Your Secret Lover, Solur

You approach the dragon slowly, expecting it to be one of your tormentors; maybe Freklin or Enim, you doubt either would find it below themselves to attack you in your home. But you find it is neither tormentor as the stranger spots you. No, you realize that your visitor as he steps into moonlight is Solur.

You had been in love with Solur since you were a hatchling. He was the perfect specimen when it came to dragons; tall, strong, dark blue scales with fiery red eyes. His wings could easily hide the sun and he was silent enough for his pray to never know what was coming... And he never has shown any interest in you other than the rare moments you have been alone with him.

In front of the others, his dismisses you without a word, though he has taunted you into hiding from the world more than once. He has made it clear in front of the rest of your kind that he wants nothing to do with you, that you are worthless and unlovable to all dragonkind. But when you are alone with him, with only the sun, the moon, and the stars to watch over you... You are his world.

He admits his love clearly and without hesitation. He presents you with the brightest gems and the best of meals. He's made it clear, over and over again, that he would have chosen you to be his bondmate if it would be allowed... But he has been bonded with Freklin, a more suitable match for such an impressive dragon. He still sneaks out to be with you whenever he can.

Normally you would be thrilled to see him, **** for the little time you can spend with him before his life drags him away. But tonight... His face is cold and indifferent, like he doesn't know what to make of you. "Solur?" you ask, approaching him slowly, "Is something wrong?"

"Where were you?" he asks, not bothering to greet you, "You were nowhere in the valley, I searched high and low, so don't bother lying to me about that. What did you do?"

You are startled by his tone. He's never spoken to you like that unless it's in front of the other dragons... The two of you are clearly alone. Did you scare him?

"I ventured into the human realm." you admit, standing your ground, "The centaurs spoke of a human medicine that could save our kind."

Solur seemed emotionless, but you could hear his slight gasp. "Vekin, what did you do?"

"I allowed myself to be injected after taking a human form." you admit, standing tall, "It worked, they confirmed I now have the ability to bear children."

He silently stares at you. "I did it to save our kind." you say, worried he would shun you, "Our allies are too busy rebuilding their own populations to allow us to breed with their new breeders and we only have so much time before certain bloodlines are lost. If this is successful, if I can carry a clutch to term and hatch healthy dragons, maybe we can convince the others to get the medicine as well. We can save the dragons Solur, I can bring about the next generation... If you'll help me."
