"Ugh…" Hera grunted, feeling a little dizzy at the bouncy movement she was in. With a throbbing head, she forced herself to open her eyes. Her vision was blurry, only getting clearer after a few careful blinks.
'Huh?'
Deep lines appeared between her brows as she lifted her head, only to see Dragon's lower face. Only then did Hera realize he was carrying her in her arms after she suddenly lost consciousness of this knock on her back.
"You!" Hera clutched Dragon's chest on instinct, wide-eyed. "Where are you taking me!? Let me go!"
Despite the ache on the back of her head and her throbbing head, Hera threw a weak punch at his chest. However, Dragon was unfazed. If anything, she only felt his grip around her tighten.
"I'll deal with you later, Hera," warned Dragon under his breath, not gazing down at her as he approached the end of the west garden. "Don't rush it now."
