The Dark Dragon Prince
The one in front spoke, his voice deep and devoid of emotion.
My heart was hammering so hard against my ribs I was afraid they could hear it.
The warrior lifted his hand and immediately, servants entered behind them carrying large wooden chests.
“These are gifts sent by Prince Draven for his bride.” He said.
My eyes widened as they lifted the lids. Lisa gasped, even mother took a step back.
Inside the chests were bars of gold, jewels, rubies the size of eggs, strings of flawless black pearls, and golden artifacts that looked older than our entire kingdom. Everything practically screamed how wealthy and powerful their master was. But it didn't feel like a beautiful gesture.
