“What?” She spat. “You mean, I can ride you?”
“In more ways than one,” I said with a wink.
Chapter 3: Rosie
This was insane, absolutely insane. I was getting on the back of a dragon, a real, fire-breathing dragon. Well, I didn’t know for certain whether he could breathe fire or not but he certainly looked like he could.
“Now, I want you to hold on,” Myles’ oh-so-sexy voice came filtering through my head. I jumped, startled, wondering how on earth he had managed to do this. Instead of feeling weird like I thought it would, it was insanely intimate, like he was right there beside me – inside me.
“What am I supposed to hold on to?” I asked aloud since I didn’t know how the whole telepathy thing worked.
“Any one of my scales should do,” he answered again in that insanely alluring voice of his. I swear I’ve never heard a sexier voice in all my life. This guy could have had a hell of a career as a phone sex operator, if he wasn’t a dragon, that is.
His wings started to move so I quickly grabbed hold of the closest scale I could find. It felt like glass, making it difficult to get a proper grip. Terrified I would fall off, I tightened my legs around his body like I was straddling a horse only much, much bigger.
And then we were off.
The air rushed under his leathery wings, lifting him toward the clouds. I swear they must have been as long as a football field, if not longer.
“This is insane…” I mumbled to myself.
“Enjoying yourself?” He asked. “Because this is just the beginning.” He pivoted to the left and all of a sudden, we were doing a loop. For a split second, it felt like I was free falling but the G-force was enough to keep me in place. “I bet you never expected to be riding on the back of a dragon, huh?”
“You can say that again.”
“Huh? Why should I waste my breath?”
“Sorry… it’s a figure of speech.” It was then that I realized that I was talking to him without actually saying a word and it was sort of freaking me out.
“Peek under my wing,” he instructed, as he dove to a lower altitude.
I was scared to move but, nevertheless, I obeyed his command. The scene below us took my breath away. A lake I had never seen before twinkled in the sunlight like it had been draped over with a blanket made of diamonds. Around it was an array of different wildflowers that swayed in the wind like they were performing some sort of synchronized dance.
“Do you mind if we stop down there for a moment?”
“Certainly,” he answered. Despite his great size, he landed gracefully on the edge of the water. Carefully, I slid down his back, but I didn’t stick the landing. Luckily, his tail was there to catch my fall. It steadied me and then wrapped around my torso. Before I could say anything in protest, it lifted me off the ground and placed me gently on the top of his head.
“Wow… it’s beautiful up here…” I scrambled to retrieve my phone so I could snap a picture. This was the perfect scene for a project I was working on. With this as inspiration, it would certainly make my life much easier.
“I’m going to transform.” He said by way of announcement, and before I could even register what he had said, he was a man once more. He was holding me in his arms, a charming grin plastered on his face.
Did I mention how attractive this guy was? I mean seriously. Take any male model and then multiply his hotness by a hundred and you'll still only get a fraction of what this guy was capable of. Just standing next to him was such a rush. I could only imagine what it would be like to fall into bed with him… probably fucking awesome.
“What are you thinking about?” he asked, leaning down so our lips were even closer together. I could now feel his warm breath against my mouth. If he kept this up… I didn’t know what would happen.
“Oh… nothing.” I blushed even harder. At this point, it felt like my cheeks were going to melt right off my face.
“I doubt that.” he said, with a devilish grin.
I was about to say something to counter his claim when I felt my smartwatch start to vibrate. My eyes widened. “I need to get home or I’m never going to finish that project in time!” Dragons aside I still had real-world responsibilities to take care of. As much as I wanted to stay in this fantasy, I couldn’t.
“Don’t worry. I’ll get you there in just a minute.”

Myles wasn’t lying either. We arrived in my backyard in just under sixty seconds. I opened the backdoor and stepped inside. To my surprise, Myles remained on the steps.
“Aren’t you coming?”
