A Dragons Heart Painful goodbye
I got up early the next day and got ready as I checked around my room to make sure I didn't forget anything. After a while, my room was cleared out, 'It's weird seeing this room back to how it was when I first arrived. I guess I really got comfortable here.' After one final look around my room, I picked up my bag, put it around my shoulder, and walked out of my room. When I walked out of my room, Terry was waiting outside for me as usual, so I asked him, "You finished packing?" "Yeah, I finished most of it yesterday before I went to sleep." "You must be eager to go. I could only bring myself to get just over half of my packing done yesterday." "So that's why you took longer than normal. Also, I'm not eager to leave, but we have to go back at some point, so there's no point in dragging it out." "I guess you're right. Let's go down and say goodbye to everyone then." Terry and I made our way downstairs and into the dining room. When I walked in, I looked over at Peter and said, "We'
A Dragons Heart Returning home
After 16 days of travelling back, we finally arrived outside Kiddra capital. To make getting through the front gate easier, we landed and approached the gate in our full forms. When the guards saw a pink dragon approaching the gate, they immediately assumed I was either royalty or a noble and started opening the gate for Terry and me. Once we were through the gate, we took back to the sky and spent the next six hours flying back to my estate. Finally, we landed just outside the estate, returned to normal, and walked to the front door. When I knocked on the front door, Jasmin answered, "Yes?" I was surprised but happy to see her answer, "Jasmin!" I immediately hugged her. "Miss Sasha, you're back?!" "Of course I'm back. Did you think I'd be gone forever? Also, why are you answering the door? That's not your job." "I'm your personal maid, miss. If you're not here, then I have no work to do, so the Duke put me to work around the estate while you were away." I finally let go of Jas
A Dragons Heart Planning
Over the next week, I spent every day with Crimson making arrangements for the wedding. Unfortunately, during this week, we couldn't decide on a venue. Crimson and I sat down in my garden and shared a pot of tea as she talked about venues, "Sash, we need to pick a venue before we can set a date. What's wrong with having your wedding at the same place as Dan?" "There's nothing wrong with it, but I want that to be a special place for Dan. I want a nice venue that isn't the same as his." "Alright. What about trying to have it at one of the local wedding venues? There are many beautiful buildings just for weddings." "I'm not sure. I want it to be more special than any old venue." Crimson then had an idea, "Why don't you have the wedding here?" "You mean in the estate?" "Yes. We can use the other end of the garden and set everything up there. The entire garden is definitely big enough for a wedding." "That's actually a great idea. And I love our garden even if I spend most of my tim
A Dragons Heart The wedding
A week later, Jasmin woke me up early in the morning and prepared me for the day. After she finished getting me ready, I went downstairs to the dining room. When I walked into the room, I was greeted by Crimson, who was already sitting around the table going through some of the wedding plans, "Good morning, Sash. Did you have a good night's sleep?" I sat around the table as I answered, "I did, but I still don't like waking up this early..." "This is the time you used to always get up at before you went on your trip, though." "I know, but I got used to being able to sleep in a little longer." "Before I forget, I was hoping you could go and visit your brother and Angela at their estate today and personally invite them to the wedding." "Dan and Angela got their own estate?" "Of course, they're a married couple now. They need their space. You'll likely want to move out after you marry Terry so you two can be alone together." "I guess you're right. Have you told Dan about the weddin
A Dragons Heart Honeymoon, 1/2
After the ceremony, Terry and I made our way down the gazebo steps and towards the area we set up for the reception. Once everyone was at the reception area, Terry and I made our way into the clearing of people as the music started, and we shared our first dance. After the song was over, Terry and I made our way into the crowd as couples took our place, ready for the next song to start. As we made our way through the crowd, we came face to face with Marquis Laseus, "Terry, I wanted to congratulate you on marrying such an outstanding young woman." "Thank you, Father." The Marquis then turned his attention to me, "So, how does it feel to be a Laseus now?" "I don't care what last name I have, all I care about is that I'm with Terry." The Marquis smiled at my answer, "I'm glad you genuinely care for my son. Have you two decided where you're having your honeymoon yet?" "No, I was too busy planning the wedding that we never talked about it." The Marquis shook his head in disappointme
A Dragons Heart Honeymoon, 2/2
The next day, I woke up in the middle of the day to my body feeling sore. When I looked at Terry's side of the bed, I saw it was empty, so I sat up while keeping the blanket covering me. As I looked around the room, I couldn't see Terry. Instead, I only saw the aftermath of last night with our clothes scattered across the room. While I looked at the trail of clothes, I saw my underdress was ripped and thrown at the side of the bed. I felt annoyed when I saw it completely destroyed, "Damn it, Terry! I told you I didn't bring anything you could rip!" After a minute, I climbed out of bed using the cover to wrap around myself while I went to put on new clothes. As I walked past the mirror, I saw my hair was in a frizzy mess, "Not my hair... that's going to take me an hour to brush at least..." After putting on a new underdress, I returned to the mirror with my hairbrush and started working. As I brushed my hair, Terry came into the room, "Sash, are you awake yet?" I stopped brushing m
A Dragons Heart A sick feeling
The next 10 days went by in a flash, and before I knew it, Terry and I were flying back to the capital. When we arrived the following day, Crimson was waiting outside the estate for us. When we landed and turned back, Crimson rushed over to me and hugged me, "You're back!" "Of course, Mom. I told you we'd only be there for 12 days." Finally, Crimson let me go and said, "Let's go inside and catch up!" "Alright." We made our way inside and to the back living room. Once we were all sat down, Crimson asked me, "How was the honeymoon then?" "It was great! The Marquis may not give the best impression, but he really has a great taste for holidays." "What did you do while you were there?" "We explored around the waterfall. Then, Terry showed me a natural hot spring inside the cave behind the waterfall. After that, we went on a boat ride across the lake. We even went swimming on one day." "Is that all you did for 12 days?" I thought about what we ended up doing for most of our honeymo
A Dragons Heart The surprise
The next day, Jasmin came into my room early in the morning, "Miss, it's time to wake up." Despite trying to wake me up, I was still fast asleep, so Jasmin took my blanket. Even after taking it, I was still sound asleep. Jasmin sighed, "I'm not sure why I even bother taking her blanket anymore..." Jasmin started to shake me by my shoulder, "Miss, you have to get up." When I woke up because of Jasmin's shaking, I woke up to a headache, "My head hurts..." "Are you feeling ok, miss?" "I'm fine, just a mild headache." "If you're sure, miss. I'll start brushing your hair if you wouldn't mind getting out of bed." By the time Jasmin finished brushing my hair and helping me get dressed, my headache had gone, but I was left feeling incredibly tired. When I got downstairs and entered the dining room, I didn't see Crimson, so I asked Jasmin, "Where's my Mother?" "She had some business to take care of, so she left the estate." "When will she be back?" "Sometime in the evening." As I wa

A Dragons Heart New beginnings
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 Shift change
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.
A Dragons Heart Sleepless nights
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
