The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair

“Open the safe! 336543 is the passcode!” A guard yelled. “The gemstones are gone!” The guard panicked. I couldn’t believe it; my holder dream was unfolding before my eyes. “Someone alert the queen and king!” It didn’t make sense, I told Calvin the plan was postponed.

“Calvin and Ruben were supposed to wait, they needed me. I was going to use my ability so nothing would go wrong. They’re risking our one chance.” I panicked. “I need the gemstones so that I can use the increase of my power to protect myself against the royal army and help the people of the kingdom. I’m going to be who they blame for this.”

“It’s okay Aqua, we’ll figure it out, you don’t have to worry. I’m going to protect you,” Lexus said. He’d protect me but who’d protect the kingdom?

I closed my eyes and looked around the castle with my third eye. “They’re cornered… fuck it’s not looking good.”

“This was your plan Aqua? To steal the gems??” Cade whispered yelled at me when he walked to us.

I watched Calvin and the rest of the pack struggle to try to get away with the gems. “Well yeah, they should be with me so I can do my job as a holder. This isn’t exactly my plan because Calvin and Ruben executed it without me.” I took a deep breath. “Shit, it’s over, they weren’t able to secure the gems.”

Lexus grabbed me. “Come on, it’s better if we’re not anywhere in sight.”

My eyes stayed closed as Lexus led me back to his room. “What are you doing?” I asked.

“Packing.” Lexus answered. “We’re leaving now. I don’t need too much. Cade are you coming with us?”

Cade scoffed. “I’m not going anywhere with you Lexus. Don’t forget what you did to me. I was only around you to find Aqua. Now she’s here and I don’t want to see any more of you.”
