After Threshing

Zara stared at Dain in shock as he looked at her.

'Its true.' Adish said.

'Why didn't you tell me?' Zara asked him.

'I would of along with the other two, but clearly your Squad Leader is already in a bad mood with your Wingleader. Can I eat him?' Adish asked.

'No. Your not eating leadership.' Zara said.

"Adish is mated to Garrick's and Bodhi's dragons." Zara said. Dain nodded.

"You should of let us be the ones that told her, Aetos. Not you." Garrick's voice came. Zara turned to see Garrick and Bodhi heading their way. "But instead you make a scene in front of others." Garrick didn't look happy, but it was more directed at Dain.

"Like you two are talking to her right now. You haven't talked to her." Dain said.

"It's none of your business why we aren't talking." Zara said. Bodhi looked at Zara.

"Garrick's right. We should of been the ones that tell her." Bodhi said. Dain glared at them.

"Your father is not gonna be happy when he finds out." Dain said, turning on Zara, who glared at him.

"So what. It's not like he forced me into the Rider Quadrant. Least I made it further then my brother." Zara said. Dain moved away. Zara looked at Garrick and Bodhi. Her eyes soften a bit seeing the two. Both didn't look angry at her. It was more towards Dain they were angry at. "Did you know? About what dragon was interested in me?" Garrick and Bodhi's eyes soften for Zara.

"No. We knew he was going to bond, but didn't know who." Bodhi said.

"Must of took interest in you with... everything." Garrick said.

"What does it mean with mated bonds. I didn't hear much about it." Zara said.

"Pretty much we can communicate with each other and our dragons and we'll all be stationed at the same outposts after graduation." Garrick said. Zara knew that their relationship and her choosing was gonna be more difficult with this now.

'You really gonna choose one over the other?' Adish asked.

'I don't think I could do it. I...'

'Your attracted to both. Cuir had the same issue and chose me and Chradh together. The Big One doesn't want to share, but I think he'll come around with. Your father might not like it, Fire One, but you will have support on some sides.' Adish said.

"Zara. We..." Bodhi started.

"Zara!" Violet called. Zara looked to see her Squad waving at her.

"Go. We'll talk another time." Garrick said. Zara gave the two a sad look and ran off.

"You think she'll choose one of us?" Bodhi asked.

"I don't know." Garrick said.

"If she's willing to have both of us. Will you be willing to share?" Bodhi asked, looking at Garrick. Garrick didn't answer.

Zara ran to her squad and Rhiannon pulled her into a hug.

"Did everyone get a dragon?" Zara asked.

"I bonded Tairn and Andarna." Violet said.

"I heard. Impressive." Zara said.

"The Green Daggertail! Feirge. And it was just easy." Rhiannon said. She sighed. "I saw her and just knew."
