The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair

Konn’s POV

Once I let Aqua and the others leave with the five gemstones I had explaining to do to the king and queen. “I don’t get it Konn, what happened?” The king asked me.

I explained everything to them about Aqua’s holder dream and the truth about what Diana intended for holders. “So, you let Aqua leave with the stones?” The Queen asked. “We can’t just forgive that. This offense could lead to your arrest for treachery.”

Did they hear anything I had said? “Did you know?”

“No Konn but no other holders have made these claims before. We’re doing great things for the kingdom. How could the holder do more anywhere else?” King Peter might have not been my best friend anymore, but he once was. I know when he’s not telling the whole truth.

“Did you know?” I asked again.

Peter sighed. “Yes. When I became King, my father explained it to me. It’s altered history that werewolves teach.”

“It’s not altered. Aqua spoke with the moon goddess who confirmed this. The moon goddess didn’t speak to any of the past holders because they were groomed into loyalty. You didn’t care about my daughter's well-being and you were ready to manipulate my son into being the holder you wanted. I stood up. “I quit, so future generations of my family won’t be used. Call for my arrest in the name of treachery, I don’t care.”

Peter stood up. “We were raised together Konn, call it manipulation or grooming but we were raised like brothers. You would walk away from that?” No other adviser or holder could walk away from it. They made sure that we felt a deep bond with the royal family so leaving would feel wrong.

I didn’t say anything, instead I walked out. He stopped being my brother a long time ago. I went back to my room and only took what I could hold in my pockets. I helped Gray pack. “Why are we leaving?”
