Dare To Love A Dragon - Chapter 155
Breaking the rules was something similar to signing your death warrant especially with the king around.
Ander rushed into the room finding Zazel with his hand on his mother’s neck. His heart drummed in his chest in panic.
“No,” he screamed as he dashed and pushed the queen out of the way to the ground. They both fell down to the ground with a loud noise.
Everyone in the room gasped at the way that Ander had reacted with the queen. The queen of Azabia has never once fallen to the ground in her life. She was always on her feet holding her head high with her crown properly placed on her head..
For the first time something more that her feet touched the crown and to top it all, her crown also fell down. There was no bigger insult to a queen than what Ander had done.
Other members of the society that helped to run BOST turned around. They pretended not to have witnessed what had just happened. Their lives were important to them and they didn’t want the king to turn them into decorations.
The Queen lifted her head and glared at Ander, her eyes pierced through his body and his soul. It felt like death was stating him right in the eye and there was nothing he could do about it.
“What in the world did you do that for Ander?” Sofia asked and helped him up from the floor. She offered her hand to the queen to help her up to but the woman didn’t even bother to look at her.
Her eyes followed Ander’s eyes. Her appearance was cold reducing the temperature of the room.
“I know that we have only just met but I never want to see your face again. I disown you as my son,” the Queen spoke and got herself up from the floor.
She didn’t bother to pick up her crown from the floor and looked to the people who’s backs were turned to her.
“When you are done sorting them out come find me,” she said to them. “Make sure that Ander also leaves,” she demanded and opened one of those magical doors and left.
“What was that?” Malia asked confused.
“That was the queen’s way of saying that you have overstayed your welcome,” on of the staff replied to her.
Royan and Razaan finally made it to the room. They walked over to the male relieved that nothing bad had happened and that the boy was fine. They were afraid that something might happen.
“Ander you ar….” he started to say when he was signalled to stop talking with the man who replied to Malia’s question.
“The queen has disowned him and has asked never to see him again. She wants him gone in the next hour,” the man informed them.
Royan and Razaan were shocked to hear that. The queen rarely took drastic measures to deal with situations. Hey couldn’t think of anything that the boy could have done that made the queen mad.
That was when Razaan spotted his mother’s crown on the floor. “How did the queen’s crown get to the floor?” he asked terrified. His mother’s crown on the ground was very bad.
The woman herself would never have keit it there and that meant that someone else was responsible for it. Making the queen drop her crown was a crime that didn’t have a punishment as no one ever dared to do it.
But it was similar to insulting a queen, treason.
“It was an accident. I thought that she was going to kill my mother so I pushed him out of the way and when we both fell to the ground her crown fell,” Ander explained.
Royan was blown out of his mind. He just couldn’t believe what Ander had done and how the male could say it so simple.
“Royan, she was going to hurt my mother,” he defended.
“No she wasn’t, she was thanking me for raising you.She even asked if I would want to stay here and help look after you while you learn to be who you are,” Sofia said clearing his misconception.
“I think the mistake is ours, when we said she could kill your mother. We didn’t mean literally killing her, we meant suffocate her with love,” Royan stated. “The queen can be too loving to those she holds close to her her heart,” he added.
Ander felt bad for how he had reacted. He had hurt he queen for no reason when she was just being friendly. But in his defense it was the two that made him do it. They had given him the impression that the queen was evil and that she was going to kill his family.
Razaan picked up his mother’s crown. “We should go and see how she is. She must be so mad after what happened,” Raz informed to Royan.
The two of them left the room together. Feeling like it was his mistake and that he should apologise to the queen Ander followed behind them.
They moved along the corridors looking for her. All the people they passed were talking about the incident.
“Did you hear that the queen was pushed to the ground by her lost son?”
This were that travelled around the room. Razaan felt a headache coming on. He was in a mood to kill everyone who dared to speak of that moment. It was his mother they talked about and he wasn’t pleased.
He released his aura and once they felt it. Everyone shivered in terror. The ice dragon’s of Azabia were feared by most species in the world so it didn’t take him long to silence everyone.
Their ice could only be removed by them. No fire in the world could melt it. And only they had the strengths to shatter ice made by them. They were a rare king of dragon that could control all other dragons.
The King and queen and their families were the only ice dragons left in the world. Hence they were not just respected but also feared everywhere they went.
Rumour had it that they were learning how to control other species too. And everyone knew that behind every rumour their was a little bot of truth.
They walked into the garden of dragons, where dragons can fly freely in their true form without worry.
Ander got a chance to see many dragons of many different kinds in the garden. Dragons he had never heard and others that he had only read on books all of them were in the garden flying around.
“Do you swim,” Razaan asked him.
He furrowed his brows wondering why he was being asked that. The Phoenix and the ice prince were already stripping off their clothes when they reached the end of the garden.
Ander stared down to cliff to see why they were getting undressed. His eyes didn’t see much, it was dark and it never seem to end.
“I am not going down there,” he told to them.
“Okay,” Royan replied.
Ander released the breath he was holding. Had they insisted that he jump off the cliff to the darkness he just saw, he would have lost it.
“Safe landing,” Royan said to him before pushing him off the cliff and jumping right after him. Razaan followed soon after. The both of them were only in their inner garments as they fell.
“Ahhh,” Ander screamed as he kept falling down the darkness. It was all dark and he couldn’t see anything. He tried to summon fire with his hands but only ice came out.
This is one the moments that he was regretting trading his corrupted powers for the ice he now had. He was losing his mind and their was nothing much he could do about it.
“Will this help,” Royan asked letting out his fire engulfed wings to light the way for them. Ander felt much more relieved until he saw the wall. On the wall there were sleeping creatures that resembled dragons but weren’t dragons. They had a tail like that of a snake but then it wasn’t so.
They had black skin with blue marks from their head to there toe that made them visible to him. They looked scary in his eyes. Just then one of the creatures opened its mouth to yawn.
There were like seven layers of teeth in the creatures mouth that he could spot and they were very sharp. He swallowed hard.
He moved and grabbed hold of Royan’s hand. If any of those things were to grab him with their teeth he would be dead in a second.
“What are those?” he asked to him.
“Protectors of the BOST, they ensure that no intruders come in and that no one who causes trouble stays long,” Royan stated to him.
