creatures hurt so much when you break one?”
    “Because it’s how it is. To give a dragon’s oath is to swear with your entire existence, what you promise will be, if not, you wither in pain for all eternity.” He spoke in rhyme and it reminded me of the poems in my head.
    Professor Pheizer must have thought about that too as she gave him a knowing, soft grin. The memory of his poem melting her away in that same chair was definitely evident on her face.
    But Blake’s tone was dull. “Something that will never leave my lips. That is a promise,” he said through a huge grin.
    Buttons!
    She smiled. “Thank goodness that wasn’t a dragon’s oath.”
    Becky had to suppress her laughter as Tabitha just glared at Professor Pheizer.
    “Oh, I’ll say it if you want me to, as it means nothing to me.”
    “Don’t Blake. I’m sure you would like to say it one day to that beautiful girl sitting next to you, and then the regret of this day is going to bite you in the butt.”
    Tabitha smiled and Blake’s lips curled slightly.
    I didn’t like that for some reason, but I knew Professor Pheizer wasn’t an idiot.
    She didn’t want him to make that oath, even though he would never give me his dragon oath, he could still give it to Tabitha.
    The lecture went on about how sacred and strong dragon oaths were. In the old days they used to have a ceremony once a month where dragons could give their oath in front of hundreds of people. It was also something that’d died out when the Creepers consumed Etan and oaths became as rare as Dents. Even though there were two in this classroom.
    When the bell finally rang everyone scattered.
    I let Blake and Tabitha leave first and was one of the last students to leave Professor Pheizer’s class.
    “Elena, can I please have a word?” she asked and I lowered my backpack and almost dragged it behind me, so un-princess like.
    I smiled as I reached her and she mimicked my action with a much kinder and warmer smile.
    “I know you are going through a very difficult time and I said those words…”
    “Professor, you don’t have to explain it to me.”
    “Let me finish.” She gave me the eye with a soft curve at the lips. “I didn’t want him to say it, as the right time will come when he’ll really want to say it….and not to Tabitha.”
    I huffed. “It really doesn’t matter to me that much.”
    “It should. He is your Dent. The boy that is going to literally want to give you the moon and the stars, the one that is going to protect you for the rest of your life.”
    I wanted to protest as I knew that was so not going to ever happen. It made me think back to my father’s, Herbert’s, stories. He told me that too, and if it wasn’t for Cheng’s ability to show them to me, bless his heart, I would still not have remembered them. But…they were all wrong.
    “Don’t. It always happens when the right time comes. You just need to be patient.”
    “So everyone keeps telling me.”
    “Be patient, Elena. Your bond was supposed to have been made a long time ago.”
    I didn’t argue as I really didn’t want to speak about this anymore. I didn’t like anything the Dent stood for.
    So I took a deep breath and nodded.
    “Now go, before you miss the second bell.”
    I opened her door and found Sammy and Dean waiting for me. Becky and George were a couple of paces in front walking side by side.
    “What was that about?” Sammy asked and I scrunched up my nose to tell her it was nothing.
    Dragon promises or oaths made no difference to me as I knew the day one left Blake’s mouth was the day that he wasn’t going to be the same anymore.

 
     
     
     
     
     

    THOUGHT THE DAY that Blake came back was going to be the day classes might get easier, but I was way off.
    Blake, well he was Blake, he rebelled against everything that involved working with me, and in every class he could.
    “Blake?” Professor Mia asked with a huge grin on her face. “Think you want to show Elena how
