Dragix

I mate with my little two-leg over and over again, throughout the day and night. I do not yet trust my wings to hold us, so I will have one more night with Charlie before I give her her freedom.

Guilt plagues me at the thought of her terror when I took her. Not just because I was a creature that she had never seen before but because she had already been abused.

I am…ashamed.

“You’re thinking about it again,” Charlie says softly, and I glance down at her. When the day began to heat, we moved down to what was once my parents’ room. The room is large enough for me to lie in dragon form, which would help me heal.

But I don’t want to miss a moment of this. Of lying with Charlie, my Charlie.

She sighs at my silence. “I forgive you, Dragix. You never hurt me, not even that night when I tried to escape.”

“I would never harm you.”

“I know.”

The sun is rising, the room turning a light gray. If I do not make myself take her soon, I will not be able to.

“We should go.”

Charlie sits up, her dark hair tousled around her beautiful face. “Are you sure? Can you fly?”

I nod. “We will go now.” Before I change my mind.

She suddenly looks so sad that I have to turn away.

“I will meet you upstairs,” I say.

“Okay.” Her voice is small. “If that’s what you want. I’ll go say bye to Maez.”

I nod and stalk out. Maez will not understand my choice. For a long moment, I regret ever seeing that ship fall from the sky. Regret ever being curious enough to fly toward it, to investigate the scent that drew me. If I had resisted the urge, I would have stayed in my winged form, never knowing any different. Never knowing this…loss.

But then you would not know Charlie.

She is wearing billowy dark-gray pants and a shirt the color of her eyes when she steps out onto the top of my mountain. She’s clutching a bundle in her arms, and I can smell my scent. My scales. She looks fragile, and sad, and so beautiful that I have to turn away as I shift into my winged form.

It hurts, but I embrace the pain. I would rather feel this pain than the pain of losing Charlie.

“Dragix…”

“We will go now.”

Her expression is sad when I finally look at her, and I have to glance away as a tear drips down her cheek.

“Okay,” she says softly. “You’re right.”

I help her onto my back and stretch my wings, ignoring the ache that lingers from the healing. I eat three udazin as we fly and immediately feel less drained.

And I take my little two-leg to her new home.
