It's almost past the office hours, but still, there is no message from Drake. Nyra turned off her computer and decided to go and check on Drake. He told her he had meetings lined up till evening.
'Is he not finished yet?' She thought and made the short distance towards his office.
After 'Roland' left, which he insisted Nyra to call him as, Nyra finished her work. She didn't hear from Mason after their lunch either.
Roland was easy to get along with, and his sense of humor is off the charts. He is not at all scary as she previously expected. She enjoyed his company immensely.
When she reached Drake's office in just a couple of minutes, she noticed Steve typing something off in his keyboard.
"Hey Steve" Nyra greeted the vampire.
Steve is busy with all the work which was carried over from the previous day. He didn't notice Miss Adams. When she greeted him, he looked up and smiled at the beautiful human, whom his boss likes.
"Hello, Miss A
After Nyra reached the Hamilton Mansion, she found Douglas waiting for her. She looked at him, but couldn't muster the strength to talk to him.She felt like, they are now strangers after their confrontation from last night. So she ignored him and passed by him to go inside the Mansion.Douglas wanted to talk to her. But he is hesitant. After last night, it is clear what she thinks about him.But he has to talk to her before she drifted off too far away from them. So he took a deep breath before calling her name."Nyra" he called her.Nyra was stunned when her father called her name.'Did he have any other vile things to talk to her about?' She thought angrily.She is more sad than angry. How can he talk to her like this?"Yes?" She turned around and faced him masking her original feelings.Douglas looked at her impassive face and felt a pang of regret in his heart."I need to talk to you about something," he to
Nyra stood under the shower even after the water turned cold. But the cold water hitting her body is not at all bothering her. She barely felt it.The thing which is ripping her apart is the fact that she is an orphan. The life she lived for the past 19 years is a lie. No wonder Douglas never really cared about her.She was running after him for his love and attention, but it turns out, he is not her father at all. He is letting her stay with his mother because he pities her."I am an orphan. My father is not my father, my grandmother is not really mine either. I have nobody. I am an Orphan" Nyra kept repeating those words again and again.She lost track of how long she stayed under the cold spray of water. Her skin became wrinkled and she is ice cold to touch. But she is not feeling anything at all.Her mind and heart are stuck in the fact that she has no one and she is an Orphan."How is she doing?" Barbara asked Douglas."She
"Nyra" Drake shook her a little when she is not responding at all.Her eyes are open and unblinking, and she is looking blankly into space."Nyra, baby look at me," he said softly.She is so sad and heartbroken, she did not respond to his soft coaxing."Look at me," he said firmly.She neither blinked nor responded to him in any way."Nyra" Drake snapped loudly.Nyra flinched and blinked her eyes rapidly.She looked at Drake and her eyes welled up with tears, looking into his familiar comforting face."Please don't cry, baby. It's making me sad looking at you like this" he said softly, making her cry even harder."I am an Orphan Drake. My entire life is a lie" she cried out, her voice hoarse.Drake's heart clenched painfully at her heart-wrenching sobs."Who said you are an Orphan?" he demanded."My da. I mean Douglas said, he is not my father" she whispered sadly."If he is not your father, then how
The next morning, Nyra woke up just like the previous day. Wrapped up in Drake's arms. His thick arm wrapped around her bare waist, as her tank top rode up again in her sleep.'Did I started to sleepwalk?' She thought bewildered.She roughly pushed his hand away and went back to her own room. After showering and changing, she went to cook breakfast.She chattered a little with Emma, who talks a mile a minute. But the girl is sweet and Nyra enjoys her company."It's boring without you staying by my side all day. But I am really happy for you.." Emma was talking nonstop and Nyra was just listening with a small amused smile on her lips."You don't worry, I will be by your side on the weekends" Nyra joked, making Emma giggle.After Nyra was done, she said goodbye to Emma and left the kitchen with a steaming coffee for Drake.She saw Douglas looking at her with uneasiness. Everything she learned is still fresh in her mind. Even though Drak
After the doctor checked Nyra, he gave her some flu medicines and told her to rest. Drake helped her put of her formal wear and dressed her up in one of his t-shirts.Douglas was feeling bad about all of this. He is blaming himself for her sickness. If it's not for him dumping all of that on her head so suddenly, then she might have been fine now.He asked his wife to prepare some soup for Nyra which he bought up to their room. Nyra was sleeping in Mr. Hamilton's room, which worried Douglas a lot.He is worried that, Nyra might end up like her mother. Pregnant and left alone by the one responsible for it.He doesn't want the same thing happening to Nyra. He is scared of Drake to question his intention towards Nyra. But his instincts to protect Nyra was much stronger this time, propelled by his guilt. So he decided to ask Mr. Hamilton to leave Nyra alone.He talked to his wife about it and she too agreed with his decision. The curtain of jealousy and ang
The next morning, Nyra is feeling much better. She woke up much like the same way she is waking up these days.Spooned by Drake, with his strong arm wrapped around her naked waist. The only difference this time is that she is wearing one of his t-shirts, which is now resting under her bare breasts.Today, she didn't pull away or got irritated. Somehow, she understood this wood to be a daily routine.Instead, she rested her palm over his, surprising Drake.She remembers falling asleep on her desk yesterday. Drake must have found her and brought her home."Feeling better?" he asked softly."Hmm," she hummed, still a little sleepy."Why didn't you tell me that you are not well?" he asked her.Nyra remained quiet for a beat before replying."I don't want to worry about me" she agreed.Drake was quiet for a few moments.'Did she doesn't want to worry about me because she likes me? Or because she has someone else
Nyra's phone rang when she was still lying down beside Drake, in deep thoughts. Drake is lazily caressing her mid rift with his knuckles.She jumped a little at the sudden sound.She reached over and looked at the caller ID and sat up immediately."Who is it?" Drake asked, noticing her alarmed look."Roland, I mean your father" she replied just before she answered the call."Good morning Roland" she greeted with a genuine smile, even though he couldn't see her."Good morning Nyra. I hope I am not disturbing you" Roland said.Drake heard it with his sensitive hearing and was about to answer his father when Nyra glared at him.He immediately sealed his lips with his thumb and index finger."No, no Roland. You are not" she assured him."Good, I took the liberty to appoint an assistant for you" Roland informed."Assistant?" Nyra asked in shock."Yes, darling" Roland replied."But I don't need an assistant Rola
Caroline is feeling triumphant as she steps inside the Hamilton group. Sarah has devised a plan to through that human girl out of the Hamilton group.'If she is here close to Drake, then she can seduce him and make him her mate' Caroline thought smugly.But Nyra has other plans laid out for Caroline. She wants to send her away packing within two days.Caroline knows she will be working as an assistant to a chief executive. But Roland intentionally didn't mention her boss's name.When Caroline reported on the top floor, in her boss's office, she was horrified looking at the human girl sitting there with a smug smile plastered on her face."You?" Caroline sneered at the human girl with distaste."Yes, it's me. You should learn to address your boss with respect" Nyra told Caroline.Caroline looked irritated."How can you be my boss? I don't want to work under a human" Caroline snapped before walking out of Nyra's office.Ny
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
