Cassandra POV “Let me collect information about him,” Drake said and I waited for his reply. He seems like concentrating on something but his face changes at the end. “Dragane took Ryan with him,” He said standing up immediately. “What?” I asked standing up in the water too. “Yeah, They were planning to attack us and he presented himself to take himself with him,” He said and I asked. “But why does he take Ryan with him and why the hell does Ryan agree?” He looked worried and replied. “There may be something. Maybe he wanted to protect us,” “Or protect me,” I finished, remembering our last moments. He was behaving really worried. He knew that Dragane was coming for me that's why he sent me away and went to meet him alone. But, how would we save him now? I thought and remembered all the moments and tried to understand why Dragane took him with him. “Cassandra, I need to go. Ryan is in danger,” I came out of the chain of thoughts and asked. “What danger?” I asked immed

Ryan POV Darkness was the only thing I was feeling now. Outside and even inside. My whole body was numb and I didn't how much time had passed since I was standing here all tied. My body was completely sweaty and my stomach was growling with insane hunger. My knees turned weak and almost shivered with the pain. The broken foot felt like swelled up but my calls were unanswered. I couldn't even see an ounce of an object in this much darkness forget about tracing anything. The place had utter silence, just the stinky smell of flesh. But, still, my mind wasn't leaving Cassandra and the safety of my Kingdom for a single moment. And the intensity of my thoughts was even more than before. My condition was getting even worse now as with each breath I had started feeling pain in my rib cage. My broken foot was killing me moment after moment. My situation was making me remember my deeds. How I conquered various Kingdoms and killed so many people for the safety of my people. How I enslaved pe

CASSANDRA POV"Kill that bastard Alpha,"Dragane ordered to their soldiers and a shiver of fear ran through my spine.No, no, no, no!I screamed internally and accepted his proposal the next moment."I am ready!"Dragane looked at me with a wide smile.My heartbeats were racing insanely tears collected in my eyes. The mere thought of Ryan getting killed made me insane. There was no use in me if Ryan wasn't with me.Suddenly, I came out of my thoughts when Dragane clapped in front of me.The wide door opened and a few girls came inside.I turned to them as they looked like slaves and stood near to me."Get her ready,"Dragane ordered looking at me with intense eyes and I could sense the lust and mostly the hunger to win over the dragon of me.I just looked blankly at Lucas and Drake who turned shocked and scared too with the sudden change of situations.But, I gave them a 'not to worry' look and walked after the slave.They made me walk out of that hall and I followed them through the d

CASSANDRA POVHis cold face scared me to hell and suddenly I felt his hand cupping my neck choking me to death almost.“I am sorry, my lord! If I said something wrong. Its ju… just I am… I am allergic to metals,”I tried to say and a few tears fell from my eyes and he loosened his grip.“Allergic to metals?” He asked doubtfully.I nodded immediately and he stayed silent for a moment while I was trying to catch breathe.“Do you know magic?”He asked after a few silent moments with knitted eyebrows.I looked into his eyes and wondered if he knew the truth or not because I had to lie. I couldn’t tell him that I learnt magic because then he wouldn’t take those rings off at all.I shook my head silently and spoke.“I wanted to learn magic. My grandmother knew magic but ever since she passed I didn’t know anything about magic,”He looked doubtfully at me and then asked.“Do you know why your grandmother gave you the name ‘Dracona?”I stayed silent for a moment and then replied.“No, I was t

CASSANDRA POV His smile looked beautiful but suddenly his next move scared me to hell when I had my lips over his. He pushed me against the wall and my toes hardly touched the floor in those three steps and the strong sound of chains breaking echoed in the dungeon. What? I was insanely scared all of sudden but his lips caged me immediately not letting me process anything this suddenly. Knots formed in my stomach with fear and excitement and I could feel strong shivers travelling down to the core of my spine. I felt his hands around my waist very next moment, tightly pulling me closer and I unknowingly moaned in the breath. "Oh my God!" I muttered in between as I could feel him mighty all of a sudden. "I love you too, my love," He said and cupped my cheek with his warm hand, kissing me slightly harsher now. My slightly opened eyes looked at the broken chains again and to his now visible veins on his hands but the sweet torture of his on my lips made it hard for the eyes to s
