Eternal love of the red dragon - Chapter 73

“Seriously Lilith I am fine” Cosmo said and the princess smiled.

“Don’t you think you have lied to me enough Cosmo?” she asked and the girl’s eyes widened as they trembled.

“I… I am not lying” she responded.

“Yes you are…” Lilith shouted as she hit the wall and the ship shook a little.

“What was that?” Sunny asked.

“Probably just the water is rough” Marlene responded.

“Calm down, you planning on turning the ship over?” Cosmo asked.

“Whatever” Lilith responded and Cosmo frowned as the girl was about to walk away then she sat up and grabbed onto Lilith’s hand.

“Stop being so angry” Cosmo said.

“Maybe I will stop when you stop lying to me, I am warning you for the very last time Cosmo, hurt anyone that I care about and I will be the end of you” she replied.

“I know that…” she said.

“Give me one answer…, do you actually care about any of us here?” Lilith asked and Cosmo swallowed deeply.

“I am begging you to stop pushing me to the edge, one day I will hurt you badly because of the lies, let go of my hand” Lilith said.

“I do care, but more about you” she replied and Lilith’s eyes widened as the girl hugged her from behind.

“You are overheating,” Lilith said.

“Huh? What do you mean I am overheating?” Cosmo asked as she raised off of the princess and Lilith looked at her.

“You’re going pale again and your body is like it’s on fire” Lilith responded and the girl smiled.

“That’s what you meant?” Cosmo asked.

“Of course” she responded.

“Don’t worry about me so much, it’s clear to you that’s it’s not worth your time” Cosmo said.

“I worry about all of my friends and despite feeling like you are my enemy right now… I still do” she replied and Cosmo smiled.

“I have nothing against you Lilith, I really hate your father though and that hatred takes over sometimes, so much that I can’t think straight at times,” Cosmo said to herself with a frown.

‘Let go Cosmo” Lilith said as the girl squeezed her hand.

‘I am sorry” Cosmo said and Lilith sighed as the girl released her hand.

“You know it will be nice for you, to be honest, now I am really struggling to not believe my father” she replied and Cosmo’s hands trembled as her eyes started glowing and she turned away from the princess.

‘Anyways get your rest, we will be arriving home by nightfall” Lilith said then walked out of the room and tears started pouring out of Cosmo’s eyes and down her cheek like a waterfall.

‘Is she okay?” Sunny asked as Lilith came back to the living room and she smiled.

“I think she will be fine” she responded.

“Good I am glad,” Sunny said as she threw a bar of chocolate to the princess and Lilith caught it.

“Thanks,” she said and Sunny smiled as the girl opened the chocolate and took a bite and the dragon stretched off.

“My shoulder is starting to really hurt,” Lilith said as Sunny gently lifted the dragon off of the princess and placed it to sleep on the couch.

“By the way, I am taking Blue home but what would I have to feed him?” Lilith asked and Sunny patted her on the shoulder.

That you don’t have to worry about my lady, he hunts for his own food” she responded.

Even though he is so little?” Lilith asked and the girl nodded in agreement.

“Dragons are trained hunters… it’s their instincts, that’s why you don’t need to worry” Sunny responded.

“Well that’s good to know,” Lilith said and the girl laughed.

“Where is Ash?” Lilith asked.

He went up on deck” Jasmine responded.

‘I will be right back” the princess said then walked away.

The girl went up to the deck and saw Ash looking at the water as they go by.

“You okay?” she asked as she stood near him and he smiled.

“Things have changed a lot haven’t they?” he asked and she placed her hand on his shoulder then he turned around and hugged her tightly and the girl’s eyes widened.

“Sorry, but I need it,” he said and she hugged him back.

“It’s fine” she replied.

“You want to talk about what’s bothering you?” she asked.

“The wedding” he responded.

“I don’t know what I can do to help you in this, not only that I am wondering if I should talk to our parents when we get back,” he said as he raised up and her eyes widened.

‘You will do no such thing Ash” she replied and he raised his right brow.

“Why not? maybe they will listen” he said.

“I don’t’ want my father to kill you that’s why,” she said to herself as tears came to her eyes.

“What’s wring Lilith?” he asked and she smiled.

“Listen to me alright, I am okay with the wedding, don’t say anything to my father when we get back, let it be” she responded and he folded his cuffs.

“I will not let them control our lives,” he said and she placed her hand on his shoulder.

“Your hands are trembling,” he said and she looked away.

‘What’s wrong?” he asked.

“Nothing” she responded.

“You are lying, what is it that you are not telling me?” he asked.

‘It’s nothing, I am just worried about the others that’s all” she responded.

“I get it” he said and she smiled.

“You have nothing t do with all of this yet my father is using you and Cosmo against me, if I back out from this wedding he will kill you and I will not let that happen,” she said to herself as her eyes glowed.

‘Ash promise me you won’t say anything to my father pr your parents” she said as she looked at him and he sighed.

“Ash please, it’s the only thing I am asking you for,” she said and he looked at her.

“I don’t know if I can make that promise, I know you won’t be happy in this marriage Lilith, you have a right to choose what you want as a girl…this is your life we are talking about here, he won’t let you choose if we do nothing” he replied and she smiled.

“You have a good heart Ash but you need to make the promise, this is my choice,” she said.

“Lilith please” he replied as she held onto his hands and he sighed.

“Don’t make me do this” he said and she smiled.

“Fine I promise,” he said as he held onto her hand, and then she hugged him.
