By the gods, Alton couldn’t believe it. Not only had Kayla shifted, but she looked like his matching mate, like birds of the same kind and color.

He kept reminding himself it was all allusion. That the witch Sigrid had cast this spell over Kayla. But could Kayla really fly? Probably like Brett in the beginning. A novice.

Since Olaf had offered for her to join them, Alton flew down to land in front of her and shifted. “Come fly with us.”

She shifted so she could answer him. “You are experts. I’m a beginner. I’d waste your time.”

Olaf was still hovering in place high in the sky, waiting for Alton to return.

“Come on. We’ll do some really easy routines with you so you can get a feel for it. Nothing difficult.”

The training from a real dragon would probably be better than one from a falcon fae.

“I don’t know. I don’t want you to get behind in your practice…”

“Come on. You don’t have to do it for long. Just a couple of simple flying routines. If the falcon fae was showing you how to do this, she won’t have taught you what you need to know. Falcons don’t fly exactly like we do. And she probably couldn’t help you with breathing fire either.”

She had to agree wholeheartedly with him there. All Sigrid could do was nod, while Tanya had just smiled at the sight of her flying in the clouds, casting fireballs into the atmosphere.

“Okay, but I’m warning you, I’m a beginner, beginner.” Like a one-day old dragonling only with a grown-up body.

Olaf landed on the ground in front of them.

“Don’t I know it. Come on. Let’s go,” Alton said.

She was so unsure about this, but better to make a fool of herself, she figured, in front of just these two dragons, rather than all the dragons at the game site. In fact, maybe Alton would feel sorry for her and give her the lockets and send her home instead. Not that she liked the idea anyone had to feel sorry for her, but if she could get her locket back and that made it happen…

She did a little flying leap into the air and flapped her wings until she was airborne. She realized the guys were watching her from the ground still, arms folded across their chests, frowning. Great. She’d done it all wrong. But she didn’t know a better way to take off than that.

The two guys talked to each other while she was in a holding pattern, waiting for them to do something. Olaf nodded, then Alton said, “I’m coming up. I’m going to show you some moves and Olaf’s going to tell you what’s going on or you might not understand.”

She nodded.

“He’s going to show you some basic moves. You need to feel the currents beneath your wings, work with them, not against them,” Olaf said.

Easy for him to say. He’d been flying all his life.

When Sigrid had flown with her, it was one thing. She was smaller than any dragon, in human form with big wings, but hers hadn’t been nearly as big as dragon wings.
