The Dragon Prince's Thief 32. Stronger Together
“All things remarkable are surprisingly simple; albeit difficult to find.”― Criss Jami----(Vera)I spent the rest of the day in bed. I was going insane, though. I wanted to know what happened to Thalia Red. After Mateo had gone out when the guard took him away and told him that Thalia was dead, he didn’t come back and I was left staring at the empty walls in the hospital that stood next to the palace. I could see the tall brick walls and tombs of the palace from here.If I had my dragon, I would already have flown away from this boredom, but I was forced to stay here, because... I had just been poisoned."Nova...” I whispered, knowing very well I wouldn’t hear the response. I sighed. ”Come back...”I just hoped she would come back. Knowing that she would come back would be enough for now. But I had no guarantees.The head doctor kept whispering to the young doctors, who looked like they had just started training under the old one.“What do you know about Nighria Oil?” he asked the g
The Dragon Prince's Thief 33. Drowned
(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
The Dragon Prince's Thief 34. Blackstones
(Izza)The house was back to working. The voices were back, as well. It had been quiet for a while. But now I could hear footsteps and voices. Back again. Whatever it was, it must have been bigger for them to stop coming here. Here was where all the plots were plotted and plans were drawn. Here was where how to commit treason was explained in great details. I knew more about their plans than they knew themselves.Even though I hated all of them, the silence was even more worrisome. At least when they were here, I could hear them making plans. Not that I could do anything with the knowledge of their plans, but still... it kept me from losing my head completely.Four walls could do that to you. Four walls, no magic and no dragon!“Thalia Red is dead, and the clan Red Thunder wants blood. This is the time to move in, father. Everything is going to collapse, and along with it, the reign of the Firestorms would be over.” I could hear the unexplained glee in his voice.A friend. A lover. A
The Dragon Prince's Thief 35. Every Feeling
"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
The Dragon Prince's Thief 36. Fire
(Mateo)My life was nothing like Vera's. I had been lucky. Feelings of joy and happiness were a constant in my life. I had everything and anything I could ask for. My parents loved me, my brother and sister were amazing, and life had never been so hard for me. Yes, the knowledge of being someone who would one day rule the Draconia was hard, but I knew I would ace it with the help of my family.I always got what I wanted, but everything changed when I met Vera. I had wanted her like nothing in the world, and she didn’t come easy. She was not an easy, serene person. She was thunder and storm. She was demanding, challenging, loud, and everything I had never experienced in my life.But when she finally whispered the words I had wanted the very next day...“I love you, Mateo.”Nothing I had ever felt come close to this one moment. With her eyes so open, so vulnerable. I knew it took her a lot of courage to say that out loud, and I loved her all the more for it.Life was made of pieces and
The Dragon Prince's Thief 37. Hybrid
(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
The Dragon Prince's Thief 38. Taken
(Vera) I had this urge to say the hell with it and just fly away, but unfortunately, I had no dragon, and I was stuck here as all the other doctors stood around me, looking at me curiously.I was the circus act here.It was really weird, and if Nova was here, she would have probably said something snarky about this."Umm, I want someone to take care of Prince Mateo, he was the one who got hurt," I said with a cough and they all jerked back as if I had punched him. Some of the young doctors looked flustered as they jogged away, grabbing their clipboards."Oh, yeah," Blaine said as he watched his brother. "Who did this to you?""It is Arax, that asshole," Mateo said, making a few women doctors flush before they moved away too. They were probably here just to stare at Mateo and not at me. I bared my teeth at their back as they scampered off and Blaine chuckled as he noticed me."Arax? What the hell is he thinking? His family is already standing on a fucking thin ice," Blaine growled."W
The Dragon Prince's Thief 39. Behind the Mask
(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
