Charlotte: Fated to the White Dragon
I open my mouth to respond, but he leans in, so close that I can see the faint flecks of silver linings in his blue irises, like frost caught in firelight.
“You see, Lynn…” His voice dips into a near-whisper, smooth yet humming with quiet intensity. His smile fixed in place. “…fate can be cruel, but it is never random. People think they meet by chance, but they don’t. There’s always… a reason... a funny one."
The way he says reason makes something cold and curious stir in my stomach.
His gaze doesn’t waver. “And when fate creates a path…” His lips curve further. “…we take it, no matter the costs.”
