Douglas, who is waiting for Mr Hamilton to come down, saw the face of his daughter Mindy.
"What happened? You look so pale" he enquires softly.
"Mr Hamilton asked for you to come to his dad. He told me to take this coffee back to the kitchen. He didn't even touch it. He looks angry" Mindy essayed everything that happened upstairs.
Douglas thought, his other daughter might impress the way Nyra did and become her substitute. But he is wrong.
"You don't worry about it. I will go and see what Mr Hamilton needs" he assured his daughter and went upstairs to meet Drake.
Douglas quietly tapped on Mr Hamilton's door before being called inside.
"You called for me Mr Hamilton?" he asked politely.
Douglas wants to take his permission to go and visit his injured mother.
'Nyra told me she would call me from the hospital, why didn't she call me yet? She is not even picking my call. Is my mother alright?' he thought worriedly.
"Where
Drake tried to move based on the direction of the sun."I flew in the west direction when I was coming here for Nyra. Now I should go in the east direction to get out of here" he thought out loud.Unfortunately for Drake, it's noon. The sun is shining brightly on their heads."It's noon, I need to wait a couple of hours to identify the directions, based on sunset" he muttered out loud.Nyra, who was sedated, started to stir. Neither Nyra, not Drake know that she should not be able to wake up this soon. The drug they injected into her was a very powerful one, and in humans, it takes them 24 hours to come out of the effect.But Nyra is stirring just after 10 hours, which is impossible for a human body to cope up with.Nyra is slowly gaining consciousness. Her head is pounding and her body is weak. She slowly opened her blurry eyes. She saw a figure looming over her. Nyra thought her kidnappers found her and he is looming over
Nyra unable to hold herself, leaned on Drake to avoid falling."Are you alright?" he asked her with concern."Ya, feeling a little dizzy" She absently rubbed on the spot where they injected her with the drug.Drake noticed her movement and looked at the spot where she is rubbing. The area around the spot where the injection stuck became a little red and swollen."What happened? How did you end up here?" he asked her gently."Someone called me last night and told me that my grandmother is admitted to the hospital. That guy claimed himself as the nurse working in that hospital. I believed him. Why would I even doubt? I am a girl from the small village around here. I don't have enemies. So I didn't have any reasons to doubt him. I packed an overnight bag rushed to see how my grandmother is. But that guy told me to get down the bus in a stop near the hospital. He offered to pick me up. I agreed thinking that, it would save me some time and I can see m
Drake left Nyra there and went ahead in search of food. After about ten minutes, he found a tree with ripe fruits hanging by its branches.He plucked a handful of them in both of his hands went back to where he left Nyra.Nyra after catching her breath, looked up and found herself alone. The forest is dark and is looking scary. When she was with Drake, she didn't find her surroundings this scary. Now that she is alone, every little sound is scaring her out.'I can't believe he left me alone. Beast, he came for me. But he left me alone. Didn't he look behind him to look if I am following him or not?' Nyra thought with fear.'I should call for him. He is a dragon, he might come back if hear my voice' she thought hopefully."Drake" she shouted for him.'Damn, it's getting colder' she thought folding her arms around her midsection.Drake, who is returning with the fruits heard her calling him by his given name.'Drake?' he thought wi
Nyra did not remember much about the previous night. All she remembered was the bone-chilling cold making her feel like, she is in the deep freezer.The next morning, Nyra is feeling comfortable Lying on the hard surface surrounded by a cocoon of warmth, which is cozy and comfortable.She just woke up, her eyes still closed and she is feeling refreshed and energetic. Her brain didn't catch up to the events of the previous day, giving her a reprive of a few minutes.Slowly Nyra became fully awake and she felt as if her back is near to a heating furnace.'Ha?' She was confused for a couple of seconds before the reality slowly trickled in.She started to remember everything from the previous day.'Last night I clearly remember being ice cold. Then suddenly how did it became so hot?' She thought with confusion.All she saw in front of her and above her is black colored solid rock. The tree branches are still standing tall, covering the mou
"What do you mean by No?" Nyra asked with anger.Drake can pull her easily out of the pit. He is an orange dragon. His human strength will also be much higher than any other beings out there.He can easily kill a werewolf, Vampire, or any others in his human form.Pulling her from that pit is a child's play for him. But she doesn't know that. Her interaction with Dragons is Nill, so she doesn't know about their abilities and strength.Drake wants to tease her a little bit, before helping her from that pit.Nyra, who is unaware of his thoughts, is trembling with fear. The pit has pulled her till her neck. Only her head is visible now.He is acting as if he doesn't care if she lives or dies.'Is my life not valuable at all?' She thought with displeasure."No means, I don't want to help you for free. What are you willing to give me, if I pull you out now?" Drake negotiated with Nyra, answering her previous question.
"Come eat" Drake pointed towards the Fruits and vegetables he bought with him.Nyra looked at the fruits hungrily. She is so hungry after her battle with that sinking mud pit.Nyra picked up the food and started to eat hungrily. Drake looked at her with amusement.'This female is a contrast to all the others I know. She doesn't fawn over me like they do. She doesn't worship the land I walk on. She dares to snap at me when she gets angry. I wish my mate has these qualities' he thought looking at her.Nyra noticed him looking at her weirdly.'Is something on my face? Why is he looking at me like that?'"Why are you not eating?" She pointed out.Her comment snapped Drake out of his daze."I was waiting for you to finish so that I can eat the rest" he drawled lazily.That's when Nyra noticed in front of her. Unknowingly she pulled everything in front of her, leaving nothing for him to eat.Nyra felt embarr
After his bath, they both started to walk in search of a way out. Drake is sure that they should walk in the Western direction to reach home. So they walked in that direction.Nyra is tired and she doesn't even have her shoes to protect her feet."Hisss.." She hissed with pain when she stepped on a thorn.The thorn is thick and sharp. It embedded itself in the soloes of her feet deeply. Immediately blood started to pool around the area.Drake looked behind him when he heard her painful sound. He found her sitting on the ground holding her feet, which is bleeding a little."What happened?" he asked slowly approaching her."Nothing" she snapped at him.She did not forget what he did that morning.He rolled his eyes at her and snatched her foot from her palms."Hey" she protested immediately."Shh.." he said and tactfully removed the thorn."There, you will be fine now," he said with a wink and got
Drake saw Nyra being pushed into a tree. Her hands are tightly pulled behind her back. And her attacker is trying to tear her clothes.He immediately went and pushed the guy away from Nyra.Louis was roughly pulled away from behind by someone. He looked up and found the furious face of none other than his nightmare Drake Hamilton."No, no" Louis chanted with fear.He started to crawl backward in fear.Drake reached him in just a couple of long strides and pulled him up by his neck. He started to squeeze Louis's neck tightly.Louis started to struggle to free himself away from Drake. But Drake is furious and all he wanted to do right now is kill the man in front of him.By his scent, Drake immediately recognized the other man as a red dragon. Red dragons have a very sinister smell associated with them."A stupid red dragon" he roared angrily.Louis became purple with a lack of oxygen. His strength is a no ma
