[ Seraphina's POV ]
"Can you stop talking about the ridiculous marriage nonsense?" I asked Graike.
"Nonsense?" He put his hand on his chest dramatically. "Dragons are serious about treasures and women. And when a woman is a treasure, we are laser-focused."
God help me with this one. Stay firm, Serina. I need to hold my ground without losing my temper.
"I refuse to be your wife forty-something."
"Forty-seven," he corrected me. "Would you prefer another number?"
"This is NOT about a number! You have a full harem of females down there. Why are you stuck on me?"
"Do you know that I didn't take a wife since you rode me?"
"Don't tell me you fell in love."
"Infatuated is the word," he said with a dreamy smile. "No woman compares to you, Seraphina. Aldus agrees."
Graike is cooperating... for now.
