Chapter 9 (2/2)

I pressed ainst his fine and icy scales: “Fruu, I’ive me?”

Fruys continued to stay silent, but he gracefully alighted on the

rooftop

I tilted my head and pressed my lips to the scales on his neck My voice was muffled as I spoke with difficulty: “Fruu…”

I thought the dragon race was very strange They only wanted the daughters of kings and lords and nobody else, but I ought to respect their culture I thus tried to explain to him: “Fruys, ry then I have no one else to give you but myself Is that okay?”

I quietly called his na around…”

It was then that I felt the weight on hten, and I was picked up and thrown onto his back

As eaved through the clouds with ood between us now

The as fierce at this high altitude, so I lowered hed

Without thinking, I suddenly blurted out the reason for this entire affair and my own personal wish—

“Fruu, don’t leave me, okay?”

The as so strong that I couldn’t tell if he heard me
