"Oh you beautiful child, even if you weren't a dragonaught, I would never leave you," Gabriel replied and took his forelimbs and gave them a hug back. If that's what they were worried about, then they didn't need to because Gabriel had fallen head over heels for them. He wasn't going to leave them as long as they loved him back.

"I don't know if you've noticed, but I love you. Not being a dragonaught wouldn't change that." Not that he believed that it was the case. He knew, deep in his heart and soul, that Casey was not only a dragonaught, but his, the one whose soul was intertwined with his own throughout the different lifetimes that separated them by species. "Don't ever think that I wouldn't love you. You're stuck with me for good."
