The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair novel Chapter 47

"News spreads fast. Isn't it going to be public knowledge that I'm the holder soon?" I asked.

"We're going to announce it at the full moon ball. My father will be there." Now I had more to worry about.

I wasn't even sure if I was invited but it was obvious now. "Are you ever going to let anyone know I'm half human?"

We got up. "It's no one's business Aqua. Lynn would be even more mad if she found out my affair was with a human. Don't even tell Cade or Sadia. You'll shift soon. The king and queen don't even want people knowing you were raised in the human realm. They definitely wouldn't want people knowing your half human. I don't have a problem with it, but I don't want anyone using it against you."

I sort of understood the necessity of keeping it a secret now, but I hope I wouldn't have too for long. "Will you teach me how to fly?"

Konn chuckled. "Of course, I will." He shifted into his dragon form and I climbed on top. I called Calvin and asked him to meet me in the city.

Konn overheard me and landed where I planned to meet Calvin. He was in his human form. "The suns going down, you should get back before it gets too late." He patted my head. "I'll see you tomorrow."

"Okay Dad." It felt right to call him that for the first time.

He smiled as he walked off.

I sat down on a bench until Calvin showed up. "I'm glad you called." He sat down. "Couldn't wait for the ball?"

Maybe it wasn't the best idea to meet with him after breaking things off with Lexus. "Something like that." I chuckled nervously. "Have you ever been in love?"

He rubbed the back of his head. "Not exactly, no. What about you?"

I sighed. "Yeah, I think so. It was kind of lonely, I guess. But that's because I was never in a relationship with them."

"Are you heartbroken now because of it?" He asked.

"Kind of." I sighed. "Well yeah but it hasn't all hit me yet... I'm sorry if it's weird dumping all of this on you."

"Don't worry about it, if you needed someone to talk to about it, I'm glad you called me." He put his hand on my knee. "Whatever I can do I will."

That's what I needed to hear. I moved his hand and stood up. "Let's go for a walk."

He stood up. "That sounds good."

We started walking and Calvin pointed a lot of things out to me that I hadn't seen before. "Can you tell me anything about Diana?" I asked.

Calvin smiled. "She was the most involved out of all the gods and goddesses, she really took care of us. She would always take risks and it only brought people closer together." His smile faded. "When the moon goddess took away mates and stopped speaking with mediators like shrine maidens and holders, everyone felt like she abandoned us. I think us werewolves have more faith that she'll come back than dragon shifters."

"Good, I have her number, I don't really want to share the details." I didn't want to say anything Konn didn't want Cade to know. "I'll see you at the ball, okay?" I still felt horrible.

"You don't seem good but fine." He let me walk off.

I was surprised to see Sadia sitting alone in one of the open lounges. "Why're you sitting here alone?"

Sadia looked up at me. "Oh, Lexus has been so busy today, but I felt weird being at the pack house, so I came here. Are you okay?"

"Not really... I just got some hard advice from my Mom."

"You met your mom?" She stood up.

I nodded. "It was amazing, but I also felt judged and pressure."

"If I met my mom and came back feeling that way I'd explode. Well, if my mom weren't dead which sucks even more." She grabbed my hand. "Let's go to your room, you can tell me everything since I still don't really know what this is about. I know when I rant, I feel much better."

I brought Sadia to my room, but I didn't rant. I couldn't rant to her about how I couldn't continue seeing her boyfriend. Instead, we sat on the sofa and she held me while I cried. I know it was weak. I couldn't help but cry because I felt like I was losing my person. I was losing the one chosen for me. It was the end.
