Featuring Becoming a Dragon Knight. A short story by Naomi Johns
 
Gabriel longs to become a knight and follow in his father’s footsteps. But in a kingdom of dragon shape-shifters, the only way to do so is to prove his worth to the Wyvern king by winning the Knight’s Annual Recruiting Tournament. 
The only problem? In order to compete, he must partner with a Drake in the Knight’s Order who can vouch for his character… and his stepfather is his only option. 
Gabriel must learn to accept help from someone different from him if he wants to earn his place.
