Going To See Draven

Ember had a relaxing time with her teacher after her first lesson. They had tea and snacks together in the garden as they discussed various things about the fire element and it added to whatever little knowledge Ember had about her power. She even got to hear the woman promise that she would show Ember her true form once she performed well enough, making the human girl eager to show satisfying results in their next lessons.

Once the Fire Fae left, Ember continued to sit in the gazebo of the garden. Her thoughts gradually shifted from her lesson towards the King. She wondered why he had left in such a hurry. 

'Is he avoiding me? Is it because I have not been a good mate to him? It's true though—he found an amazing teacher for me, and yet I have been unable to fulfill any of my duties of being his family.' 

Aside from saying 'thank you', Ember had not even shown him her gratitude for the things she had received so far. She's really been a terrible mate.
