Blood of the Chosen

I did not fall for long before a pair of strong arms caught me mid air. I was effortlessly positioned on the dragon, he effortlessly secured me, all with a big, sickening smile.

"See. That was not so hard, was it?"

The dragon descended and Puff followed after us as quickly as he could but he could not keep up. When we finally reached the ground, I tried to get out of his grip as quickly as I could but I could not move. His hold over me was too strong.

"Are you still not going to ask me for my name, dragon thief?" He smiled.

"I am not a thief. I just happened to stumble upon him while I was up there." I pointed to the sky. "I do not belong here. Let me go."

He ignored me and dismounted first, then he reached up and lifted me off the dragon, all effortlessly, all with a smile plastered on his face.
