Anna, who is with her sister, in a small town beside the Ayur forest, dialed Nyra's number to look if she is still with her grandmother.
Nyra was working, when she received a call from Anna.
She looked at the caller id and smiled a little.
"Hello Anna" she answered cheerfully.
"Hello, Nyra" Anna greeted back with a grin.
"I came back to stay with my sister for a couple of days. Sean has some work it seems. So he didn't feel it was a good idea to let me stay at our home alone. So he dropped me off here this morning" Anna told Nyra.
'Oh, something must be important if Sean dropped off Anna at her sister's home' Nyra thought.
"Oh, really? I heard he came here to meet Drake and then they went out with some work" Nyra told Anna.
Anna was startled. Sean told her he is going to meet the elders. Did he went there to take Mr. Hamilton along with him?' Anna thought.
"Oh, Sean told me he had some work with the dragon elders. They must have
When Lord Alpine heard that his brother has a daughter, he was shocked. He assumed it would be a boy. Nonetheless, he is happy to have her in fairy."The next successor of the throne is a girl?" he asked his advisor 'Koni' the cunning fox."Yes My Lord" Koni answered.He is not happy to find out that the dead Sibling of the Lord Alpine has offspring. That too a daughter, the next queen of the winter realm of fairy.'I did all this to destroy this throne. But still, there is a girl out there, who is ready to become a queen ' he thought darkly.'Don't worry Lord Alpine, I will make sure to use your next queen to get that relic, and then she would die. Exactly like I killed your brother' Koni thinks with an evil gleam in his eyes."Send some Royal guards to bring her back to where she belongs. I will go and bring her mother from the cells in the basement. She gave a queen to this throne. She no longer deserves to stay in the basement" Lor
Lord Alvin freed his wife Avery from the basement and led her into his personal quarters.He found a maid passing by in the corridor, on their way towards their rooms.When the maid noticed the person walking in front of her, she stood rooted to the spot in shock."King Alvin?" She bowed deeply with respect.Alvin nodded his head."You are awake?" She fae maid exclaimed happily."Yes, meet your winter queen, Avery, My wife. Go and prepare our rooms. Today I will bring your princess home. My daughter and the next successor of the winter realm. I need you to prepare her room and clothes as well" Alvin announced.The maid became extremely happy. She ran to gather the other maids to finish the work given to her.Soon the news of the Winter king being awake from his coma spread all around the palace and the realm. The news reached Lord Alpine's ears as well.Lord Alpine was always feeling guilty that his brother died because pushed hi
Nyra is sitting in her office, after disconnecting the call from Anna. She is in shock."Drake is my mate""Drake is my mate""Drake is my mate"She keeps repeating that on and on, to digest the fact.She remembered every single instance where he could have told her the truth. But he didn't. He toyed with her emotions, all the while knowing that he is my mate. The one who took me on that night in a haze.'Caroline drugged him' she now remembered the words Roland spoke to her once.She is feeling like an idiot for not connecting the dots earlier.'Drake, I have a mate' she protested so many times, with guilt.'We can cross that bridge when we get there ' he said, instead of telling her that he is her mate."Why Drake? Why did you do this to me? Why did you play with my emotions? I have trusted you so much. But you didn't trust me the way I trusted you. Why did you hide this from me? Why?" Nyra cried with despair.
Dragons and Fairies have some bad blood between them. So they hate each other to the point, that they banned each other into their respective worlds.If my father is a fairy, then I am one too.'Dragons will kill you if they find out who you are'If what my father is telling is true, then the dragons will kill me if they find out that I am a fairy.Even Drake would not protect her. He cannot go against the entire race.'He already betrayed you Nyra, if he finds out that you are a fairy, then he would betray you again' her subconscious reminded her.But he is my mate, she thought bitterly.'If it comes to his life or yours, anyone would choose their own life. No one will be ready to die for another person ' her subconscious argued.'But he saved me from the Ayur forest' Nyra pointed out.'That's because he knows he wouldn't die. But when he is sure he might die, then why will he put his life on the line?' her subconsci
Nyra became unconscious the moment she stepped inside the fairy."Nyra" her father Alvin called for her worriedly.He carried her to her room, which was specifically prepared for her."What happened?" Avery, Nyra's mother asked, upon seeing her daughter unconscious."The fairy haze, it must have been too much on her mind. She fainted with the pressure." Alvin replied.Avery looked uncomfortable at the prospect of their daughter forgetting everything. She wants their daughter to be happy with her love, unlike Avery, who had to struggle to be apart from her daughter and husband.But she cannot tell that to her husband. He is right in his way of thinking. But Avery is not sure if what they are doing to their daughter is fair or not.Alvin settled Nyra on her bed and covered her with soft velvet fur.He can understand what his wife thinks."This has to be done this way, Avery. It's better than losing your daughte
'Koni', Lord Alpine's royal advisor was out of the palace with some work. He is still not aware of the changes happening in the winter palace.But when he was walking through one of the towns in the winter realm, he overheard a ground of fae talking among themselves excitedly."I heard that our king Lord Alvin has woken up from his Coma," one of the faes told the others in the group."What? Really? Is it true?" the others exclaimed excitedly."Yes, it's true. Our king was in love with a human woman and he even married her secretly. She is the one who has taken care of our king for all these years. They even have a daughter, whom our queen hid in the human world to protect her from whoever has tried to kill our king" the one who brought the news shared it with his friends."Really?" The other asked in horror."Yes, really" the news barer confirmed.The fairy world has 1% of the human population. They are the ones who settled in fairy, before
Koni came inside the palace saw the happy festive environment in the otherwise silent gloomy palace.He looked at the maids, who are chatting and working excitedly. He looked at the guards, who are more alert than usual.'What is happening in here. I was gone for just one day and everything changed completely' he thought.He went in search of Lord Alpine. He first searched for him in his royal quarters. But found it empty.'Where is he? This the place where he spends most of the time. Where is he now?' he thought with confusion."Where is Lord Alpine?" Koni asked a nearby guard.Everywhere he looked, there are guards. Double than usual. His expression became from irritation to anger.'I am the one whom he asks for everything. Then how dare he decides to increase the number of guards without asking me first?' Koni became angry."He is with King Alvin and the princess in their quarters" the guard replied."What? King Alvin?"
In the summer court, on a bright and sunny day, the summer king got the news of the arrival of the Winter King with the queen and the princess.Dillion, took over as the summer king, only a couple of years ago when his father became ill with an unknown disease.Since then, he is bedridden and Dillion tried so many medicinal herbs, but nothing seems to work on his father's mysterious illness.His spy from the winter Court, brought the news of the King and queen's arrival, with their princess."King Alvin married a human?" he asked with surprise."Yes, King Dillion. According to the gossip that spreading across the winter realm, he married her 20 years ago and now they have a daughter, who is 19 years of age. Queen Avery hid her in the human world when someone tried to kill King Alvin. But now he is well, she brought the princess back" his spy revealed."Interesting" Dillion said.Dillion became curious about all this.King Alvin w
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
