What Your Love Felt Like-The Dragon Saga

It was the most beautiful season in the Dragon realm.

The sky was the most beautiful colour. A rainbow in itself. The clouds were the colour of perfect silver. Floating like mercury.

The trees seemed decked up with glitter . Their leaves

swayed from tip to tip. Their golden leaves scattered all over the ground. Covering Draco’s entire kingdom into a golden marmalade.

Every soul in the kingdom was ecstatic. They danced and partied endlessly. They have been preparing for the wedding of the era. Their King had finally agreed upon a wedding after so many years.

Kiara herself was super excited. She had not met Draco after their last conversation . She was happily checking her wedding dress. Scrutinizing every inch of its fitting.

” Lacey, does not this part look like it’s bulging? ”

Kiara had a worried frown appear over her serene face.

” I am so sorry my lady. I will get it fixed right away. ”

The maid in waiting, helped Kiara out of her dress. Then ran with it, to mend it.

Kiara stood in her corset. Carefully checking her curls and lipstick.

A thud behind her made her turn around.

” Lucian! ”

Kiara’s hands went immediately around herself. Trying the cover as much as possible.

” Lucian. You know this is highly inappropriate! ”

She was backing off without looking back.

” Ahhh… ”

” Careful… ”

Lucian caught her just before she fell. He pulled the curtain hanging beside and wrapped it over her .

” We need to talk Kiara. ”

His eyes were desperate.

” Lucian. I thought we already had a conversation! ”

Kiara’s voice was firm.

Yet he took his chance.

” I cannot let you do this. Kiara. Wake up. This marriage. All these, ” he pulled down a few decorations and stamped them with his feet , ” All these are just… It’s just a means to get you to push a child out for Draco. That’s it. You don’t mean anything more for him. Just a child making machine. Kiara… ”

his voice was breaking down.

Kiara took a deep breath.

” Lucian. There is nothing new that you are telling me. We all know how important it is for Draco to get a heir for his throne. Specially after… ”

” KIARA! ”

Lucian held her by the shoulder and shook her with intense.

” I KNOW. I KNOW HOW IMPORTANT IT IS FOR HIM.

There are hundreds and millions of dragons out there. He could pick any one that he liked. Why did it have to be you Kiara? Why you? ”

Kiara could no longer read between his lines.

The colour in his eyes were rapidly changing.

Just at that moment they heard footsteps heading their way.

” Lucian. Leave. Now! ”

It was a command. An order. With worthy authority of a future queen.

” What if I don’t? ”

He pressed himself further. Knowing full well where he would be headed if he was found in the future Queen’s chamber . That too in such a situation.

” My Lady. My Lady… ”

it unmistakably was Lacey’s sound.

She was back with the alterations. She was chirping happily.

Kiara pushed Lucian behind the curtain. Then threw a Masking perfume over him.

She ran out to meet the chirpy Lady.

” Why are you back so early? Did you check the fittings properly? I will be very mad if I need to take it out even once. ”

Lacey bowed and smiled.

“It’s fitted to perfection this time. Let me help you get changed… ”

” Wait! Wait! ”

Kiara immediately pushed her back.

” I… I want to check it out first by myself. You go out and take some rest. Come back only when I am satisfied and give you a call. Alright? ”

Lacey looked confused. She was a little heart broken too because Kiara wasn’t sharing her excitement.

” Alright… ”

she said and left.

Lucian came out just then.

” Why did you hide me? ”

He pulled Kiara by her her hip.

She pushed with her core energy. He fell with a thud on his back.

“Don’t get any wrong impressions Lucian. We have all grown up together. I have always loved you as a friend. A close one at that.

Besides , I didn’t want the gossip to spread around the castle that Draco’s queen was found in her chamber with another man. Even if it is his brother.

You need to listen to me straight and clear on this Lucian. The one in my heart has always been Draco.

I, want this marriage more than he does.

I, want to be the one who gets to bear him a child.

I, am the one unwilling to let anybody else take my place. ”

Her voice was more fierce than a lioness.

She stood up as Lucian watch her with wonders in his eyes. He had never seen this side of Kiara. She had always been the meek and docile, lovely lady, trailing them behind of their trips.

Kiara breathed. One long, heavy breath.

Then walked upto Lucian.

” Here! ”

she gave him her hand to get up.

He took it without any question this time.

” I know you are worried about me Lucian. I know that you care. But you need to see what I care about too.”

Lucian was no longer looking her in the eye.

” Lucian look at me. ”

she cupped his face between her palms.

” I need my friend back. That cheerful, funny, naughty Lucian. Who used to make me laugh.

We need you Lucian.

Both me and Draco.

He would be lost without you by his side. The burden of this kingdom is too heavy for his single shoulder.

You are his brother.

Can’t you be one to me as well? ”

Lucian took a look at her.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Then scoffed and broke into a frenzied laughter.

Her words had hit him straight at the wrong place.

His eyes were turning blood red as he laughed. It was not a good sigh for a dragon to have.

He went to her window to take his leave. Without another word with Kiara.

She wasn’t even trying to stop him.

He turned for one last time before flying away in his dragon form.

“Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you Kiara. Being Draco’s queen will cost you much more than just love. ”

Then he was gone. Becoming a speck in the distant sky within a second.

Kiara heaved another deep sigh.

She was willing to pay any price for his sake.
