What Your Love Felt Like-The Dragon Saga

” So… You accidentally killed my prize huh! You are indeed as useless as we have been told. Your mother should have accidentally dropped you, even before you were born. Would have spared her the hard life that she had to lead because of you! ”

His blows didn’t hurt me as much as did his words. He was deliberately reopening my wounds. He wanted me to reacts, so he would be able to mercilessly see me through my end. I knew how to read these dragon brothers very well. So predictable.

I was swallowing down my own pride at the moment and being submissive in front of him because, first of all, I did commit a mistake and second of all, I needed to live if I were to see my revenge through, till the end.

” Lucian… I… I won’t block you… Not today… You can hit me all you want… I will take it, blow by blow… It was my mistake… I took a life which can’t be replenished… ”

Blood was trickling down my nostril and I could taste it’s coppery aftertaste in my mouth.

” Hell, you did, you moroon! You killed I only human that I ever loved… I thought I would never recover after Kiara’s death… But just when I was about to get Draco out of my way… To make a place for myself in Liana’s heart…. What do you do? You stab her heart… And you dare call it a mistake? ”

He was fuming like an angry bull. Much more ferocious than that. He was like a raging bull with a tiger’s claw and tooth. Now intensify that combination a thousand fold, if you want to be precise.

” I know it’s unforgivable, Lucian… But… But there might be a way to bring Liana back. But… but it might be a little difficult.”

His claws retracted the moment those words left my mouth. His hand stopped mid-air.

” What are you talking about? What way? It’s impossible to bring back the dead… ”

I knew he was trying to think logically, but he looked already hooked. He was interested in my proposal, no matter how impossible it seemed.

” That’s the general standing Lucian. But if you can dig deep, there is a loophole in everything…”

I couldn’t hide my smile as I saw the expressions on his face change and so did his manner.

He grabbed my shoulders and shook me hard,

” Are you telling me that there is a chance that I can get Liana back? Tell me what it is? I will do anything… ”

And he meant what he said.

He lowered down to my level and added a feeble, ” Please… ”

I shrugged him off and went to sit on the other side of the cave. Honestly, I would never be entertaining him or any of these dragons if there was no need.

” Well , I found a loophole in the Divine Law. Since I killed Liana, a human, by mistake and my original target, was a dragon, there is a way to revese what has been done. Liana can be brought back to the land of the living from the Netherworlds, only if Draco agrees to go there and trade his own life for her’s…”

Lucian looked at me for a couple of minutes.

He had no expression on him, whatsoever. He just blinked a couple of times and then he kicked a rock and stood up. He had been couching as he listened.

” It might be doable but if we try to convince Draco, he will never do that. He will never give up on the dragon kingdom, even for his lady love. I know him that much. We need to think of another way… ”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

I knew very well that my suggestion acted as the catalyst that sent his brain cells, working ten times more. He had been hopeless before. But with the glimmer of hope that I shown, he was back to his devilish work.

Suddenly he turned towards me and pointed at me with his finger,

” You. Stay put over here, till I come back. I think we can work around this and manipulate Draco. ”

With that he took off. His dragon vanished in the beautiful sky as I watched from the opening of the cave, in which I was.

I knew Lucian was the bastard son of Draco’s father. And it was fun watching these brothers tear each other down. What honour these dragons were so proud of that they had to exile my pregnant mother? What blood ties did they cherish and sang about, across their lavish kingdom?

It was a facade. All of it was a show off for the power to be to in their hands.

I went back inside the cave and sat there, meditating, waiting in peace now, for one brother to bring back the poison that was to be fed to the other.
