The Fairy’s Dragon GuardianChapter 61: The Dark SideCrystal’s POV “Hey, wake up. You can’t sleep like that.”Kian groggily opened his eyes and looked at me with an annoyed expression, “5 minutes… no, 10 minutes.”I lightly kicked him to his shin, “Do you think this is your hotel? Get up. We’ll be leaving.”“Ugh, is this how you treat a hostage? I’m so powerless in front of the two of you.”I raised my eyebrows at him, “If not for that rope, you’re probably hiding with your lord.”“Tsk.”With a wave of my hand, my things were inside the space pouch in an instant.Kian yawned and lazily sat on the floor. Last night, I was so surprised by Oliver that I ran to my room. When I woke up, I came to the scene where Kian was pitifully sleeping on the cold floor. What a way to treat a hostage.I shook my head and made a glass of milk on the kitchen. With a kind heart, I gave it to Kian to drink.“How do you suppose I drink this milk? My hands are tied.”“Then don’t. It won’t be my problem if
Chapter 62: Welcome, Dear Guests.Crystal’s POVFar ahead of us unfolded a sight that I had never seen before. This must be what Kian said to be ‘the dark side’. This must also be where Lord Beike ran to after our fight in that village.The place looked straight out of a fantasy movie. Trees hang in the air with the falling flower petals that brought some sort of sweet scent. At a glance, it looked like any ordinary fairytale land.However, the large palace sitting in the middle of nowhere was covered in a dark fog – thrilling and somewhat scary. But most of all, the big dragons flying in the sky, instead of birds, caught my attention. Oliver also stared at the numerous dragons, surprise in his eyes.“Welcome to our place, dear guests.”Kian walked in front of us and effortlessly broke free from the rope. Ah right, this is their place so they are at their most powerful.Wings protrude from his back, almost as big as the wings of the dragon I once saw in my dream. He flew away majestic
Chapter 63: Coming at the Wrong TimeCrystal’s POV“Our kingdom is situated between the two realms, so it is difficult to find its passage. I hope that Little Kian has been a great help to the two of you.” “Kian kindly showed us the way, so we were able to come here unscathed, Your Majesty.” Oliver put the teacup before his lips and hid a smile. “Is that so? Then I should reward him some time. What do you think fits him?” Even when sitting face to face, it was still difficult to see His Majesty’s face under his pearl headpiece. I kept feeling his gaze on me every turn, and it made me shiver for some reason. Oliver and His Majesty talked more about the most unimportant things, and it was only after hours had passed that I realized something – he was deliberately leading Oliver to another conversation without clearly talking about the matter at hand. I stealthily pinched Oliver’s hand under the table, and when he turned his head to me, I blinked at him, hoping he understood my gest
Chapter 64: A Greater Power at PlayCrystal’s POVOliver twirled my hair and spoke in a nasty husky voice, “What perfume are you using? It’s too sweet.”I blinked my eyes and promptly pushed his body away from me. I removed the blanket on me and got down from the bed, fixing my clothes as I did. What is this? Too seductive ah! A few minutes ago, in the basement…. “Do you hear that?” I asked, anxiety creeping my heart. “What did I tell you?” He said in a matter-of-fact tone and shrugged his shoulders.“Shouldn’t you be thinking about what we should do?” Because he was standing near to me and holding my hands, his other free hand quickly wrapped around my waist and pulled me to him. I had a slow reaction and the moment I realized that, we were staring at each other in close proximity. His brown eyes flickered while he touched my forehead. I wrinkled my eyebrows and asked him, “What are you doing?” Instead of giving me an answer, he also threw me a question, “Don’t you like actin
Chapter 65: Fireworks DisplayOliver’s POVIt took me a long time to figure out things. Why didn’t I realize sooner that all that we’re doing could have been planned by someone else? I took out my phone and dialed a familiar number. After three rings, my call was answered. [I thought you wouldn’t call me anymore.] “This is important. I need you to watch over our teammates, making sure that they are safe, especially Nayara. Call me right away if something happens.”[Aren’t they back for recuperation? They should be safe.]I licked my lips, “I just want to make sure that they’re safe while we’re here.”[Alright, 5 million.]This guy just doesn't want to give things for free, doesn’t he? “Fine.”[Where are you anyway? It sounds like you are somewhere far away.] “That’s it for today. Call me later.”Lucas still wants to say something, but I already hung up the call. With his ability, he should be able to keep them safe. Let’s just hope for the best. I heard the rustle behind me, and
Chapter 66: What Are The Odds? Third Person’s POVTwo shadows in the dark ran sneakily around the palace under the mesmerizing lights of the fireworks. They quietly and swiftly ran through the corridors and hallways, avoiding the patrolling guards. “Hold me tight.”“Slowly. I’m tripping.” Crystal held the hem of her skirt as they ran, but it got caught on the bushes. Annoyed, she yanked it with her hands resulting in it being ripped. The long skirt instantly became a short skirt, and her white legs were revealed. Oliver looked back on her and when she saw this scene, he involuntarily swallowed his dry saliva. “Why did you tear your skirt?” “I couldn’t run with it and got caught in the bushes. Moreover, you were holding my wrist so tightly. Can’t you run slower?” “Ahem, sorry.” When they arrived at a secluded garden, Oliver stopped for a while to let Crystal rest and fix her skirt. Since she couldn’t do anything about it, Crystal took off her skirt all at once, revealing a pair
Chapter 67: SubstituteThird Person’s POV “You look beautiful today.” Oliver’s husky voice echoed in Crystal’s ears, making it red. “Even when ten years had already passed, you were still as when I first met you.” Crystal blinked her eyes trying to stay calm, “What… are you saying?” “I’m just telling the truth,’’ Oliver said as he put her hair behind her ear. “Are you ready for another fun ride?” “Huh?” “Hold me tight.” With that, Oliver conjured another teleportation portal, grabbing Crystal by her waist. A long time has passed, and the captain of the guards is getting antsy. He thought with a grim face, ‘Until when will they do that?’ Irritated, he looked back at the place where Oliver and Crystal were standing, but they were nowhere to be found. They escaped for the second time. The captain couldn’t help but grit his teeth and let out a curse, “Darn it! Let’s look for them!” SWOOSH!There was a loud gust of wind before two people fell from the sky. Oliver was quick to c
Chapter 68: Reconciliation HugCrystal’s POV“In simple words, I was her substitute?” My grip on the glass of water tightened. I kept telling myself to calm down, to use my brain because Oliver is already explaining. Yes, he did tell me about it last time, but this is the first time I am hearing so much. This place, once our home, ignited some memories that I preferred hidden away in the back of my mind. Primrose – I can’t live without you. Its meaning was clear, but to whom was he referring exactly? Other than coming back when he needed to, our relationship back then could never be described as a married couple. At most, we are acquaintances who happened to be married. Regrets? We certainly didn’t have romance in that arranged marriage. So what is this regret all about? “You are not a substitute! Please listen to my explanation first.” I stared at him, “I’m listening.” “The marriage was never finalized. Before my mother went away, she asked me to meet someone named Crystal S
