“Now is the winter of our discontent,” Lila muttered under her breath, right in my left ear. I didn’t look over at the pint-sized dragon, but I did reach up and tug at her tail. She dug her talons into my shoulder to keep her balance, then whapped me with one of her wings.“Don’t egg karma on, we don’t need fate to choose today to shit on us,” I said, brushing her wing away from my face.We had not had a good go of things.
