Chapter 92: Playing with Fire

last update Last Updated: 2025-12-16 11:00:28

Alexander’s POV

My blood ran cold as I saw the person I had been frantically searching for for weeks casually strolling through the garden with my uncle. For a split second, the world narrowed to her—her calm steps, her relaxed posture, as if nothing in the realm was wrong. As if my world was not burning.

Big lilac eyes looked at me with open amusement, and she smiled innocently, almost warmly. That smile made something ugly twist in my chest.

I wanted to squeeze her throat and shake her like a ragdoll until the truth spilt out of her mouth until that calm cracked.

“Do not touch her,” James hissed, catching my hand and forcing it down, grounding me before I did something irreversible. “You have no evidence yet.”

“Kill the bitch. She hurt our mate,” Velkan roared in my head, his rage blistering hot. My muscles trembled, bones aching to shift, and it took every shred of self-control not to lose myself right there in the royal garden.

  • Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen   Chapter 94: The Smile That Locked the Door

    Mira’s POVI opened my eyes, and the cold air sent chills through my body. My back leaned against the cold stone wall as my hands and legs were chained to it.My body trembled in terror, and I was not scared for myself….My babies. The tear slid on my cheek, and when I felt a slight movement. Goddess, my babies were fine.“Asfar”, I called my dragon through the bond, but I could not feel her.I tried to mindlink Alexander, Dorrin, and my brother, but mindlink was not working.I looked around, studying the small room. It had nothing inside. Maximum four by four meters and only stone walls, not even the door. How did I even get in? The air was also heavy, mixed with the scent of mold and dust. Most probably, I was underground, but who and where took me?I tried to break chains with the power of my mind, but my powers were dormant. I also feel extremely weak; only thick chains were holding me standing, otherwise I would have collapsed already on the floor.I felt helpless and afraid that

  • Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen   Chapter 93: The Snake Among Us

    Alexander’s POV “What do you want from me?” I asked Liora sternly, my voice sharp but strained beneath the surface. I was ready—no, desperate—to give her anything in this world if it meant getting Mira back alive, back breathing, back in my arms. “What do I want?” she repeated slowly, tilting her head and placing a finger on her chin as if she were genuinely thinking. “What do women usually want? Love, money, power…” She let the words hang in the air, savoring them. The pause stretched, deliberate, and cruel. I knew her too well—this was a game to her. She was enjoying every second of my misery, feeding on my fear like it was entertainment. “Name your price,” I said, forcing a grin through clenched teeth, my jaw aching from the effort to stay composed. “Straight to business, like always. No fun,” she replied, rolling her eyes lazily. “I want you to owe me a favour. When the time comes, I will ask you for anyt

  • Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen   Chapter 91: Taken

    Dorrin’s POVMira rushed to breathe the fresh air, and I could relate, as the air in the room was suffocating. Generous joy was mixed with fake cheers, expensive perfumes, and uncovered jealousy. It pressed against my skin, too heavy, too loud, as if the walls themselves were closing in.Still, my heart was beating unsettled in my chest, and waves of emotions surged through me like a tsunami—uncertainty, confusion, fear, emptiness. They came too fast, too sharp.And they were not mine.I felt Mira’s emotions through our bond, disordered and spiking in a way that made my stomach twist. Fear flashed, then dizziness, then a hollow stillness that made my breath catch. From the corner of my eye, I saw Alexander’s face go pale, his body going rigid as if he sensed it too.“Mira?” I mindlinked her, already rushing outside. Silence answered me.The bond strained painfully. Her side was blocked, like a door slammed shut, yet I could still feel her presence—faint, distant, fragile. She was aliv

  • Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen   Chapter 90: The Coronation Trap

    Mira’s POVWe were standing in front of my father, mother, and priest. Dorrin looked confident and proud as always, not even a sign of nervousness.My sweaty palm touched my dress. My heart was pounding so loudly that I was sure someone beside me could hear it. I inhaled deeply, forcing air into my lungs, and looked around.Tons of eyes were focused on me—nobles of werewolves, dragons, witches, fae, and vampires. Their gazes pressed into my skin, heavy and judging. A predator’s gaze of King Alfred burned holes into me, sharp and calculating. Some tall man with a crown glanced at me like I was dirt beneath his shoes. Two witches whispered to each other with mocking faces, pointing at me, their lips curling in quiet cruelty. A chill slid down my spine, thin and unwelcome.“Ignore them,” said Asfar. “Power and goodness will always create enemies. Some of them are envious leeches, some worthless fools. You can’t please everyone. Look at the faces of people

  • Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen   Chapter 89: The Throne Awaits

    Mira’s POVAfter countless scrubbings, wraps in cold substances, being covered in fire-like essences, waxing, massages with honey, and endless masks of unknown ingredients, I had survived. Katria and Cora joined us for hair and makeup, which also took two hours, but at the end of all my torments, I looked at myself in the mirror, proud that I had endured it all.I stood there for a long moment, staring at my reflection, trying to reconcile the girl I knew with the woman looking back at me. The red dress clung to me as if it had always belonged there, hugging my waist, skimming my hips, and falling in dramatic, heavy folds that made me look taller, stronger—untouchable. The front slit revealed a lighter, delicate fabric beneath, a quiet reminder that power didn’t have to hide softness.The top of the gown was sheer, dangerous yet deliberate. Tiny diamonds caught the light across my shoulders and arms, glowing like embers beneath my skin whenever I moved. I lifted my arms slightly, watc
