CHAPTER EIGHTThe mystery girl.KELVIN’S P.O.VAs soon as I heard that, I wiped the water off my face and tried to look out for where that had come from. My hands were already shaking and my legs stiff. I have never been this frightened.Stepping out of the bathtub, I slipped and almost hit my head on the wall.“Isn’t this too much for a day already” I tried to stand up and moved out of the toilet. Took a survey of the entire room and saw that the coast was clear. I promised myself never to let such level of fear envelope me anymore. With that confidence, I stepped in again and had an amazing bath. There after, I came out and met Dan in the sitting room. On sighting me he got up quickly and bent his head in a bow.“Stop doing this Dan, let’s go” he moved immediately and reached for the door, opened it and stepped aside for me to go through it first. Stepping out if the door, I saw my Aunt walking towards me . “Good morning Auntie” I greeted as I made a bow. “My dear son, how
CHAPTER NINEMABEL’S P.O.VI headed back to Charlotte’s room to fetch her after her father the king had started making a scene about her absence. It was almost noon and festival was already coming to an end. Although the villagers were all around as they have not seen the princess and this year’s festival was majorly about her. It was her coming of age ceremony which coincided with her heat period and her birthday too. The whole palace had been prepared for this great day. It was beautifully decorated and there was lots of exotic food to eat and drink. Those in charge of music was at their best with all kind of musical instruments. The flute players were my best as they released the most beautiful sound I have ever heard.All the dragon men in the clan were present. All waiting to be chosen by the princess as a mate. “What the hell is wrong with the princess?” The prince asked with fury and wrath waiting to be unleashed on the nearest person. “I left her in her room.”
CHAPTER TENKELVIN’S P.O.V“Hello, Mr. Kelvin”The voice on the other side said so loudly that I had to remove the phone from my ear. “Hello, Greg, what’s the matter?”“Something is about to go wrong Sir, and your presence is needed in the office. We are about to loose a major client.” “Who is this client we are talking about?” I asked in a tone that sounds like I didn’t care anymore about my business. And of course right now, I don’t care. Aunty Valkyrie is all that is on my mind right now. I shouldn’t have made her scream at me or do anything to stress her this morning. It must have taken her a lot to come over to my house this morning and all she needed was rest. But come to think of it, she wouldn’t have been here if she had also let me be. This woman is just good at putting pressure on me. I understand she loves me but sincerely I’m becoming sick and tired of her overprotective attitude.“Sir, sir you need to be here now.”Greg said as he hung up on me speedily. I
CHAPTER ELEVEN.The searchCharlotte’s P.O.VThe warriors looked very fierce and scary. I have worked with most of them at the Grand Nursery. We protected the little ones at the nursery together and I have never for a day seen them like this.Even the days we would have to face very strong predators they are never this angry looking. This made me wonder what instructions the king my father and my brother had given them.They even looked like they had suffered from an ill treatment from the king today.This must have happened because of me. And a lot must have gone wrong. If the warriors are looking like this, then Mabel would look more miserable cos I was kept in her care. She should know my whereabouts.The warriors stopped right in front of me looking like they have seen something. I prayed silently, hoping they had not seen me. My father would be very mad at me if I am brought back to him.And my brother, he would devour me. I don’t want any of that to happen to me. Not today
CHAPTER TWELVEKELVIN’S P.O.VI looked up at Dan who had this annoying expression and it was obvious that there was more to his chit chat with Liz.If he wants her he should plainly tell me and not to keep his face as if I was in some contest with him. Because no matter the situation I can never be a rival to Dan. He is clearly not my match. I turned to the food but the sight of it made me loose appetite immediately. “Where must he have gotten this food?” I asked in my thoughts.I wanted to ask him but the frown he was wearing made me think otherwise. Dan is supposed to have known me by now. I don’t give a shit about women.What the hell make him think this one will be different. Just last night I had two beautiful ones, far more beautiful than this one throwing themselves at me.“If I could say no to those ones, what made this one any special?”I thought to myself and from laughing at his foolishness in my thoughts, I burst out laughing.I laughed really hard and after the l
CHAPTER THIRTEENCHARLOTTE’S P.O.VAs I walked through the bushes, the grasses greeted me and I waved at them as I passed. They were the only ones with me and this seems to be my new world.I was enjoying every moment of it. The only problem I had was that I was tired, thirsty, hungry and weak. I needed something to get into my mouth.The journey to my place of rest where the water was was becoming farther than I expected. I then stood at a spot and threw a stick that I could easily identify to the point where I saw the water.“I must sure get to that little pond.” I said to myself.I walked another ten to fifteen minutes and I got to the point where the stick had fallen.I saw it lying helplessly on the ground. I picked it up and behold it was the same stick I had thrown.“Why is there no water here? Why does the pond keep moving further?”I asked expecting someone to give me a response but none came. Then I looked up again and saw the same pond in front. The reflection of th
CHAPTER FOURTEENCHARLOTTE’S P.O.VThe discussion going on amongst the warriors made me regret all my actions. I was also tired of running through the bushes without getting to nowhere.I was already preparing my mind for the worst. What else could happen again that has not happened? I had planned in my mind to come out of hiding and surrender myself to them. Go back to the palace with them and perform the Rut festival.In fact my whole body was beginning to desire a man. And I was almost loosing control of the whole situation.“Is this what every female dragon has to deal with at every heat period?” I asked myself underneath my breath. Looking around to ensure that no one heard any sound from the angle where I was hiding.Gosh,,,, this is me who had planned to submit to them looking around to ensure that no one heard me. This raised the question of what I want in my mind.I debated in my thoughts for what seems like forever. On whether or not to come out and follow them. My
CHAPTER FIFTEENKEVIN’S P.O.VI moved back to the room where I had left Aunty Valkyrie and as I reached for the door to open it, I found that it was locked.This doctor is the most annoying person I have ever met. He is beginning to make my hatred for him to grow. Seeing that I couldn’t get into the room, I headed back to the reception. I met Dan and Liz sitting beside each other. I wasn’t sure of what was going on between them. And the truth is that I didn’t even care. I just came in and sat on the chair directly opposite them.As usual, the silence that diffuse us came again. Penetrating every part of the room. I somehow enjoyed the whole feeling but the silence was deafening.I was very anxious to know what was on their minds and to be honest, I wished I could bring it out of them.It continued until the doctor came out of the room and informed us that she was more stable now and that she would be awake soon.Fgc noDan was the person that talked to him. I just didn’t hav
