What Your Love Felt Like-The Dragon Saga

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. ”

he was the trumps card. Could be used in any occasion.

We completed the next couple of hours with complete success .

We are, drank, took a walk and even got complimented by many for being a lovely couple. She was thrilled and so was Damian. I was the only one smiling on the outside but dying of cringe on the inside.

” Draco, did you hear from mother? It would be strange if she did not get this news already and didn’t come nagging around. I hope she didn’t give you a hard time. She didn’t , right Draco? Tell me. ”

She pulled my face towards her.

We were sitting in a park as Damian played with a few other children.

Luckily I was prepared with the answer.

I knew that Liana’s mother had left town after that near fatal incident. She was somewhere abroad.

” Ah! She left, finally! It would be a good thing for her as well. She needed to give me and herself some break.

Any ways… ”

She lay her head on my shoulder.

My hand immediately went to wrap around her.

To make sure she was comfortable and did not fall.

” What month are we in now? I mean the date? ”

” It’s middle of the year Liana. Why do you ask? ”

I was not very accustomed to the human calendar. I could mess up if I randomly guessed.

” Why do you always talk like you are from another planet Draco? ”RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

she suddenly turned around with her leg stretched over my hip.

” Why do you always make me feel so insecure that I might loose you any second?”

Her eyes traveled all over my face finally settling in for my lips.

She pecked once then looked at me.

Then she went in again, this time kissing more passionately.

These kisses were very different from the kisses we shared before.

These had more depths to them, less complications and no baggages.

The parents of the other kids might have seen us like that and might have been getting jealous.

My sharp ears were picking their whispers of appreciation mixed with jealous admirations.

I watched the stars above us drop one by one.

They were saluting me the Dragon Lord or were they saluting this union.

We walked back home like the regular family.

Damian in the middle, jumping now and then and Liana held his hand on one side and I held the other hand.

I would be lying if I did not admit that I was actually enjoying myself.

We reached home. Tucked Damian to sleep together, in his old bedroom. Then I was about to proceed towards the couch when Liana held my hand.

” Where are you going? Let’s go to bed. I feel so tired. ”

She pulled me inside .

I sat down on the bed as she opened her closet and got a night dress out. ”

She smelled the clothes.

” Do you think the clothes need some sunlight? ”

she asked. I had no idea what she meant. So I just nodded like an idiot.

She opened her dress all of a sudden. Just like that. Without even giving a warning.

Then, I remembered. It was normal for ordinary human couples to changes in front of their spouses, just like that.

This was not my Royal Harem where the maids dressed and got my bride prepared.

Me thinking of Kiara in her nightwear at that moment was very weird. Very awkward. But I could not but feel her emptiness in my chest all of a sudden.

I had not felt like this in a long time. Not even after I heard about her death.

In fact her death was my biggest denial.

I refused to admit she was really gone untill and unless I had all the evidence. Even then I did not have the opportunity to properly mourn her because I was worried about my Kingdom and my son.

Now that I remember, I had always been so busy that I never had the chance of missing her.

Now that I was in front of Liana a her pretend husband, my heart and brain decided it was the perfect leisurely combination to conjure find remembrance of my former wife.

But I was missing her all of a sudden. I was feeling sad.

” What’s wrong. What’s the matter. Why are you staring with that face? One would think you were staring at the ghost of your dead wife not an alive one. ”

She tossed her old dress to a side as she slipped into a velvety blue one. It was the colour of the sky in the human world when they have a sunny afternoon.

Liana hopped into the bed beside me and pulled me into a hug as we fell on the pillow together.

That made that melancholy overshadowing my soul evaporate.

As I hugged her back and watched her loose her senses to blissful slumber, a sense of relief replaced my sadness.

My emotions had no meaning not that they were meant to have one.
