last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Cora's POV

At the accounts office, everything was going well, as Isaac introduced me to the accounts of the club and Inn. When he gave me my job description, I was extremely excited. Finally, I had my dignity back. I'm not going to be a stripper anymore. Sawyer might not be what I thought he was after all. This icy cold man has an internal, kind personality.

I guess my mind was filled with too much-rubbished fear when he asked me to see him. I was only unhappy when I didn't get to complete my conversation with Ken. I wanted to know more about the mysterious man, but Sawyer came before I could ask the main question in my mind. Ken seemed to know a lot about this mysterious man and just like me, he was trying to know the reason for his sudden disappearance which would be of immense help to me.

I found Sawyer very strange. He had shown me kindness but I haven't been able to expedient the intent of his actions. I keep thinking of why he chose to give me this job

    Brayden's POV I was dumbstruck by my father's words. How could he talk like that? My mother clearly said the reason for the war was because of the gold. Now it seemed there were more secrets. I didn't know how long I could stay away from the city. I had to look for Cora, I had work and I had taken Steve away from his family too. I knew that his mate would be returning soon and I wasn't ready for any more surprises but I had to know the mystery lurking behind this traumatizing war. "What are you implying?" I couldn't hold back the anger in my voice and only came to my senses when Steve spoke. "Isn't that why we are here? What is the essence of going back, and leaving the puzzles scattered? If you are worried about my mate, then forget it. I agreed to help you and that means till all this ends. And I thought you wanted to know more about the mate bond since your DNA is peculiar. This should be a good opportunity, you know? I suggest we find somewhere comfortabl

    Cora's POV I resigned myself to dumbness, as I was swallowed by extreme kindness. But the forbearance of my old car having been scrapped had worked its way in me to paralysis. The utterances to express my emotions were completely misplaced. I tried to reason and take in the kindness which rather seemed to be a loss to me. Had I the conviction from the onset that he was serious when he mentioned scrapping it, I would have retaliated but it seems too late now. It was the only entity I had in memory of my old boy. I detested him for abandoning us but I can't also seem to completely disconnect myself or to part with him. Maybe my longing for him was what gave me the impression that I loathed him. Driving that car made me feel close to him. I was so upset that I just wanted to retire to a quiet place where I could battle alone in my thoughts. I had completely forgotten that I was in Sawyer's car till I heard his voice. It was as if I had gone through a trance.

    'Knowing him more?’ My thoughts were flooded by a rampage of confusion, considering what Patty just announced. Do I admittedly not know him already? What else was there to know? Could it be that my inability to know Sawyer better was due to my crazy mind still being enveloped with thoughts of this mysterious guy? Could it also be true that my intimacy with the latter was the cause? No, I don't believe it. "I already know him." That was my defensive response. "What else do you want me to know?" I asked Patty. I was surprised to see her eyes pop at my question. "Are you so free-minded?" She frowned before she continued. "I seriously don't think so. Look, you had a one-night stand with someone you don't know and you can't seem to forget him. Intimacy is binding you to him. My advice, try doing it with Sawyer and see whether you get over him or not. It doesn't make you a slut. It's just to clear your conscience. The feeling that you had an affair with a stranger makes yo

    Brayden's POV As my mother instructed, I and the rest of the team covered every remains of the cabin with shrubs - but not before planting some trees at the location. Soon, everywhere was covered in a way that one wouldn't guess that a whole cabin ever existed. After bidding goodbye, the Dragon Lord and his entourage returned to their Empire, while Steve and I left for the capital. I felt my energy begin to soar to the extent that I carried Steve on my back, all the way to where I packed the car. With the old mans' warning, I didn't want us to travel in Dragon form and Steve was too weak in human form as a result of fatigue, since we hadn't slept for the past few days. My strength was completely doubled and right now, it's time for me to find my mate, Cora. I wish I had marked her. It would have been very easy for me to locate her the instant I arrived, and I would have been able to feel everything she felt. As I drove closer to the capital, my mind was only

  • Secret Son of The Dragon Lord   Chapter 19 - You are my....

    Sawyer's POV We arrived at the hospital and I saw Coras' sister sitting on a bench in front of the emergency room. She was covered in her hair with her face buried between her thighs. She had the same hair color as Cora, which made me guess correctly. The resemblance was extreme when she lifted her head even though she looked younger. The mere look at her would tell you who she was. They would have passed for twins if not for differences in their height. She rose and hooked Cora in a tight embrace, while her eyes scanned me suspiciously. "Hi," I forced a smile. I wanted to make a good first impression and not end up scaring her with my cold mien. "Am Cecilia. Coras' sister. But you can call me Cecil," she waved, forcing back her tears. I could see that she was more exposed than her elder sister. An extrovert will be the best description of her. "Nice to meet you Cecil. My name is Sawyer. Am a-". Cora cut in before I completed my sentence.

    Cora' POV Everything that's happened today has left me maimed. I can't believe that the cold, terrifying and domineering Sawyer, followed me to the hospital, then paid for my mother's treatment after buying me a new car and giving me a decent job. His kindness is scary and I feel so indebted to him. But should he not have helped, what would I have done? How could I have coughed up such an amount of money in a short while? Gradually, I felt all my fears of losing my mum too early in life dissipating with the influx of a new kind of fear. The fear of not being able to repay Sawyer. However I look at it, this debt won't be repaid anytime soon. Whereas, what could he want in return? Men never do anything for free right? If he was just some good samaritan, he would have done the same for other people. But looking at it, I am the only girl he has gotten close to in the club. Could he?.... No, no way. I don't think he sees me like that. But, what if that is his intention? B

    Cora's POV After silently leaving the washroom, I went back to the table. Cecil had finished eating and was being led away by Sawyer. "Right on time. You can relax in my office," he said, tossing his card in my direction before leading Cecil away. If I was confused before, I am now perplexed. Where from the sudden niceness and easiness around me? He even gave me the card to access his office. I am so muddled. I waited in his office for a few minutes before Cecil walked in with Sawyer trailing behind her. "Wow, and I thought Cora's office was beautiful. I take it back," she retorted as she scanned Sawyer's office admiringly. "It's just a waste because I don't spend much time in the office myself. I have people taking care of all the paperwork so I spend more time on the field." I didn't understand what he meant by that but I didn't ask. "If you girls don't mind, you can spend the night at my place. I have enough spare rooms. It's closer to the ho

    Sawyer's POV I got out of the ward rapidly when I realized someone was trying to mind-link with me. I guessed it would be George as he had tried earlier when I was with Cora but I cut him off before she realized anything. She doesn't know what I am yet and revealing it now might terrify her. I called Goerge immediately I stepped out since I knew Cora would like to spend some time with her mum. I reprimanded him as soon as I heard his voice on the phone. "Why did you mindlink? I've been with Cora all this while. You almost ruined everything," I said half-seriously. "You still haven't told her? You are wasting too much time. It's not in our nature to waste so much time. I've already marked my mate but she just can't move in with me immediately. You know humans' ways are different. She wants us to get married the human way after she completes her education before we can move in together," George said with a mix of excitement and dissatisfaction.

    Brayden's POV "Breath, Cora, breathe. You are almost there," I encouraged her, as I kissed the beads of sweat formed on her forehead. With another loud and painful groan, the cry of our Dragon child fills the atmosphere. "Tell me, is it a boy or girl?" She was panting. "A boy, a bouncy baby boy. He looks just like you," I said with a joyfully laced voice. She smiles weakly and closes her eyes to the raging pang of sleep. It's been fifty years since I got mated to Cora. Well, counting from the wedding day, maybe. Our first child has just arrived. I intend to name him Colton Maddock if Cora agrees. It isn't easy to conceive a dragon child and we aren't an exception. However, not only did it not follow the human rule of nine months but rather twelve instead of ten. A lot has transpired since we got married fifty years ago. Well, Cora and I haven't aged in stature. We still look the same, thanks to the Dragon DNA. Even Steve and Isabella are still

    Cora's POV Everything that happened today, seems like a dream. The Ammyssian empire seems like a different world and who would have thought Serena was the end to the war? I don't regret any decision or action I have taken today. I think everything is worth it. Brayden and I saved each other. I got him out of the net and he was there in time to heal me when the rogue alpha knocked me out. He has stepped on so many toes. I've never seen a person who so desperately is a weapon of pain that everyone wants revenge on. Well, thank God everything has ended. I went to release Isabella from the hideout and Steve decided to stay with her till she delivers, which means that Bray is going to watch over his company for him but it's fine with me. Brayden and I left the Ammyssian empire the next day because of my school but I will never forget the little time I have spent there. The Dragon King is such an amazing person. I can't believe he helped me to discover

    Serena's POV Alas, I am free again. I couldn't watch Sawyer take all the revenge. I made a promise to Sarah and I had to keep it. I had to give her a chance to avenge her family's death. My only regret is not being able to get my revenge too. I hated the rogue alpha for everything he took from me - all the years I spent hostage away from my mate and my wolves. I loathed him. Death was not enough to wash away the bitterness I felt. I slept on the cold floor for years. I starved myself. I was griefed and never elated. For a moment, I thought I couldn't make it but Sarah gave me hope. When the rogue alpha hit Cora on the head, I lost it. I couldn't watch her suffer for no fault of hers. She even sacrificed her life for us by helping us escape while she faced him alone. I admit she has some mage powers. I envied her slightly. It's good to be more than what people expect you to be. The initial grudge I felt before when I saw her has dissipated. She was

    Sawyer's POV The days of training till death did not go in vain even though things didn't go as planned. The Dragons were well prepared and had taken down thousands of werewolves. We only succeeded in injuring a few but my anger escalated when I saw the red Dragon George talked about in the sky. George's army was down and he was helping to take care of the injured. That red Dragon was emitting both fire and ice. It was more powerful than any Dragon I had seen. I thought of how I could defeat it and thankfully, help came from the rogue alpha. Strangely, the dragon shifted to human form in the middle of the battle and went inside the castle. Then I realized it was Brayden. I Cursed him with my wolf and set a trap for him with the help of the rogue alpha. I told my men to stop searching for him after Cora chose Brayden over me. He strangely showed up today with the best help ever. He helped me capture Brayden in the fireproof net and mysteriously disappeared but I

    Cora's POVI have never seen a woman as enchanting yet, dignified as Serena. I perceive that she is hiding something and doesn't want to trust anyone. She said she was looking for the Dragon King but who could go to call him in the middle of a war. I wanted to tell Bray to get his father but she stopped me and for the first time, I had to hide the truth from him. She seems to need help and I desperately want to help her but I can't if she doesn't open up to me. Her friend whose name I didn't even ask, seems to be timid but she manages to speak when the need arises.I want to help her but there seems to be a wall of secret between us and I don't know how to decipher it. I am not skilled in psychology in any way. She wants to confess but suddenly, I hear a bang on the door. She can't hide her panic and I can see through her like glass."Is the person looking for you?" I asked Serena. There was evident fear in her eyes, which made me realize that whoever is b

    Third Person's POVThe duo followed the guard back to the battle. The weakest Dragons had already defeated the first batch of werewolves and Sawyer was furious. The next batch came with fireproof nets and unfortunately, one of the Dragons was trapped in it. With one fearful yank, the dragon was free and returned to battle. They were fighting in human form at the moment.For the time being, lurking in the bushes were two friends disguised. Serena found her way to the Ammyssian Empire and was able to make her way to the tunnel where she was once hidden. This time, it was much more secure than the first time. She did not know how to get in. It wasn't easy distracting the guards at the entrance but now that she was here, the door was locked."There should be another way right?" Sarah asked, furrowing her brows.Serena was deep in thought. "No, this is the only way.""Why don't we knock then?"Sarah's question slightly annoyed Serena. "Can't you

    Third Person's POV Steve left Brayden's penthouse, not long before he returned with bitter news. He wasn't sure what it was but it didn't seem to be well. "Brayden, I think the war has begun. We have to move now." Brayden was stunned. "You left just a few minutes ago. How did you know?" Steve's voice was gravelly. "My mate is panicking. I can feel it. She seemed calm since I left her but the panic now is continuous. I think there is a problem." Brayden knew better not to argue. He understood the strength of the mate bond. If he feels it, then it's true. "Cora, wear something comfortable. It's quite a long journey," he said, ushering Cora to the bedroom closet to get changed. "Not too long. I found a shortcut. We couldn't use it the last time because we didn't go straight away. We made a turn remember?" Brayden paused briefly but went ahead without a word. It was Autumn so the weather was turning cold. Cora wore jean

    Third Person's POV In a faraway land from the Alpha King's pack, lies a pack inhabited by rogues. The leader of the pack calls himself the rogue alpha. He never wanted to be in any pack because of his undying desire for power, which was denied him by wither packs. His inability to attain such led to him being rogue. Anyhow, he did not live there alone but was able to brainwash thousands of werewolves to join him in this pack and rule as the rogue alpha. His desire for power never ceased and yet, he had eyes on the Luna of the Alpha King, from the moment he first saw her during one of their meetings. Since then, the obsession has caused him to do the undoable and challenge the unchallengeable. Unable to win her love the right way, he captured her as his hostage.

    Brayden's POV I haven't seen or heard from Steve for a few days. I call him to brainstorm with me on what to do about the attack of the werewolves only to be astonished by his first-hand information. How has he been in communication with my father when I haven't heard from him in a long while? Most probably after what happened with my mom? He does not realize the extent of my distress and casually continuous speaking. My muscles tense at every word that proceeds out of his mouth. "I returned from there a day ago. I'd wanted to come to you but thought otherwise." He smirks. Why do I have the feeling that he has something up his sleeves? "What did you do there?" A thin grin of excitement appears at the corners of his mouth. "My mate is pregnant and that's the best place for her to be cared for." I feel my muscles instantly relax but then, a gentle line of curiosity swept my mind."Your mate is pregnant and you never told me?"
