Demon Capital, Avalon – Inside Asher's Bedchamber
Lucy sat on the edge of the massive bed, absently running her fingers along the silk sheets when Asher appeared.
She stood up and greeted him with a kiss.
When they pulled apart, her hands lingered around his neck, fingers tracing slow circles against his skin.
"Lucy, I need to isolate myself,"
"Why?" she asked, confused by the sudden announcement.
"I hit a bottleneck. I've been growing stronger lately thanks to all the training, so now I need to consolidate my bloodline."
Lucy only furrowed her brows but didn't ask any more questions. She didn't really understand how a dragon's bloodline worked.
"I might be gone for a month, so take this. These are additional notes you need to read so I can help you build a better magic body. Don't worry, I revised the whole thing."
"Thank you," she accepted the book with both hands.
