The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair

Aqua’s POV

After hearing my mother’s story, it made me think a lot about my own. “I understand everything now, but I can’t stay here.”

“Okay… but Aqua please stop seeing Prince Lexus. I don’t want this for you.”

“I will but not until Monday. I need these last few days…”

She frowned. “You heard my story. Trust me Aqua, you don’t want to be in that position.” That’s exactly what she said in my dream. “I don’t regret any of it, but I still want to save you the heartache. Stop seeing Lexus. Not Monday, not tomorrow, now. The worst part is the hope you have that he’ll leave her won’t ever go away…”

My eyes watered because she was right. “Okay… you’re right, I should do it sooner than later. That still didn’t change my decision. I can’t stay here Mae.”

Mae frowned. “Even if it means your lifespan is shortened? You already live a lot shorter than the full dragon shifters. The king and queen won’t let you retire after the next adviser takes over. You’ll still use your abilities for them and die early because of it.”

I didn’t know that before my mother’s story, so I haven’t had time to think about it. “Holders are able to do so much for their kingdom, the sacrifice is equal.” I got up. “I should go.” I felt nothing but disapproval from my mother. “Here.” I grabbed a pen that was on the coffee table and wrote my number on a scrap piece of paper on the table. “Here’s my number, I’ll come back when I’m not busy working.” I still wanted a relationship with her, but it had to be on my terms.

Mae got up and hugged me. “You’re so much like your father.”

I walked out of the room. “Time to go.”

“Already?” Konn asked.

out of guilt. “I understand…” She looked at me then at Konn. “We should stop this all together.” She wanted to set a good example for me. “This has been going on for way too long Konain, I
