After 4 weeks, Bella is now sitting on a chair in the receiving parlour. Arabella's father is adamant to marry his daughter off to a suiter.
He began to feel insulted when he found out that his daughter is not claimed by any dragon.
As a famous jeweller, he is feeling insulted that his daughter is not claimed by any dragon. So before people began to talk openly about that, he decided to marry his daughter off to a Nobel rich man from their fairy society.
Bella is feeling uncomfortable sitting in front of this stranger, while he is oggling her like the pastry in his hands.
She discreetly looked towards the door for the other two woman, who begged for her to act like Arabella. They began to call her Bella, and she remembered that strange man on her first night in fairy.
'He too called me Bella' she thought.
But soon let that thought slip to the back of her mind.
'You are not here to stay. As soon as Ari returns, you need to go back to your life. So don't get too attached with anyone' she thought.
She looked at her partners in crime and raised her eyebrows to ask what happened.
Doris just winked at her and Elvina is trying not to laugh too loudly.
That's when Bella understood that they planned something funny with this one.
It's her 4th date since she agreed to stay here. Doris spoiled all the other three with different reasons.
She threatened the first one. Made the second one forget why he came to our house in the first place, and the third one was ran from the entrance itself.
But today, Ari's father Scott is home, and they are not doing anything openly.
'I wonder what they planned with this one' she thought with amusement.
Soon, the fairy guy in front of her started to make faces, holding his belly.
He farted loudly, making Bella laugh out loud, much to his embaressement.
"Excuse me" he said and ran out of the parlour, all the while farting.
As soon as he left, Doris, Bella and Elvina began to laugh loudly.
That alerted Scott and he came out of his office.
"What happened?" he asked with a skeptical expression on his face.
"I think he is not suitable for our Bella. I think he has constipation problems" Doris explained vaguely.
Scott shook his head with amusement.
But when that guy came out of the chamber pot room farting loudly, even Scott began to laugh.
That guy ran out their house red faced.
"Young people these days eat everything and anything" Scott muttered and went back inside his home office.
Doris, Elvina and Bella busted out laughing.
"What did you do?" Bella asked Doris.
"It's a herb which I grow in my balcony. If used in small doses, it will reliev fever and pain. But in large doses, it will cause gas problems for who ever eats it" Doris winked mischievously.
Bella giggled.
"There will never be a dull day with you" Bella pointed out with a smile.
"Don't miss me too much after you go back home" Doris teased Bella.
Bella laughed at that comment.
"Bella, go get that tea leaves Scott began to love. He might need it after this failed date" Elvina told Bella.
"Sure Elvina" Bella replied and went outside.
On the backside of their house is a huge forest, where Bella found tea leaves one day while she was strolling. She bought some home and tried to prepare tea.
Scott, who was used to drinking tea when he was in the human world, came home to the amazing smell of tea and asked for a cup.
When she served with tea with biscuits, he loved it. Since that day, he always drinks tea after coming home from work or when he is stressed.
Doris and Elvina looked at Bella's retreating figure with a soft smile.
"I like her" Doris commented.
"I do too. She is very sweet and understanding" Elvina agreed.
"Ofcourse she is sweet. She is my daughter" Scott commented from behind them, completely misunderstanding the conversation.
Doris and Elvina jumped with fright when they heard Scott's voice.
They turned to look at Scott with huge shocked eyes.
"What?" Scott asked with a confused look.
Both the ladies breathed a sigh of relief.
'So he didn't understand anything' they thought.
"You went inside your office just now. So we were not expecting you here so soon. We were startled" Elvina explained.
"Oh" Scott nodded his head in understanding.
"I came out for some tea. Where is Bella? Tell her to prepare some of her tea for me" Scott said before retreating inside his office.
Elvina and Doris sighed.
"That was close" Doris mumbled.
Elvina looked at her mother with surprise.
"You are picking up Bella's human language" Elvina teased.
Doris giggled.
"Like she says, it's so cool" Doris mimicked Bella's words.
On the other hand, Bella walked inside the forest for the tea leaves.
It's 20 minutes walk from their house and she likes it very much. She always feel refreshed after these walks.
Fairy is devoid of pollution and the air around here is fresh. The leaves, flowers and fruits are more vibrant.
You can see millions of stars at night along with the moon.
No vehicles to pollute the peaceful environment.
Everything here in fairy is either made of wood or stones. There are no concrete buildings wats so ever.
Bella could see so many different birds chirping happily in the forest.
They sing and play with each other happily.
Bella reached the place where she usually plucks tea leaves from and began to pluck a handful of them for Ari's father.
That's when she heard a familiar voice, which made her close her legs tightly and her core to clench for more.
Bella's eyes widened with fear.
His voice deeply ingrained in her mind and refused to leave her thoughts. She even find her release at nights with his voice.
"Oh no. It's him. The stranger I lost my virginity to. Damn, if he finds me, then how can I face him?" Bella thought, her face flamming red.
After his mate escaped, Blaze is hell bent on finding her. He took the addresses of all the bride's that were present that night and left the ones who were claimed by a dragon.He didn't know that there were 210 woman who were participated in this year's run and only 15 of them were claimed by the dragons as their brides.The remaining were sent home to their parents, by the time Blaze returned back. But he know she is not one of them. He saw everyone just before the run.None of them made him feel the way she made him feel. So he decided to search for the entire realm for her.The fact that she ran away after spending a night with him is new to Blaze. Usually woman fall all over themselves to please him. But she is different.The first thing she did after woke up is run away.'Did she know who he is? But then again, even if she doesn't, he is not bad to look at. Why did she run away? She is the first woman who ran away from me. My mat
Blaze nodded his at Doris and retreated to where he left Brandon. He is sure his mate is in that house and that the older lady is lying to him.But he needs to talk to his mate first. He doesn't know what she must be thinking.'If she wants to be with him or not, he is not sure. He doesn't know how he will make her agree to be with him if she doesn't like to be with him. But no one can break their bond, which is already formed. The tattoo on his chest, just over his heart is the proof of that' Blaze thought.Brandon on the other hand is searching for his brother. He took off so fast, Brandon was shocked to find him gone in a second."This is the village. My mate is here" Blaze announced as soon as he found Brandon."Really? Did you found her? Then what's the delay? Let's take her back to the palace" Brandon said excitedly."She is here. But I didn't see her yet. You should go back and take care of things there in my absence. It's not good fo
Blaze is surprised to hear her words.'That night was a mistake?' he thought with amusement.'No my Bella, it's not a mistake. I kept avoiding women all my life, now I like a woman, but she thinks our time together is a mistake? Damn it, woman, how should I make you understand that it's not a mistake? That night, in that forest, it was the night of the bridal run. If she was not willing, then what was she doing there? Isn't she one of the participants? What is going on here? Nothing which happens that night is considered a mistake. Then what is this?' Blaze thought with confusion.'Now I need answers. She is the only one who can answer those questions' he thought.All night, her thoughts and her scent kept assaulting him. He had little to no sleep at all.The next day, he waited for her to come to the forest to collect those tea leaves. But to his disappointment, she didn't. It was almost time for the moonrise when her unique scent assaulted his no
"No" he replied.Bella is shocked."What do you mean by 'No'? I am telling you I am not interested in you at all. I am telling you not to follow me like this. And you are telling me no? What does it even mean?" Bella demanded.Blaze looked at her blankly.'Some thing is wrong here' he concluded."I will tell you what I mean in a moment. But first, you tell me what were you doing at that time of the night in that forest" Blaze asked looking straight in to her eyes.Bella paled hearing that question.'What should I tell him? That I was kidnapped by Ari to replace her in that stupid bridal run? If I do, then it's a disaster waiting to happen' she thought."I was hiding there" she muttered.When Blaze heard her statement, he frowned."Hiding there? From who or from what?" he asked with a blank face."Ahh.. that...yes...From those stupid Dragons" she said hastily.Blaze raised his eyebrows at that comment.
When Blaze heard her reasoning to participate in the bridal run, he was convinced.These kinds of things always happen around here. Not many, but a few here and there. Brides who are not yet ready to get married will be forced by their parents, either for the greed of money or for the status in society. They might even force their daughters to give them a good future.But whatever the reason is, every year a bride or two would be forced to participate in these runs. But usually, they would not be claimed by dragons.Only willing females would be claimed. The Dragons can sense their hesitation even before the run could begin, they make it a point not to go after unwilling females.But his case is different. He got this urgent need to claim her as his. As soon as he saw her that night, that's the only thing that ran in his mind.But now, listening to everything she just said, he does not regret claiming her as his. She belongs to him. He will make h
Bella jumped a little when she heard some noise from behind her.He covered his chuckle with a cough."What was that?" She asked looking all around them for the source of the noise.Blaze decided to tease her a little. He never knows he could have this much fun by just talking to her."Might be one of the ghosts you mentioned" he responded casually.Bella paled at that comment. Slowly she moved closer to him. He noticed it as well."So, you saw any ghosts?" he asked her, trying to find out about how she got this crazy idea.Bella shook her head.No, she is scared of ghosts, but she likes to read ghost stories and novels. She used to sit inside her room and read ghost stories whenever she finds time.She likes to read a lot rather than watch tv."I like to read ghost stories. But I am scared of Ghosts" Bella mumbled.Blaze began to laugh at her explanation."You like ghost stories, but you are scared of gho
Both Doris and Bella made their way inside the house, but just as they were about to enter inside, they heard two sets of male voices.Bella didn't open the door immediately when she heard those voices."Are we having any guests today?" She asked Doris in a low voice.Doris sighed and nodded her head."Yes, he is Scott's best friend's son. He is going to stay here with us for a couple of days" Doris supplied helpfully.Bella frowned when she heard this."Really?" She asked Doris Skeptically.Doris nodded her head.But Bella is not convinced. There is something Doris is not telling her."Come on Doris, tell me everything" Bella insisted.Doris looked at Bella sheepishly."I don't want to scare you off. But yes, there is something else" Doris agreed.Bella frowned.'This is not sounding good, she thought'"Tell me" she prompted softly.Doris is looking uncomfortable."That boy i
Scott looked at his wife with shock.It's so unlike Elvina to insult their guests like this."What is wrong with you Elvina? You are embaressing Murry" Scott said with a frown.Elvina glared at Murry, when Scott was not looking at her."I am not trying to embaress any one dear, but I am just stating a fact" Elvina defended.Scott sighed. He too know his daughter dosen't like Murry. But all his friends are already asking him why no dragon has claimed Arabella. They were all very sure that atleast one girl from their village would become a Dragon's bride. But after Arabella came back with out being claimed, he lied to them that she like someone else to save face.Now he has to make his lie a truth and marry his daughter off as soon as possible. But to his bad luck, no matter who ever comes to meet his daughter, they always ended up being duds.He was left with no other option but to ask his friend to send his son. As Murry always liked A
