Lahat ng Kabanata ng Guardian Dragon: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

Azura-While we ate breakfast, I barely paid any attention to the food Cyran made. I was more focused on everything he was telling me. My mind kept circling back to who hired the man I now knew as Larry. Despite Cyran’s best effort to convince me that Arric wasn’t behind it, I couldn’t help but think I was right.My entire life, at least my present life, I have always had this uncanny sense of awareness. When I had a feeling that something wasn’t right, I always listened to my instincts. I have yet to be proven wrong either. The only time my instincts failed me was when I moved to this town. I kept getting a feeling that I was safe, but then I realized that I hadn’t been safe. I had a feeling that it was because Cyran was nearby though.Even when he irritated me to no end before, I have always felt as if he would protect me. After regaining some of my memories, I realized that even in my past life I had felt safe with him. For the first time since being around Cyran though, I don’t

Azura-“No!” I screamed as I watched Arion being killed in front of me again.I couldn’t see who had been responsible, as the face was blurred. I was once again having the dream of when I had been killed, except it started from where I left off. I thought that perhaps I would be able to see the person’s face, but just like before it was blurred out.Seeing as I wasn’t going to be able to directly identify the one who caused my death, I tried not to get emotional as I focused on the scene before me. Even if I couldn’t identify the person, I might be able to learn who it is.“Why?” The past version of me asked.“I have been planning this for years and for once I was able to fool your mate into leaving you alone. It isn’t my fault that this one also kept getting in my way. Unlike your mate, I know I can defeat him. Now I just need that stone you carry so I can become the King I am meant to be.” The voice was distorted, so I couldn’t identify who it was.As the person stepped over Arion’s

Azura-Back at the house, Cyran carried me into the bedroom to lay me on the bed. It had been a week since he found me, but I was still feeling weak. Cyran found a doctor who could put the Stone back in my body, but now it was a waiting game to see if it would reject me.The doctor had been concerned about the Stone rejecting its host due to the fact that I hadn’t protected it before. We considered not putting it back in at all, but if we hadn’t, it could have been worse. The Stone needed a host, but supposedly I was the only one who could do it.If I didn’t take the Stone back, I could also die from it as well. It had been a toss-up, but the best course of action was to return the Stone to my body. Cyran was a nervous wreck, as was I, but I was doing my best to hide it.I didn’t want him to worry about me more than he had to. As soon as the Stone was returned to my body, he marked me again, making me his mate again. This time, I was happy about it. Since the moment he found me, he ha

Cyran-Gritting my teeth for control, it took everything inside of me to not react. If I did, I would give Arion precisely what he wanted. Until I could prove what he had done, my hands were tied. If I reacted now, it would give the council more of a reason to take away my title.For now, I needed to remain calm and hope that the others did as well. Tightening my grip on Azura, I kept her behind me as we entered the room. At least I didn’t need to worry about Kellan. He knew what was at stake.If I had been granted the time needed to speak to the council privately, I might have been able to sway them. As it stands, there would be no way to get them on my side. It wasn’t just the council in the room, there were also others that I knew would side with Arion.I wasn’t sure how he managed to wiggle his way onto the council, but I had a feeling this was all premeditated. Keeping Azura slightly behind me, while Kellan also walked in front of her, I was tempted to tell her to meet up with Ja

Azura-Three days passed before I was able to have the energy to move around on my own. During those three days, Cyran hasn’t left my side except long enough to get me something to eat, take a shower, or use the bathroom. I felt bad that he was taking care of me as much as he was.I had even had a few moments of depression where I thought it might be better to remove the Stone. The only reason I didn’t carry through with the thought was because I wasn’t sure if it was a good idea. There was no telling what would happen to the Stone after being without a host for so long.Now it didn’t matter because the Stone had finished settling inside of me. Now I was mostly back to normal, although I wasn’t in the best condition yet. It was clear that I wasn’t becoming a Dragon and that it had just been the Dragon Stone.After the first twenty-four hours, new human cells started to appear. There was a small part of me that had hoped I would become a Dragon, so I wouldn’t feel as useless around Cyr
