The clouds were like a wet breeze as the dragon glided through, using the wind to lessen the effort it took to fly . The deep gray dragon carried a saddle and two riders on his back, Kyera nested between Clovis"s thighs, his hands resting on her hips for stability . A updraft tilted the dragon into a quick turn and he followed her lead leaning into it as the dragon corrected the motion . It had taken him a few hours to get use to the sensation of leaning into a turn, it felt as though he was going to fall off . However, his wife"s laughter and delight had made the experience less frightening and more playful .
As they came out of the latest turn, Kyera turned her head to look back at him, her golden eyes sparkling . Her high ponytail dancing in the wind like a streamer beside them . He smiled at how carefree she was, what he didn"t expect were for his senses to suddenly fill with her . Her lips pressed to his erased the world around them, well the air since there wasn"t much else to experience this high up . The intensity of her warm woodland scent penetrating every fiber of his being . Her tongue teased at his lips till he opened his mouth and the kiss deepened . He could feel himself reacting to her, d.a.m.n his self control was weakening . He wanted her… here in this saddle .

However before he could act on it she broke the kiss and smiled at him . He was focused on her, the intense pa.s.sion in his eyes zeroed in on her face . He didn"t notice the familiar trees around them, or the fact the wind wasn"t rushing by . She giggled and swung her leg over so she sat side saddle in front of him .
"Landing can be the worst part so I wanted to distract you . " Kyera explained before motioning to the ground . Clovis looked over and wondered for a moment if they could go back up and circle for a while… it didn"t sound like a bad idea . Kyera however was already preparing to slip off but he stopped her .
Clovis sighed at the lost moment, but slipped off the dragon"s back anyway . Now dismounted he turned and lifted his hands to catch her . Kyera slid forward and let herself fall into his hands . His hands sliding from her hips up to her waist as he guided her safely down, his eyes appreciating her form . His wife is the most beautiful woman he had ever met, the thought was fleeting, as he had to let her go .
"Are you excited to see our baby girl?" Kyera asked as she started unlocking the saddle restraints, giving the dragon more freedom . The saddle stayed in place but much looser than when they flew . It was all controlled by a complicated system of locks and pulleys . A few loosened spindles and the apparatus suddenly became much less of a burden . "Thank you, Lovely . " She gently laid her forehead to the dragon"s . He blew a warm puff of smoke over her, in love and appreciation .
"You are very welcome, My Lady . I will fly with Ivory above . If you have need of me just call . " Ember replied and Kyera nodded, taking Clovis" hand and moving away so the dragon could take flight .
"Be safe my Loves . " Kyera called after him as he rejoined his sister in the air . Clovis sighed, wrapping a arm obsessively around her waist .
"Let"s get back . Raina must be worried sick . We were only supposed to be gone for a week . " Clovis reminded her and Kyera brightened considerably .
"Yes that is true . Come on, the palace isn"t far!" Kyera"s excitement was contagious as the pair hurried in the direction of the Shadow Vale Palace . He couldn"t help but chuckle as he shared in her eagerness .
As they neared the palace, a pair of guards stopped them, wanting to see identification but Kyera was having none of it . She held up the royal crest and the men stepped aside . After the second set of guards she just held it over her head as they ran . Maids and servants stopped and stared at the pair walking through seeming rather exasperated .
