Everyone bowed to their new king with respect. They were really happy to see that he is awake and healthy again.
Dale couldn't contain his happiness after looking at Drake.
"I am really happy that you are awake your highness" Dale said truthfully.
Drake nodded his head, but he couldn't muster up a smile. Nyra is still in a coma, and he is angry over himself for letting Koni that close to her.
'I failed her and now she is paying the price' she thought with regret.
"Let's go" Drake muttered and walked towards the dungeons with a purpose.
As soon as he entered the dungeon, he saw two guards bringing George's body out of his cell.
When they noticed Drake, they bowed their head.
Koni is glaring daggers at Drake.
"You are awake?" Koni asked with malice.
Drake did not answer him. He motioned Dale to unlock the cell.
Koni always thinks that Dragons are beneath him. So he looked down upon Drake as if he i
Like Drake instructed, the guards began to whip Koni one at a time. Soon the common public began to volunteer. Koni could hold back his cries for the first two days. But after that, his body became sensitive and he could no longer hold back his cries of pain. What's worst is that, if someone is annoyed with something, they would come and whip Koni until they feel better. They don't let him eat properly or sleep properly. Whenever they feel like it, anyone could come and whip him senselessly, until he would pass out with pain. He tried to pretend that he passed out. But that lasted only an hour. They soon figured that he is acting, so now they are sparing him even he became unconscious. After 1 week of this torture, Koni began to pray to the fairy goddess that the princess should wake up soon. He no longer can bear this torture. "Please forgive me and let the princess wake up" he began to beg the goddess loudly when he could
Drake woke up from his dream, where he saw Nyra running towards him amid wild colorful fae flowers, holding their son's hand, who looked just like Drake. He loved that dream so much, that a longing for that to come true began in his heart. But to his surprise, he saw Nyra smiling at him as soon as he was awake. "Nyra?" he touched her face to confirm if it's reality or a dream. "Drake" she whispered softly. With the soft morning light streaming from the window, her face is looking angelic. He missed her so much so that, he pulled her into a tight hug. "I missed you Nyra. I missed you so much. Do you know how scared I was when that Koni stabbed you? That was the worst moment of my life. I never wanted to see you like that ever again. I will try everything I can to protect you and our son from harm's way. I am sorry that I failed you Nyra. I am so sorry" he confessed with his face buried in her neck and breathing in her scent.
"What are you doing Caroline?" Carlos asks his sister.Caroline smirks and continues mixing some powder into one of the glasses of whiskey."Caroline" Carlos snaps at his twin sister impatiently."Relax brother. It's just a drug to make my position as Drake Hamilton's mate" Caroline signals for a waiter.As soon the human waiter arrives, she looks straight into his eyes and hypnotizes him to do as she said and forget everything soon after."Give this whiskey only to Drake Hamilton," Caroline commands the waiter, who is under her control.Carlos panics at what his sister is about to do."Drake will kill you if he finds out" Carlos warns his sister."Relax brother, 'if he finds out'. Which he never will" Caroline says smugly.Carlos and Caroline are the step-siblings of Drake Hamilton. Their mother and Drake's father Roland Hamilton married each other a few decades ago, when Roland's mate died."What is that you mixed in his
After one monthNyra woke up with a start. Even after one month, the dreams of what happened that night plagued her mind. She did not remember much about that night. But every night she dreamed about his husky voice and she immediately gets turned on.Nyra is not understanding her reaction towards that man. After that night, she thought she would have nightmares. But exactly the opposite thing is happening with her. Now, she is dreaming about her tormentor's voice and this time, she is enjoying her time with him.Nyra left that small town upon her grandmother's insistence. Once her grandmother find out what happened to her, she was adamant about her decision to send Nyra back to her father and stepmother."Don't tell anyone about this Nyra. Never let anyone find out about that tattoo. They will kill you" her grandmother's warning ring loud and clear in Nyra's mind.Nyra unconsciously reached to rub her new tattoo. After that night, an orange drago
Drake got ready for work and came down to the mouth-watering aroma of breakfast wafting from the dining room. Usually, he prefers to eat in a nearby coffee shop near his company headquarters.But since the day this new cook started working in the Hamilton mansion, he don't want to eat anywhere but in his house.He finished his healthy and tasty breakfast and took his second cup of coffee in a to-go cup, which was placed beside him.Drake got into his Bentley and drove off towards his company. One thing he loves is driving his car.It's a luxury sedan built for the city traffic. His company is situated in the center of the city in one of the tallest towers in the world with a helipad on the terrace.It's constructed by the Hamilton group, facilitating the dragons to shift and fly off at any given time. There are balconies on every floor, making the shifting easy.Mostly Dragons work in his company, along with a few wolves and vampires. Humans
"Hey man, where are you? Are you not coming to work today?" his friend Mason asked Drake over the phone.'You are already the most richest man on earth. Even your grandchildren can live comfortably with the money you earned. Now stop running and start searching for a mate Drake' Roland Hamilton's words reverberated in his head."Drake, you still there?" Mason asked his friend.It's so unlike Drake to miss a day of work."Ya man, I am here" Drake answered distractedly."Are you not coming today?" Mason repeated his first question."No, I am not coming today. Tell my assistant Steve to forward important documents to me and cancel all my meetings" Drake told Mason.Mason was stunned into silence.'What happened to him? Dragons usually don't fall I'll. Is it because of his mate?' he thought worriedly."Are you alright?" Mason asked with concern.Drake heard the concern in his friend's voice."I am fine Mason, I just
Nyra cursed Drake in her head and moved towards his closet to do his bidding.When she opened the door and entered inside, she was awestruck with the sheer size of it.His suit jackets are hung on one side, his shirts on the other side. Neatly arranged based on their colors. His ties are hung to a separate hanger which looked fancy. His nearly hundred pairs of shoes are neatly polished and kept in the shoe rack.Nyra came outside the closet and was startled to find Drake Hamilton standing in front of her.Drake looked at her coldly and noticed her empty hands."Where are my clothes?" he snapped at her.'Beast, bully' Nyra cursed him inside her head. But gave him a pleasant smile."Mr Hamilton, all your clothes are already neatly pressed and arranged inside," Nyra said smugly.Drake looked at her smug face and gritted his teeth."I see" he murmured and strode inside the closet.Nyra looked confused.'Now what is this b
Drake smirked looking at Nyra's shell-shocked face. She glared at him but as soon as her father turned to face her, her eyes became soft.'Interesting' he thought.Douglas left soon after that leaving a fuming Nyra behind."Now, you are my slave" Drake taunted her happily."You.." Nyra controlled her urge to curse him."Yes? " Drake is having too much fun at her expense. He did not remember when he enjoyed his time like this.'Her misery is making me happy? Is there anything wrong with me? With that attitude, it's not a wonder that she spiked my anger' he told himself.Nyra decided to leave this room to cool down her temper. She is scared that, she might scratch his face off.Nyra stalked off without a word to him.Strangely, as soon as she left, Drake felt restless and empty.'It's just my imagination ' he thought and did not think much about it.Nyra went down to the kitchen, still fuming with anger.Emm
