928 She Is The Bes

Yabemiya's smile froze. The bliss in her eyes gave way to fear.

Elizabeth looked embarrassed. She didn't remember wrapping her arms around Yabemiya, but there they were.

They were both well-endowed, and they were so close that Elizabeth's breasts were pressing against those of Yabemiya, big, soft, and warm. They had been like this for God knows how long. Elizabeth blushed fiercely.

She would have pushed Yabemiya away, but the half-dragon was clearly struck dumb with fear, so she just lay there, at a loss for what to do next.

By then Yabemiya had regained her composure. She was surprised when she saw Elizabeth's red face and heard her heart beating like crazy. Could it be she's nervous too?

"How long do you plan on staying in my arms?" Elizabeth asked with a hint of anger in her voice.

"Ah!" Yabemiya jumped out of the bed immediately and fell back two steps, her face red like a tomato. "I'm so sorry, Miss Elizabeth! I don't know how I ended up sleeping in your arms. Please forgive me!"

Elizabeth sat up and turned to look in the direction of the window. "I'm thirsty."

"Oh, I'll go get some water for you." Yabemiya put on her slippers and went to the living room hastily.

A smile touched the corners of Elizabeth's mouth. She stretched, her pajamas showing off her lovely figure. I can't remember the last time I slept so well. It must have been because of her.

"Here," Yabemiya said, handing the glass to Elizabeth. She didn't dare to meet her eyes, so she just stole glances at her.

"Thank you." She took a drink from the glass. "I'm leaving," she said, looking up at Yabemiya.

"So soon?"

Elizabeth nodded. "There is something I need to take care of."

"But your wounds…"

"They have almost completely healed. Don't underestimate dragons' self-healing ability. You'll know how powerful dragons are when you become one." Elizabeth put down the glass and smiled proudly.

"I don't know what had happened to you, but you can stay here if you want to. It's safe here."

"It won't be once they find me." Elizabeth stood up and put her hand on the table. A sapphire ring suddenly appeared.

"Thank that elf for me and hold onto the ring for me until I get back…" The temperature dropped suddenly as a teleportation glyph appeared under her feet, and an instant later, she was gone.

"If I can get back alive…"

"Miss Elizabeth…" Yabemiya felt as empty as the room she was standing in.

She looked at the ring on the table and picked it up. "It's so beautiful!"

The ring was silver, engraved with a dragon. The sapphire was transparent and flawless.

She agonized for a while over whether to put it on or not. At last she shook her head, found a piece of cloth, wrapped it up carefully, and hid it away in a corner of her closet.

Good luck, Miss Elizabeth. Dragons might be strong, but some humans are stronger than dragons. Alex the Dragon Slayer, for instance. He must look fierce. Hopefully I'll never meet him.

…

Sally had planned to talk to Elizabeth, but she didn't see her when she walked past Miya's room.

"Good morning, Aisha," Yabemiya said, walking out with a smile. "Elizabeth has left. She says thank you."

Sally nodded, relieved. Miya's smile never failed to put her in a good mood.

"I need your help, Aisha. An orc wants to celebrate his son's birthday in the ice cream shop. His boy is only five years old but very sick. The doctor said he won't live very long. He wants to see snow before he dies, so…"

"I'm sorry, Miya, but I have to go somewhere tomorrow," Sally said apologetically.

"Oh." Miya looked disappointed, but only for a short while. She smiled at Sally. "It's okay. Do your thing, I'll figure something out."

Sally nodded and walked towards the bathroom. Such a nice girl. She always puts others first.

…

Mag was sitting at a table, drawing up a recruitment notice. He had been at it for over an hour, but still hadn't written one to his satisfaction. The trash can beside him was filled with paper balls.

He sighed. "No way am I going to find someone as good as Sally. She is the best."
