Kayda managed a small nod in her battered state, giving Alex the silent permission he had waited for all this time.

Kayda was half-human, half-dragon. Her features were notable, with pointed dragon ears, beautiful shimmering wings and a long, powerful tail. Mixed with her human features, this made her a target for dragon hunters around the valley, and also attracted dragon tamers, whose goal was to calm dragons and prevent them from destroying villages and hurting people.

When she met dragon tamer Alex, or should we say she was kidnapped by him, she was filled with hatred. His goal was to calm her instincts, in hopes she would stop attacking innocent bystanders, and burning villages to the ground, but all Kayda wanted to do was roam free.
