After the guard left, the king looked at Terry and me, "You should bring her up here and let her rest on the crown princess's throne."

Terry looked at the king, surprised, "Are you sure, your majesty?"

"Of course I am. My son has troubled her greatly. It's the least I can do."

Terry then made his way up the stairs and placed me down on the throne beside the king. Once I was sat down, I said to the king, "Thank you."

After an hour, the guard returned with two other guards dragging Larry by the arms, wearing special shackles that prevented him from using mana, casting spells, or changing forms.

The two guards dragged Larry up to the king and dropped him to his knees. Larry looked up at the king and asked, "Father, what's the meaning of this?!"

Without realising it, Larry's eyes were still in their pink state for the king to see, "I can see you actually had pink eyes this whole time."

Larry then realised his mistake, "That's beside the point! Why have you ordered your guards to put

  • A Dragons Heart   A Mundane life

    I woke up to the sound of my alarm, and despite it only being 7 am, I was already feeling fed up. Nevertheless, I managed to pull myself out of bed and prepare myself for another school day.After I changed my clothes, I walked out of my room and down the hall to the kitchen, where my parents were already awake and had prepared me breakfast as they always do.I sat down and looked at the breakfast before me; my Mother always made breakfast, and she gave me a small portion since she never liked to give me too much food before I left for school.After a while, I left the house to head to school. As I walked, I saw some brown-haired guy walking just ahead. It took me a moment to realise it was my friend James. Because I was wearing shoes that made a lot of noise, he heard me walking behind him and turned around. When he saw me, he immediately had a giant smile on his face, "Zander! Why didn't you say you were behind me sooner!"I smiled, "Sorry, I didn't realise it was you.""Oh, well, no

    I slowly started to come to and open my eyes, but when I did, all I saw around me was pure darkness. As I tried to move, I could feel that my entire body felt as though it was being restrained by something all around me.As I moved around and tried to get free, cracks of light formed all around me as what looked like walls broke away, blinding me with light.I tried to look around after it was gone, but my eyes were still adjusting to the room's brightness. Finally, as my eyes came into focus, I looked down at what was left of what I was trapped inside and to my shock, I was sitting inside half of an eggshell.As I kept looking, I noticed my arms and legs were much shorter and stubby, and the rest of my body seemed to be the same, 'What the hell happened to my body?! Even my skin is a milky white now!'While I was completely confused about what was going on, a giant woman walked over to me, picked me up, and cradled me in her arms. I looked up at her face and saw she had yellow eyes, a

  • A Dragons Heart   A welcome ball

    When I woke up, I found myself inside a dark room, but despite it being dark, I could still see as if the lights were on, 'Why does everything look so clear? I can tell the room's dark, but I can still see fine. Is it because I'm a dragon?'Looking around the room, I could see everything clearly. The room looked like a standard room that wasn't in a cave but was still elaborately decorated, just like the others.The room was much larger than the one I was reborn in but less than half the size of the sitting room my new family was in. The walls were tall and the furniture in the room was amazing, all looking handcrafted. However, the cot I was lying in looked to be the most valuable piece in the room.The cot, like the other pieces of furniture, looked handmade. However, the elaborate design on the wood suggested a much higher level effort.'I must have been reborn into a rich family. This place is completely different from my previous life. I doubt my parents could have afforded a sing

    The following day I woke up to Crimson's smiling face. She picked me up from my cot and changed me into another new dress she had ready for me. Part of me was starting to feel like I was her own personal dress-up doll. When we left my room, Crimson took me down a new corridor. This one took us outside the cave. Because of how bright it was inside the cave, my eyes didn't need to adjust to the bright outside. As I looked around, I saw the area outside was a large training area built onto a large ledge on the side of a mountain and in the middle of it were Walter and Tom, 'Wow! I didn't realise the cave was in a mountain! From what I can see, we're pretty high up too!' Crimson raised her hand in front of her, and as she did, I saw a yellow aura emit from her hand, and then a wooden chair materialise out of thin air. She then sat down and watched the two of them train, 'So I was right. She can use magic, and it wasn't just my imagination!' As I sat in awe of Crimson's skills in magic,

    A month passed, and eventually, I was able to start sitting up on my own for the first time, 'I finally did it! I didn't realise how much I missed being able to sit!' just after I managed to sit up, Crimson came into the room and saw me. She quickly became ecstatic, 'Is she really that happy to see me sitting up on my own?' Before I had any time to react, she materialised another one of those floating spheres and quickly made a memory crystal of me sitting up for the first time. I couldn't help but feel exhausted at her boundless energy and excitement, 'She's doing it again... She creates one of those magic pictures anytime she sees me doing something cute or new, and I'm getting tired of it... She's just too excitable...' Crimson took the crystal from the sphere, and as quickly as she entered, she ran out of the room and down the hall with a massive smile on her face, presumable to Walter, to show off the new crystal. I sighed rather heavily from feeling exhausted, 'I know I alway

    The months started to pass me by within the blink of an eye, and before I knew it, I was already three months old. Since seeing my dragon form, Walter had personally started teaching me in the living room to control and practice changing forms nearly every day. Every time he trained me, he made me change into my form as fast as possible. With his training, I could start changing within a couple of seconds because of how often I practice. After I could begin to change within ten seconds, he started taking me to the training area and teaching me how to fly, and he gave me my first flying lesson only yesterday. The next day, Walter came into my room and changed me out of my night dress. After he did, he carried me out of my room and down the hall, "Today, Sash, I'm going to try and teach you how to fly again." He took me outside to the training area and placed me in the centre of the arena, "Ok, Sash, today I'm going to show you how to effectively use your wings!" I couldn't help but

    A few months later, I was startled awake by the sound of heavy foot traffic coming from outside my room, 'What the hell's going on out there?!' Before I could guess what was happening outside, three maids rushed into my room. Two of them went to my closet and jewellery case and started going through my dresses and accessories, while the other came over to me and picked me up. My head was starting to spin from everything, 'Why are these maids in my room?!? Normally, Crimson's the one who comes and picks me up!' When the maid saw I was looking confused and concerned, she said to me, "Please don't worry, young Miss, the Duchess is busy setting up for today's ball, so she didn't have time to prepare to collect you herself." Her words caught me off guard, 'She's busy with a ball? She's always put off all her work to spend time with me in the past. So this must be for something important.' The two maids picked out a matching dress and accessory for me while the maid carrying me changed

    Over the next month, the guards set up the barrier like Larry told them to, which kept me from collecting the mana in the air. Finally, after that month was over, it came that time when Larry would normally give me some small amount of food. One of the guards in front of my cell received a call from Larry. When he finished talking, he turned to me and said, "His Highness said he won't be able to make it until later today, and because of your previous attempt to escape, he won't be bringing you this month's ration." I let out an amused huff, "He barely feeds me already. So why do I care if he misses one?" The guard didn't respond and turned back around to continue standing guard. Finally, after a few hours, it came time for the guards to change, but no one came in to relieve the current guard. After a few minutes of waiting, the guards in front of my cell became restless, "The next shift should be here by now. Those two in the evening shift are normally more punctual than this." "J

  • A Dragons Heart   Last hope

    Larry would come back to the cave every week to try and convince me to sign the contract, but I refused every time. Finally, after three weeks, Larry came into the cave carrying a stale piece of bread, "You've been in here a month now. Aren't you hungry?" "I went two months without eating of my own choice. You really think I'll cave after a month?" Larry smiled at me, "I have to admit, I do admire your spirit. I think you've earned this much, at least." he ripped the bread in half and threw one of the halves into my cell at my feet, "I'll give you the other half next month." He then left the cave. I reached over, picked up the piece of bread he gave me, and took a small bite out of it, 'Tastes awful, but it's better than nothing. But I should ration it for the next month.' After taking just one bite, I put the bread down beside me and started practising my mana control, 'He said I can't use my mana, but what about the mana in the air?' Concentrating, I was able to see the faint gl

  • A Dragons Heart   The cave

    As I slowly started to come to, I opened my eyes and looked around the room. I noticed I was in what looked like a cave. After completely coming to, I sat up and had a proper look around. I was inside a cell built into the corner of a cave with guards standing just outside the door to the cell. Feeling groggy along with a headache, I took off my wig and mask and threw them on the ground, "What the hell happened? Where am I?" "You always ask a lot of questions, don't you?" I looked over to my left and saw the man in the crow mask standing outside the side of my cell, "Who are you? Are you the bastard that kidnapped my child?!" The man smiled as he took a few steps to the side, allowing me to see the rest of the cave. As I looked behind him, I saw a pedestal in the middle of the room with my egg on it, "My egg! What the hell do you want?!" "You never stop asking questions. That's something I really couldn't stand when we were together." "Just tell me who you are!" The man faced me

  • A Dragons Heart   Masquerade

    While we were still in Walter's office, I asked him, "Can we cast disguise spells on ourselves before we go to the masquerade?" "Spells like that will be broken the moment you walk into the castle. You'll have to wear a wig to hide your hair, but I'm not sure how we'll hide your eyes. Terry doesn't need to change his since magenta eyes are still relatively common among nobles, but pink eyes are rare enough that dragons will know any noble with them." "I can just change the colour of my eyes." "That won't work. Like I told you, spells like that will be broken when you walk into the castle." "Dad, I can change the colour of my eyes through my own will." Walter looked at me, confused, "What?" I leaned in towards Walter as I slowly changed my eye colour to grey, "I can change my eyes to resemble that of any natural dragon eye colour." "And this isn't a spell?" "No, it's one of a pink eye dragon's abilities, but it's apparently kept secret." "I can understand why. An ability like

  • A Dragons Heart   A helping hand

    Terry and I spent the next month working together, combing through everything we could find on the three noble families we were looking into, but we couldn't find anything out of the ordinary. While Terry and I were looking through documents in his office, I finished reading the one I had and threw it on the desk, "Nothing! I can't find a single thing that can help us!" "Sash, please, we'll find something. It'll just take time." "Terry, it's been nearly two months since our egg was taken from us. I want to get it back." "I do too, but we have time. The child won't hatch for nearly five years. So we have all that time to search." "From what I've seen, we're not even close. It's obvious after looking through all this these families didn't do it!" "Then we start again and look for something else to help us." "And how long will that take? I don't want to leave our child's life up to some ruthless bastards who stole it!" "What do you suggest we do then? We've been doing all we can.

    The next day, Terry called Dan, "I need you to come to the estate today." "I'm a bit busy with work today. I can come down tomorrow evening if that's fine with you." "I'm sorry, but we need you to come down today. It's an emergency." Dan started to get a bad feeling, "What's happened?" "Late in the evening yesterday, our estate was attacked, and our egg was kidnapped. Not being able to deal with it, Sash's shut down and hasn't said a word since yesterday." "I'll be there as fast as I can." After a while, Dan arrived at the estate, and Terry escorted him to our bedroom as he told him, "Like I told you, she's completely shut down and unresponsive." "If I'm being perfectly honest, I can't blame her. I wouldn't take it well if my children were kidnapped." When they entered the room, Dan walked over to me and started to check my state, "Sash, can you hear me?" I didn't respond or open my eyes. After Dan finished examining me, he said to Terry, "She's in shock. She could wake up tom

  • A Dragons Heart   Aftermath

    Terry walked me into the living room and put me on the settee. Seeing that I couldn't stop crying, Terry crouched in front of me and held my hand, "Sash, we'll get our child back, I promise you. But right now, I need you to stay here. I'm going to call the guard. While they're on their way here, I'm going to go to the incubation room and see if they left anything behind we can use to find them." I was too emotional to talk at this point, so Terry reached into his pocket, gave me his handkerchief and then got to his feet, "I'll be back soon..." Terry then left me to calm down in the living room while he went upstairs to the incubation room. He looked around the room and couldn't find anything, only some scratches on the floor from where they had placed something heavy down, "Looks like I was right. They were smart enough to bring a transport box for the egg to keep it warm." He then went out of the room and checked on the guards. Unfortunately, they were all severely knocked out and
