Chapter One
I pressed my cheek against Raolcan’s searing scales. On a night as brisk as this, it was hard not to revel in his warmth.
Meanwhile, you’re chilling me to the core.
I laughed sleepily and nuzzled in closer. In the week since we’d passed First Flight, I’d been sneaking up here to the stables every night to sleep curled against Raolcan. It felt safer here.
It is safer. I will keep you safe, spider. You can count on me.
“And you can count on me,” I whispered, wary of the stable guards making their rounds. If they saw me, I would likely be in a lot of trouble, although I hadn’t been caught yet.
Never, not in my wildest dreams, had I imagined I’d be best friends with a dragon. I was trying to enjoy every moment of it that I could sneak because I’d hardly had a moment with Raolcan during school hours - beyond cleaning his stables.
“We need to rush your studies,” Grandis Elfar had said on the dawn of the day we passed First Flight. “There will be time enough to learn to ride on the journey ahead.”
“Journey?” Savette had asked, never afraid to speak up to an instructor. She tossed her perfect silvery hair and held her chin high.
“We won’t speak of that yet,” Grandis Elfar had said. “For now, we have exactly one week to cram four months worth of geography, history and social training into your heads and then test you on it and I swear to the moon and the wide-open skies, I will not have any of you fail to learn what you need. You’re Inducted now!”
