Chapter 11

Astra

Flying was my new favorite thing. Sure, I’d hated it when I’d felt like Celedon was holding me against my will. But everything had changed. Enveloped by the sky, I looked down over the treetops. Magic was real, and I was riding on a freaking dragon. The experience was beyond my imagination. It was better than chocolate.

I was determined to enjoy every moment, because it wouldn’t last forever. Sure, Celedon could tell me that no one escaped Dragon Island. But I’d never been one to listen to the limits other people put on me. Give me a boundary and I’ll break it, just to prove I can.

This time, like everything else lately, was different. After that mind-blowing kiss, after all the flying, well, I wasn’t just going to miss the magic of this place. I might just miss Celedon, too. There was a feeling of loss clinging to my chest, but I knew it was stupid. I hadn’t even left yet.

My focus needed to be on enjoying the moment while I lived it. And on finding my dad.

Celedon rose higher, leaving behind the trees. Higher, and higher, until there was no question where he intended to land - the top of the mountain at the center of the island. It made sense when I thought about it. The sky dragon lived at the top of the highest peak.

We turned, shifting my weight a bit. My nerves kicked up, and I threw my arms around Celedon’s neck. Even as he turned and slowed, he kept us relatively even, careful so I wouldn’t fall. His wings tilted as we approached the rock face. Quicker than I expected, we landed.

I climbed down from Celedon, onto a cliff. The stone was slick like a marble floor, instead of rough like natural stone, and it attached to an opening in the mountainside.

“What have you brought for me, brother?” The voice was deep and startling.

I hadn’t realized anyone else was here with us. I turned and looked to the opening of the cave, but couldn’t make anything out. The sun was too bright and the cave too dark. I wondered how deep the cave went. Given the expansive tunnel system of Celedon’s place, there was probably a lot more underground living space here, too.

Celedon stepped up beside me, in his deliciously nude human form. I tried not to stare as he pulled his pants out of his “pocket.” Instead of the pants he’d been wearing, he pulled out a tiny shred of cotton he called clothes, a loin cloth like he’d worn before. He tied the cloth around his waist and looked up. I followed his gaze and found another ripped AF guy perched on the edge of the mountain like a freaking bird.

“I’ve brought you nothing, brother,” Celedon said. “You can’t have her.”

Me? This guy thought I was a gift?

Kaelestis dove from the mountaintop and landed in front of us. Aside from being muscular giants, the two men looked nothing alike. Celedon had light hair, tan skin, soft green eyes, and an almost gentle way about him.
