The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair

The woman Lexus was with stopped when she got to the top of the staircase. “You don’t have to walk so far behind me. You're mated aren’t you? I’ve heard rumors about it, apparently you ran off with the holder and you’re marked. You both are very controversial now.”

Lexus chuckled. “Yeah I know. If you knew I might have been marked then why would you touch my shoulder and kiss me?” I didn’t feel good after hearing that someone kissed him, but I didn’t stop watching because I had faith in him.

She leaned over the staircase railing. “I kissed your cheek, it’s not a big deal. I just wanted to mess with you. I think I can offer you a job since you are a childhood friend.” She gave an expression of thinking. “You’ve been taught to rule since you were like twelve so I can offer you a job to be in charge of one of our branches.” She walked down the hall. “It’s a shame you’re marked.”

“Viv, I’m not here for you to realize your childhood crush. I’m here to find work. I care about my mate a lot and I want to be able to not just protect but support her too. I’m also not used to doing nothing.” I knew everything was fine and that my family overreacted.

“I’ll give you the job.” She smirked. “If you show me a good time. There’s a protection spell on the building, your mate won’t know.”

Lexus laughed. “You might not believe it but we’re true mates. I’m qualified enough to get the job without sexual favors.”

“True mates?? You're Kidding.” She threw her hands up. “I might have a mage employed who’s strong enough to prevent even a true mate from being able to know.”

I opened my eyes. “He’s in a manner with a childhood friend. He’s just trying to start a career since he’s not going to be king anymore.”
