When Koni heard that Dhari must have taken a loyalty oath, he was stunned.
"Are you sure that he has taken a loyalty oath for them?" Koni asked George.
George is not completely sure. But he is guessing that must be the case. If not, it's impossible to stay alive in the winter realm after trying to kill the princess.
"I am not sure. But what can be the possibility of Dhari staying there even after being imprisoned and tortured for answers? Don't you think something must have happened to make him decide that he should stay there?" George pointed out.
Koni is in confusion. His mind is not accepting that Dhari is loyal to the winter throne.
When Koni is silent, George pointed another fact.
"King Drake loves his mate to bits. He will not let anything happen to her on his watch. He saved her from Dhari's dagger and imprisoned Dhari. If there is still any threat from Dhari, do you think he would let him stay close to her? Do you t
Alpine is surely not expecting what Drake was about to ask him. He wants Drake to stay here as much as his brother and Nyra does. So he is surprised when he heard Drake's request."I want your help to regain Nyra's memories" Drake asked, shocking Alpine."What? But why so suddenly? They will come back on their own Accord" Alpine argued.Drake sighed and shook his head.Alpine dosen't know what happened in the summer palace last night. Not even Alvin does. As Drake still believes that Alvin dosen't know that he is a dragon, he couldn't actually tell him everything. So that leaves Alpine, who knows everything since the beginning."Because things are getting complicated. Me and Mason are Dragons. We are bound by certain rules laid down for us by our Dragon Elders. We cannot go against them for everything. Coming here is onesuch rule, which we didn't care about. It's forbidden for any dragon to come in to the Fairy. But I decided to come here anyway, becaus
After Drake left, Alpine sat there in a daze.He is thinking about everything Drake just said and the work he promised to help him with."I don't want them to go back to the human world. But the situation they are in a mess. What can I do? I promised that I will help him. But the moment Nyra regains her memories, they will be gone. Oh dear fairy goddess, please help us" Alpine prayed wholeheartedly.The book on the fairy fire came to life and began the hover in the air in front of Alpine.Alpine is startled by the sudden appearance of the book."You don't have to do anything. The princess already regained her memories. But she is hiding that truth from everyone. She doesn't want to go back to the human world. So she is bidding her time and is hoping that his highness Drake would come into his senses and agree to stay here with her" the book told Alpine in a deep monotonous voice.Alpine is shocked to hear that."What? She already regained he
No one noticed Nyra standing in the middle of the room looking at Douglas and Roland sadly.She never once considered how Roland would be feeling after Drake dissapeared to the Fairy in search of her.She was so busy in her new life, that she didn't bothered to think from his side. Drake is his only son. After he lost his wife and the way he had to endure his second wife, who forced herself into his life, he sufferered alot.Hus only reprive was Drake. Now that Drake is in the Fairy, Roland must be feeling lonely.She didn't remember anything initially. But after she regained her memories, she had her own issues to deal with.But now, after looking at Roland, she is feeling guilty.Then heard Douglas confessing that she missed her too. Tears prickled in her eyes. She longed for his affection her entire life, but she never understood his reluctance for not showing his love for her openly.He was trying not to hurt his mate as well as me
"Drake didn't know that you are coming here? What happened Nyra? Is there anything wrong?" Roland asked worriedly."No, nothing like that. I need to talk to you. So I came here alone" Nyra confessed.Douglas and Roland are confused."You came here to talk to me alone, so that Drake wouldn't know what we talked about. Isn't it? You want to keep what ever this is a secret from Drake. Did I get this correct so far?" Roland asked with a frown.Nyra know how it looks when he said everything out loud. Yes, she is keeping secrets from Drake. But it's to save their relationship.Douglas became worried when he heard Roland."Nyra? Tell me everything is ok with you and Drake. You are making me worried" he said with a worried frown.Nyra could see the wheels turning in Douglas's head."No, everything is fine. Don't worry. We both are fine. I am not hiding this from him because we have misunderstandings. It's just, something happened last
"Dragon Elder's are like the people who lay down rules for all the Dragons. It's like the human government. They are our government. No one is above their law and rules. They laid down the rules for a reason. Anyone who breaks those rules will be published. It's like going against the elders" Roland began to explain who the elders are.It's important to tell her the importance and power they hold in the Dragon world.Only then will she be able to understand what exactly the Dragon elders can do and how serious it can be."No one can contest against them. If they say a particular Dragon is wrong and he should be punished, then no one can do anything about it. The accused Dragon would be punished in anyway the elders seems fit" Roland explained.Nyra is slowly understanding about the elders.She understood that they are the the people who are formed to keep the Dragons in check or take care of them if they face any problems.Just like a king takes c
Roland and Douglas are stunned to hear her words. 'Did I made a mistake by telling her the truth?' Roland thought with regret. 'I need to convince her. What she is about to do is wrong. It would ruin both of their lives' Roland thought. "Nyra, it's not good to take these kinds of decisions on your own. Talk to him. He might have a solution for this" Roland tried to make Nyra change her mind. Nyra knows what kind of solution Drake has. It's taking her away from the fairy. But she cannot do that. It's her responsibility which she cannot ignore. She is born as the heir to that throne. She cannot force Drake to become the king and risk his life. But she has no other option but to stay in Fairy and bear the burden of that crown. But she can make him come back to the human world' she thought. "He has a solution to this problem. That is to bring me to the human world as well. But it's not fair for my parents who sacrificed so much to protect me. My f
"What brings you here green dragon?" the elders asked in union. Shawn removed the scroll from his pant pocket, that he found under the hourglass. The scroll was snatched from his palms by an invisible power. It then moved towards the elders and began to Hover in front of them. It unfolded itself in front of the elders and remains there for them to read. The elders looked at the Scroll curiously. By the looks of it, it is quite old and the tongue in which it is written is not their usually used language. It's in a foreign language, one that only a few can read and understand. The elders became the elders for a reason. They can read almost all the ancient languages and understand them. This one is no different either. They began to read the Scroll slowly, but halfway through, all the three stood up from their thrones in surprise. "What? The Relic gave away his powers?" All the three of them said with shock evident in their
"Does any Dragon know that the Fae and the Dragons are my two children?" She asked angrily, glaring at the elders. The elders looked a little taken aback by what their mother, the fairy goddess asked them. True, not even a single dragon knows that the fairy goddess is their mother. The elders didn't find it necessary to share that crucial information with the Dragons. Every Dragon thinks that the elders are their heads and only they will look after them. But no one knows that even the elders would seek the help of their mother, the fairy goddess for anything that they cannot solve on their own. "Dragons and Fae are my two children. When you both were fighting for the realm in Fairy, I divided it into two realms so that you would stop fighting. But then, you were not satisfied. You wanted to go and explore the human world, leaving the winter Realm, which was yours to rule and Protect unattended. Still, I didn't say a word against you. I even spent half
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
