Lind returned to the cavern but had not even fully stepped in when a kick slammed into his head. He was off balance and totally unprepared!
He suddenly recalled where his temper came from. Both of his mothers were not to be crossed!
"Where did you go?!" Her face was flush in her anger but he only looked up and smiled widely at her. Shock flashed before she backed up and carefully studied him. He rubbed his cheek as a welt briefly rose before his draconic healing took over.
She firmly grasped his hair and pulled him down to the floor.
"Apologize." A single word but it held a level of authority that would put True Lords to shame.
"This ungrateful son most humbly apologizes for being a stubborn fool of unparalleled proportions." He put all the sincerity into his words before he glanced up and let gratitude flow from them. "Thank you for not giving up on me."
Tears formed in her eyes before a harsh chop cracked on top of his head.
