Charlotte: Fated to the White Dragon
I get the words out, tryin’, but failing, to hide the tremble in my voice.
He doesn’t answer. Rather, he just steps forward into the “sunlight” and lets those strange rays hit him. That's when I get a proper look at him.
His skin's pale as porcelain, like if you poked him too hard he’d crack. Thin, aye, but there’s muscle under it, wiry and springy. His hair’s a messy halo of golden curls, cherub-like, but his eyes...
There's no irises. Just two black pits ringed with blood-red veins that twitch faintly.
