doric x gn!reader - she catches you with her tail
You hear a cry of your name, but there's simply not enough time to adjust your trajectory. Bringing your arms up to protect your head, you can only brace yourself.
Flaming hair flashes in your periphery. A scaled tail hooks around your waist, yanks you back in the other direction. For a precious few beats, you're suspended above death.
Then, you're held tight to Doric's body, danger averted. The beam of magic wooshes past and fizzles out.
Doric's cheeks promptly burn. She pushes you from herself, her step backward unsteady. Her tail takes its sweet time to unlatch from your waist, though eventually it does.
"Careful," she says in a low voice.
She casts you one more glance before returning to the fight, leaving you to follow.
