And she wasn’t happy about it.

Her dragon growled.

Kymri understood that her control was tenuous. If the dragon decided to overrule her, she could, and she would. It was best to live in harmony, compromise. And she supposed the dragon had decided Kymri had been in the cockpit for long enough.

Just give me some time.

Dragon huffed.

Please.

Dragon groaned, and Kymri accepted that as a concession.

What do I do now?

In such a short time, her life had been turned upside down and she didn’t know what she wanted really. Well kind of. But she didn’t know what to do about it, how to reconcile what she really wanted now, that she hadn’t known she wanted, with what her society would allow.

She closed her eyes and drew a deep breath, to cleanse her muddled mind and focus.

What do I want? What did I want? No, what do I want now?

I want Jori.

She took a deep breath, letting it out slowly and shakily.

She’d never ‘wanted’ a man before.

She did now.

Next?

I want to stay with my people.

That hadn’t changed.

She breathed a little easier.

And.

I want to keep a child and grow a relationship with him or her.

Wow.

Never in a million generations would she have thought she’d ever, ever admit that.

Her dragon purred.

How can I have all of these things at once? They don’t work together. I have to choose.

We shall see.

What do you know that I don’t?

Now that you are listening to me, you’ll learn so much more about yourself that you didn’t allow room for in the past.

I see.

Kymri, we are more than duty and talons and guardians and protectors.
