The Dragon Prince's Thief のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

“Men go to far greater lengths to avoid what they fear than to obtain what they desire.” ― Dan Brown----(Mateo)“Nova... Nova is gone...”Vera’s voice was shattered, and I could see the despair in her eyes. I wanted to do something to help her, but I knew I couldn’t.“She will come back,” I whispered as I grabbed her hand in mine. Everything in me had come back alive the moment she opened her eyes.The two hours... just staring at her. Waiting. Wishing. Dying inside. I felt like the half of my soul was gone. I wanted to kill the one who did this to her. Cruelly. I knew Thalia Red was just a girl, but... the anger didn’t stop.And then Vera opened her violet eyes and everything became whole again.“She- I can’t hear her. She is silent, and she has never been silent in her life since the time she came. I am afraid, Mateo,” her voice was soft. “I- I can’t survive without her.”“You came back, Vera. You came back from this and Nova will do the same. She is the strongest, most bad ass dr

(Tyrell)I walked out of the palace, following my dad and sister. My eyes briefly flickered to the dark red spray of blood on the ground. The sand had turned a dark brown, leaving messages of what had happened there. I could almost feel her eye on my back.The body was moved, but the blood stain still stayed. I scoffed. Thalia Red was an useful ally, but I knew the moment when I first met her, that she had to be discarded when it was time. She was like a paper cup, my paper cup. I needed her as long as I needed her, and at the end, she was dispensable.For something great to happen, sacrifices had to be made. She was just the first of the many that would follow.I still remembered the time I met her first in Zarique, the city of literates, as it was called. There were a lot of schools, colleges, institutes in Zarique, and it was a neutral territory existing in between the realm of the wolves and the realm of the witches. The city of Zarique didn’t govern under any supernatural laws. T

"All I ever wanted from you was to know that I was wanted by you. That would have changed everything." - Richelle E. Goodrich----(Vera)“But without a dragon, without Nova, I couldn’t fully be your mate!” I whispered as my eyes burned. Mateo quickly pulled me into a hug. I felt so weak, and I had never felt weak in my life. Without Nova, it felt too empty, too lonely. The silence was like a pit, slowly trying to swallow me. I knew I shouldn't give in, but I couldn't help it. "Without Nova, we would only ever know half of everything. I am sorry, I am so sorry."I hated myself for not marking him, and letting Nova mark him the moment I met him again, but I also knew I couldn't have done that. I had needed the time, and I had taken the time, but now, without my dragon's fire, we would always be partially mated, never become strong enough together to rule the realm.Dragons were the only creatures who didn't have fated mates from the other species. A dragon might have a fated mate with

(Vera)I closed my eyes as the first lick of fire touched me, hissing in pain. Shade quickly twisted around and moved away from the direct line of fire, just before a huge flame hit the ground, charring the emerald grasses. Thank God Shade moved, or I would have become a charred toast.“Who the hell is he?” I wondered aloud as Shade growled under his breath, his voice echoing his rage. I could feel his anger and his fear, as he tried to outrun the other dragon. If I wasn’t here, he could have easily taken the other dragon down. Shade was massive, but I was the disadvantage. “I am sorry you are stuck with me now.”He shook his head, flapping his wings. I held on to him as tight as I could, when he swooped up further, trying to force the other dragon down with his tail and wings.I hissed as the dragon’s tail slammed against Shade’s body and he roared in anger, his voice filling the quiet woods. He opened his mouth and roared once again, and fire, blue and purple, twisted and turned, re

(Faye)My heart was banging in my chest. For a second, everything around me shook, and I saw two of everything.The phone slipped from my fingers as I saw Ezra running out from the kitchen, his hands white with flour, his face pale and bloodless. He looked at me, his eyes wide and worried.My ears were ringing so loudly I couldn't hear anything he said.I knew only one thing. I needed to go."Wait, don't shift yet. Just take a deep breath and now tell him what happened. You have to. And you have to stop panicking." Remi said with a shake of her head. "Faye... you listening to me?""Yes, yes. I am."I could finally hear and breathe."Lili..." I muttered under my breath and he gasped."No, what? Where is she? She was just playing right there, and she wanted cookies. I was just making cookies for her."Nobody, nobody came to our neck of the woods. We had been safe here for years, and then the prince found it. And now these two dragons... My body shook once again, but I knew now was not t
