The Dragon DelaSangre is a series of four Urban Fantasy novels written by Alan F. Troop. The Dragon DelaSangre Dragon Moon The Seadragon’s Daughter A Host of DragonsThe books follow Peter DelaSangre, a shapeshifting man-eating dragon (a “Person of the Blood�) who lives on his father Don Henri’s private island off the shore of Miami. He often rides to the mainland on his Grady White to manage LaMar Associates, the company his father built with the treasure he amassed through his fleet of pirate ships. Growing up in the mid-20th century, Peter used his shapeshifting abilities to make himself look like the movie stars he saw on TV; this, combined with his wealth, brings a lot of attention from human women, but he needs a mate of his own kind. One night he catches a faint cinnamon musk in the air which draws him south, all the way to Jamaica’s Cockpit Country. With the scant knowledge his now-deceased father left him of his own race, Peter needs to win his bride, Elizabeth, and bring her home to Miami. Meanwhile, there are constant threats to his privacy and his fortune. | |

Voluntary Shapeshifting | |

Voluntary Shapeshifting: From an early age, Undrae learn to take human form. They can shift their entire bodies or simply change their fingers into talons. There’s no limit on how long they can stay in either form. The Pelk learn to shift into dolphin forms too. Shifting burns a lot of energy and makes them hungry. | |

Chekhov's Gun: In Dragon Moon we see a door near Peter’s treasure room, secured with rusted chains he has never removed, protecting a secret relic his family has had for as long as anyone can remember. His father warned him to ‘open this door only if you have no other hope’. The fight with Charles and Derek later on gives Peter the need to look inside. | |

Stranger Danger: When they’re in the city for Calle Ocho, a stranger asks Lizzie if she can help find his dog. Through mindspeaking her brother and parents are able to figure out what’s happening and tell her to shift a finger into a talon. She gives him a deep cut and runs before he can get her into the back of the Mercedes. The man, a human that the germans set up, thinks the little girl cut him with a knife. | |

Predatory Business: LaMar Associates was built by Don Henri to keep the DelaSangre family wealthy and to give them control over Miami’s politics. The company has been led by members of the Gomez family for as long as it’s existed, humans the DelaSangres trust to do whatever it takes to advance the company’s interests and keep their secrets. In Dragon Moon and A Host of Dragons, other firms controlled by dragons try to seize control of LaMar from Peter. | |

In The Seadragon’s Daughter, Peter and Chloe need to be suspicious of every dolphin that roams near their island as they prepare for Mowdar’s arrival. When Mowdar takes heavy losses and tries to retreat, promising Peter he’d return, the dolphins near the island see an opportunity for revenge against the Pelk. | |

Engagement Challenge | |

Engagement Challenge: In Dragon Moon’s story of Dwyla and Kestur, set long before humans controlled the Earth, Magnus locked his daughter away during Oestrus and fought any males who were drawn to mate with her. One of the young males, Kestur, suggested he and Magnus have a contest of his daughter’s choosing. Dwyla thought of a contest that Kestur could win against her father, ‘I will stay with whoever flies the highest, the fastest.’ She follows them up and witnesses her father’s defeat, only to see her victorious mate continue, unaware he had won, until his heart burst and he fell to the surface of the moon. Whenever a halo appears around the moon, it’s said to be her tears as she flies around it. | |

Pirate Booty | |
| Delasangre / int_864009e9 | comment |
Pirate Booty: Don Henri’s years leading a pirate fleet added to the DelaSangre family’s already considerable wealth. The rooms beneath Peter’s house are filled with gold and riches. | |

Mind Rape | |

Mind Rape: The real reason for Lorrel to bring Peter back to the Pelk with her. Under the guise of a healing circle, the li-srrynn sing a mesmerizing song that forces Peter to mate with Lorrel, allowing her to conceive a son. | |

Battle Amongst the Flames | |
| Delasangre / int_9303d6d1 | comment |
Battle Amongst the Flames: When the Pelk attack by sea in The Seadragon’s Daughter, Peter dumps gasoline into the harbor of his island and ignites it. Not only do the flames kill many of Mowdar’s troops, but its light exposes those already on land as Peter and Chloe empty shotgun after shotgun on them. When Peter is fighting to free Chloe in A Host of Dragons, he uses the smoke of the Everglades’ large wildfires to hide and surprise his attackers. | |

Quicksand Sucks: Sometimes, in the Everglades, Peter’s prey gets stuck in quicksand while fleeing him. Peter will fall into quicksand himself at the end of his fight with Aric, who will leave him there for dead. | |

Hand Cannon | |

Hand Cannon: When talons aren’t enough, Peter is more than willing to fight his fellow dragons with Uzis, rail guns, fifty caliber magnums, and even the cannons from his father’s pirate ships. In A Host of Dragons, Aric fires on Peter with a revolver while they’re in the air, operating the trigger with his claw. It takes several large bullets to kill even one of them. | |

Nailed to the Wagon: Peter and his father would seize winos and beggars around Miami when no better prey could be found, locking them in the cells beneath the house and forcing them to eat healthy meals until the alcohol and drugs left their wretched bodies. "A hundred percent of my guests have given up their addictions and not one of them has ever had the opportunity to backslide." | |

Slipping a Mickey: Jorge and Casey trick Peter into drinking a large amount of Dragon’s Tear wine. He's incapacitated while they kill his first wife, Elizabeth. In Dragon Moon, when he’s in the ceremony to marry Chloe, her parents don’t give him the Alchemist’s Powder to counter the poisonous effects of Death’s Rose. It’s a trick to allow their son Derek to impersonate him and steal his fortune. | |

Amoral Attorney | |

Amoral Attorney: Jeremy Tindall, and later his son Ian, who need to be kept under constant watch. The Tindall family has been serving the DelaSangres for generations, since the American government took control of Florida. At that time, Don Henri traveled to Washington and found the most corrupt (and therefore controllable) lawyer he could find, literally biting his hand off at the wrist the first time he tried to steal money from him. | |

Doppelgänger | |
| Delasangre / int_c4b09e97 | comment |
Doppelgänger: Not only can People of the Blood shift into human forms they craft for themselves, but they can mimic other humans and each other’s human forms as well. Derek impersonates Peter in Dragon Moon while he’s imprisoned in Morgan’s Hole, so he can transfer Peter’s corporate control to his father Charles. When Peter gets free and confronts Derek in Miami, trying to stop the deal, Charles’ lawyer in the meeting room turns out to be Charles himself. The Seadragon’s Daughter features a plot to frame Davidson for the disappearances around Caya DelaSangre, where Peter impersonates Davidson and allows himself to be shot by Santo’s girlfriend, a mole who’s in on the plan. | |
