I carried her on my back outside. Just like that. I even made that weird ' vroom, vroom' noise with my lips, to mimic the sound of cars that humans make. I was pretending to sweep her off the ground and give her a piggy back ride to our so called favorite restaurant. I didn't even have any idea where that was because I had not been to any, except one where I stood outside during our last visit and Liana ordered some take-aways . It was working because I could hear her smile. I took a look at her car that needed a lot of effort to get started. "Let's take a cab.The car needs some fixing. I will do that in the tomorrow. I promise. "She looked concerned. " Draco, you loved cars. Why would you be neglecting ours? How had you been travelling? Was everything all right while I was gone Draco? Is there something you are hiding? "A lot. In fact I was hiding everything. " Liana, can you stop over worrying? Let's just go get some food. I am starving you know. And so must be Damian. "h

The sound of a metal vase tumbling across the hall was enough to let anybody guess that Lucian was not in a good mood that day. He was seething with anger as he heard the news that his brother Draco was playing family with the human and his child in the human world. How could the Dragon King forsake his duty to their kind and consort with such a lowly creature when he did not do so for his dragon wife?As he paced back and forth in his lair, Lucian's mind raced with thoughts of betrayal and dishonor. How could his own brother put the needs of a human woman before their own kind? Had Draco forgotten the centuries of tradition and loyalty that bound them as dragons?Did he finally decide to show his nonchalance for a human which he refused to do even for Kiara? How dared he? That was not happening under Lucian's watch. Draco could not get whatever he wanted and whenever he desired. Lucian had always been fiercely loyal to his kind and their way of life, and he couldn't fathom why Dra

" Is this it? Are you trying to defy the laws of heavens or are you just trying to put me down? "Lucian finally asked. His eyes still closed and his chest heaving. I was glad that he did. " I am the law Lucian! And I am not trying to put anybody down!"We were at the empty parking lot a few blocks away from Liana's place. In Lucian's desperation he had risked exposing the reality of the Dragon kind in front of mere human eyes. It was astounding luck that not that many witnessed our tussle midair . The place where Liana resided was more or less isolated from the heavy traffics. Even then it was not safe to let them humans witness or existence first hand. History was smeared with tales of every possible unpleasant after effects of when humans panicked because of us dragons. " What new games are you trying to play Dragon Lord? What is your intention with the human? Do you wish to use and throw Liana away as well just like you did with Kiara? "" I never used Kiara like you accu

I didn't waste any more time coming backAs I walked towards Liana and Damian, I felt my heart racing with excitement and anticipation for no particular reason. It started feeling like it had been so long since I last saw them,though in reality is had not even been days in human time. The thought of being reunited with them was overwhelming . It felt like I was coming back to my beloved family just like another human father, returning tired from work. It brought me great joy.As I approached them, Liana's eyes met mine, and I could see the mixture of surprise, happiness, and apprehension in her gaze." Oh, you are already back! "She jumped at me with a start. I knew I did not have a lot of explaining to do, but before I could even say anything, Damian ran towards me, his small arms reaching out for a hug.That was very unlike Damian. He never openly showed affection towards me. Not atleast like he did with Liana. It felt like a rush of cool breeze to my rugged soul. I lifted Damia

The sight of Draco with Liana was a constant source of desperation. Lucian was filled with an all-consuming hatred towards his brother, and the woman he longed for. It felt like a crushing weight on his chest that he couldn't shake off.Lucian couldn't help but compare himself to his brother, and the unfairness of it all. He had the same desire to claim a her, yet fate had conspired against him. He cursed himself for not being the one to find her first, for not being the one to make her his own.When he watched Draco and Liana together from afar, Lucian's mind was consumed with thoughts of what could have been. "Why did I have to be cursed with this longing, this ache that I cannot satisfy? Why must I suffer in silence while my brother basks in the warmth of her love?" he yelled to himself, frustrated at his own inability to control his emotions.Lucian's jealousy burnt like a wildfire, fuelling his hatred towards his brother. He couldn't bear to see them together, to see the love and
