Chapter 58: A Cave In Her Room

Rose stood in her room, hands on her hips, glaring at Cyra, who sat in the middle of the chaos like a guilty puppy—or rather, a guilty baby dragon.

Her room looked like a tornado had decided to camp out there, with clothes, books, and random trinkets scattered everywhere.

"Cyra," Rose began, pinching the bridge of her nose, "what if someone had found you? What would you have done? Waved at them before they tossed you onto a spit?!"

Her tone wasn't angry, just dripping with exasperation. Deep down, her heart was pounding at the thought of her beloved dragon being discovered.

Cyra tilted her tiny head, her golden eyes wide and brimming with something dangerously close to crocodile tears.

"Maybe you do want to be roasted, huh?" Rose continued, pointing an accusing finger at the little troublemaker. She wasn't truly mad—how could she be?
