บท 151: Chapter 151 Prove your worth

Kyra swallowed hard. "I didn't mean to intrude. I was just looking for shelter."

The dragon's cold laugh echoed around her. "Shelter in my territory comes at a price, little thing. Do you think you can pay it?"

"I... I don't have anything to give," Kyra stammered, feeling her fear rise.

He leaned closer, his hot breath washing over her. "Then you will have to prove your worth in other ways. For now, you stay. And remember, do not try to escape again."

Before Kyra could react, the dragon gently but firmly picked her up with his mouth and placed her on his back. The scales were surprisingly warm, a stark contrast to the icy surrounding.

He took off into the sky, and Kyra clung to him, her heart racing.

The flight was both terrifying and exhilarating. She could feel the power in his wings with each beat, the wind rushing past her.

As they soared over the mountains, Kyra couldn't help but feel a strange sense of awe.
