I will love you forever.
After your travels through the library, I suspect you knew some or most of the major points in this letter. I could see you piecing things together with each new book. I remember the look on your face when you realized my fate. I know that you are trying to help me right now, but I just want you to find your freedom and live the rest of your life in happiness. There is nothing here but that ruined throne Dolion spoke of.
Fly free, my little dragon. I hope to meet you in the next life.
Forever at your command,
Nyfain
P.S. When you do get to freedom, send some new books, would you? The library needs a refresh.
I smiled through my tears. Yes, I’d pieced most of it together. Though I could scarcely believe it, all the signs of us being true mates were there, like his delicious, comforting smell, the four-way bond, our animals’ desperation for each other, and his dragon’s primal breeding frenzy. I’d also read the signs of what I might be.
But hearing him say it…
Tears dripped down my face. My heart ached.
Part of me wished we could’ve imprinted and ended the curse. We’d been so close! But of course that would’ve been an opening for the demon king to march his troops in and finally take Nyfain out. It was essential that we didn’t.
Still…I couldn’t help feeling the longing.
I folded up the note and held it to my chest as I watched the dark shores of my new home draw nearer.
I would need to survive the next leg of my journey so I could get back to Nyfain and finish what we’d started.
