59 Venus

I watched as the diplomats moved unto the ship. My males did not. They stared at me. "Get on the ship," I said. 

"No," Mensas said.

"We stay with you," Riota says as he moves closer. I sigh. 

"Stay close to the others then at least. Since we are camping here for the night we need to go hunting for food and I can not have you all following behind me alerting all the prey as I do." I turn with a huff and climb back onto Stormdawn. She needed no encouragement to take to the skies again. I would go hunting after I got some proper flight time in with Storm. My husbands would be none the wiser and I would finally get to eat the way I needed to. I rarely rode in dragon saddle but I was weak enough right now to not risk it. I wanted to fly through the storm as we used to but my need to eat drove me to push her over the forest. Storm huffed her annoyance once more but did as I directed.
