Chapter 160

AUDREY WAITED ON THE OTHER side of the door with Nnelg.

'Your Highness.' The dragon bowed, the blue of his scales shimmered in the afternoon light streaming through a window. I stopped and looked at Nnelg, then knelt so I sat at his level. The dragon's dark eyes widened. 'Majesty?'

'Nnelg.' I swallowed hard, forcing back the bile that threatened. 'You know we're going away for a bit. I need you to watch Lucky and Audi, okay?'

He nodded earnestly, his long tail swishing around him. 'Of course, Your Highness.'

I smiled stiffly. 'Good. Now. In the possibility that we're unable to return, for-sometime, would you look after them? I'm going to ask Ada as well, but I know how well you do this.

Nnelg nodded again. 'Yes, absolutely.'

'Good.' I stood. 'Now, let's go see Ada.'

We ran down the closest turret, all the way to the bottom floor. I paused at the bottom to give Audi a hug and ruffled the fur around her ears.

'How are you doing little miss?' I crooned.
