“Do you not think it a bit barbaric, Father?” Bertram asked, keeping the strain out of his voice by virtue of his training alone. “We are no longer in the dark ages. Omegas aren’t toys to do with as we please. They are living, breathing, sentient creatures who deserve more respect than we are showing them. They should not be forced to participate in an experiment against their will. They should not be made to bear eggs.”
Grimbold snorted with laughter. “What other purpose do Pedigree omegas serve?”
“Any number of purposes, if only we were to let them.”
He didn’t know if he’d struck a nerve, but Grimbold was silent for an unusually long time. At last, he said, “Are you well, child? This behavior is unlike you.”
“I am well enough to know we shouldn’t go through with the experiment. Some part of you must see the injustice of it, Father. It’s not just barbaric—it’s cruel.”
“Lord, you have been stationed in California for far too long.” Grimbold sighed. “Child, there is no cruelty in this. We are on the verge of solving the issue that has doomed us as a species. Pedigree omegas understand this. They have been trained to accept it, and they embrace their position and the duties it entails. Perhaps you should think about doing the same.”
Grimbold didn’t speak those words harshly, but they cut into Bertram all the same. He wanted to lash out, to scream, to tell his father that any omega who had his eggs taken from him would never be right again, but there was no way he could do it without exposing the truth—that he was mated to a dragon slayer, and that he himself was a traitor and guilty of treason. It would be a death sentence, and there would be no saving any omega if he was dead.
He only hoped Sorin would understand.
“I hear you,” he conceded, “but I do not agree. I urge you to consider what I’ve said.”
“Are you sure nothing is wrong?”
“Yes.”
“I am not sure I believe you. You are unusually despondent.”
“It’s been a long day,” Bertram said truthfully, gazing out the master bedroom’s wide window at the ocean, stained orange by the sunset, “and I’m not the whelp I used to be. These high-risk missions are wearing me out faster than they used to.”
“Your service is appreciated,” Grimbold said warmly. “You do good work, Bertram. I couldn’t ask for a better agent, or a better son.”
Bertram’s lips thinned. He watched golden waves break on the sandbar.
“When this is over and the Topaz clan has retracted its claws, perhaps you should come to Aurora,” Grimbold offered. “It would be nice to have you here while your nephews are still young.”
The invitation took Bertram by surprise, but the burst of pleasure he got from it didn’t last for long. There were too many things he had to do, both for the council and for himself. There was no rest for the wicked, and of all the Drakes alive, he had to be the wickedest of them all.

Raven: Part One
Forbidden Desires, Book 8
Bertram Drake, the most mysterious Drake brother, leads a life shrouded in secrecy. Taken from his brothers at a young age and shaped into a weapon to be used by the dragon council, he has one sole purpose: obey the orders given to him, no matter what they might be.
Once a perfect jewel of the Pedigree, Sorin’s sparkle has been dulled. Taken from his cloister and sold regularly to the highest bidder, he has learned two vital truths.
The first: that dragons are monsters who will stop at nothing to get what they want.
And the second, most terrible truth of all: that egg madness is a lie—omegas are not saved from a lifetime of pain even when they are separated from their eggs.
When Sorin’s newest buyer mysteriously dies, Sorin sees it as his chance to escape from the hellish life he’s been forced to lead. The only obstacle? A handsome agent of the council who has been tasked with ending his life.
… and who has custody of his eggs.
