Nyra unable to hold herself, leaned on Drake to avoid falling. "Are you alright?" he asked her with concern."Ya, feeling a little dizzy" She absently rubbed on the spot where they injected her with the drug.Drake noticed her movement and looked at the spot where she is rubbing. The area around the spot where the injection stuck became a little red and swollen."What happened? How did you end up here?" he asked her gently."Someone called me last night and told me that my grandmother is admitted to the hospital. That guy claimed himself as the nurse working in that hospital. I believed him. Why would I even doubt? I am a girl from the small village around here. I don't have enemies. So I didn't have any reasons to doubt him. I packed an overnight bag rushed to see how my grandmother is. But that guy told me to get down the bus in a stop near the hospital. He offered to pick me up. I agreed thinking that, it would save me some time and I can see m

Nyra did not remember much about the previous night. All she remembered was the bone-chilling cold making her feel like, she is in the deep freezer.The next morning, Nyra is feeling comfortable Lying on the hard surface surrounded by a cocoon of warmth, which is cozy and comfortable.She just woke up, her eyes still closed and she is feeling refreshed and energetic. Her brain didn't catch up to the events of the previous day, giving her a reprive of a few minutes.Slowly Nyra became fully awake and she felt as if her back is near to a heating furnace.'Ha?' She was confused for a couple of seconds before the reality slowly trickled in.She started to remember everything from the previous day. 'Last night I clearly remember being ice cold. Then suddenly how did it became so hot?' She thought with confusion.All she saw in front of her and above her is black colored solid rock. The tree branches are still standing tall, covering the mou

"Come eat" Drake pointed towards the Fruits and vegetables he bought with him.Nyra looked at the fruits hungrily. She is so hungry after her battle with that sinking mud pit.Nyra picked up the food and started to eat hungrily. Drake looked at her with amusement.'This female is a contrast to all the others I know. She doesn't fawn over me like they do. She doesn't worship the land I walk on. She dares to snap at me when she gets angry. I wish my mate has these qualities' he thought looking at her.Nyra noticed him looking at her weirdly. 'Is something on my face? Why is he looking at me like that?' "Why are you not eating?" She pointed out.Her comment snapped Drake out of his daze."I was waiting for you to finish so that I can eat the rest" he drawled lazily.That's when Nyra noticed in front of her. Unknowingly she pulled everything in front of her, leaving nothing for him to eat.Nyra felt embarr

 Drake saw Nyra being pushed into a tree. Her hands are tightly pulled behind her back. And her attacker is trying to tear her clothes.He immediately went and pushed the guy away from Nyra.Louis was roughly pulled away from behind by someone. He looked up and found the furious face of none other than his nightmare Drake Hamilton."No, no" Louis chanted with fear.He started to crawl backward in fear.Drake reached him in just a couple of long strides and pulled him up by his neck. He started to squeeze Louis's neck tightly.Louis started to struggle to free himself away from Drake. But Drake is furious and all he wanted to do right now is kill the man in front of him.By his scent, Drake immediately recognized the other man as a red dragon. Red dragons have a very sinister smell associated with them."A stupid red dragon" he roared angrily.Louis became purple with a lack of oxygen. His strength is a no ma

Drake is ashamed of himself and the way he claimed his mate. He is sure she will run away from him as soon as she recognizes him. 'How would I make her understand that it's not intentional? She must be thinking very badly about my character. That's why she ran away from him as soon as she can. How can I fault her, when I am the one who forced her' Drake thought with regret.He is angry with his stepsister for scheming against him and drugging him.'I will make sure to punish her wayward ways' he thought angrily."You don't have to tell me if you don't want to" Drake prompted her when she remains quiet.He thought she is repulsed by her mate and is ashamed to admit what he did to her. So she is quiet.Nyra on the other hand is not all repulsed by her mate. She flushed thinking about what he had done to her that night. What scares her the most is her grandmother's words.'He will kill you as soon as he finds you Nyra' her grandmother war
