"We're forever bound."
"And it's perfect."
"You are the best thing in my life, Hannah. The fact that I found you is a miracle." He tells me, a big frown on his face even though he does look happy about it.
"Me too."
I can't imagine what would have happened if he wasn't there. "Do you think the dragons are still alive?"
"They might be."
"I hope so."
"I will help you look."
"You will?" He looks at me with shock, as if he hadn’t expected it.”
"Of course."
"So many of my kind have been killed." He tells me softly, shaking his head back and forth, "Honestly, it's a little ridiculous because nothing says that killing a dragon will give you immortality. It's so stupid."
"You're immortal."
"Well, not quite."
"What does that mean?"
"We are immortal, but we can still be killed."
"I didn't know that."
"Very few people do."
"Will we stay in this village?"
"If you want."
I like that he is giving me the option, allowing me to stay here if I really want to. I don't know what I want at this point, wracking through my mind the possibilities. One thing is for sure that I'm not going to let him walk away from me. I'll do whatever I have to make sure our family stays together.
"I guess we should see what happens." I tell him, knowing that I can decide later.
I just hope that I don't regret it.
Chapter Seven
Hannah
Time has passed slowly over the past weeks as I have been healing. I keep going back and forth on what I want or if we should remain here. Onyx seems to be adapting well to coming to this land but a part of me worries that something is wrong. He seems to be getting thinner, and paler. I'm not sure if it is just my eyes playing tricks on me or what but I really don't like it. I keep staring at him like he's going to drop and pass out at any second. He just might if I'm being honest but I don't want to think about that. I keep looking at him though, worrying over him.
He glances over at me, raising an eyebrow, "is everything okay?"
"Yes, I'm fine."
He's holding the twins, and I can see that he's having a hard time breathing, almost like he is suffocating.
"Onyx."
"I'm fine." He insists, shaking his head, "Don't worry."
