What Your Love Felt Like-The Dragon Saga

” She called me what? ”

I was in the middle of a heated conversation with an old woman. That Mystic Joe was my comrade in that mission.

I was almost on the verge of winning the argument about Liana and my relationship status when the nurse came running and spoilt everything in a second.

That old woman was insisting that Liana and I were a married couple. She said she could ‘ see things’ and was never mistaken. She was asking me to reconcile with her, ask for her forgiveness. I was showing him how far from the truth she was when the nurse came yelling on top of her voice that,

” Patient Liana is calling for her husband Draco, full name Drake Drakon. Please come with us at once. ”

I had no idea what was more absurd, Liana calling me her husband, or her coming around as fast or her calling me by that stupid name that weird Mystic Joe had scribbled for me on some paper.

The old woman gave me that, ” I told you so. I win” kind of dirty look as the nurse literally dragged me back inside.

” I think from your body language and your behavior that you guys might have been through some crazy couple fights. But let me brief you a little about your wife’s condition before you enter from here.

There was glass window on a steel door. I could see Liana lying on the bed inside. Her eyes were closed. Perhaps from exhaustion.

” Your wife has gone through a lot of emotional, internal turmoil. I don’t know what difference you guys might be having but it will be best to put them aside and just listen to her and do her bidding till she fully recovers. Any tiny amout of shock or distress, could cause her to complete loose herself. She might already be suffering from minor memory damage. You look like a good man, now you might try being a loving husband as well. ”

With that tiny speech she opened the door as Liana opened her eyes and smiled at me.

It melted my heart.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

I ran to embrace her, nullifying in front of everyone, my own claim that we were not at all married.

I could hear Liana smile broaden as she held me tighter.

” I did not expect you would come around so fast. I am so glad that you did. ”

I planted a kiss right at the back of her shoulder.

She moved as it tingled her senses.

” Stop it Draco. Everyone is watching. Where did you leave Damian? Is he with mother? Ahhh! He must have been so scared to see mother in such a state. My poor baby. I can’t wait to see him. ”

Liana was always a mother to Damian but she never asserted that in my presence. It felt surreal. It felt good.

” I did not bring Damian to this world Liana. He is still at the palace. ”

” You mean you did not want to bring him to the hospital so you left him at our house? Aha! Makes sense. Who is staying with him? I hope you did not leave him all alone? ”

She asked with weird words.

” Of course I did not leave him alone. He has all his care givers with him. He is the Prince after all. You don’t need to worry about that Liana. He is going well. May be just missing you a little. ”

To be honest, that was my perspective that I just portrayed. I was the one doing the missing. It was such a blessing that Lucian abandoned his post on this mission. I was dying from the inside to just check on her and see if she was doing alright.

Now that she seemed fine, may be I could go back again to my kingdom for some time.

I put her carefully down. Perhaps it was better for her to stay amongst the humans for her own safety. I walked out after tucking her off to sleep.

” Hey, You. Come over here! ”

I called that Mystic Joe, who was sitting in the corner.

I appointed him guardian over Liana and felt a few Dragon gems with him. I knew they were valuable in the human world and would bare the expenses of Liana’s treatment.

” I will be coming back frequently. You better keep briefing me with all her updates daily. And yes, in the dragon world, we do not accept any service free of cost. Take half of whatever you get from selling those jems. Think of it as being employed by the Dragon King himself. ”

The fellow looked weirder than he already was a she somersaulted in excitement.

I felt the hospital premises before darting back towards my palace.

I went straight to Master’s chamber to brief him up about the lastest development.

He welcomed me with a drink as we sat down on his couch like old time.

He listened to each and every details of what had happened without interrupting even for a second.

He then fell silent and was stroking his chin.

That was the look of thinking.

” It might not seem like it, but it appears that there might have been a significant, irreversible loss in her memory. Only by discarding that baggage could she come around so fast. I mean it’s still strange that she had this knowledge, because only the ones very thorough with Dragon Medicine, know this secret. Anyways, let’s wait and see. ”

Then he poured me some more drink and added,

” You did great by deciding to leave her amongst her own people. ”

Just then there was heavy banging on the Master’s entrance door.

That was highly inappropriate.

It would mean only two thing. Either someone had a death wish or there was a severe emergency.

He rushed to answer the call.

It was one of the care givers for Damian. She was out of breath.

I ran to see what had happened.

” Master… M.. Master…. our Prince has been refusing to eat since the morning. He just collapsed from exhaustion. ”

With that, she passed out as well.
