Mistress Of Enchanting Dragon

"And? What did he say to you?" Silja questioned calmly. She could already guess that. There was no way that simple-minded Mira could have the guts to make her upset.

Mira was aggressive when it came to Silja's protection but throughout the years she has never done anything out of Silja's order.

So how could she now find the guts to go against her lady's words? Unless she met her brother and Benjamin told her something. Just thinking about it made Silja's blood boil. Silja felt a surge of anger bubbling in her heart, for some reason she felt herself losing control.

When Mira faced Silja's interrogation she couldn't help but feel guilty. Silja had told her last night that she was going to marry Donovan and it was good for everyone but still Mira just couldn't take it when she thought about how fierce and bloodthirsty dragons were.

For her Silja deserved every best single thing in the world including husband and cruel dragon prince was nowhere to be perfect in her eyes.

"I'm sorry for not notifying you in the morning about the arrival of the queen, my lady. I was wrong," Mira fell down on her knees as she said that. Her head hung low and there was clearly guilt in her voice as she tried to turn the conversation around. She has indeed made plans with prince Benjamin but she wasn't going to tell that to Silja. It will ruin the relationship of siblings and their escape plan too.

"I'm not asking about that, we will discuss it later. For now, to answer the questions I asked," Silja's voice was becoming colder and colder. Mira who was on the ground shuddered as she heard Silja using her authoritative voice on her for the first time.

Mira subconsciously looked up and she froze on the place as she saw Silja eyes shining with anger.

Silja's face was void of any emotions but she was emitting a dangerous aura. Mira felt as if her whole being was enveloped by darkness at that moment.

"My lady…" Mira tried to speak but her voice came out very slow.

She could feel that something wasn't right with Silja. The fear started to crawl its way into Mira's heart just by looking at Silja's demeanour.

"Calm down my lady, I'll tell you everything," Mira hastily said.

"Speak," Silja roared. Mira, who was trying to understand what was going on, jumped in fear.

She didn't know if it was just her imagination or she could actually feel like Silja was not just angry but it was more like someone has possessed her.

Her large doe eyes turned a shade darker while her whole face was stern.

For a second Mira thought as if she was looking at someone else and not Silja.

In fear, she told everyone that Benjamin had told her, every word and sentence.

Silja's chest heaved up and down as she heard that. With every word, she understood her anger rose and her eyes started to flicker in the shade of dark.

While Mira was frightened by oddly behaving Silja, both of them failed to notice a dark shadow lurking in the dark. Its presence was darker as the pair of eyes stared at the girl who was sitting on the chair, unaware of the shadow's existence.

"I have told you everything, my lady please calm down," Mira's eyes turned red and her face was smeared with tears.

She was frightened to the core by Silja's behaviour. Her aura was so strong that she wanted to run away from there and ask someone for help.

But how could she, whom she can ask?

Deep down Mira has an inkling that it has something to do with previous incidents.

But wasn't Silja fine all this time? What happened suddenly now.

Till now everything was still under control but it seemed like Silja's condition was worsening day by day.

When Mira saw Silja was about to go on a rampage from the anger she crawled towards Silja and hugged her tightly.

She held Silja's legs and begged for mercy.

"I know, I was wrong. Punish me however you want but please calm down first," Mira pleaded between her sobs. She didn't dare to look up at Silja and buried her face in Silja's lap.

Silja was in so much anger that she held Mira's arms trying to pull her away from her but Mira stubbornly held on to Silja.

Silja extruded force and her fingers dug in Mira's shoulders.

A slow cry left Mira's lips from pain and an instantly metallic smell of blood spread in the room.

As Silja heard Mira's soft sobs and her trembling body her eyes flickered.

On the other side of the room, the dark shadows disappeared in the darkness without being noticed.

And just as if someone has pulled her out of her trance Silja let go of Mira.

Silja's eyes lost their focus for a second before she came to her senses and looked down.

Her eyes widened as she saw her fingers stained in blood while Mira's trembling shoulder. Her dress was stained with blood on her shoulders.

"Mira…" Silja breathed her name in horror. But Mira was still clinging to her legs.

"It was my fault, you can punish me however you want," the girl kept crying out.

Silja was horror-struck seeing the scene in front of her eyes. She remembered everything that had happened just now and what she did, but everything felt foreign and as if she wasn't herself.

Her eyes widened and she felt her head hurting like crazy.

Silja held her head and cried out in pain, as a sharp pain shot for a moment and passed.

Mira who finally sensed something different lifted her head.

"Milady?" Mira instantly let Silja go.

"I did this to you?" Silja's eyes turned red from pain.

Mira was still a bit afraid of Silja as she didn't dare to speak anything for a moment.

Silja was quick to sense her fear.
