Chapter 2 - Running Away

-Luna's POV-

I stood my ground, not shaking, as the dragon man walked up to me. He stopped directly in front of me.

I could see my people visibly trembling, afraid of what these dark men intended to do to me.

"Hmm," he hummed, circling me. I didn't shake, afraid, waiting for him to open his mouth and burn me to ashes, as he was a dragon.

"Strip!" he commanded, and I froze.

"What?" I asked, meeting his red eyes. He stopped in front of me. I could still see the surprised look of disbelief on the faces of his four dragon companions. They had shapeshifted to look like us, the humans, and were surprised to hear I was a woman.

"You heard me correctly. Now strip!" he commanded again, and my blood boiled. I saw the look of disbelief on my people's faces.

"Don't think I have time to waste here with you. You actually sliced the throat of a royal dragon-guard. How powerful are you? I need to confirm if you're truly female or male, so I can decide your punishment here and now before taking you to our king."

"Hmm," I hummed.

"Okay," I agreed, and the dragon-man smiled, his red eyes lighting like coals.

"Go on," he said, moving backward. I took courage and began stripping.

Taking off my shield first, and then my warrior's garment, I saw their eyes almost pop out of their sockets. They were all surprised that I was truly a woman—a pretty, hot woman at that.

I saw the dragon man's eyes burn redder, and he licked his lips, seeing how huge and big my bosom was. He approached me, but I was unshakeable. Even as a female with natural endowments, I was still brutal and ruthless. When he attempted to touch my bréast, forgetting I was still holding my sword, I sliced off his hand, making him scream, "How dare you?!" But he didn't slap me, nor burn me. He waved his other hand to his four men, signaling them not to interfere.

I thought he was going to kill me, as I ensured I sliced his hand off completely from his arm. But to my shock, he picked up his right hand, which had fallen to the ground from his elbow, and fixed it back onto his arm. It magically healed.

"I see you're a princess. How interesting that the last princess of Sunfield has been disguising as a man all this while. You cannot kill me, princess. I am the king's brother and of royal dragon blood, Aaron Diego!" He smirked, and dread ran down my spine. I couldn't speak, still in shock at how he knew I was a princess.

He walked faster to me and this time, forcefully collected my sword. He carried me up, not minding that I was bare and without clothes, and took me away while I struggled against his strong shoulder to get off.

"Put me down!" I screamed as I finally fell to the soil. But he transformed and picked me up with his leg, and he flew away with me and the rest of the dragons, taking me to their dragon king.

He said he was the dragon king's brother, and I kept struggling to break free from his tight hold, not minding if I fell into the river. I saw the large ocean beneath me that he flew past, and I would have preferred to be eaten by a shark instead of a dragon king.

Arriving at their dragon kingdom, I was amazed that they had houses like us humans.

Beautiful houses, not huts or tents like the few we created for shelter, but towering houses while we were running away.

I was captured by night, so before we got to their dragon city, it was already day and sunny. Many of the dragons started coming out from their various houses to peer at us.

Aaron flew faster than the rest, and arriving at a towering building, he landed on his feet. I became ashamed as I saw the eyes of all the people gathered and staring at me, as I was bare.

"Your majesty!" Aaron held a bright smile on his face as I cursed under my breath, without any clothes.

I stared at the frontage of the castle, trying to use my hand to cover my bréasts, but they were too big, and I became utterly embarrassed.

I saw a tall man stepping out from the towering building, and his eyes fixed on me. Our eyes met, and he gulped, staring at a guard with grey hair. I saw the grey-haired man snap his fingers, and two female dragon women walked out to meet me.

I couldn't tell if they were humans or dragons. The females looked cute and brown-skinned, and they thankfully brought me wrappers, but they weren't smiling as they dragged me away after wrapping me like a bread.

I stared back at the male dragon that dripped with authority, as he had golden long hair on his head. My eyes burned at him, meeting his sharp blue eyes again, while I saw Aaron walk up to meet him.

"Face where you're going!" The two strong-armed females commanded at me as they dragged me roughly. I knew escaping from them wouldn't be easy.

I was hoping to see my sisters, and my mind ran with variant thoughts. What did they use my elder sisters for?

What did they want from me, and where were they taking me?

They followed another side of the mansion and took me upstairs. I was thinking they were taking me to the dungeon or prison house, but instead, they took me upstairs along with them as we climbed the flight of stairs. My mind got confused about what they really wanted to use me for.

Did they want to cook me? "No!" I screamed.

"Let me go!" I fought with the two strong females, surprising them. I stepped hard on them and summersaulted backward, not minding if my wrapper loosened or not. I wasn't ready to be cooked yet.

"What has come over you? Do you think you can escape from us, or that we are humans?!" They cursed after me as I ran away while they chased after me. I ran through another door, not minding the side of the mansion I had gone into.

I needed to hide from them, and escaping from the towering building was my only solution.

Luckily for me, there weren't many guards in the house. I wondered who the grey-haired man and the golden-haired man were.

Which of them was the dragon king?

All that didn't matter, as hiding was the only thing I needed to do, to finally plan my escape. As I approached a door, I quickly pushed it open and went in, and I stared in horror at the beautiful golden bedroom I had just stepped into.

These dragons were rich. How come?

I froze as I stared at the king-sized bed. It wasn't wood but gold. Everywhere in the mansion reeked of gold, and I assumed it was probably the golden-haired man's bedroom that I had stepped into.

"Shit!" I cursed out, and I immediately heard footsteps from behind me. Not knowing what to do, I ran into his wardrobe, hiding into the large wardrobe, ensuring the clothes would cover me up. I needed an explanation for how these dragons were rich and had so much wealth with them, while we were poor and hiding in shadows.

"Your majesty!" I heard the two females run up to meet the footsteps that stopped, as I recognized their voices.

"What is it?" he replied to them, and I froze as his voice made me shiver inside the wardrobe.

"Your majesty, the new female has run away, and she's hiding somewhere around here."

"Hmm," I heard him hum, and then silence. Later, I heard the room door shut. I didn't know if he left or if he was still around there, as I couldn't see out through the wardrobe door, but I was sweating, and I kept wondering what was going on between them.
