What Your Love Felt Like-The Dragon Saga

” So, you are telling me that I can bring Liana back if I voluntarily to that part of the Netherworld, where human souls are? And I will also be able to get out of that place in one piece if I offer the FerryMan, this Pearl in exchange? ”

Nemesis nodded as fast as he could to answer Draco’s question.

Lucian knew that Draco would be easily able to see through Nemesis’s trickery if he asked Draco straight away to exchange his life. Instead , he came up with his brilliant plan. A plan that would give him two birds at one stroke.

What Nemesis told Draco was not entirely untrue. He would be able to bring Liana back if he went to the Netherworld voluntarily. But the catch was he would be going to that part where Dragons were restricted, where human souls were. Moreover, he would be taking a human soul back with him, which is a King can never do. He can never be partial. He would not only not give his own soul in exchange, but he would also go a step ahead and try to bribe the Ferry Man. All these would add up to such a great sin on Draco’s part that he himself would come under the jurisdiction of the Divine Law. He would be hunted down and penalised, which would be a public spectacle. And his Throne would also be not his anymore. In short, he would lose his position as the Dragon King. However, Liana would be back. And she would witness his humiliation, first hand. When Draco would be dishonoured, Lucian would make sure that he stays right beside Liana, to make her his own. He had promised Nemesis, that he could have the throne but deep down, he knew that, he would behead Nemesis as well and take over the Dragon Kingdom.

It was a Master Plan. A clever one no doubt.

” And what do you stand to gain in exchange? ”

Draco asked Nemesis.

” I would no longer be hunted by the Divine Law, besides, I hope it will get me into your good books and I would be given my rightful position in your kingdom. ”

Nemesis was trying hard not to make Draco suspicious.

Draco said nothing, he walked silently towards Nemesis. His right hand went up as Nemesis closed his eyes and ducked, but it landed softly over his left shoulder.

” I am really sorry for what my aunt had to face Nemesis. I always were but at that time, I had no say in that matter. I hope you understand. As for the incident with the Hounds, it was absolutely unintentional. I didn’t even know aunt was there. Neither did I know that you survived. To be honest, I never understood what made aunt give up everything for a mere human, but that was untill Liana came into my life. If I was I’m your mother’s shoe , I would also do the same . ”Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

His pats were soft but steady and Nemesis looked at him with a mixed expression.

He was there for vengeance but Draco was extending an olive branch.

His gesture left Nemesis speechless.

“I had always run after reputation and power, never realising what I was loosing in that run. I ignored my loving wife, I was absent even when my son was born, I looked down on the human girl who actually rescued my son and look at me now, I am willing to trade my entire kingdom for those same things that I had taken for granted. ”

Draco heaved a deep sigh.

” Anyway. I am choosing to trust you Nemesis. I cannot fathom the amount of hated my aunt must have had against her own family to name her only son Nemesis. I would like to give you a nice name before giving you back your rightful inheritance. I would like you to take active part in the development of our dragon world.

But now, I must hurry. I will leave a letter for Master. If you show this to him, he will let you explain where I am going. I do not want to let anybody know because I don’t want to delay bringing back my beloved. ”

Nemesis watched as Draco scribbled down some instructions on a parchment and then sealed it with the ring on his thumb.

His emotions were on over drive.

He had never had the opportunity to interact with Draco in this manner. In this new light, Draco did not seem to be the bad guy. He was not the villain , Nemesis had been chasing all his life. He was having a guilty conscience as Draco leaped out of the window and soared high up in the pale rainbow sky.
