Dragon’s Little Lie Excerpt:
After relaxing for quite some time, Dragon got up, eager to do something. They just weren’t sure what they wanted to do. Sometimes, walking helped ideas come to mind, so Dragon set out on the forest path, heading toward the pond.
Nearing the pond, Dragon heard a duck’s quacking before they saw the duck sitting close to the water’s edge. It was Diana Duck, who usually lived in the sanctuary. Dragon was surprised, but also very pleased to see her. They approached, smiling and waving.
