Mistress Of Enchanting Dragon

"I never knew that out of all the people you will care about what others think," he said. There was sarcasm in his voice but his eyes were still locked on her like she was the only thing in the world.

"Huh.. how much do you know me anyway?" She scoffed and turned her face away.

But he was right, she doesn't care much what others think of her but that also doesn't mean that she was okay with how they were sitting.

Or maybe she was…?

Don leaned in and buried his face near her neck as he spoke.

"I may not know other things but I know that you like this, sitting here with me, in my arms," his hand on her waist tightened as he pulled her closer and with another hand, he intertwined his fingers with her.

He inhaled near her neck and his lungs instantly filled with her intoxicating marine fresh scent.

Just like a cool breeze of the ocean, calming down his raging fire, yet fanning it in special directions.

"I don't…." Silja took a sharp breath as he ran the tip of his nose at the length of her neck.

"Are you sure?" He said in his deep magmatic voice.

He pressed his lips slowly on her neck and Silja shivered. She opened her eyes and snapped and pushed Don away. But he didn't let her go and kept her on his lap.

"What are you doing?" Silja asked as she struggled to keep her thoughts straight.

"Alright calm down," Don said and stopped her from moving.

"You… let me go first," Silja struggled.

"Don't move, you are tempting me," he said in a breathy voice.

Silja froze in her place.

He took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

Since he got a bit of taste, he wanted more but he couldn't and the things which are hard to get tempt you more.

Don took long breaths to calm down but those breaths were only filled with her scent and made him almost lose control.

"Aren't you hungry?" He asked after a long time to calm down a bit.

"Can we talk normally?" Silja asked. He has held her tightly in his arm that she couldn't even move. And sitting in a man's lap like that... Silja was too flustered and embarrassed.

"We are talking normally," he didn't let her go even a bit.

Silja wanted to scold him but she couldn't bring herself to. She just realised how powerful he was. Just a little more force and he could just crush her like an ant.

"I mean if I can sit there," she said in a pleading voice. Silja didn't know why but she was being obedient to him. This was totally the opposite of how she was.

Well, beauty is totally dangerous.

Her eyebrows wiggled as she silently pleaded to let her go from his evil claws.

Don looked at the woman and then with a sigh put her down on the chair beside him. But he never let go of her hand and kept them intertwined. Silja didn't know why this man had turned clingy but as she was not in his embrace she felt cold again and her body instinctively shivered.

Don then took the plate and saw that all the food had gone cold.

"Why weren't you eating just now?" He lifted his eyebrows.

"I didn't feel hungry," Silja replied. As the bitter memories of earlier rushed through her head again.

"There are many things that make our hearts unsettled sometimes, but that doesn't mean that you should starve yourself," Don said.

Silja looked at him in surprise. How did he know that her heart was unsettled?

"Who said that I'm upset?" Silja asked.

She turned her head away trying not to look in his direction.

"Well, I don't need anyone to tell me I can sense that, I can read it on your face clearly, " Don said with a smile. The way he looked at her had something so strong in it that Silja felt her heart skip a beat. So she turned her head away immediately.

"So what happened?" He asked. But Silja didn't react. More like her voice was stolen by him.

"Well, you can choose not to tell me," Don sighed.

"But there is no one else with whom you can share this right now...so…," he lifted his eyebrows and said. Slowly encouraging her to open up.

Silja pursed her lips as she heard what he said.

He was right. There was no one with her now with whom she can share.

" Even if I tell you, what can you do about it?" She sighed and turned around, a bit annoyed. This man was very sharp and smart, always pressing her wrong buttons.

"Well well I may not be able to do anything or maybe I can do something. But I'm sure that you will surely feel less burdened if you share things with me," Don said.

Silja stared at him.

And Don never turned his eyes away from her, waiting patiently for her to speak.

"Do you know there is a slave market in the city?" Finally, after staring enough she opened her mouth.

"I do," he nodded.

"Don't you think it's cruel to treat people as animals and sell them in the middle of the market?" She asked, looking in the distance at the dark sky.

"It is," he agreed again.

"Then why does no one do anything about it?" Silja asked, turning towards him.

"For that, you need to understand the roots of the problem," Don said.

"Slavery is in the blood of those who are born weak in this land and to dominate them is on the one who is powerful," Don said and silja furrowed her brows.

"What do you mean?"

"How can slavery in be in blood? Freedom is everyone's birthright," Silja said.

"You are right but when you are weak and afraid to raise your voice you automatically choose the other options which are to endure pain and slavery," he replied.

"It's not a thing which has happened in one or two days. It is a change which has turned reality over the centuries now, and has grown deep roots in the society," he added.

"That's because no one cares about those people, so no one takes any action for their benefit," Silja said with a bitter smile on her lips. Why would any Dragon want to do anything when their own kind is flourishing on the blood of other people.

"Huh, this is the great Northern Kingdom they praise so much," she scoffed.

"What will you do if you are in power?" He asked, lifting an eyebrow. Not minding the fact that she was saying bad things about his country or his people.

"I would ban slavery and destroy that market where they sell people like they were selling animals, I would punish all the people who try to take away other people's freedom," she said with so much vigour.

A smile spread on Don's lips and as he saw her courage it broadened further.

Silja, who saw him smiling so much, twisted her lips.

"What are you laughing about?" She glared at him.

"I'm not laughing. I'm just admiring my little brave doll," he said with a smile and squeezed her hand.

Silja looked at him with wide eyes.

His….. little brave doll?

She looked at him like she wanted to kill him just there and then.

"Punishing them and banning slavery can turn all the riches against the king and if that happened the crown will fall and the evil will rise and flourish higher to the crown," He then said.

"When you want to cut the giant tree you can just start cutting it from the roots. First, you have to remove some heavy branches so cutting roots can be easy later," he added. His face was calm and his voice stable.

Silja heard his words and she pondered on it. What he said made sense. Even though the Regalhelm family ruled the north they needed the support of many other noble families to stay in position and this was a pyramid. If they started removing all from the down it will result in their own downfall.

Silja looked at him with awe in her eyes as if she had seen a ray of hope.

"Haha don't look at me with those eyes my dear princess, it enchants me more," he heartily laughed as he said and made Silja go tomato again.

Silja was all flustered and she tried to take her hand away from his grip but he didn't let go.

"You aren't behaving decently," Silja said aggrievedly like a small pitiful rabbit in the claws of a big black dragon.

"Guess what, I never behave in decent ways," he said and then tugged her arm with force and pulled her towards him again in his arms.
