[Vereena]
With my little dragon cradled in my arms, Callum lifted my body and mounted me into a coal-black horse before leaping behind me and kicking the wild beast sending us into a gallop.
"I heard you've become a king yourself," I say loudly, still trying to process everything. That Callum finally is here, taking me away again, and this time I came with him on my own accord.
Not only that. He had made quite a name for himself. A reputation that is spreading worldwide.
"I've realized I didn't need the forbidden treasure to be one. You are enough to do me things I never thought I could."
My heart instantly fluttered from his response, and if my dragon felt my emotions, it purred in my arms, stretching its neck and brushing the top of its head underneath my jaw.
He moves like a cat. A clingy cat.
"Have you given it a name?"
"I reserved that privilege to you. We'll talk when we get on the ship."
