Mistress Of Enchanting Dragon

After all, she was a princess in the end and she was spoiled by her father and brother since childhood. She has the right to choose everything for herself and king Evan has given her full freedom. The only time she used to give in was in front of her mother, Queen Doris and that was because Silja didn't want her mother to create more distance between them.

So how could she take anyone's dominance now, even though she didn't want to show, dissatisfaction spread on her face unknowingly.

Donovan was quick to notice the changes on her face and started to think about ways to make her agree.

Well, he possibly couldn't make his future wife angry after all.

"Look at me," he turned her around, but when Silja didn't give him he stood up and stood in front of her.

"It was already clear from the start that the marriage ceremony will be held soon after the competition ends. And you are aware of it, don't you? And I want to marry you now, because I know if we wait any longer I'm afraid something bad will happen to me," Donovan said.

"What will happen to you?" Silja tilted her head.

"I'm afraid that someone will snatch away my beautiful would-be-wife," Donovan made a pitiful face as he said that.

Well, he has to become narcissistic and shameless if he wants her.

Silja was speechless again. 

This glib tongue... She couldn't help but agree that no one can beat Donovan in sweet-talking.

Well from where did he learn these skills? 

Definitely from his previous lovers.

After all, the prince of the North never lacked a woman.

"Kruel is here and if I cancel our marriage at the last moment people might think that we did it because we are afraid of Kruel. We can't take any risk and it will also be hard to explain why the marriage is being postponed," Donovan replied and Silja kept quiet. Seeing that she wasn't objecting anymore he didn't say anything and took it as her agreement.

He then climbed up the bed from the other side and lay down on the bed. 

"What are you doing?" When Silja saw him pulling the blanket over she couldn't help but ask.

"I'm tired so I need rest," Donovan said before he pulled her in. Silja fell on his chest and Donovan pressed her with his hands.

"You should go back to your chamber," Silja protested.

"Too troublesome," and with that, he closed his eyes.

Soon he fell into a deep sleep just like that. Silja was still enveloped in his tight embrace.

She sighed speechlessly and resigned to her fate.

She put her head on his chest and adjusted herself a bit before she also fell asleep.

Hearing her long breaths a smile spread on Donovan's lips.

The morning arrived and the sun rose high in the sky.

While the north was sleeping peacefully and joyfully in an atmosphere of celebration lord Joshua had spent his whole night beside his sister's bed.

Healers have checked her body and it was found that different types of witch potions have been used on her to torture her. There were countless wounds on her body telling the story of how much pain she has gone through in past days. Since she lost consciousness when she arrived Olivia had become conscious only and during that time she hardly managed to shift her form and again slipped into a deep coma.

Even though they had fed her witch's blood there was no notable change in her healing. 

Joshua couldn't help but think that might have been gone through there that even witch blood was not working on her.

Joshua was pacing back and forth in worry. He didn't know what exactly happened there that Olivia ended up in a situation like this while Princess Silja was chosen by Donovan.

The results were shocking not for him but for everyone in the North.

The girl whom everyone was belittling ended up becoming a potential future queen.

Lord Joshua gritted his teeth in annoyance. 

It will be still better if Olivia hasn't managed to win the competition and win Donovan's heart but from what he heard from Donovan it looks like she has offended Donovan terribly.

And that was very bad. He didn't know why but Joshua had always felt Donovan's hostility towards him and with the escalation of this matter, everything became messier.

It has taken him lots of time and effort to make his position a bit stable but with just one mistake of Olivia, everything went back to zero. 

Olivia was always a bit impatient about a few things but she was still very smart, if not for her advice and support he wouldn't have been able to make that small piece of barren land so fertile.

But Donovan's words are very blunt too. Donovan was always hard to please and now he has to make double efforts.

'Nah, he won't let everything drain just like that. He has to do something,' Lord Joshua made up his mind. 

Today was the second day of the competition and there was going to be a small competition at night. Everyone will again gather and a few of them who are interested in fights will fight friendly matches and enjoy themselves.

And Joshua has a feeling that this time of the match will be very interesting.

He smiled at himself and then instructed people who were in charge of taking care of Olivia and left.

By the time Silja woke up, it was already noon. The sun has already reached up high in the sky. She opened her eyes and then looked around. But she didn't find Donovan there. She sighed thinking that he might have left long ago. Sensing that she was awake, Mira entered the room and prepared Silja for a bath.

It has been days since she has taken a good warm bath so Silja ended up enjoying it for a long time.

"My lady, Queen Abrielle and princess Genevieve are waiting for you outside," when after a long time Silja didn't show any sign of coming out Mira entered the room and informed her.

Silja, who was making bubbles in soap water, happily froze in her place.

She whipped her head in Mira's direction, " When did they arrive?" 

"Few moments after you enter the bath," Mira replied calmly. Silja narrowed her eyes.

"Then why didn't you inform me?" She hastily stood up and walked out of the tub.

Another maid who was helping her walked forward to wash her body with clean water.

"I didn't know you would take this much time," Mira said with the same expression on her face.

Silja understood what was going on but she restrained herself from scolding Mira in front of other maids.

"Go prepare my clothes," she ordered in a bit of an angry voice.

Actually, Mira was very upset when she heard that Silja had agreed to marry the dragon prince. She tried to talk her out of it but Silja was sure of her decision.

So Silja went to talk to Brandon. Since he says she came here she was on house arrest so she didn't know that prince Benjamin was in the North too.

Plus King Zachary has also kept news of Prince Benjamin's arrival under wraps.

So she only found out today that prince Benjamin has actually arrived here to save his sister. Back then when they left Atlanea, princess Silja and king Evan hid everything from prince Benjamin and Silja left to the north without his knowledge.

But now prince Benjamin actually came to save his sister. Mira was touched and she asked Brandon to take her to meet the prince.

"How can we let her Marry that beast, your highness," Mira pleaded as soon as she met Benjamin.

Brandon has brought her to the tower without anyone's notice.

"We won't let her," Benjamin replied. He knew how Mira and Silja were close to each other. The maid was loyal and he could trust her. 

"She has made her decision, she won't change it no matter how much we try," Benjamin shook his head in disappointment.

"Then what should we do?" Mira instantly got worried. When she heard that prince Benjamin was here she found hope and thought that finally there was hope. Prince Benjamin will never allow her princess to marry a dragon. But it looks like even he can't stop her from marrying that prince.

Mira's face instantly fell and worry marred her face.

"But I do have some other plans," Benjamin's next word shocked her. Mira whipped her head up and looked at him in confusion.

"And I will need your help to fulfil that plan," Benjamin told her.

"If you can stop my lady from making this mistake, then I can help you to do anything," Mira said firmly. Benjamin smiled seeing her determination.

"Then listen carefully….."

So after talking to him, Mira didn't find it necessary for Silja to please the Queen. 

So she let them wait out and didn't inform Silja about their arrival.

It will be best if they get offended and break this marriage themselves.
