Running… running, so scared and alone. So alone with no recognition of where I was or where I going to. The only thing that I knew was if I slowed down, or stopped, I would die. I was so frightened, so terrified words could not describe. The darkness engulfed me and I could not see, but I didn’t care, I just had to get away. I just didn’t know what I was going to run into… or what was going to run into me. Whatever it was that was chasing me wasn’t giving up easily, so I just kept running. It was so cold, so cold that I couldn’t feel anything apart from the cold biting at my face, eating away at my skin, stabbing me.

Aubrey has spent her life trying to free herself from a curse. While others waited, she took action. They may not have been the best actions, but they got her closer to her goal. Nathaniel never took anything in life seriously. He lived as if it would all end tomorrow. He never planned ahead, and never thought about his future. That all changed, though, when he began to care too much about a woman who had too many problems, a powerful family, and a dragon who hated him. (cover by FreesiaLockheart)
