CHAPTER 26.5: Twenty Years of Love
Last Updated:
2021-05-20 03:04:59I went into my hotel room and cried. Gram held me the whole time. I decided to go out and have a good last day with Gram before she left that night.
Towards the end of the day Konn messaged me to meet up but I ignored him. After a while I had to talk about it one my time to gram. “I don’t get it… we spent so much time talking before. Why wouldn’t he push having a family into the conversation?”
“To leave the door open.” Betty answered. “Most men do it, but you’ll recover Mae.” She finished packing. “Do you still want to stay here?”
I nodded. “I have to Gram.” This place was still everything I wanted; I wasn’t staying for Konain.
She kissed my forehead. “I love you Mae, as much as the daughters I gave birth to. I hope your heart heals soon. You have so much love to give.”
I nodded and watched her leave with her bags. My phone rang and I saw th

Aqua’s POVAfter hearing my mother’s story, it made me think a lot about my own. “I understand everything now, but I can’t stay here.”“Okay… but Aqua please stop seeing Prince Lexus. I don’t want this for you.”“I will but not until Monday. I need these last few days…”

We stayed silent for a while watching the sky. “Is your father still alive?” I broke the silence.“He is but he moved out of the castle years ago. It was hard on him to be there without my grandfather. Ten years after his death he left.” It was hard for Konn to talk about. “…I was already the royal adviser for a few years before he left. I think I’m making him proud. He knew about you, actually he went with me to drop you off into the human world. He told me I was doing the right thing but if he knew you were the holder, he wouldn’t have felt the same way. He would have firmly believed in the holder being raised here. When he finds out you’re back and that you’re the holder he’ll be disappointed.

I hadn’tseen Aqua all day except for in piano class. It was hard being around her when I knew things between us were over.We didn’t speak to each other after. Since Cade and Konn knew what was going on they were fine with us not working together until Tuesday. Cade was going to aid for me again until then.I was finally let in to speak with my parents. Cade waited outside for me. “What did you want to talk to us about?” My father asked.“I’ve been thinking about my upcoming marriage.”“Are you having doubts?” Mother asked.I sighed because I never had to talk to them about something like this. “Yes, but the main thing I want to discuss is if I decided to call off my engagement would there be any limitation to who I could marry? I want to know if I started to look again.”Mother looked disappointed; I wasn’t used to seeing that. “It’s awfully late to call

Cade tapped on the window. “Is that Sadia?” I looked down out the window where he was pointing. “Fuck, she was probably worried I was lying. I guess she does expect me to be monogamous.” “Of course she does, she's convinced herself she loves you.” I raised my eyebrows. “What?” I hesitated. “No, she doesn’t.” Cade laughed. “Are you kidding me? She obviously loves you or thinks she does. She’s liked you since you guys became friends, that much is sure. I could tell even then.” Not once did Sadia give me the impression that she had strong feelings for me. “Before we got engaged? I know she has feelings for me now but there’s no way she did before. There’s no way she loves me either.” Love or feelings weren’t what our engagement was about. At least I didn’t think it was. “She’s taking this engagement seriously Lexus and she thinks you are too.” Cade stood up. “I have a few things I need to get done. She probably doesn’t want me

Aqua’s POVThe full moon ball was tomorrow so Stewart asked me to help them with last minute tasks for the ball. The organizers were working hard making sure everything was perfect.I didn’t see Lexus at all yesterday and I hoped I wouldn’t see him today either. “I think Prince Lexus was coming on to me.” One of the organizers said.“When?” Stewart asked.“Like a month and a half ago when we first started organizing the ball.” So, before I came here. “He’d stare at me and wave whenever we passed each other. Other workers say he doesn’t even acknowledge them. He even stopped me in the hall once to have a conversation. He said, ‘Maybe I can get some advice from you about how to properly plan a party.’ That was definitely him coming onto me.”Stewart rolled his eyes. “You’re a party planner and he has a wedding coming up.”She

The kids shifted into their human forms and Gray ran to me. “You have to play with us because Kaya and her sister are on one team, so I have to be on the other with mine.” I was surprised to hear Gray call me his sister. “Y-yeah,” I stuttered and got up. We played a few rounds of freeze tag until we got tired out. Polly was tired out first. We all laid down next to each other. “Your sister is fast Gray.” Polly said. “You're fast Aqua.” “It’s because she’s older than us Polly.” Kaya said. “I’m going to be that fast when I’m her age too.” Gray laughed. “You might be.” He looked at me. “Are you coming with us on our picnic Tuesday? We always do something once a week out of the castle and that’s what we’re doing next week.” I smiled. “If our father asks me to come then I will.” My answer made him happy. “My mom said that full siblings and half siblings aren’t the same thing, but I don’t get it. I know my mom isn’t yours, but my Dad is so y

I was in the city hanging out with Arma. We asked Stewart if he wanted to come along but he wasn’t interested. “Are you going to the ball Arma?” I asked.“The only workers who are invited are ones who put a certain number of hours working on planning and setting everything up. Also, live-in workers but I don’t live here, and I fell short seven hours because I had to give one of my shifts away. My mom put together a surprise family day and she insisted that I give my hours away. If not for that I would have had enough to go.”I felt bad and wished there was something I could do. I looked down at my phone and got a text from Cade: You have something waiting here for you. “I have something I need to get at the castle.”Arma flew us back and I met cade in the front. He handed me a box with something attached. “A little late but there’s your invitation.” I should have expected to get my own si

I stared at Cade waiting for him to answer my question about if he was okay with me replacing him as future adviser. He scoffed before answering, “Of course, I am Aqua. It was a little hard to hear but I’m fine with it.” I noticed Vella staring at us from a distance, but I didn’t think too much of it. We walked back to Arma and Stewart. They got drinks and we sat down at a small table. I didn’t want to be drunk during the rejection, so I passed. “Hey.” Calvin said when he sat down at the table. I introduced him to everyone then we got up to dance. The singer they got was really good. They even had other performances planned for every hour. We had watched one when we were sitting before Calvin showed up. “You look beautiful.” I smiled. “Thanks, you look handsome.” When we finished dancing Konn approached us, and I introduced them. Konn introduced me to a few people then they walked off. “You look good Aqua.” He complemented. “Thanks

Quinn’s POVOne of the other kids pushed Zaya down so I tackled him. “Hey stop!” Zaya yelled as we started to fight then jumped in so now we we’re both fighting this kid.The boy shifted into his dragon, so we’d get off him then he shifted back. “Whatever, I don’t want to fight either one of you. If I did I’d hurt Quinn cause she’s part human and sick because of it. Plus, her mom is always watching.”I glared at him and stood up. “I’m not sick because I’m part human.”My sickness was common among both humans and dragon shifters.Zaya spit at him. “She could take you and her mom isn’t always watching, you’re just scared of her mom.” She grabbed my hand and walked towards the pack house. “Sorry the kids here aren’t like the kids in the village you live in.” In the village there were hybrids and other mixtures species kids

In the morning we got ready. “You still haven’t told me how work’s been.”Lexus chuckled. “We’re on vacation, I don’t want to talk about work.” I looked at him seriously. “Fine, work is good. I’m practically running Viv’s business myself. We’re considered partners now.”“What do you even do?” I felt weird that I didn’t know but it’s not like I didn’t try talking about it before.“She’s a noble. Her business is creating work for the people of her kingdom, selling them land, and giving them protection. She works closely with the king and queen too.” I noticed he was feeling admiration for Viv.“How do you feel about Viv?”Lexus sighed. “She’s always been a really good friend, she’s still a really good friend. I enjoy her company and I missed her but not in a sexual or romantic way.” Since we

My mom called me over to talk about something important. “Okay so after a lot of convincing from Konain.” All I could think about was how it annoyed Cade when she called Dad that. “I decided I’m going back home.”I raise my eyebrows. “What? No, you can’t, you love it here-”“To visit, only to visit our family.”I exhaled out of relief. “Oh yeah, they think you’re dead or they did. They saw me ride off on a dragon the last time I saw them, so they probably think that you’re with me or something.”“Are… are my parents still alive?” Mom asked nervously.I nodded. “Grandpa and Grandma are still very much alive. They just sleep a lot and don’t like being bothered.”Mom laughed. “So, they’re the same. So, you were raised by my sister and her husband but no one ever talked about me? Not even your grandparents?&r
The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair CHAPTER 48.5: Future Visions
I did a few more jobs, some required the gems, but most didn’t. At first I was doing jobs that asked for a magic user but now that people knew the current holder was taking jobs they asked for me specifically. My coven went through a lot of the jobs and sorted them for me from least difficult to most difficult. Other covens and sorceress agencies tried to recruit me, but I liked staying with the one who delivered me as a baby and that my mom was a part of. Once I was done I met Cade and Sadia at a small restaurant. “Hey.” I sat down and put my bag under the chair. Cade smiled. “I assumed you’d be late since you’ve been so busy with working.” I shrugged, “I do as much as I can since Gram warned me about how long I should be working a day. I don’t want to overwork myself again. I usually work when Lexus is working.” Sadia was staring at the menu, and she wasn’t saying anything. Cade spoke instead, “How’s he doing working with Viv?” I

Aqua’s POVLexus shook me awake. “Babe, you told me to wake you up whenever you overslept.”I opened my eyes. “It’s hard not to sleep in sometimes.” I sat up. “You were really rough last night.” I blushed. “It makes me want to sleep longer.” I yawned. “And I hate going anywhere with visible hickeys.”I got out of bed naked, but he pulled me back and kissed my mark. Marks are really sensitive if someone else touches our marks the other will feel pain. When we touch each other's marks, we feel… pleasure. “I wish I could go with you today.”I rolled my eyes. “You have to start work don’t you?” I moaned when he kissed my mark again then pulled away and got up.“Yeah I do but I still wish I could go with you.” He got up. “If you get back before me you should start packing.”“Packi

I took a deep breath and got ready to explain. “Fine, I went to go see a friend about a job, but you know that don’t you because you used one of the gemstones to spy on me then you sent Cade.” Aqua glared at me. “You’re avoiding the question. Yes I used one of the gems, but I didn’t send Cade. I told him who you were with and he felt the need to confront you. I told him he didn’t have to go and that I trusted you, but he went anyways.” “Viv put her hand on my shoulder and gave me quick peck on the cheek. That’s all,” I explained. ‘The conversation didn’t sound like that was all,’she thought. “You can hear what you see with your third eye?” I didn’t realize that she could hear our whole conversation, that put me in an awkward position. She sat down on the bed. “Only with the gem, you’re constantly reading my mind which I’m fine with, but I can’t read yours if we’re not together." She sighed. “This is stupid, this isn’t worth fighting over
The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair CHAPTER 47.0: Old friend
Lexus’ POVWe walked into Viv’s office. “True mates?? You're Kidding.” She threw her hands up. “I might have a mage employed who’s strong enough to prevent even a true mate from being able to know.”I sat down in a chair in Viv’s office. “I’m not cheating on my mate Viv. You’re either offering me a position or you’re not.” I cared about Aqua too much to risk losing her. Aqua is all I want, and I finally have her.She frowned and sat at her desk. “Fine but I’m not going to stop trying. I only just took over business for my parents so I probably need you at a high position, that would take a lot of pressure off of m-” She stopped when she saw a portal opened outside.I stood up and walked to the window. “Cade? He can’t be here for me since he hates me. Did you guys plan something?”Viv shook her head. “I haven’t se

The woman Lexus was with stopped when she got to the top of the staircase. “You don’t have to walk so far behind me. You're mated aren’t you? I’ve heard rumors about it, apparently you ran off with the holder and you’re marked. You both are very controversial now.” Lexus chuckled. “Yeah I know. If you knew I might have been marked then why would you touch my shoulder and kiss me?” I didn’t feel good after hearing that someone kissed him, but I didn’t stop watching because I had faith in him. She leaned over the staircase railing. “I kissed your cheek, it’s not a big deal. I just wanted to mess with you. I think I can offer you a job since you are a childhood friend.” She gave an expression of thinking. “You’ve been taught to rule since you were like twelve so I can offer you a job to be in charge of one of our branches.” She walked down the hall. “It’s a shame you’re marked.” “Viv, I’m not here for you to realize your childhood crush. I’m here to find w

Mom and I were on her bed in our pajamas drinking tea, “So is Lexus always high?” Mom asked. We were on the topic of relationships, so I guess that’s why she had to throw that question in. I chuckled nervously. “Only a quarter of the time. More often now that we’re not in the castle anymore. Do you think that’s bad?” Mom shook her head. “I guess it’s fine as long as he does what he needs to do.” She took a sip of her tea then said, “It was just a little bit of a surprise seeing him like that after dinner two weeks ago.” I could understand that. “Mom… have you been keeping up with the news? Everyone’s calling me a trader.” Mom sighed. “Yeah I’ve seen it. Don’t let it get to you Aqua, you’ve been doing good.” I had told her about the little things I was doing for the village I was staying in and the neighboring villages. I think you should start doing bigger things you know. Magic users and spell casters usually take jobs posted online
