Book TRK
Chapter 93
MIRA
“Mira, you are back!”, the man runs to me and I quickly take a step back, making him s flinch at that. I now look closer at him and know that he is the gerdian who danced with me at the ball.
“What is this? Where are we?” I ask, a bit terrified with everything that is going on.
“Mira, it’s all right,” he raises his hands in a defensive move and doesn’t take any other attempts to get closer to me, “You are safe here and I wouldn’t do anything you don’t want me to. I promise.”
“All right,” I say after a while, “Then answer my previous questions. What is this? Are you playing with my mind as well?”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“No,” he answers without any hesitation, “Our minds are connected.”
“How so?”
“We exchanged our b***d when we were kissing and it triggered this kind of connection… Now when we both are open to it and want to see each other, we can connect through our dreams,” the man sits at the edge of the sofa.
“How do you exchange b***d through a k**s?” I snort.
“I bit your l*p and you bit my tongue. The first time,” he chuckles.
“The first time?” I raise my brow.
“Yeah, we kind of were doing similar things to each other later on and it was topping up the effect. Not that it could be gone. Ever. But every time we do this again the signal is getting stronger,” he replies with a very calm tone and somehow I feel like I start to trust him. Gods, I hope that it’s not another trick and he is not using me the way Tristan does.
“What is your name?” I ask after I sit on the far corner of the sofa. As far from him as possible. Yet still way too close to my liking.
“Derrien Derwood,” he says with some kind of bitterness in his voice.
“So… We were in love?”, I look at him to not miss his reaction. He shrugs at my words and looks directly into my eyes.
“We ARE in love, Mira,” he says without hesitation, “You just don’t remember it because your ex poisons you on a daily basis with Sideria!”
“How do you know? About Sideria?”
“Thanks to you,” he chuckles, “Someone was using it at the Selection and killing the girls they needed out. I was investigating and you were helping me. They still outplayed us, though…”
“What happened there? I do not know anything and I feel that Tristan is not being honest about it…”
“Clever girl,” he smiles at me with a proud look in his eyes, “They tried to kill me and the Crown Prince of the Empire. They did not succeed. But, unfortunately, some of the participants of the Dark Selection died. Everything happened in the middle of the ball…So…”
“Was Tristan one of them?”
“Yes,” Derrien grits through his teeth, “He kidnapped you first with the help of your friends, drugged you for the first time as well… And then he and his two accomplices created a powerful explosion. I was looking for you like crazy in that chaos… But I felt you away. I saved whoever I could and shifted to…”
“You are a dragon,” I interrupt him and he smiles softly, “How does that even work…”
“That’s a story that you already know, Mira,” he replies, “You just need to remember…”
“But how can I?” I jump to my feet, “I am not taking any more medication! I am even taking the detoxifying elixir but it just doesn’t help!”
“Of course it does,” he stands up as well and comes closer, “Otherwise you wouldn’t be here now. I tried to connect to you for weeks! You were completely blocked, I couldn’t reach however hard I tried! And now… here you are…”
He takes a lock of hair off my face and then brushes my cheek softly. I feel tingles erupt through my skin… like tiny sparks…
“Sparks…” I say out loud for some reason, “You usually have sparks in your eyes when you do that…”
“I do,” he says before slamming his lips into mine. His arms wrap around my body before I even try to push him away. And then I just don’t want to… The k**s is intoxicating but it’s a good kind of intoxicating… As his tongue explores my mouth and his hands are pressing me harder and harder into him, I forget about everything… And when I open my eyes, we are somewhere else… I see grass, woods, mountains and a small hut…
I look up at him and he pulls me inside of the hut.
“Why have you brought me here?” I ask.
“Because when we went through the portal it was your significant place,” he replies.
“W-why?”
“You saved my life in that little hunter’s house,” he smiles as we walk inside, “And then you became mine for the first time and forever.”
He is not lying and I know that place. Moreover, I could almost feel his body on mine… I’ve been with him. I am his…
He pulls me into another lingering k**s and this time I wrap my hands around his neck, slowly and hesitantly… but it makes him g***n with delight and I like it. We fall into the direction of the small bed but somehow we land into soft sheets and cushions of my bed in the palace.
He looks around slowly and then looks at me.
“Is this where you are now?” he asks and I nod, “Good. Let’s make some memories here as well!”
On my bedside table lies a sapphire brooch in the shape of the butterfly, the one I was wearing at the ball. He touches it and it starts to flap its wings and then flies away… And like a flashback before my eyes, I see another ball, a lilac dress, me and him dancing… and magical butterflies flying to and from my outfit… I smile and so does he… and then we meet at the hut… Such a small detail as a butterfly jogged my memory…
“Rien!” I exclaim and look at his eyes filled with his dark magic, “Rien!”
“Oh, thank gods, Mira,” he covers my lips with his and entwine my fingers in his hair, bringing him closer to me. I want him as close as possible! I don’t want to ever be separated again.
Our clothes disappear in the flames of dark magic which do not burn me. If anything it feels like another kind of foreplay. He enters me roughly, taking me again and again like a hungry beast. And I enjoy every second of it, repeating his name, chanting even. I feel his and his dragon’s passion and reply with everything that I’ve got. I belong to him, I wear his mark with pride… I c****x again and again in his hands and waves of pleasure ripple through my whole body….
And it made me wake up.
