Everyone was holding their breath as they watched Roxy and her mates file out.
First came Kaelen.
His hair was tied back, with a big cloak of white and grey fur, which draped heavily over his shoulders and back, then a white loincloth made of silk around his waist, secured by a sturdy gold buckle. Tied around his upper arm was a simple but thick gold band.
He was holding Axel, who was swaddled in gold silk; it was draped loosely, allowing the baby to be cradled against Kaelen's skin.

Next came Zarek. The Dragon King the most striking feature is the golden chain veil covering the lower half of his face. He wore a heavy tiger-skin cloak draped over his arms and back, showing the tigers he was much more of a predator than prey to them.
