He looked down at the bed. Their mother lay there, resting on her side.
“What happened?”
“When you didn’t return, she… I don’t think she could tolerate losing another.”
Jason made his way around the bed. The room had a sickly odor to it, and his heart ached at what his sister had gone through in the time he had been gone.
“Mother?”
He reached for her hands, squeezing them. Would they be too cold, as well?
He didn’t think that much had changed about him.
“It’s Jason. I’m back.”
“Jason?” She blinked open her eyes. As she did, she searched his eyes with hers, and for a moment, he thought that he noticed silver within hers, but then they cleared. “Is it really you?”
Jason smiled. “It’s me, Mother. I’m here.”
“How?”
He glanced over at his sister before looking back at his mother. “It doesn’t matter. I’m back.”
Taking her hands, sitting next to his mother, he couldn’t help but wonder how long he’d be able to stay.
He intended to remain, but would the Dragon Souls return and force him away?
Those were questions for another time. For now, he was back. He was home. And he would be here with his family. Eventually, he would have to tell them what really happened to his father. Why he seemed to know about magic and what he’d kept from them. Then Jason would have to decide what else to do. Somehow, he knew dragons would be a part of it.
The Dragon Misfits continues with book 2: Iron Dragon.
