Anna and her sister Betty left after lunch. Anna and Nyra exchanged their numbers. Cynthia too is happy to meet an old acquaintance.
Cynthia and Betty decided to be in touch, now that the latter shifted to this town again.
After Anna left, Nyra is on edge. She wouldn't be able to rest properly, until unless she talked to Drake about his mate situation.
'If she is still in the picture, then Nyra would leave Drake permanently. She cannot be a home wreck for another woman.
'But what if she is not? Then what?' Nyra hoped.
'You can't be so selfish Nyra. Find out where she is. If it's possible, then help them to be together again' She decided.
But then again, Anna's words rang in her head.
'A dragon cannot be intimate with another woman if his mate is still in the picture' Nyra remembered.
'He kisses me constantly and his hardness was evident a couple of times. If he can be intimate with me, then that means she is not in the picture' Nyra co
Drake could feel Nyra's anxiety through the bond. He doesn't know the reason, but he wants to find out. So he extended his wings and flew towards her grandmother's house.On the other hand, in the Hamilton villa, Caroline is angry on Nyra, for making her write so much. Her palms are still aching."Stupid human, how dare she bully me" she smashed a flower vase and yelled in anger.Sarah looked at her daughter with irritation."Now it's enough. You are destroying my expensive showpieces" she snapped at Caroline.Caroline glared at her mother."It's all because of you. If you didn't force me to go and work there, then I wouldn't have to go and work for a mere human" she said in frustration.Sarah looked at her stupid daughter with anger."If you want to become Mrs. Hamilton and Drake's mate, you should have the patience and cunningness for that" Sarah snapped.Caroline stood in the middle of her brother's room silently.Carlos
Sarah, Caroline, and Carlos don't have the slightest idea of what their drug did. Instead of making Caroline the future Mrs. Hamilton, it made Nyra instead.Only a selected few know the truth.The three of them just realized, Nyra is more than important to Drake. Which made Caroline hate Nyra soo much, that she wanted to twist Nyra's neck and kill her.She started to feel insecure.Sarah on the other hand is pacing the length of Carlos's room, fuming with anger. She never thought a human would capture Drake's attention.Sarah has to admit, that Nyra looks eternal. She has this captivating look going on for her.'No wonder all the men are going gaga over that human' she thought with hatred.No one can stop Sarah when she wants something. She wants the Hamilton mansion and the Hamilton fortune and power it gives her under her fingertips.Roland never let that happen. When he decided to marry her, he made her move to this vill
Nyra couldn't sleep that night. Partly because of what Anna revealed, and partly because, she got so used to sleeping beside Drake. Now sleeping alone feels like a punishment.'You are getting awfully attached to him Nyra. What if his mate returns from where ever she is?' her subconscious reminded her.That is what bothering her the most. If his mate is out there somewhere, and if she finally decides to return to him, then what will she do.Moving away from Drake is the ethical thing to do, for everyone involved. But what would happen to her?She has to learn to live without him. Staying with her grandmother would be the best thing to do.'I need to talk to him, and then I should decide what I would do with my life' Nyra decided.Drake could feel the turmoil and anxiety Nyra is facing.'What is making her so anxious?' he wondered.He is almost nearer to her grandmother's house, but he couldn't feel Nyra inside the h
Drake cursed himself in his head.'What a pickle' he thought.He can understand what Nyra must be thinking now. His silence is not helping anything either.He cannot tell her the complete truth, or he cannot deny having a mate.She is demanding to know where his mate is. He cannot say, it's you.He decided to tell a version of the truth, which is not a lie. He cannot keep lying to her and make their situation even worst."What you are thinking is wrong Nyra. I am not two-timing anyone. You trusted me for a reason, and believe it when I say that, I will never do anything to break that trust. I like you too much to play with your feelings. Won't the world know if I have a mate hiding somewhere? You even met my father, would he approve of our relationship if I have a mate? You stay with me in the mansion, you work with me in the company and you even share a bed with me at night. Wouldn't you know if I am two-timing? Won't hear from someone if I
"Checking on me, ha? How sweet" Nyra said in a teasing tone.Drake nodded his head, his eyes twinkling.Nyra snaked her arms around his neck and stood on her tiptoes.She pulled him down a little until their faces are inches apart."So you are so caring" she commented, they are breathing in each other.Her gaze flickered from his eyes to his lips."What do you think?" he played along."Hmm, let me think"She pretended to be thinking before answering him."That is really good to me and you should be rewarded" she whispered."Really? Then where is my reward?" he asked playfully.Nyra erased the few inches from between them and pecked his lips."That's your reward" she teased him.Drake looked at her hungrily."But I am hungry for more" he whispered."Then who is stopping you?" She said mischievously, before pulling away from him and ran away."It's like that ha?" he asked after her.
Cynthia felt sad when heard the news.Nyra hugged her grandmother."I promise you, I will come and visit you soon" she promised."Ok" Cynthia nodded sadly."Please don't be a sad grandma. I can't work to my full potential if you send me back sadly" Nyra murmured.Cynthia took a deep breath and smiled."I will never let that happen. Now I don't want anyone pointing their fingers at my granddaughter. You go and kickass" Cynthia said with a laugh.Nyra laughed too.Soon Drake came to fetch her up. They landed directly on the rooftop of the Hamilton group. Drake immediately dressed himself up before going down to look at the issue.When they reach the technical department, Nyra looked around and found all the screens lit up with the technical personals from various branches.Jacob noticed Nyra and Drake first. He immediately rushed to greet them."Mr. Hamilton, Miss Adams" he greeted them."What going on?" Dra
"You deal with it on your own. I will double your payment" with that she disconnected the call.Jack looked at the blank screen and started to panic.'Double my payment? What will my double payment do if they decided to kill me' he thought fearfully.He did not notice that someone is watching him and even recorded everything he just spoke with his employer.Steve sent the now recorded video to Drake, Mason, and Nyra.Drake and Mason were surveying the progress of the work when they received the video.They pressed play and watched the 1-minute video.Drake fumed with anger. He looked at Mason who just finished watching the video."Who is making him do this? Why are they Nyra?" Mason asked in a low voice so that the others in the department could not hear their words."That's what I am thinking too" Drake muttered angrily.They both fell silent after that. They looked at Nyra, who is working seriously,
Nyra's head rolled with shock as she heard Drake reveal the disgusting nature of his scheming stepmother, Sarah.Nyra really liked Roland Hamilton. The thought of forcing him to marry her, when he is still miserable after his wife's death.How awful can a person be?"She is doing all this for money?" Nyra asked with shock."Yes," Drake sneered, directing his anger on Sarah."Is she not satisfied with making Roland's life miserable? Now she is sending her stupid daughter after you? I thought of just making Caroline's work tougher, but now I won't be just satisfied by making her work tough. I will teach a lesson to that mother and daughter duo" Nyra said angrily."How can she do that to Roland? He is so sweet. He should have killed her instead of marrying that shameless woman. Now that lady is after you too. I won't leave them easily" Nyra fumed in anger.Drake looked at her protective gesture and his heart was filled with warmth. Everyone who
