragons before this and now demons. This is beginning to sound like she is stuck in some B-grade supernatural TV series with Thorin as the lead male character and she as the weak female character.

"Does salt work on them? Maybe spells? Holy water? The cross? Burning frankincense and sage? Maybe a talisman from the temple?" she asked.

Thorin laughed. His deep baritone voice booming in mirth in the garden. She glared at him. She was being serious. That was what all those supernatural and ghost movies used.

"None of those worked, these are powerful beings, you can only fight them with the power of light," he replied.

"Power of light? Will a torchlight do? Maybe I install powerful spotlights..that should work right?" she asked. If they can be vanquished with powerful light, that's easily solved. Thank god for modern technology and bright LED lights.

Thorin burst into another bout of laughter.

"No, no, not that kind of light," he said in between his laughter. She scowled at him. It is not nice to laugh when she doesn't understand any of this!

"Well, then, tell me what kind of light???" she asked. She crossed her arms on her chest in annoyance.

"The kind that is generated by magic, by dragon shapeshifters," he replied finally.

"Fine, then, generate some and put it all over my house for me," she said.

This elicited another bout of laughter. She is so annoyed now, she went to him and kicked him. That stopped him alright. He jumped away and looked at her in surprise.

"What was that for?"

"Stop laughing!" she said. "It is not funny!"

"Okay okay, it's not the kind of light that you can bottle up as spare, let's call it an aura sort of thing, with me being there, I will emit this aura and it will deter them from coming," he explained, still smiling and trying to stifle his laughter.

Zi Mei nodded. She sort of understands it. So, there is no other way but to have Thorin move in with her.

"Fine, so, as long as you are in my house, they will never come in again?" she asked, to be certain. He nodded.

She extended her hand.

"Alright then, welcome my dear Drags, you are now my new roommate,"
