Eternal love of the red dragon

"We are here," Val said as they entered the outer city of Lunisa and Lilith smiled. 

Lunisa was a beautiful and peaceful place with magical creatures all around them.. some people even talked to the animal and the creature would help them with their daily routines. 

Everything there was nice and made Lilith smile especially when she an animal shapeshift to help a human and the night sky was bright and glowing. 

'It's nice here" Cosmo said and Lilith smiled. 

'Had a good little nap?" Lilith asked and the girl smiled. 

'Yes I did thank you Lilith" she responded. 

"You are welcome," she said as they came to the second half of the city and a little while after they arrived at the castle and the carriage stopped then they all got out and Lilith smiled upon seeing the silver castle standing before her. 

"Stull the same huh Lilith?" Vivian asked. 

'Yeah nothing has changed: she responded as the guards came to greet them then grabbed their things and took them in. 

The yard was huge and had all shapes of different types of plants and the guards were friendly. 

'Upon walking into the castle, the first thing they saw was a fountain in the middle direct under the doom which was a glass ceiling and there were a lot of paintings on the shimmering walls. 

"His royal highness is in the throne room I will take you there then to your room," the guard said. 

"Okay" Lilith replied and they went to the throne room. 

"Your highness: the guard said as he bowed and the king was looking into some documents. 

"Lucas" Minda called out and he moved the appears away then smiled and stood up and they all bowed to each other. 

"Lilith," he said and she smiled then he hugged her tightly and her eyes widened. 

"Lucas, it's been a while" she replied then he raised up from her and smiled. 

"It's good to see you again Lilith," he said. 

"Likewise" she replied. 

"I know everyone here but who is this fine young lady?" he asked. 

'This is Cosmo" she responded and Cosmo bowed to him. 

'Your highness" she said. 

"Welcome to my humble home" he replied. 

"Honoured to be here," she said. 

"Your father sent you didn't he?" Lucas asked and Lilith frowned then he patted her on the shoulder and she looked at him. 

'Don't be too hard on yourself I know what's been happening lately" he said and she looked at him. 

"I know what's been going on for a while, I m also glad to know that you are the phoenix everyone has been waiting for," he said and she sighed. 

'I am sorry I didn't come to actually only see you" she replied and he sighed. 

"It's fine, I am glad you came though, at least I got to see you after mom died I took over everything, I did not get a chance to go on a proper vacation," he said and Lilith folded her cuffs as Lucas went and sat down on his throne. 

"You tell me why you are here?" Lucas asked as he looked at Val. 

'To claim your kingdom" Val responded and Lucas laughed. 

'And how is that going to happen?" Lucas asked. 

"Your good friend here will be the one taking it" he responded and Lucas looked at Liith as she downed her head then smiled. 

'Lilith can you please look at me?" he asked and she looked at him. 

"Do you personally want my crown?" he asked. 

"Tsk.. no I don't" she responded. 

"Now that I know and got my answer, I will not be giving up my crown and will not go down without a fight, I worked hard and earned my place on this throne but if the princess truly wanted it, I would have given it to her, for I know she will not be a bad ruler," Luca said and Lilith gasped then he winked at her and she smiled. 

'Lilith you are nothing like your father if that's what you are so worried about, you can never be like him, you have a good heart and thinks about everyone which can be your undoing at times but it's a good trait, you have many, unlike others who only have very few, I trust you and your decisions since we were kids" he said and Cosmo smiled. 

'So you are not going to give it up to her just because she does not want it for herself?" Val asked.

"Yes, exactly" Lucas responded and Lilith smiled. 

"I think we will be staying for a while then," Val said.

'I would be delighted to have you guys as my guest but Val, you try and trick and your head will be on my sword" Lucas said. 

'Lilith, stop worrying and for the time you will be here.. I hope you enjoy it and we can spend some time together like old times, oh and there is a lake at the back now in case you want to relax and have some alone time" Luca said. 

'Thank you Lucas" she replied. 

"You are welcome and you did very well Lilith, you came this far and did not become like him just because you wanted the love of a father," he said and Lilith smiled. 

'I don't think I am that different Lucas" she replied and he looked at her with his sharp blue-green eyes. 

"Let us be the judge of that sweetheart, now come on let's go have dinner I prepared a lot of nice dishes for your arrival" he replied as he walked away and they all followed him out of the throne room.

'I like him" Cosmo said and Lilith looked at her then she smiled nervously. 

'What?" Cosmo asked and the princess smiled. 

"Nothing" she responded. 

"Are you sure?" she asked. 

"Yes I am, by the way, it's nice to see that you are still yourself Cosmo" she responded

"Likewise Lilith," she said and the girls laughed as they entered the dining hall.
