He watched her walk to the door and then he called out her name impulsively, “Elaina…”

She turned to look at him with a forlorn look on her face, for the first time she felt running into his arms for a hug but she held herself back. Drake stammered on his words, unsure on how to say it without making it look like he cared because he didn't.

“I think you should stay away from the king, reduce contact with him and just focus more on helping me escape. That's what important” He ended up saying that instead and for some reason he felt bad immediately it came out of his mouth.

Elaina's eyes lingered for only a second before she turned and continued walking away without a reply.

She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed that even at that moment, the dragon still only cared about himself.

She began her walk home deep in thought. A cord memory popped up in her head and she had a trip down memory lane.

It was a rainy day and everyone was home covered up in thick garments. Thirteen y

    Elaina singlehandedly ransacked the entire house in desperation to find anything relevant. She purposely didn't tell Drake about it because of the tension between them, plus she didn't want to give him hope unnecessarily. She checked everywhere and everything; the furniture, cupboards, shelves and the bottom of everything. The cottage wasn't that big so it didn't take too much of her time although it felt like painful hours had passed.“Oh great heavens! Why can't I find anything?” she muttered to herself when she found nothing of importance. She slumped to the ground and her eyes watered with unshed tears. She was devastated, even more than she was when she hadn't gotten the idea. ‘How silly of me!” She thought as her last shred of hope faded into nothing. Perhaps this was how her life was meant to be… like her mother; always in hiding. Xavier's would soon take over the world and would definitely come for her and Drake first. The road ahead was treacherous and maybe it was time t

As his closest advisor, council member and great magician, he was obligated to check up on the wounded king. Asides that he wanted to see the satisfactory scene of King Alfred paying for his foolishness. Drake and Elaina had helped him scratch an itch and they were the ones affected… even better.When he arrived at the palace, he was led to the infirmary where king Alfred was undergoing treatment. He kept his face sad and full of sympathy that was sincerely just for show. Not even the king dying moved him.The king's chamber for treatment was like a luxurious room, popular physicians troped in and out trying to expend all their knowledge and resources to save Alfred's life.Once Xavier walked in they bowed in respect and stepped out one by one to give them some privacy. Except the royal physician who sat by his side to actively tend to him.Xavier got closer and observed his co

    Elaina pulled away from Drake's arms and straightened. She was utterly terrified by the realization they just had and she struggled to process it. Drake was left out either, he immediately got up to his feet and began pacing back and forth with dread on his face. As if they were not already struggling enough, their situation just got way worse.“Maybe we are getting worked up over nothing, Drake. We can't be completely sure he has the essence just because he missed fortifying the cell securely… right?” Elaina spoke up with desperation while looking at Drake's form with hopeful eyes. They still had so much to do even though Drake's escape was a big milestone for them. It wasn't exactly an escape either if they were both wanted fugitives and with a beaten up king by the side. They still had to play the musical call, find out the imposter who took Drake's essence, save both kingdoms and find her mother.Xavier with the essence would definitely not give them time to do all that, his fi

    While all that was happening, Elaina turned restlessly in her sleep. She was definitely exhausted after the events of that day and her body was begging to rest but her mind was restless. Their current situation worried her, she felt stuck on what to do next. The couldn't be the end of all their hopes and dreams.Aside from that, king Alfred tormented her. She would see him everytime she closed her eyes. He had traumatized her with his actions deeply and she wasn't sure she would be able to recover from it anytime soon. She kept seeing the sick expression on his face, his naked body hovering over her and his disgusting phallus touching her entrance. A shiver would ran over her repeatedly and no matter how much she tried to distract herself, it kept replaying over and over again. How did everything get to this point? She wondered.No matter how much Alfred had claimed to want her for himself, she never thought he would be that desperate to force himself to that extent. Her naivety ha

    Xavier almost couldn't believe his ears, he stood frozen to a spot as he processed what Elliot just told him.He finally regained himself a few seconds later and his next action surprised Elliot. “Let’s talk in my private study, Lord Elliot… I'm afraid the walls has ears and we cannot discuss matters concerning the king so openly”Elliot nodded unsurely and followed him to his study. He had expected Xavier to be sad with the news because he was the king's closest advisor but he wasn't. He wasn't exactly the catch any type of gossip outside kingdom duties so he was unaware of how broken the king and Xavier's relationship was.He was beginning to see why Xavier could brazenly attempt to dethrone Alfred. They were sworn enemies just tolerating each other's presence.As if to confirm Elliot's thoughts, Xavier burst into laughter as soon as he closed the door of his study. He had been holding it in since at the foyer and now he could release the joy in his heart at the king's pain.“Lord X

    A knock came from the door and a voice followed, “My Lord, a letter have arrived from the palace” A guard announced.Xavier paused what he was doing and his face fell into a frown. A letter from the palace could only mean it was from the king but what could he possibly want? What the king had done was still fresh in his mind, he had humiliated him for the sake of a peasant and disregarded his position as his closest advisor. Xavier had vowed to take his revenge and had resolved to staying away from anything related to the king. He thought they wouldn't have any reason to discuss anymore so he was confused by the announced letter.Xavier contemplated within himself and finally replied the guard, “Keep the letter till I'm done. I do not want to be disturb right now”After he said that, he returned his attention to what was in front of him and pushed the thought of the king and the letter to back of his mind. Xavier was busy with making his special weapon and was very meticulous so as
