I fought the urge to gag on the stench of burnt flesh, unwilling to give my torturers the satisfaction. Sarah, however, found herself retching on the ashen ground at my feet. Frank held her hair back, his face a blank slate of despair as he stared at the pile of bodies before us. Neither of... Continue Reading →
Allie’s heart raced, her thoughts scattered despite re-playing the scene in her mind. Even now she found herself trembling, all too aware of what Claire could do if she was set free. She would never look at a dragon the same way again. Hundreds murdered right in front of her and she did nothing. Even... Continue Reading →
Ashes fell all around us, our only light emanating from the burning wagons. I wore no chains, but I was a prisoner all the same, surrounded by a ring of Immortals. However, their attention was not on me, as all of their eyes were focused on their leaders, each awaiting their orders. Behind us, the... Continue Reading →

All five dragons drifted closer, slowing down so Serenity’s commands could be more easily heard over the flapping of their wings.

I wasn’t tied. There was no need for anything like that. Four dragons and... Continue Reading →
Allie flew in front of Patty, leading her to the caravan. With the wind whistling in her ears, it was impossible for them to have a conversation, let alone a tricky one. The closer they got to the caravan, the more Allie regretted approaching Patty at all. If a battle broke out while Patty and... Continue Reading →
Claire refused to sit still, flexing her wings in frustration. “It’s okay, girl,” Allie whispered, running her fingers across the scales on Claire’s neck. “They’re not going to hurt us.” “Not if you’re true to your word,” said Brianna as she stared at the clouds brushing against the mouth of the cave. The Immortals had... Continue Reading →
“How do you know what she’s saying?” Patty asked as she stroked Jade’s neck. I let out a yawn as I pulled bones out of what was left of a grizzly.
