A Breath of New Life

Zarya

Caelurion is still holding me in his arms when my mother, Naiara, and Ryker come flying in fast. My father drops off my mother’s back before the three dragons shift and land gracefully on the ground.

“What happened?” my father says. He obviously wants to pull me into his arms, but Caelurion hasn’t let go of me yet.

“King Morvath,” I say.

“The one whose son you killed?” my mother asks.

“Yes."
