บท 64: Flying For The First Time

Deciding he had his share of fun, he tightened his hold around her, embracing her frail body to protect her from the wind for when he moved. 

Swoosh!

When Ember took a peek, she saw those majestic ashy grey wings flapping with great force. They were swiftly flying over the forest. 

She was flying…

For the first time, she got to experience how it felt to fly like a bird. His beautiful wings looked strong as if they could cut through even the harshest winds of the strongest storm. The winged man glided over the vast forest below the cliff, passing through a number of villages and cities, before soaring up in the sky as he headed back towards where she came from. 

Ember found her heart racing in excitement the entire time, and when they reached the cliff and stopped under that ancient tree with lantern-like fruits, only then did she calm down.
