The Dragon Prince's Thief 15. Tell me lies
(Vera) I gasped. What the hell did he just say? I glared down at him as he chuckled, and I could feel the vibration of his laughter running along my body. His hands were warm on my back, and I could feel the length of his body, naked body, pressed against mine, creating delicious friction. My breasts, protected only by a flimsy dress and no bra, tingled and my nipples pebbled. I was sure he could feel my tightening ni.pples against his chest. My p*ssy turned wet, and I knew he could smell my arousal, when his jade eyes darkened until they became midnight black. A soft moan begged to come out of my lips, as my body begged to rip his boxers away from him and finally, finally take him. “What the hell were you thinking?” I hissed out, finally remembering why I was here in the first place. “What? What did I do? You were the one who broke in, you were the one who tried to attack me in my sleep.” “And you deserve it. The gifts?! What the hell was that about?” “Did you like it?” Is thi
The Dragon Prince's Thief 16. Strings
(Mateo)My whole body felt like it was burning. Shade was clawing from the inside, and I knew he wanted to break free and claim what was his, consequences be damned, and I almost, almost wanted to let him loose. But I knew I couldn’t force this on her. I was not brought up like that.It felt too real, the pain, the heartbreak. So definite.I wasn’t done fighting for her, not yet, but for now, tonight, I didn’t want to be here alone with her. I was worried that I might do something that would change our lives completely.“I-” she hesitated, and I closed my eyes tight. Seeing her face, filled with worry and guilt, wasn’t helping me. She should feel the guilt, but somehow it was not a good feeling to see that look in her eyes.“GO,” my voice came out in a loud growl and then I stiffened when I could smell her. Closer than before. What the f*ck was she still doing here? Why the f*ck wouldn’t she just go away?“I don’t want to hurt you, Prince Mateo.”Prince Mateo. I f*cking hated it.“And
The Dragon Prince's Thief 17. Yes or no
(Vera)“Oh, do come to the ball tomorrow, and then once the ball is over, I will take you to the temple and then-”I hated it. I knew I wanted the rejection, but he didn’t have to be so eager about it, did he?“Then what?” My body was burning with anger and jealousy. I didn’t want his first time with some random Fae wh0- okay, I absolutely didn’t want to call a random woman wh0re, that wasn’t right, and I knew that. But I already hated this phantom Fae, with her wispy, beautiful wings and her delicate curves and magic. “Will you take a Fae to your room?” I grunted. I wanted to tie him down and prove to him that I would be better than any Fae ever could be.F*ck No!I hated that when he talked about finding a Fae girl. Ugh. Faes! I didn’t want those bitches near my-"Careful, Vera. Your green is showing. Dark green, too...”I ignored the dragon.I glared at his back as he turned to me and grabbed my hands, as if it was completely normal to hold hands after talking about rejection. His

“Love in its essence is spiritual fire.” — Seneca ---- (Vera) End of the world... I sighed softly as I stared into his glinting eyes. The way he was looking at me, so tender, so loving... it twisted my heart, and it made me feel edgy. My skin prickled in awareness. I wanted to flee and hide and- It was the year-old fear of letting a person in. I knew, even now, that Mateo would be more than what my heart could handle. He already was. "But he will also be everything your heart desires! The way he talks to you...” Yes. The way he talked to me... I had never thought I was someone who would love to hear such blatant admission on how much he already liked me. I would have made a puking face if Ezra had ever said it, but when Mateo said that, I felt like I wanted to hear him say things like that, forever, but it was also alarming, the feeling of utter helplessness and neediness. I had never needed anyone much in my life, and I preferred it that way. And yes, it immediately made me
The Dragon Prince's Thief 19. Chances
Broken souls need more than a second to heal! I have a million pieces of my soul within. - Vera!----(Mateo)“Yes, I am stealing it for you,” she whispered as she gazed at the stone, her eyes gleaming. It reminded me of the first night we met. Five years ago.I stared at the eye of Sabius, and smiled at Vera. I couldn’t help it. This was... actually better than what I had hoped, and my heart was still thundering, and I loved how excited she looked when she was climbing the water line, as if it was the most amazing thing in the world.She looked young, radiant and she would put, even the moon to shame!She looked without the worry she often carried with her. Free of the weights that pulled her down.I loved it. I loved her enthusiasm.“How very romantic,” I muttered as I fully turned towards her. “This is the best date I have ever had.”“Have you even gone on dates?” She wrinkled her nose as she scanned me, and her eyes stopped at my still erect c.ock. It was painfully obvious, how mu
The Dragon Prince's Thief 20. Murder in my mind
"The venom clamours of a jealous woman poison more deadly than a mad dog’s tooth." -William Shakespeare----(Vera)I woke up to the hushed whispers and shuffling footsteps. My head pounded as I rubbed my eyes with a wince.It was a terrible, terrible night and I had no one to blame but myself.After Mateo walked out and flew away, leaving my stomach in tangled knots, I almost got caught, but I was quicker than and got away, of course, after stealing the eye of Sabius, once again.I almost went to the palace, too, but then I talked myself out if it. I knew there was no use keep picking up the wound.He was right, but every inch in my body begged even when my brain warned me against it.I hated it. I hated every second of that torture.I ran all the way to my home, because I knew if I allowed Nova to come, she wouldn’t hesitate to go and find the prince and tell him about things he didn’t need to know.She was a freaking traitor, and that was what she was, oh, and also terribly angry w
The Dragon Prince's Thief 21. Distraction
"She may be broken for a while, but that’s ok. She’s working on her, cause she’s not one to leave a mess lying around." – JM Storm ----- (Vera) "I don’t. Do I know you?” he said. His voice felt blank, emotionless. I jerked back as if he had just punched me. His eyes flicked to meet mine for a second before he shook his head and turned to fucking Faith. If I could rip her heart off... “You don’t know me?” I blinked at him, irritated and angry. And hurt. I knew he was angry, but... here I was, practically begging and- "Begging? I haven’t even heard a please!” my dragon said with a huff. “You know what I am talking about,” I huffed. Suddenly, Nova was team Mateo, through and through. Such a traitor, my dragon was. I didn’t like it, not one bit. I didn’t like the feeling of anger and jealousy in me, or the overwhelming feeling to prove to him and myself that I had power over him, just as he had over me. I didn’t like the indifference in his eyes, nor did I like the look of warmth w
The Dragon Prince's Thief 22. Fight or flight
“Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.” ― Sun Tzu ---- (Vera) I looked at Mateo and shook my head as my heart twisted weirdly. I felt a momentary flash of panic. No. I didn’t want him anywhere near danger. Just thinking about it was creating a big fucking ball of fear in my stomach, and this was one of the few reasons I didn’t want him in the first place. “Go, Mateo, go with your guards. I will be alright. Okay. You should go... you must-” He pressed a finger against my lips, cutting me off. The guards looked at us weirdly before one of them cleared his throat. “Prince, you really should come. Nobody knows what is going on here... you are not safe here,” the guard spoke in an urgent voice. “The queen asked me to fetch you and I shall-” Mateo waved his hand, cutting the man off. “And I am just the same as everybody else. I can’t run away like a coward, Jace. Please, make sure mother and Amyra is safe,” he whispered worriedly, and the guard looked conflict

Warning: This is the same scene from last chapter, from Vera's pov. It is not officially a different chapter. It is just the same scene told from Vera's perspective. If you don't want to read, do not read.This chapter will not clear everything up, because like I said, I still have another book to write.With that being said, go on, and you will see some of you confusions answered here. ONLY SOME, though. Wink, wink.***(Vera) I saw Orna's body going still in my arms as her eyes stared straight into mine. There was no anger left in her eyes, and mine, as well. I gently closed her eyes as I looked at her.I could hear her softly reading the stories to me. Soft and gentle. Her eyes would always be fierce though. I remembered the marks on that special book. She called it her special book. I had never seen a book like that anywhere else. One time when I asked Orna about it, she said there was no other book like this in the entire universe."Sleep tight, auntie. May you find your peace i
The Dragon Prince's Thief 72. Queen
(Mateo) The dragons were vicious, but Shade was just as vicious. He bit, tore and fought like the he was possessed.I was worried about Vera, though. I heard the growls and roars and ear-splitting cries, but Shade couldn't get away from the dragons continuously attacking Raek and him.When I saw Vera going into the clearing and Orna's dragon following her, my heart fell to my stomach. I was nervous, agitated. Shade tried to break away from the dragons around us, but I just couldn't. They were fast, fierce and unrelenting.I had a feeling they wanted to keep us away from Orna and Vera for whatever's reason they had."Don't worry, she can take care of herself," Shade said as he took a swing at a massive green dragon. She was quick, and she was ruthless, but Shade was hungry for blood. "I am going to kill this bitch and bury her in her own blood," he hissed with anger as he wrapped his tail around the massive Black and yellow dragon's leg and tugged. The dragon roared as she twisted awa
The Dragon Prince's Thief 71. Beginning of an end
(Vera) Orna shrunk her nose, her eyes flashing in irritation."Just hand me the crown, Vera." I looked at the woman I had once loved with everything. I loved her just as much as I loved my mother. I looked more like her than my own parents. "I don't want to hurt you. I never wanted to-"I scoffed. "Liar."She gave me a frustrated groan.I couldn't forget the nights she sat by my bed, reading me stories and how much I enjoyed every moment I spent with her. Now, there was nothing between us. Only this chasm of anger and rage and bitterness. She would never understand why I hated her so much. Not just because she used me, but because she chose something else over me. Not because she wanted the crown, but because she wanted it, knowing that my death was the payment for her power.Was she that power hungry?I shook my head with a glare in her direction. "Why? I would be dead either way, wouldn't I? You won't care what happened to me. As long as you get your power, you have no qualms about
The Dragon Prince's Thief 70. Face to face
(Vera) "Your queen is dying.""NO. I am not." Nova looked smug as hell. My claws lengthened as I looked around the room, my eyes assessing everyone. I didn't know who talked, but I had a feeling they were hiding in the crowd.I closed my eyes as I felt the magic of the crown. A soft chant left my lips. "Please protect them, Freyr," I whispered as I shook my head.There was another loud, thunderous explosion that rocked the ballroom, causing the chandeliers to sway and the guests to scream in terror. I stood up, my heart jolting in anger. I had anticipated this, but it still made me angry.Chaos erupted around as people scattered away from their seat and clamored around in fear. There was too much noise, too many people, but I knew that I had to stay calm. I looked at my family and friends in the front of the line and they all nodded as I saw them moving between the panicked people, trying to talk to them and calm them.Mateo immediately stepped in front of me, shielding me from harm,
The Dragon Prince's Thief 69. The Coronation
(Vera) "You look like a queen. You are a queen." Amyra said as she handed me a box full of accessories that looked like it would cost me a lifetime to pay for that. Oh, yeah, no, I could just steal some Euvens and pay them back in a blink."Oh bitch," Nova said with a smile.Faye and Bianca helped me with the necklaces and rings and bracelets. I was shining, and my heart was dancing. It looked beautiful. I looked beautiful."I am grateful to have met you when I was just sixteen. It was destiny, Vera. And I am grateful to Maseir for that one moment in my life that had gone right despite every bad thing," she said as she hugged me sideways and wiped her eyes. It made me want to cry too."Bitch, I am not going to go in front of everyone with black stain on my cheeks," I teased Faye and she let out a quick burst of laughter.Tatienna laughed as she handed me something. "This is what I gave Esmeralda when she become my son's queen. Now it is yours." It was a beautiful hairclip with emeral
The Dragon Prince's Thief 68. Child's Play
(Orna) "So Estrild said to Sabius, I will come back a million times, even after death. I will destroy everything you have built, and then Draconia will be mine. Her voice rang above the silence of the night. Sabius cut his fingers on the crown's sharp edge and looked at Estrild's vanishing figure. She wasn't really there, but he could feel the ice running through his body, despite the fire that was always burning inside him." I read from the book, and the girl grumbled under her breath, pushing her plate back. I ignored her as I turned the page. "With this blood and the last of my daughter's blood, I bind your daughters' powers to the crown. As long as the magic hums in the crown, as long as Azura's blood runs through the veins of her children, you will never get what you want."Estrild's laughter rang out as she watched her three daughters grabbing on to their stomachs. The pain in their eyes was evident. She felt their pain as if it was hers.""They deserve the pain," Lili said as
The Dragon Prince's Thief 67. Ours
(Vera) I shook my head with a growl as I wiped my tears away. I was done crying. No. I wouldn't cry anymore. I would make Orna cry.Mateo had a troubled look on his face when the same guard ran towards us again."They are here," the guard said."Who is here?" Mateo asked as he looked at him."Lord and lady of the clan Red Thunder. Their family too."That made me look up. Mateo stood up and gave me his hand. "Let's go see now, okay? Don't jump to a conclusion before here and there."When we walked out, the queen also joined us. The queen hugged Arax's mother before she turned to his father."You can live here, Rosalie, Kenneth, as long as you want. I am so sorry you lost your home. We will bring them to justice."Rosalie Red, Arax and Marvis's mother looked at the queen, her eyes shining in gratefulness. "I know, Esmeralda. We are fine, thanks to Sun God. We are so sorry for my daughter's part in this.""She was only a young girl who had been brainwashed. I am sorry you lost her. Come
The Dragon Prince's Thief 66. Plan B
(Vera) My fingers trembled as Mateo grabbed the note from my hands.Blood. Lili's blood.Every bone in my body burned in rage. If I saw Orna now, she would die a painful death. I wouldn't spare her, not at all. Mateo growled as he finished reading the note."Monster," he said with a dark rumbling growl. "How can she play with a little girl?"Oh, yes, she would. She didn't have any qualms about using a little girl to succeed in her plans."Lili is another one of her pawns," I hissed. "Lili is the pawn she made to control me."Amyra and Mateo nodded."She is undoubtedly smart," Amyra said with a frown."She is. She has always been."Orna didn't decide to steal the crown out of nowhere. No, it wasn't random. Nothing she had done was random. Everything was moved in such a way that when we came to this place we were in right now, she would have the King, that she would be the one calling check mate.She didn't decide to send Ezra and Lili to me, just for the heck of it. No."She knew Lili
The Dragon Prince's Thief 65. Heartbreaks
(Blaine) The anger inside me was like a roaring sea and I feared that it might destroy me, destroy everything in my path.I wanted to burn everything down. As Raek soared above the cloud, his massive wings flapping in a frenzied motion, I wanted to ask him to let out his anger.He felt agitated and restless too.Mateo's dragon, Shade, followed us close behind. I was grateful he was accompanying me. I knew I couldn't do this alone.I needed Mateo here with me. My eyes burned from the tears I didn't want to shed. Not yet. No. If I cried now, it would mean that she was no more. I didn't want to believe that.She was my best friend, and I made a mistake when I didn't look for her when she was first gone. I should have. This would stay with me, this immense guilt, all through my life, if she was really gone, and if we had absolute proof.I was so angry back then, but now, I regret my every decision, my every action. She didn't deserve that from me, her best friend.When she suddenly disap
