Chapter 141: The Plan

[Vereena]

Callum asks for my gown to be removed. I don't know what the purpose of it, but it's none of my concern. I have no use for it anyways. I have now changed into my usual dress I left months ago.

Tired from the nonstop travel, I told everyone for my leave and took my comfort back to our quarters, seeing that everything hadn't changed, aside from the huge pot where the egg was supposed to be. Instead, it was replaced with an open box when some of my clothes were bundled into a small makeshift bed for my dragon.

I supposed he's a male. I just have a haunch.

He purred when I lowered him into the box. He circled for a moment before curling into sleep while I stroked the bony ridges of his head. Such an adorable little creature, but soon enough, he would be larger than the mountains and be feared by everyone.

"Caileag?"

The door opens, and Callum stride in. One thing that I noticed is that he was no longer wearing his eyepatch.
