The skies were mostly clear and what clouds there were provided just enough cover that the forest below took on a mottled appearance, trailing their shadows lazily along by the wind which offered no trouble to the dragon I was riding. I know that...
Seven Days Chapter 4
"Does this world have a name?" I asked, wiping my mouth with my shirt to clear away the remains of the feast I had just enjoyed. "Not that I am aware of." Arh replied. "If this world has a name then the gods haven't seen fit to inform us of it." ...
Seven Days Chapter 5
I slept like a log that night. I don't recall if I dreamed of anything because it felt like the hours of the night passed in an instant. Opening my eyes I was reminded that I had, indeed, fallen asleep next to a dragon. When I managed to clear...

Arh was staring off into the sky. Nestled as I was in his arm with my head on his shoulder, we lay together while the high of the best sex either of us have had in years faded from heaving embraces to tender stroking. This moment in calm silence,...
Seven Days Chapter 2
The dragon and I talked for what felt like hours that day, and the first thing I learned (as it would have been rude to converse without a formal introduction) was that his name was Arh'eoban, and he was around two-hundred and fifty years old. That...

"I do not think I have much in the way of clothing." Arh piped up as a furrow became rooted on his brow. "It isn't all that necessary to get dressed up in your best clothing." I said, trying to assuage his growing anxiety. "Besides, I didn't bring...
Seven Days Chapter 7
