Eternal love of the red dragon

"No need to cry," Lilith said as she raised off of him then wiped his tears and he kept on staring at the girl then smiled when he saw her mother's reflection on her. 

"You really are the print of your mother, I am glad I lived to see this day," he said and she frowned then he patted her on the head and she sighed. 

"Can you continue please?" she asked and he smiled. 

'Sure" he responded. 

"After finding out she was pregnant, a few days after my parents made a kingdom-wide announcement of our marriage, everyone was really happy though I was also worried about what my brother was up to, I was worried he might cross his limit and so was your mother because he was obsessed with her". 

"A few days passed and we got married, everything was going fine and then we were visited by Cosmo's mother for she had gotten a prophecy by then, your mother was eight months pregnant, she was afraid for you and so was I, Cosmo's mother was powerful, back then Cosmo was a few years old, she was already soring in the air". 

"Cosmo's mother called her Red, her mother's name was Clarissa, she was a beauty, her mother came into our room one night, I was happy to see her, we all knew her powerful the red dragon was but when she told us the prophecy about what's going happen once Lilith was born your mother's pressure went up but Clarissa kept her calm". 

'The prophecy said that, by dark, by light, the phoenix is born before light but at the darkest hour, the future ahead hold a cruel path, one in which the child has to choose between death and life, friends and love, darkness and light, what no man knows that shall behold the true power lies within the heart". 

"The prophecy was complicated to understand so Clarissa made it simple when you will be born there will be a storm that night in which we have to make a choice one which will keep you alive in the future and I will not be by your side if I want you and your mother to survive". 

"Due to that your mother was stressed out and after Clarissa was worried she told us that our daughter's destiny is connected to her children's destiny and she left, after that we never saw her again, a month pass and the time for the delivery arrived, it was a stormy night indeed when you were born, after you came into the world the lighting flashed and struck the castle". 

"Your mother took you into her arms and played with you a little, while she was playing with you, your body started glowing and so did your eyes, we became sure that you are the phoenix, then I heard a scream and I rushed out of the door and so did your mother, when we arrived in the throne room where the scream came from I saw my parents laying dead on the floor before me and before them stood my brother with their blood on his sword". 

"I asked him why he killed them but the only thing he looked at was you, he had become dark and heartless, the only thing he said was that he will take what is mine, he wanted to conquer the world, I told him that is never going to happen no matter what". 

"He laughed at me and my wife held onto my hand, she knew what the prophecy meant, so she asked me to cast a spell on her in which if we were to lose and he tried to make her his he will start burning or she will die, she didn't give me a choice and I cast the spell on her in which he could not sleep with her even if I die". 

'He attacked me after I did that and I formed a barrier around you and your mom, he tried to break it as we ought but I was being beaten up really bad due to how stronger he had gotten, I feared for you tow so I teleported you two outside of your castle and asked your mother to run and so she did but he went after them after passing the sword through my heart". 

'Your mother screamed and begged him after he attacked her and she fell with you in her arms, he grabbed onto you and was going to kill you but then released the power he held so after I tried to held he ripped the sword out of my heart causing me to collapse before your mom, I watched her as she cried and scream my name, I died and he took her with him along with you, days passed and he was made the new king while I laid there dead, he announced her his wife despite knowing she could never be his". 

'He toom everything that was mine and due to fear of him the people stayed quiet, some of them knew you were not his daughter but could not say anything even your mother's sister, your aunt Claire lived in fear, she helped took care of you, I came back alive because I was healed by Cosmo's mother, she came back and helped me, after I was healed I met your mother secretly, she was happy to see me alive but she also told me to stay away even if you had to believe that man was your dad". 

"I disagreed with her at first but you were helpless as a child, in order to protect you I remained dead and she stayed his wife until now," he said and the others frowned. 

'He took everything from you, your name, your respect, your family, your honor, your crown, your kingdom" she replied and his eyes widened when Lilith's body started glowing red as tears ran down her cheeks and she cried then Cosmo sighed.
