It was late at night when Donovan returned back to the castle. His mood was sour.
"Even though we didn't find much information. We got the man," Gar said and adjusted the man on his shoulder.
Yes, they brought the man back with them.
And now the interrogation will continue in a more specific way in the underground dungeon of the Royal castle.
Gar tried to speak more but Donovan didn't comment on anything. Gar could sense his foul mood and thus he decided to take leave as soon as possible.
"So I'm leaving. I'll settle him first and then see you soon in the morning," Gar finished his sentence, and as soon as Don nodded Gar started to walk away.
It was late in the night but Don was in no mood to sleep. He thought about going out to the tavern but then he decided otherwise. After the attack from Dinnar, he has thought that it will be peaceful for quite some time but it looks like that wasn't the case.
With all the upcoming events that his father has planned with so much enthusiasm, it will be harder to manage the security.
Lots of thoughts were running in his head as he decided to take a look around the castle to check that everything was okay.
"Your highness…."
"Your highness…" all the guards were on duty and Don hummed in satisfaction.
He was near the guest-chamber when he suddenly picked up the refreshing scent, very different and soothing.
His footsteps instantly stopped.
He took a deep breath and his lungs were immediately filled with the fresh scent.
Donovan looked around to find the person to whom this scent belonged but he couldn't see anyone.
It was near morning and it was a little windy. It was hard to tell from where the scent was coming from.
'I'm here to marry your prince. If you kill me, who's gonna marry him? And if he didn't marry then you won't be able to get a prince for the next generation right,'
The words echoed in his head as he
remembered what happened that day. An amusing smile spread on his lips without his knowledge as he recognized to whom this scent belongs to.
*Past recap*
After getting the news he was quick to reach the barracks. The situation was mostly under control as there's so many other soldiers were present to handle the rogue dragons.
So Don decided to go after the ones who have flown out in open.
He followed the trail of destruction and soon reached the place where a big commotion was going on. The area was quite far from the city but for him, it didn't take him long to reach there given his speed.
There were at least seven dragons and there was not much help to control them. Few of their soldiers were already laying on the ground, some dead while some injured.
"Roarrr…" his pows landed on the ground and a bone-chilling roar shook the area. Two Dragons who were fighting not far away stopped still looking at the gigantic black dragon glaring at them. His aura was so dark that forced them to obey. Henry bowed his head and bent his knees and the other dragon took a few steps back.
But he has no good luck to getaway. Don was seriously angry seeing how his people were fighting each other. He was quick to run towards one of the rogues and in just a few steps the other dragon was in his grasp, unable to break free.
Black dragon bore his eyes on the other one's face. Those scary red orbs were able to send him to hell and then again pulled back. Donovan was very angry but he could feel that something was wrong with these soldiers so he tried to keep his temper in check. Don raised one of his claws and with loud thus his hand collided with the soldier's head.
Another thud was heard as the dragon fell on the ground, unconscious. Soon one after another he knocked most of them. Using his extraordinary hearing ability and detecting their strength he reached the small part of the forest.
People were running here and there but what shocked him was he saw few human soldiers there.
As long as he knew there were no human soldiers in the Northcrest. It was ordered that no humans will be taken in as soldiers.
So how come?
But he had no time for that some people were waiting to be saved and some asking for beatings.
He was dealing with them one by one but suddenly his concentration broke. With a small breeze entered a unique scent in his nostrils. In mids of the smell of burning trees and blood, he smelt a marine fresh scent, peaceful and soft.
His dark red eyes became darker as he felt the sweet scent of the ocean wrafting in the air.
"Bammm." He knocked one another and then found himself getting attracted in the other direction from where the scent was coming.
In just a few strides he walked near and a smooth and soft voice started to spread in his ears.
'...won't hurt you." The voice started to clear as he inched closer.
'I'm here to marry your prince. If you kill me, who's gonna marry him? And if he didn't marry then you won't be able to get a prince for the next generation right,'
The first thing he saw was Theo in his dragon form, ready to spitfire.
'Be a good boy okay. Good boys don't kill their friends.'
And when Don looked down at the source of the words he saw a red-haired girl, pinned down under the large branch of the tree.
Her big eyes were glistening due to unshaded tears.
"A human," Don murmured in his head.
Her body was stuck and she was unable to move, laying just in front of the dragon's mouth, open and ready to engulf her in the flames.
But the girl looked still calm, her forehead was creased but hazel eyes were as calm as water. And to Don's surprise, Theo actually calmed down. He closed his mouth and looked at the creature in front of him, observing her with kin eyes.
It was like a trance for a second until one of the other deranged dragons passed by and agitated Theo.
The girl's eyes widened comically as she sensed what was gonna happen next.
But before Theo could harm her Donovan came between them.
He pushed Theo away and looked down on the girl. In his curiosity, he forgot how close he was to her. His large heavy head was just a little away from her. Flaming red eyes looking deeply at Calm hazel one.
It was night but he had no problem seeing anything. He observed how her eyes widened from shock or maybe fear. Her eyeballs moved to look at his appearance which was as black as night, Camouflaging in dark nights.
But soon the trance broke as he noticed Theo charging towards them. He took a last look at her and then went ahead to deal with them.
By the time he was done and came to check she was already taken away by others.

At present, Donovan realized that she might be one of the princesses who came to attend his bridal selection. But how?
she was clearly a human and they had no close relationship with the human kingdom to invite the princess to the ceremony.
Thinking about the possibility he started to move where the guest chambers were located.
The night was dark and no one saw him entering the premises. It wouldn't have been a problem if anyone would have seen him, who could possibly stop the tyranny prince.
He leaped from the wall and entered the small garden of this part.
One. Don generally doesn't like taking regular paths and gates.
Second. Yes, the castle is very big enough to accommodate many small gardens and yards. Back to the story.
As soon as he entered the scent became stronger and his eye instantly noticed a small figure walking near the flower bushes. As soon as his eyes fell on her she whipped her head in his direction, looking with her captivating Hazle eyes.
