What Your Love Felt Like-The Dragon Saga

I can’t believe I just caught this one like this.

What am I going to do when it comes around. Did they not get my message? Why isn’t anyone coming?

The large jute bag tied with what humans use on their hostages, ropes and chains.

I wonder if it would be enough to hold him when he comes around.

He looked like a human from every angle and smell. So much so that I was even hesitating to use my powers on him. In fear I might be hurting an actual human.

But the Seal he was carrying barked other wise. It was an heirloom of the Royals. Thought long lost in the resting place of the Scattered Souls. But here it was. In my hands. Retrieved from the possession of a seemingly mere human. In the human realm.

The plot around the Queen’s death and the disappearance of the prince seemed to be in deeper waters than what we had thought.

I looked up.

There was a thunder from the clear blue sky.

Crap! They had sent Lucian.

” Where is it? ”

The first thing he demanded was the Seal.

I obediently handed it over. He preserved it under his skin on his right sleeve.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

That is how we Dragons carry important or large things around. On our bodies . Not on our hands.

“What about this one? ”

I asked.

Lucian was the worst of the worst.

Both the brothers were. I mean Draco himself was no angel. But he had his standards. Lucian cared about nothing. Not even his own reputation. He would often torture and kill his own men for amusement and pleasure.

Everyone in the Frontline Dragon Squad was afraid to every be posted on his team. For any expeditions. And here I was with this rogue, stuck in the human world.

As expected, my question didn’t seem to go quite well with him.

He turned to face me as if I had spat in his direction.

” What is it? ”

he pointed at the sack and asked.

I tore the bag open to reveal the content.

He looked with his eyebrows pursed.

” Isn’t that a human? ”

I thought he would not be that naive to ask. Yes he was apparently but he had been transforming after I hit him with my staff. His feet were back to his original self.

I was relieved. I had not made a mistake.

I pointed at the Dragon feet.

Lucian fling the man out.

He was now dangling over the ground.

He slowly opened his eyes. The moment his eyes met Lucian, he seemed filled with ecstasy and joy.

” Lord Lucian. Hail to the Dragon Prince. The mighty prince. Please save me my Lord. Please. There has been a big mistake. ”

I looked at him with my mouth half open. Marveling at his audacity.

” Has there been a mistake? ”

Lucian’s voice was cold. It meant doom. The lavender and blue of his eyes were swiftly turning yellow.

He walked with deep and heavy pace towards the captive.

He flipped another hand. He turned upside down, mid air.

” Who all are behind all this? ”

Lucian asked him with a smile.

” I… we… my Lord… I don’t know… I don’t know… I was promised freedom in exchange of his job … ”

Lucian swished his left hand.

” Aaaaahhhhhhhhh! ”

the air filled with the captive’s call of despair.

Lucian’s sharp claws had slashed his face into four.

But he was still breathing.

” Dispose this one. He is of no use. ”

Lucian ordered me and was about to leave.

” Wait.” I yelled. Then quickly added, ” My Lord, he just gave a very important piece of evidence. ”

Lucian turned at me with his killer eyes.

His claws still bare.

I covered my face. It was rational. It was difficult to heal from a Dragon’s venom. Specially ones with the Royal blood.

” I mean did he not just let us know that he was coaxed into doing this for freedom. This means there are insiders at operation in the Royal prison. ”

I still had both my hands crossed across my dear face.

I could hear Lucian’s steps approach me.

I backed a little.

He was behind me.

He grabbed me by my neck.

Turned me to face him.

” You are quite capable. I see why Draco kept you in his inner circle. The only female. ”

That was supposed to be a compliment but we, of all, knew very well how much Lucian despised the things Draco held dear.

Lucian never hid his hate for his half brother. Nobody knew, however, why Draco tolerated him, kept him by his side, inspite of his temper.

He swished his other hand. It tore the man into two. His lifeless body fell with a thud.

” You can now go give your king this little piece of information. ”

he let me go too.

With another flash in the horizon, he was gone. I looked at the body. It had started to turn to ash. I quickly flipped him. At the back of his neck was his prison cell number-

XIII.

To dust everything returned the next instant. Another dragon body scattered in the air.

I stood up and looked around. The tall building around this small park. Towering from the human point of view. I wonder what would have been their reaction had nature not considered of disposing our dead bodies this way. Giants lying on their backyards and grounds.

Guess it would have definitely disturbed the balance between our worlds.

It queer how every creature have their own system.

I turned and prepared to dart back.

This place was the vicinity where our prince lived with the human, Liana.

” I don’t care. I want my daughter at all cost. Pregnant? Child?. My foot. What absurd rumour are these. I am sure officer , she has been kidnapped.

Yes. Yes. Liana. That’s her name.

Yes. She used to live all alone. ”

I heard a woman’s voice bark from inside a machine. Some men in uniform, probably the peace keepers of his neighborhood. What were they called?

Yeah! Police. They were communicating with someone who was speaking from inside a box. I just turned because the name caught my attention.

Then turned again to get back to the Dragon Palace.
