Chapter The lost dragon prince
Jefferson POV
After I came to understand that there were also citizens of the dragons country. My heart palpitates in Joy, my dragon wanted to be close to them, to let them know that I'm grateful to have them here close to me.
It's been a whole day, I have been trying to get to know them better. we started a walk towards the garden where I had to disclose how they came here and what they were searching for.
I was about to start an Intensive conversation with them, then I stumbled on a body, it then managed to send chills down my spine.
I turn to look at what I had stumbled upon, my gaze went wide, my eyes furrowed, trying to decipher who it was.
I came to realize it was the body of the vampire king, the man who had me under his mercy for long. So much rage swept through me.
I drew in a breathe, while trying to forget about the past and live in the present.
"Bury him" I commanded with so much authority.
"Yes my Lord " Josh bowed before me before he took the body and headed towards an unfamiliar room, Because I'm still yet to get acquainted to my environment.
"We are glad to finally have you here my lord " the voice of Susan resonates, her voice was calm and full of respect.
"Have you been looking for me?" I asked gently.
She fidgeted with her skirt, her gaze narrowed while her pearly white skin turned pale. She immediately knelt down on the ground while looking at me Intently into my eyes, her blueish eyes bored into mine. She uneventfully held my garment, her eyes was already begging for forgiveness.
"Please forgive me my lord, I had greatly offended you, I'm pleading for your mercy, have mercy my lord". My brows was furrowed, I attempted to jerk away from her grip, but it was firm and untouchable, she was bent on receiving forgiveness. "Okay, I'll like you to vividly explain what you had done wrong that deserves forgiveness?" I asked with my voice etched with the authority I never knew I had.
"I'm sorry my Lord, after the dead of your father, the Great ruler of the dragon country, we were forced to leave the country. under the tyrant rule of the present king, he has been looking for you and your brother because he had always seen you as a threat my lord.
So we had to come down to the vampire kingdom, but we vaguely perceived the dragon scent, despite that, we never attempted to break you free my lord. For that reason we are sorry my Lord. If you decide to have our head decapitated we would willingly agree to your decision my lord " she said with so much respect, she was remorseful. And I can't easily detect that from her voice and choice of words.
I thought for a while before I decided to asked. "There is something I came to understand here, my dragon scent was vague, I bet it was my lycan scent that was more dominant, but you failed to help because you were afraid or because there was an influence from the other party?".
She was silent for a while, before she said," I'm sorry my Lord, but there was an influence from another party, it was a witch her deep Hazel eyes, her thin lips, was masked with a red balm. She always cover herself in a dark cape, making her untouchable. I can still remember her White skin so apparel with her long brown hair my lord".
"Mmm.. so where can I find her, Because if I need to judge, I need to judge the both of you" I said.
"I'm sorry to disclose this news my lord, but she has left with your mate my lord"
"Mate?" That word was questionable, I thought for a while. Her face was vague, but I can still hear her voice calling out to me. it was very soothing and calming.
"Can't you remember my lord" she asked. A smirk was flashed though her face, but immediately disappeared in seconds. I pretended to be ignorant about it.
"Yes... I can't remember, even though her face seem so vague in my memory, I can still hear her voice calling and begging me" I said. After some countless attempt to remember who she was, my head ached so badly and I had to stop my futile attempt.
"Bring me the old witch you had accused" I said coldly.
I noticed the way she creased her brows, her fist gently clenched, trying not to be visible under my gaze. She thought for a while, Before she decided to defend her words.
"But my lord, it was not an accusation"
"I said that because I'm not certain of your allegations you have mounted on her, so I had to confirm myself" I said.
"But my lord, I don't know where I can find her, because after the Incident with the vampire king, I'm sorry to disclose it to you that she disappeared but she seems impossible to find her" she said with her head still low. I appreciate her allegiance and her respect towards me, but there is something untrustworthy about her that I needed to dig myself.
"You don't need to look for me anywhere, Because I'm here my lord" i heard the voice of a woman her voice sounded husky adding with some croakiness that I can't deny.
"Who are you?" I asked gently but my voice was intimidating.
"I'm your faithful servant my lord, I have come here to direct you to your mate".
'mate...' I don't know why that word brings unknown ecstasy into my earthly being.
"I want to see that mate you had made mentioned of, can you take me to her" I said to her.she nodded before she took graceful strides towards the open environment.
She mumbled some words, oblivious to my hearing, I wasn't surprised when the end result was disappearing from my location to another location. "Go in my Lord" she said.
I walked in, my heart was beating erratically before I heard the most sweetest and most soothing voice, while she was singing in the bathroom.
