The Wizard Who Dumped a Dragon

Aldric Fumblewick has been a licensed wizard for eleven days. In that time, he’s accomplished exactly one thing: breaking up with his girlfriend.

He called Scorla “too intense.” He mentioned the sock hoarding. He delivered his rehearsed speech at their favorite tavern, where the fireplace erupted, the candle melted into a puddle of waxy surrender, and the decorative hunting tapestry burst into flames.

Aldric assumed she was upset.

He was right. He was also wrong about nearly everything else, starting with the fact that Scorla is a three-hundred-and-forty-year-old dragon who’s been living as a human for thirty years, and the “sock hoarding” is the most dragon thing she could possibly do short of sleeping on a pile of gold.
