Although my physique was on my mattress, my desires took me into the sky on the again of a gorgeous, silver-scaled dragon.

Days handed.

I ate, drank, and slept. Once I was acutely aware, it was just for a couple of minutes. Between Vi, Randa, and Eli, there was at all times somebody ushering me again to mattress if I obtained up for greater than the time it took to make use of the toilet.

My feelings leveled out a bit as I slept, so I didn’t a lot as attempt to keep awake.

I lastly obtained up for good early one morning. Padding out of my room quietly, I discovered Eli loud night breathing on the sofa. Randa and Vi have been each in their very own rooms, additionally asleep.

A drowsy look on the clock informed me it was solely 4 AM.

I brushed a number of greasy waves from my eyes, then slipped out by means of the entrance door.

There was a balcony a number of ft to the left, the place I might stand and look out on the sky.

I took in a number of deep breaths of air.

It smelled fallacious.

Not just like the forest—not just like the cabin.

Not just like the place I’d come to consider as house.

I lifted August’s shirt to my nostril and inhaled deeply.

My abdomen clenched.

His scent was gone from the material.

I missed it.

With all that sleep and meals leveling me out, I might lastly suppose rationally once more.

Eli was proper. It wasn’t out of character for August to depart and not using a goodbye if he’d determined he was coming again. And he wouldn’t have left me with out the cabin, and cash to guard me.

And he positively wouldn’t have bitten me if he wasn’t coming again for me.

However he’d bitten me.

And I mattered to him.

So he would come again for me when he might.

The entrance door opened once more, slightly louder, and Eli got here staggering out. He set free a relieved breath when he noticed me looking over the balcony. “Thought I’d misplaced you once more,” he mumbled. “August would kill me.”

He wouldn’t, however he positively would’ve been pissed.

“I’m superb,” I stated, turning my head again to the sky.

August would’ve referred to as me out for the lie.

He would’ve informed me we have been speculated to be a workforce.

However he wasn’t there.

My throat swelled, however no tears fell.

Eli stepped up beside me, leaning towards the railing too.
