The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair

I took a few steps away from him. “I just got here… I don’t want to make any trouble for the sake of fun. Apparently, I might have to work for you for most of my life so let’s not make it weird…” I’d have to work for Sadia too when they get married so that’d make it even worse.

Lexus walked back in front of me, and we were practically pressed against each other. “You’ll have to work for me for a long time, a part of that is doing whatever I say.” He seemed like the type to abuse his power and position which was disappointing.

My heartbreak is almost nonexistent. I might have had a new heart break because it’s not like I could be with Lexus. The more I thought about it the more I questioned why I couldn’t. Maybe he

why did I feel like this? It had to solely be the mate bond. I can’t really feel like this about someone I just met. As time went on, I paced, stared out the window, and laid in bed thinking. I concluded that I could hate Lexus instead. It’s a strong emotion too although the problem is that it would get in the way of work. Maybe I wasn’t the holder, and I could live the rest of my
