Chapter75. Draco’s POV :Lucian
” 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 accuse me Lucian. Neither did I throw her away . She was snatched away from me if you remember. She was murdered. I Know how you felt about her. May be you should try helping me find her murderers than despise me for the rest of your life. ”
Lucian burst out into a little laugh at that.
But before we could talk about things further, Liana came running at us. And she had Damian in her arms.
” What the hell have you two been doing? ”
She came running at us with a very impressive speed for a human.
She extended one hand towards me and the other she gave to Lucian.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
It clearly signified that she knew and remembered him.
Were her old memories all coming back?
Was she returning to normal.
” It was lucky Damian told me you two have been fighting on the streets again. It’s lucky you guys did not attract the cops this time. Look at your states. How badly have you two been fighting? Why? ”
I saw Lucian grab her hands as he stood up, but he wouldn’t let it go.
” Shouldn’t you have dropped at our house when you came back to town instead of calling Draco out like this? What are you guys? Five year old kindergartener s? ”
At this point I realised she didn’t regain any memories but she did remember Lucian for some reason. I did not yet know what character he played in her made believe life.
” Come on. Let’s head straight back home. Let me get your wounds treated. ” She really looked very strict like an angry teacher.
” I don’t need to go anywhere and I don’t need to be treated my any human! ”
Lucian tried but Liana was fierce.
” Shut up and do as you are told. You don’t need to be treated by human. Do you want me to conjure up some mythical creature? ”
At this point she was pulling him back home while I walked behind, carrying Damian this time.
It was a weird sensation.
A weird feeling of being left behind.
A creeping chain with prickly things.
A heaviness around the heart.
Was this what they called jealousy?
We did not have any other dialogue till we reached Liana’s place.
” Sit down both of you. ”
she yelled.
I sat right on the chair next to me and strangely Lucian too obliged.
But he sat on the couch across the hall, next to the kitchen.
” Together. Sit together, both of you. Side by side. ”
I was the Dragon Lord. I never took orders from anybody else.
But her voice was commanding, it immediately made me obey .
I went to sit beside Lucian as Liana brought the first aid box.
She went ahead and cleaned out wounds and then taped it.
Lucky that she taped them because our wounds were already healing and it would have been a lot of problem explaining that to her .
” I will make dinner.
Stay with us tonight! ”
I saw Liana tell Lucian but he haughtily declined.
” What makes you think that I will? ”
he moved so fast that it made Liana move back. As she did she was about to slip on a chair.
I was about o grab her but Lucian caught her before myself.
They stayed in that position as I got locked in mine.
I saw their eyes staring each other .
There was this unspoken communication that I was not a part of.
This made me hate Lucian a hundred fold, but it also made me understand him better.
I understood his resentment. I understood the source of his aggression towards myself.
I would also have perhaps behaved in the same way if I was him and he got my girl.
Finally I saw Liana gently push Lucian away.
” I think you will stay because I asked you to. I think you will longer around a little longer and play with your nephew. I hope you will come and visit us the next time through that main gate. With chocolates in your hands for our little Damian. And I really wish you will come along the next time with someone’s hand in your hand. It would be great to be able to go on a double date, wouldn’t it Draco? Like a big happy family. I hope Lucian you will be able to grant us that? ”
I tried reading the look on Lucian’s face.
It went from surprised to shocked to disappointed to disgusted .
” Whoever gave you any right to meddle in my personal affair? To hell with your big happy family dreams, to hell with your hospitality. I wish you two no love no hate. I will be heading back home Draco. And I quit from all the responsibilities that you levied on myself. ”
I saw him throw his official dragon badge on the floor and take off from the window.
Lucky that Liana was busy picking the badge up.
She did not notice him flare into a fierce dragon midair.
” What is this Draco? What responsibilities were he talking about? ”
She asked me with her innocent lips that were again twirling into a look of tension.
