What Your Love Felt Like-The Dragon Saga

Liana’s POV

” Why are we back here? ”

I knew my voice was shaky. The memories of this place was still fresh inside my head.

It definitely was not a fond one.

Draco and I were standing at the edge. Ready to take the plunge inside the dark whole.

” Listen Liana! ”

He turned my head to face him. ” There are things in this world that might seem absurd to you but they are as true as the sky is blue. Though it might camouflage into different shades. ”

His talking like that and me making a sorry face was now the norm. It was nothing absurd.

” I knew that your are a Selected one the day the Spirit Charmers started ringing on your entrance! ”

There goes. What’s with this Selected One? What did I get selected for?

” Liana, not all humans have bodies that can adapt with a growing Dragon foetus. One in a trillion is blessed with that. ”

I was still processing but he continued.

“For centuries humans have worshipped Dragons . The only reason we ventured into the human world was to look for the Selected One ourselves. Every Dragon covets them. They are like amulets for us who keep harm away. Since ages the humans have been sacrificing these females to us in exchange of blessings which were feeble. Often they would try to trick us with fake girls. Not bothered at all about the horrible ends those girls would meet on the truth’s revelation! ”

Indeed human history reeks of sacrifices of maidens to Dragons.

But I failed to understand why he was telling me all that in the middle of nowhere.

Was he preparing me for a similar fate?

” The connection that you and Damian share is far from coincidental. It has its root in this fact and today we might need to use that connection that you share to trace his location. Atleast try to gauge the realm he is at! ”

” Is that possible? Then what are you waiting for? Let’s go? Why did we not do it before? ”

I was really confused with Draco’s reluctance in this matter.

” It’s because we needed the perfect time and place. Look above! ”

I did. The sky was exactly like it was when I had found Damian.

A crystal red ord hung in the sky of the dragon realm, much like that night of blood moon.

” Blood carries the genetic instruction that connects generations. Passing unspoken, unseen traits from one member of the past to the next. Blood moons are as much special. They connect worlds and people together, who are connected by fate. ”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

He entangled my hand with his fingers.

” I know you are willing to do anything for Damian’s sake but this might put your life at stake. I needed to warn you before getting in there. I do not have very many people around me at the moment whom I can trust. The ones I thought were closest, turned disloyal for the sake of the throne. That’s the power it possess. ”

His voice seemed lost.

” Perhaps if you showed people more of this side of yours instead of bossing around… ”

I wanted to tell that but instead gave him a hug.

Did he need that because his hands entwined around my hair.

” You know I got your back down there but the creatures living there are dark. They can read our souls and mind. It takes great determination and strength to work uphill against them. ”

I didn’t know why he brought me out here in the first place and was now bringing up every excuse to hinder the actual act.

” Let’s just get done with it… Damian’s done for more than three days now. I cannot sit idle. ”

” Lucian is on it as well. Perhaps he might get a clue before we do! ”

Now I was sure.

He did indeed want to abort this mission. But he wanted to point the gun on my shoulders. He was waiting for a single statement of mine where I showed even the slightest weakness.

What with this behavior Dragon king? Why are you behaving like clingy child.

I let go of my hold over him and let my feet slip from the edge of that cliff.

” Liana… ”

He followed immediately behind like a loyal pup, gripping me tight by my hip.

There was something different about this Dragon King. The one that came back after being human with me.

Was he softer, gentler perhaps.

Nah! It was just my wishful thinking.

He probably was too shook by the betrayal of his Master.

The darkness of the pit was just the same.

Draco rubbed my eyes with his palm and my eyes began seeing in infra- red. I wondered his he shared the same vision.

Because this allowed me to take a peek inside his Dragon Heart.

I saw a warm ord pulsating with an odd rhythm as I swept my hand slowly over his chest, still not letting go of my grip around him. Neither did he. He was hold my hips as firm and delicately a before.

” Ahem! Draco. What next? ”

I could feel my own heart dancing to his beat. The atmosphere was getting heated in there for no reason.

” You will need to walk in there Like last time. But this time you need to loose me. You need to find your own way out of these grounds.

If you do, you will emerge with Damian’s location.

But if you can’t, I will tear this land apart and get you out! ”

What was with the certain volatile tone at the end of his statement.

I didn’t understand the place to begin with.

I remembered the prying eyes and the voices that kept calling my name.

“Let’s do it! ”

I rubbed my palms together and was about to spet forward when Draco suddenly pulled me back and bent me back by the hair.

” Be safe! ”

He uttered and then forced his way inside my lips.

This was a different kiss.

Bitter sweet. I found my eyes water as he squeezed my skin. His lips tender against mine, communicating in a language unseen.

” Draco stop! You are making me feel like I am dying you know! ”

I had to push him away because he was melting something inside me.

But what was more shocking was the look in his eyes after my last statement.
