Amendiel is nose deep into the map of the land his scout had delivered to him this morning and from the looks of it, the days of peace may soon be over.
His uncle, Vulcan, was still spreading his wings further, forming alliances with smaller dragon clans who were against Amendiel rulership.
Amendiel is not perturbed about his uncle's scheming, because he is certain to fail, cowards always did, but if this inconvenience keeps him away from his mate, then it may be a problem.
As Ruto leaves the chamber , his eyes make contact with Drakar's.
The connection is brief but Ruto doesn't mistake the animosity in those brooding stares.
It wouldn't be the first time he feels as though the dragon's gaze can see through him doing something he's not meant to do.
Drakar's strong gaze follows Ruto out of the meeting room, with a hard look Amendiel and Ignavar don't seem to notice.
