Beggars' Hole.

He mounted Fury and extended a hand to pull her up, when she was comfortable behind him, she asked the question that was bothering her, “What did you guys talk about, You and…” “Ariel, Ariel is her name” “Yes”, Raisel answered, “It was pretty intense and I caught the glances that passed between you two occasionally." They rode gently through the deserted streets., “You want the undiluted truth?”, he asked. “Affirmative!”, she answered, “We are partners remember?” “Well Ariel asked if we were a couple, can you believe that?”, he asked, a look of astonishment on his face, “I was appalled by the mere thought of it but she was serious. She said she saw how you kept on giving me subtle love glances…” Her forehead creased, “What?” “The time with the injuries, you were in pain because I was in pain…” “Dragomir”, Raisel called, “Keep quiet, don’t say a thing. You have no idea what you’re saying” “Chill miss, you don’t have to be all so defensive, like the mere thought of being with me

The "Kingdom of Dragons"

It was dusk when they got to Nevera. They surveyed the city from a safe distance. He turned to look at her, “This sure is a busy town, I don’t think dragons will come here to hide if they needed to stay out of the public eye” “Well if there are rumors there could be a hint of truth in it”, she answered, she observed the town. He nodded absentmindedly, he stared at her as her eyes lit up at the sight before her. There were a lot of people engaged with one thing or the other. Kids chased one another on the streets, they were giggling young girls talking to each other and subtly admiring the young boys down the road. “So where do we go from here?”, he reluctantly drew his eyes from her. She turned to him, “You are the one with the broad knowledge of kingdoms and towns…”, a hint of a smile on her lips. They stood quietly beside each other, the breeze billowed around them, sending papers flying around. One landed on the feet of Raisel, she picked it up and read through, “I think we mig

The Fitting.

Allerick and his aide Mart stopped to rest for a while under the shade of a large tree. Unknown to him the ensemble his father sent after him where hiding behind the cover of the dense forest. “Mart quickly tend to Buck, we have to continue our journey soonest, we should approach the city before dusk”, he barked out orders. Mart stood up almost immediately, “Yes sire”, and began tending to the horse. Allerick placed his head against the large bark of the tree, now that he was out of Avalon with no host of soldiers and servants to tend to all his needs, save for a little peasant boy, he had no idea why he had put up with him for as long as he had, it didn’t make any more sense. The more he thought about it the more he thought his decision foolish, Raisel could be anywhere, any town, any kingdom. He would never be able to find her, especially if she didn’t want to be found. This was why he wanted to travel solo, so as not to attract unnecessary attention to him, so she wouldn’t know

Bruised Ego.

“We are at Molvania my Lord”, Matt announced Allerick pulled the reins of the horse backwards causing it to halt, “I see…”, he surveyed the surrounding areas, “Does that little map make any indications of where a library might be?" “Yes Sire, you can not imagine all the minute details on this map, there are taverns, hills, mountains and even small inns”, Matt answered excitement clear in his voice. “Wow that’s very exceptional", Allerick smiled slyly, "It seems old Ryker even in his death is still a very generous man” Mart nodded without saying a word. He handed the map to Allerick, he surveyed it quietly for a while before handing it back. “This way”, he beckoned to Matt and began to head in the general direction of the city. They rode for a while before they got to the majestic tower that was the library. It was so visible, you couldn’t have missed it even if you wanted to. Allerick alighted his horse and smoothed his slacks. He hated this peasant clothing. He missed the cares

Lord and Lady Golding.

“Do we have to wear this”, Raisel asked clearly in distress, “Everything is clinging to my skin so tight, I might pass out any time soon” Dragomir turned to look at her, “I beg you please don’t, that will be defeating the whole not attract unnecessary attention to ourselves purpose” “Do I?” “Yes you do, this circus is for the high-class ladies and gents. I think they’ll appreciate it if you don’t show up in high boots and your sword by your side”, he answered, "That would be terrifying" “I’m going to trip over, this dress is just…” “I think you look perfect”, he blurted out before he could stop himself and he was right. She had on the ocean blue dress that just perfectly complimented her ocean blue eyes. Her long dark hair was not tied up in a ponytail, as usual, it was braided in two. He could have sworn he saw a red tint on her cheek but she looked away quickly. They got to the white and red striped tent and handed over their tickets to the man on the outside. He bent his han

Esmeray...

Allerick had the description of the lady who had taken the book alongside the man. He was convinced beyond reasonable doubt that it was Raisel. He didn’t know whose company she was in and it hurt him to even think about it. He had imagined her in the past sitting beside him on the throne of Avalon, he had merely toyed with the idea in his head. Now that he thought deeply about it, he didn’t want that any more. She wasn’t worthy of it, not in the slightest. She was a criminal and he wanted nothing to do with her whatsoever. After this realization, you’d have thought he would have just gone back to Avalon and get on with his life but no, he wasn’t going to do that. He still wanted to find her, he still wanted her. He wanted her in many forbidden ways to want a woman and of course, the facts that he had set out to find some magical stone. He would be considered a coward if he returned sooner than was expected. He needed to prove himself to Avalon that he was a worthy king and not a cow

Captured.

They were going over the plan again for the second time. “You are certain the king has a real-life elder dragon?”, Dragomir asked still in disbelief. “Yes, he does, locked in a cage and chained. A private pet…”, Esmeray answered, “He has an obsession for dragons and loves to have them by his side as a show of his strength”. “Pathetic”, Dragomir spat. Raisel appeared to be thinking, "That would explain this kingdom's unnecessary obsession over these creatures" Esmeray nodded in agreement. “And this dragon has not escaped why?”, Raisel questioned. “The King uses strong magic to suppress the power and strength of this dragon and to keep it in dragon form for a long time, your energy wears off with time”, Esmeray explained with a nonchalant shrug, "Or so they say...He is unable to escape or fight back the attacks, he is just sitting duck...”, she stared at Dragomir briefly gauging his reaction, "To be used for the king's indulgence." Dragomir frowned, “That makes sense. The dragon

The Elder Dragon

Hours passed but they still did not speak to each other. A guard appeared, a different guard from the one they had met earlier. He unlocked the gates, then two other guards rushed inside to pull them out. They were dragged along long corridors until they got to a large door. One of the guards whispered something to the courtesan, he opened the doors and walked in, then he returned almost immediately and ushered them in. They were dragged along the lengths of the large throne room till they came face to face with one of the scariest faces they were inopportune to meet in their lifetime. They were both tossed to the ground before they could say a word, “Bow before the king”, a voice said to them. Raisel looked up to see who had spoken, one of the men pulled her by her hair for her defiance. “Do not hurt her!”, Dragomir shouted. Raisel kept a straight face not willing to give out the fact that she was in a lot of pain. They were both pulled up until they were face to face with the

Rage of the Dragon prince.

They had been locked up for days, Raisel couldn’t keep track of how many days it had been exactly. She knew it was occasionally day and night from the small light that streamed through the very high window in her cell. The only connection to the outside world. She had never been trapped all her life, not for any reason whatsoever, it felt like she was going to lose it any moment longer she spent trapped. The guards would occasionally come and serve unpalatable food, suddenly she longed for the wild berries in the forest and the streams where they drank water from. And if she was willing to admit it to herself or anyone else, she missed her companion, the man with whom she had travelled through cities in search of a gem that had been found long before she was born. She needed to meet with him, she had questions that needed to be answered. Surely she wasn’t the only one who had noticed the sense of understanding between him and the dragon. At that moment when they had tossed him to be

Break Apart

One minute she was running to find Fury the other minute she was above ground level, high up in the air held in place by a very large dragon. Yes, she had indeed asked to see a dragon but she hadn’t intended to be picked up by one. Esmeray’s instruction had been clear; go to my house, get your supplies to grab your horse and come back here, while you do this avoid getting caught again. She had protested initially but Esmeray had sworn on her life that she would ensure Dragomir’s safety. Raisel had followed the instructions to the latter, on her way to Esmeray’s house, she spotted a lot of guards littered about like they were in search of something. So to avoid getting caught she had hidden and tried to get past them. All of a sudden there was an uproar and people began to run Helter Skelter. They had pointed to the sky and she had looked up at that moment to see the largest creature she had seen. Somehow, she couldn’t bring herself to move, she stood rooted in her spot and stared at
