All Chapters of The Dragon's Lost Phoenix Princess: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Serana POV.My heart is slamming violently against my ribcage because I know this is a trap. Every time we have gotten close to them, they disappear. Samara is playing with us. I will kill her and whoever is following her. I would do anything to get Cyra home.Three years, three god damn fucking years of searching, not just our kingdom but all the other realms. It has been exhausting and heartbreaking at the same time. Every time we get close enough, they just disappear.This has put a tremendous strain on not only my relationship with Vilkas, who’s guilt overshadows everything else. It has also put Hyperion’s and Lara’s relationship on the thin line. I understand why she is pissed because he never told her he had a child with that traitorous bitch. This could have been avoided if we knew and were able to monitor her movements, but there is no point in the shoulda, woulda, coulda’s. It happened and Vilkas and I have missed out on so much and we only crave to have her home, safe, and s

Vilkas POV.Looking at Cyra, my heart aches painfully at the state she is in. I know she will have issues adjusting to how her life should have been. We flew back, and I held both Serana and Cyra in my paw. Cyra is still clutching Serana.We are in the process of giving her a bath. Serana is in the bath with her as she soothes her.“It’s ok baby, we are not going to leave you.” I say gently as she trembles in her mother’s embrace. I look at Serana, and she looks devastated. Devastated that we couldn’t get to her sooner, I feel her guilt through the bond. She is questioning if she is a good mother.“You are a great mother. You are so patient and loving with her, Serana. Don’t doubt that.” I tell her through our link when I see little green eyes looking at me and I smile softly at her.“Mommy is the bestest.” She says and I frown.“Sweetie, how did you know what I said?” I ask her and she chuckles before she hides her face back in Serana’s chest.“I could hear you. In here.” She taps he

Serana POV.Walking through the quiet hallways of the palace, the place I call home. I still can’t wrap my head around what Pascha said. That she did all this because of jealousy. I suppose you never truly know someone.Did I ever rub the fact I am who I am in her face? Did I ever deprive her of anything since the beginning? Am I such a bad person for this to be happening to me?I thought I knew the answers to those questions, now I’m not so sure. I make my way to the kitchen and turn the light on. Moving to the coffee machine, I get to work on making a coffee. I place my forehead on the cupboard and sigh, closing my eyes.“It was never you, Rana. You were always so good to her. She is ungrateful and doesn’t deserve a friend like you. She is getting what she deserves.” Bedelia says, and I shake my head.“It didn’t need to be this way. If only she came to me and told me how she truly felt, we could have spoken about it. She didn’t need to side with our enemies and kidnap Cyra.” I say a

Serana POV.“The prisoners known as Samara and Pascha have been charged with kidnap and conspiracy to commit murder and genocide. How do you both plead?” I am emotionless, no feeling, nothing as I stare at the two women standing before me.They both don’t even look apologetic about what they have done. Am I surprised though? No, however, it still hurts that Pascha feels nothing about what she has done to me, my family, and hers. She is not someone I recognise anymore, so this will be easier to do when they are both found guilty of their crimes.“What’s the point in all this? You all know we did it and given the chance we would do it again, so get on with it and stop wasting our time.” Samara spits and I just shake my head at her words. Ungrateful bitch. So much like her mother only difference her mother was more cunning.Low growls murmur around the throne room from the people present. I stay stoic and keep looking forward, not showing how much this is hurting me from the person I cal

Vilkas POV.“Daddy, is mommy ok?” I turn to see Cyra standing there next to me watching as Bedelia flew higher into the clouds.“Yes, sweetie. Mommy is OK. She needed to let Bedelia out for a little while. She will be back before you know it. Did you have fun with gran?” I ask her as I scoop her up in my arms and we walk away from the balcony.“Let it go Serana.” I say to her through our link. I can feel her pain and I understand why she needs to get away for a little while. No-one can deny her what she needs right now.“Do it, my love, let it go. I will be waiting for you to return.” I say to her when I hear a shriek in the distance and I smile softly. She will be ok, I know she will be. Serana is the strongest out of us all.“Daddy, did you hear me?” I looked down as Cyra frowns at me before she narrows her green eyes at me. I chuckle, so like Serana.“Sorry baby, I was talking to mommy. What did you say?” I ask her and she rolls her eyes. Yes, even for a three nearly four-year-old,
