What Your Love Felt Like-The Dragon Saga

I knew I had to go see her. I needed to feel her calm. I knew the intensity of what Master had said. It wasn’t something unknown but probably something I had forgotten. Somehow, being with Liana, she never made me feel that she was different from me and Damian. We were always like a family. That’s what it felt.

Talking of family, I just realised that I had come back in a rush. I had forgotten to bring Damian along. What was I going to tell Liana about it? How would I explain?

I knew that Liana would not be happy about it, and I started to think of excuses to tell her. Maybe I could say that I had to stay late at work, or that I had forgotten something important at the office. But deep down, I knew that these excuses wouldn’t work. I had to be honest and apologize for my mistake.

I came to the door and rang the bell like normal humans. Normally I would land straight on her roof and then sneak in. Tonight, I wanted to do it her way. Expecting her to greet me with a smile.

But there was no response even after ringing the bell continuously.

Was she sleeping? Was she in the washroom?

I tried to call Liana but my phone kept ringing and ringing, over and over again, without an answer.

I leapt over the fence and came easily inside.

As I searched the house , my worry turned into panic.

Liana was not there. Not anywhere in the house.

I frantically searched the house again, calling out her name, but there was no response. I checked every room, every closet, every corner, but she was nowhere to be found. The darkness of the night only added to my anxiety, and I started to feel desperate.

I started thinking about all the terrible human things that could have happened to her. Maybe she had been in a car accident, or had gotten lost somewhere. The possibilities seemed endless, and my mind couldn’t stop racing.

It had skipped my mind but yes, Liana’s car was also missing, when I watched outside through the glass.

I decided to go outside and look for them. I searched the streets, the park, the shops, but there was no sign of them. I asked people if they had seen them, but no one had. As time went by, my panic turned into desperation.

I returned home again, feeling defeated and exhausted. I sat on the couch, trying to calm myself down, but my mind wouldn’t stop racing. I imagined all sorts of terrible scenarios.

And then I decided that I’ve had enough and soared high up in the dark sky, in my dragon form. I didn’t care about their radars or satellites picking up any unusual activity. I didn’t care if our centuries old secret was going to come in front of the world. All I wanted was Liana, safe and sound.

” Oh, my goodness! Dragon Lord? Sir Draco? is that you? ”

I landed with a bang on top of Mystic Joe’s house.

He popped out of the window like a kitty cat and meowed aloud in amazement .

I descended on his front porch in my human form and he was like rolling over his belly in literal excitement at having seen my dragon form.

” My life is complete. I found my salvation. The Dragon Lord in his true form. It’s beyond amazing! ”

His pupil dilated as I grabbed him by his collar and pulled him close to me.

” I don’t have time for this. Where is Liana? I can’t find her at her place? And I am having a bad feeling about this. It’s almost midnight… Where can she be at? ”

I was fuming fire and could char him with just my breath.

He pulled out his phone and was about to dial Liana’s number, I presumed. I literally tossed it over as it fell and crashed , face down on his wall.

” Do you think I came here without calling her again and again? ”

I glared at him as he looked at me puzzled.

” No! I wasn’t trying to call her. I was going to call the IAM. She was supposed to start her internship there right? Hospitals often keep their staff back if they face any emergency or shortage under particular circumstances. It’s very common practise here… ” he kind of giggled, ” We make our medical professional over worked whenever necessary or desired, and it’s difficult to answer calls during working hours there. So I was going to call their front desk, ” then he turned with a sorry face towards his broken phone, ” anyways… since that is out of question, I guess we might have to head over there in my car… ”

Then he turned towards me with a mischievous grin on his face, ” Or you know we have another option if you want us to get there faster. ”

He got a smack on his head for that proposal. Did he really just ask me if he could ride me or not? The audacity. This human did take me for granted. Then on second thought, it might have been me to took him for granted all the the while.

We hurried out of his gates and he pressed the accelerator.

In no time we were driving through the almost deserted road, heading right towards the building of the place where Liana had gone for work.

The nearer I got the thicker the air felt.

That was different.

The air in the human world never got that thick. This thickness was very common in our dragon world though.

It was caused by the residue left behind by dragon magic, which we used in our day to day work.

I got my head out of his window and stuck my tongue out to taste the flavour of the air to check it’s consistency.

Next, I was yeeting the door of the car open while it still was running towards the IAM gate.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
