Love Me, Dragon 32
ALARICBoaz, has become one person I trusted, and an ally, who seemed to be our beacon of hope in this dark hour. We poured our hearts out to him, sharing our suspicions about the sabotage of the knitting machine and our belief that Lucia was behind it all. However, we lacked concrete evidence to support our claims."Boaz," I said, my voice filled with a mix of frustration and determination, "we need your help. We suspect that Lucia tampered with the knitting machine, but we have no proof yet. We can't let her get away with this injustice."Boaz leaned forward, his eyes sharp and focused. "I've heard rumors about Lucia's cunning ways, but we can't accuse her without solid evidence. We need a plan, a way to uncover the truth and expose her."Amelia interjected, her voice filled with urgency. "Boaz, do you have any idea how we can gather the evidence we need? We can't let her win by deceit. The truth must prevail."Boaz pondered for a moment, his gaze fixed in the distance. "I may have

AMELIA"Why does love have to come so hard to me," I sat there, my mind filled with worry and uncertainty, a memory from my past floated to the surface. I could see myself as a little girl, sitting on a stool while my mother gently combed my hair. She had a warm smile on her face as she looked at me lovingly."You are so beautiful, Amelia," she said softly, her voice filled with affection.I gazed up at her with wide eyes, filled with wonder and curiosity. "Will I become a queen one day, Mama?"My mother's embrace tightened around me, and she whispered, "Yes, my darling. You are destined for greatness. One day, you will be a queen, ruling over a whole kingdom."I remember feeling a mixture of excitement and doubt. A queen? Me? It seemed like such a grand and distant dream. But my mother's words filled me with a sense of possibility, as if anything was within my reach.As the memory played in my mind, I could almost hear my mother's voice again, reassuring me of my potential. It was a

AMELIAThe next day, I confided in Alaric about what I had overheard from the maids. Anger and determination burned in his eyes as he insisted on confronting them immediately. Together, we sought out Boaz to discuss the matter and hopefully find a resolution.As we approached the maids, their eyes widened with surprise. "Amelia, Alaric, what brings you here?" one of them asked, feigning innocence.I took a deep breath, trying to remain composed. "We know about your involvement in the knitting machine sabotage," I stated firmly.The other maid scoffed, crossing her arms defiantly. "You must be mistaken. We had nothing to do with it," she replied, her voice dripping with insincerity.Alaric stepped forward, his voice stern. "We overheard your conversation yesterday. There's no use denying it now," he said, unwavering in his resolve.The maids exchanged nervous glances before one of them spoke up. "Look, Amelia, it's not what you think. We never intended for things to go so wrong," she b

LUCIA As I sat there, feeling humiliated and angry, I called for my handmaid to distract myself with a pedicure. "Can you believe the audacity of Amelia?" I lamented bitterly.The maid frowned, curious about what had happened. "What did she do, Your Grace?""She thinks she's so superior to everyone else," I said with a hint of venom in my voice. "I hate her so much."The maid hesitated for a moment before asking a daring question, "Why did you agree so easily to the crime they accused you of?"I sighed, feeling a mixture of frustration and determination. "I have my plans, my dear. I can't rush the whole process. At that moment, there was nothing I could do. Those two incompetent maids had already confessed, and the evidence against me was overwhelming. It was the only reasonable thing to do."The maid nodded, understanding my predicament. "You're wise, Your Grace. It was a strategic move."I smirked, feeling a sense of pride. "It has nothing to do with wisdom, my dear. It's about kno

CHAPTER 36AMELIAAlaric and I have found a habit of seeing each other in secret. I didn't like keeping our relationship a secret but right now, that was the only way we could be with each other. He came into my room this night like he has been doing all throughout.I lost every sense of reasoning when I gazed at him and trailed his eyes, he was staring at my breast, I wasn't wearing any bra and my nipple lines were visible from my silky dress."Just call my name," he muttered to me, his voice was hoarse and you can see how he longed for me. I was trying to fight every will in me to say no, no to him pinning me to the wall and having my body press to his. "Alaric," I whispered and that was the tipping point for us, he took my lips into his, kissing me hungrily. He lifted me and placed me on top of the counter, While our lips parted for a split second to breathe, it was just like going underwater and coming up for air. I grabbed his hand and pulled him to me, our lips meeting in a

CHAPTER 37ALARICAs I stood before the entire kingdom, my heart pounded with a mix of nervousness and excitement. This was the moment I had been waiting for—the moment to right the wrongs and reveal the truth about the competition.With a deep breath, I climbed onto the stage, facing the expectant crowd. The anticipation in their eyes was palpable, and I knew I had their full attention. This was my chance to be a leader, to show them the strength of justice and the power of truth."My fellow citizens," I began, my voice carrying across the square, "today, I stand before you to address a matter of great importance—a matter that has affected us all."I could feel their curiosity growing, and I took a moment to gather my thoughts before continuing. "During the recent competition, there was an unfortunate incident that led to confusion and doubt," I explained, my eyes scanning the crowd."But today, I am here to set things right," I declared, my voice strong and resolute. "I have come to

The village was adorned with colorful decorations, and the sweet aroma of freshly baked treats wafted through the streets. Alaric and I had gone back to my hometown and I felt good to be finally home."Amelia, my dear," my mother said with a twinkle in her eyes, "your father and I have something important to discuss with you."I furrowed my brows, wondering what it could be. "What is it, Mother?"My father smiled warmly, putting a comforting hand on my shoulder. "Alaric has asked for your hand in marriage, Amelia."My heart skipped a beat, and my cheeks flushed with a mix of surprise and joy. "Oh! Really?" I stammered, trying to contain my emotions."Yes, my dear," my mother chimed in, her voice gentle. "He came to us with a sincere heart and formally asked for your hand. We couldn't be happier for both of you."Tears of happiness welled up in my eyes, and I hugged my parents tightly.

"Amelia, it's natural to have a case of nerves before the big day. But don't let fear cloud this moment. You're about to marry the love of your life, Alaric, and it's going to be a beautiful day."I took a deep breath, trying to push away the foreboding sense lingering at the back of my mind. "You're right, Constance. I must focus on the happiness ahead."As the ceremony approached, my heart pounded louder with every passing minute.
