"Yes" Drake agreed.
Dillon nodded his head in understanding. The mature way he thought about the safety of his people and the realms is outstanding and so selfless.
Dillon has new found respect for Drake. He didn't understand why so many people respect Drake so much. He understood it now perfectly.
'Respect should be earned son, it's not just given looking at the crown on your head' his father used to tell him so many times.
But Dillon never understood the true meaning behind those words. He always nodded his head in agreement, to sayisfy his father.
'They look at my crown and they will bow to me' I always thought in my head.
But I never could understand that they are bowing to the crown, but not to me as a person. After looking at Drake and the way he earned everyones respect with being humble and considerate, despite being so powerful, Dillon understood what his father truly meant.
Be humble despite being powerfull. He is not rude or
There is still an hour or so left for the sunrise. Drake brought the herb he and Dillon collected from the mountains to the healers.The healers and Basil were not at all confident that Drake would be able to find the antidote. This kind of poison is rare and its antidote is scarce.So they were not at all positive that Drake might be able to find the antidote and bring it back on time.They were pleasantly surprised to find him bringing the antidote to save the King. Basil saw his dedication to save the king and the responsibility he took over on his shoulders, to catch the killer as well."Will he be fine?" Drake asked Basil, looking at the Unconscious winter king."He will be fine. You proved your loyalty time and again to the royal family. They are really lucky to find a person like you" Basil couldn't help but praise Drake."My pleasure" Drake replied politely.Alpine has tears of happiness in his eyes. Avery finally stopped crying for
Drake is dreaming about all the fae calling him 'Your highness' and he couldn't find Nyra anywhere. He is calling for her, and looking everywhere, for her, but she couldn't find her anywhere and he started to get panicked.The dream is so realistic, that he searched for Nyra beside him with his palm, and found the bed empty. The place beside him is still warm, indicating that she was here not very long time ago.Drake opened his eyes and found the bed really empty. He started to panic with fear for her safety.'Where is she?' he thought worriedly.He slipped off the bed and was about to go in search of her when the room door opened and she walked in."Baby? Where did you go? You know it is not safe to go out alone like this right?" Drake asked her worried.Nyra looked at the man, who managed to capture her heart and saved her countless times, and now he even saved her father's life.She cannot thank him enough. She owes him her life.S
Drake and Nyra are lying on her bed after their heavy make-out session. Drake doesn't want to take it any further until she could remember their past.He knows she was angry with him when she decided to come to the Fairy with her father. He knows she likes him now, but he is not sure how she would react, once remember everything.He couldn't stop himself from touching her when she is near. She is his drug, whom he is addicted to. He might not live with his daily dose of her.He really feels happy and content with her almost naked in his arms and a satisfied smile playing on her lips.Nyra has only her panties on. Drake did some pleasurable things to her body, that made her burst out with pleasure.She is currently wrapped in his arms, with her head laid on his naked torso, and her body wrapped around him.Drake is softly caressing her spine, absentmindedly.His mind is playing everything that happened on the ball. He couldn't digest th
'Drake is injured?' Nyra is thinking.'Where? Where is the injury at? I didn't find any injury on him this morning' she thought with confusion."Where is he injured? I mean, his hands, legs, stomach, where?" Nyra asked."On the left side of his chest" Lily replied.'Left side? But I laid my head on his chest, I didn't find any injury there. Not even a trace of it' Nyra thought."Who saw him getting injured?" Nyra asked.Lily is confused about this line of questioning from the princess. But she thought nothing about it and answered the princess."One of our guards saw that. He was standing just behind Sir Drake, when that happened" Lily answered.'Behind Drake? Surely he must have mistaken. I saw Drake this morning. He was fine, without a trace of any injuries' Nyra shook her head with a smile.'That guard must be mistaken' she decided.Drake was waiting outside her room for her. He is planning to leave her with her parents
Alvin looked at Drake, who is sitting beside him on the bed."Thank you young man, For saving my life" Alvin expressed his gratitude.Drake is taken aback by his words."You don't have to thank me King Alvin. It's my duty. I am glad you are recovering now." Drake said politely.Alvin smiled at his words."Your duty is to protect only Nyra. Not me or the people in my Kingdom. I saw how you took charge of the situation and prevented it from going to worst. You prevented the Chaos and gave everyone a purpuse to do their duties. Nyra is still young and I don't think my brother would have managed it the way like you did. You deserve much more than a thank you" Alvin expressed.Drake is not used to being complemented like this. People would have complemented him, if he gave them a chance. But he is a very private person and prefers the keep his life private, as much as he can.He is used to dealing with clients for business purposes and that is th
She looked at Drake with wide fear filled eyes, with a deer caught in the head lights look.'Drake?' she said through their mindlink.'This tricky old man' Drake muttered through their link."I could ask your Uncle to step in, but he is old and he cannot take this huge responsibility. As the princess of the winter Realm, you are next in line and you are expected to take the responsibility after me. So why not start from now onwards?" Alvin continued, as if he didn't see Nyra giving Drake shocked and confused looks.'Oh god, Drake, I am scared' Nyra confessed throught their link.She is new to the Fairy and she is not used to anything. She is just adjusting, to this place and people, and her father is asking her to become their queen? It's not fair, she knows that, but she cannot refuse to take the responsibility.Nyra's panic is seeping through their link and Drake could feel the tension rolling off of her.'Damn it' he cursed inside his hea
"But how did you find out?" Avery asked in confusion.Alvin remembered what he did a couple of days ago.The book on fairy fire told him, only Nyra's true mate can balance the fairy fire that was gifted to her, with his own power. But he was blindsided by his love for his daughter and misconceptions on the dragons, that he started to believe, all the dragons are bad.Hence he took Nyra away from the human world, with out protecting her memories. He wanted to wipe all the memories of her mate from her mind and give her a new life with some one else of his choosing.But then, the fairy fire showed itself and he began to panic. It's not possible to balance the fairy fire by anyone. It needs a special person born to do that.That special person for Nyra is Drake."I was very happy that I found a capable husband for Nyra in Drake. Once a book in the palace library told me, that only her true mate is suitable for our Nyra. But I didn't liste
Dillon tagged along with Drake in to the Dungeons.Drake did not find any malicious thoughts in Dillon's eyes, so he let him tag along."Did he opened his mouth?" Drake asked Dale."No, we tortured him and he even fainted a couple of times with pain. But he refused to open his mouth." Dale revealed.Drake looked at Dhari, who is bloody and is barely concious."Bring hot salt water along with black pepper powder" Drake ordered a guard.Dale and Dillon understood what Drake is planning.Dhari paled even more."Please don't" he begged Drake."You can avoid all this if you tell us the name of the person behind you. I will let you go. I won't kill you" Drake told Dhari.Dhari hung his head and didn't reply."So you still wanted to protect your owner?" Drake asked Dhari with ridicule."I don't have any owner's. I am my own person" Dhari said proudly.Drake laughed mocking Dhari."Really
Drake woke up from his dream, where he saw Nyra running towards him amid wild colorful fae flowers, holding their son's hand, who looked just like Drake. He loved that dream so much, that a longing for that to come true began in his heart. But to his surprise, he saw Nyra smiling at him as soon as he was awake. "Nyra?" he touched her face to confirm if it's reality or a dream. "Drake" she whispered softly. With the soft morning light streaming from the window, her face is looking angelic. He missed her so much so that, he pulled her into a tight hug. "I missed you Nyra. I missed you so much. Do you know how scared I was when that Koni stabbed you? That was the worst moment of my life. I never wanted to see you like that ever again. I will try everything I can to protect you and our son from harm's way. I am sorry that I failed you Nyra. I am so sorry" he confessed with his face buried in her neck and breathing in her scent.
Like Drake instructed, the guards began to whip Koni one at a time. Soon the common public began to volunteer. Koni could hold back his cries for the first two days. But after that, his body became sensitive and he could no longer hold back his cries of pain. What's worst is that, if someone is annoyed with something, they would come and whip Koni until they feel better. They don't let him eat properly or sleep properly. Whenever they feel like it, anyone could come and whip him senselessly, until he would pass out with pain. He tried to pretend that he passed out. But that lasted only an hour. They soon figured that he is acting, so now they are sparing him even he became unconscious. After 1 week of this torture, Koni began to pray to the fairy goddess that the princess should wake up soon. He no longer can bear this torture. "Please forgive me and let the princess wake up" he began to beg the goddess loudly when he could
Everyone bowed to their new king with respect. They were really happy to see that he is awake and healthy again. Dale couldn't contain his happiness after looking at Drake. "I am really happy that you are awake your highness" Dale said truthfully. Drake nodded his head, but he couldn't muster up a smile. Nyra is still in a coma, and he is angry over himself for letting Koni that close to her. 'I failed her and now she is paying the price' she thought with regret. "Let's go" Drake muttered and walked towards the dungeons with a purpose. As soon as he entered the dungeon, he saw two guards bringing George's body out of his cell. When they noticed Drake, they bowed their head. Koni is glaring daggers at Drake. "You are awake?" Koni asked with malice. Drake did not answer him. He motioned Dale to unlock the cell. Koni always thinks that Dragons are beneath him. So he looked down upon Drake as if he i
Koni is in the dark cold dungeon in the winter Realm. After he was caught, he was thrown in the dungeon. No one came to talk to him or interrogate him. Everyone is worried about their king and queen. "You finally did it" George commented from the cell beside Koni's. Koni has been after Nyra since the day he found out that, she was blessed with the fairy fire. He is so crazed out of his mind, that he lost all sense of rationality and the last ounce of empathy he had. Nyra is pregnant. Everyone would be considerate towards a pregnant woman. But all Koni could see is the powers she possessed. His lust for the powers of the dragon Relic is so vast, that he didn't think for a second before stabbing her with a knife. "I did" Koni answered George's comment, even though George was not expecting one. "I never stopped for a moment to think about what I am doing. If I did, then I would have realized that what I am doin
The healers, Roland, Mason, Alvin, Avery, Alpine, Dale, Dhari, Shawn, and his mate Anna, everyone rushed towards the couple, who are lying unconscious on the ground. They allowed the healers to check Nyra and Drake. To everyone's shock, Nyra's wound is healed completely. There is no scar or any mark to show that she was stabbed a few minutes ago. "Oh dear goddess" the healer murmured with shock. He checked her vitals and the baby's condition. To his shock, everything is normal, except her pulse. Her pulse rate is lower than usual but not too much for them to get concerned about. They checked Drake, but everything is fine with him as well. The healers murmured among themselves in hushed whispers. Alvin, Avery, and the others became concerned. They were anxious to know what happened to Drake and Nyra. Even they can see the wound on Nyra's body disappeared. But then again, why is she not waking up. What happene
Draco kept snarling at everyone who tried to approach them. No one is powerful enough to go against him and win. They cannot even contain him for a couple of minutes to let a healer treat Nyra. Alvin, Avery, and Alpine are worried for Nyra. "Drake has to take control and snap out of his grief long enough for a healer to look at Nyra. If he doesn't, then we might lose our daughter forever" Avery sobbed with pain. She can only look at the blood that is polling all around her body. As Draco is hiding Nyra behind his wings, none of them can see how is Nyra doing. Mason and Roland heard Avery's words and they decided to go and talk to Draco. Draco snarled at Roland and Mason when they tried to approach him and Nyra. "Draco, you need to let Drake take control. Nyra needs a healer now. Only a healer can save her. The more we delay, the more the chances of her losing her life. Think about what we are trying to tell you" Roland tried to reason
As the priest started to read the scroll, a light appeared near the joining of their hands. It's not uncomfortable or painful. But it's just a soft glow, letting the people know that she accepts this couple's wedding and is blessing them with her light. The light usually stays near the joining of their hands. It will not travel upwards slowly covering the couple as a whole. But with Drake and Nyra, the light slowly began to move up the length of their hands, until it's covering their bodies entirely, making the people around them look at the light but not the couple. Everyone gasped, even the priest was shocked. But he didn't stop reading the scroll. But the words on the Scroll multiplied by two right in front of his eyes. He turned his head to look at the goddess beside him and she nodded her head. So he continued reading whatever words appeared on the scroll. The Goddess is marking the couple as her first chosen protector and his mate by usi
On the day of the wedding, the groom and his friends departed to the fairy Goddess temple earlier than the bridal party. The groom, his friends Mason, Dillon, Shawn, and his wife Anna, along with Drake's father Roland and his fiancee are the few important people who accompanied Drake. Half the warriors stayed back to accompany the bride and half of them accompanied Drake. Drake is wearing a white dress, which consists of a white breaches, a white undershirt, and a lavish white overcoat studded with crystals and gems. His hair is combed back and away from his face. He is looking more handsome than ever. Blaze Black sent a message wishing the new couple a very happy married life. He also sent that he couldn't be able to attend the wedding because of his issues. When Drake read the message, he frowned. 'I hope it's not serious' he wished. On the other hand, Nyra is getting ready to depart from the palace.
Koni searched for George everwhere he could. But came back empty handed. Koni began to get frustrated. He needs the help of someone who could shift to get to the place where he wants. 'Where is he? Did he leave everything midway? What happened? Did he take money from them and left me? Is he helping them to find me?' Koni began to suspect. But he don't have any proof to consider his thinking as true. But he cannot do anything about it either. So he decided to plan something and kidnap Nyra by himself. 'I worked alone for all these years. I can do it again. It's waste to depend on anyone to do my work' he thought. With that thought in mind, he decided to device a plan to Kidnap Nyra. He decided the day of the wedding is the best day for him to kidnap her. Even though he cannot shift, he can still use his abilities to kidnap her. He will hide behind that statue in the dark Realm for two days and then he would come back and hid
