Dragon Loves Me

Bratton and Katherine were stunned, they remained like a statue there without knowing how to respond. Cayden, who came inside after knowing the arrival of the King glued in his position, anger and frustration rose in his heart after thinking about the Prince.

How can he let his sister marry a womaniser and spoil her future? He wants to reject it but it is not the time to reject the King proposal bluntly. After thinking for a minute he got back his senses and went near to his family.

"What Lord Bratton? Are you shocked to the extent that you are not able to speak? Veronica asked haughtily. Veronica is not interested in this marriage, when King informed her she rejected him but the King didn't give her a chance and made his words final.

Based on the current situation it is better to make this girl their daughter in law, once her daughter's marriage is done then she will take care of Alyssa. It is not that difficult to get rid of a person like Alyssa, she gets rid of someone more powerful than Alyssa so she is more confident in her skills.

Later she will bring a princess from the other Kingdom and tie a knot with her son. It is just a matter of time, and this is the best way to bring her son back from the border.

"Apologise to Your Majesty, Your Highness. I am truly surprised by your words. It feels unreal." Bratton started speaking, he truly felt bad for his daughter. He doesn't know how to get out of this situation.

"Thank you for such a big honour, Your Majesty. We will definitely consider it." Bratton concluded.

Veronica snorted "What's there to consider? Lord Bratton. Do you think there will be a better person than my son and Prince of this Kingdom?"

"That's not what I mean Your Highness" Bratton got annoyed by the Queen's tone. This is his daughter's life. How can he make decisions without considering her feelings? More importantly, his daughter has a different opinion on life and she won't survive in that Palace.

"Your Highness," seeing the Bratton situation Katherine involved, she won't back down just because the opposition is Queen, "My Lord, didn't mean that. As you mentioned, Prince is really out of reach for my daughter. How can a Prince from this Great Kingdom match my daughter?"

Katherine smirked "My daughter is after all a normal girl. She is no match to your status and wealth. So we thought of discussing this matter before speaking anything. Because we have to answer Your Majesty. We don't want to disappoint the great trust he has in us. Don't you think the same, Your Highness?"

Veronica huffed and turned her head aside, Gabriel looked at Alyssa and inquired "Miss Alyssa, What do you think? Are you willing to marry my Son? Think twice before answering."

Gabriel changed his target, he knew talking with Bratton and Katherine won't work. If it is Alyssa she will not say no in front of all even after hearing his threat. If she is intelligent then she will definitely agree to this marriage.

Alyssa's palm turns sweaty, the pressure is too heavy on her and she can't even breathe comfortably. Cayden wants to go and reject the proposal but seeing the situation if he interferes the situation will become more drastic.

'Come On Lysa, Ask for time. Don't worry.' Cayden tried to send his vibes to her.

"T-That... Y-Your Majesty…" Alyssa doesn't know what to say, she clearly knows that she doesn't want this marriage but due to her selfishness, she doesn't want to put all her family members in trouble. Katherine and Bratton cursed the King and Queen inwardly for putting their daughter in this situation.

Suddenly the guard announced the arrival of an Envoy from the Neivya Kingdom. The announcement broke the suffocating atmosphere, Alyssa sighed with relief. Simon and Allora were shocked by the news. Why would their father envoy here?

Ivy was also surprised by the turn of events once again, earlier she thought that even if Alyssa agreed today she would think of a plan to rescue her if she didn't want to marry Prince. She already knows that she won't marry him but she wants to know Alyssa's opinion. But after listening to the Kingdom name a smile bloomed on her lips.

'Ho Ho, here comes the Prince to save his damsel in distress.' Ivy chuckled inwardly, if her guess is right then it will be more interesting.

Gabriel and Veronica frowned after hearing the Kingdom name and their faces show their disinterest in the envoy.

The envoy came and bowed before the King and Queen "Greetings to the King and Queen of the Great Krayton Kingdom."

"Rise," Gabriel sneered.

Envoy raised and looked at Bratton "Apologies for the intrusion Lord Bratton, I hope I didn't disturb anything."

'Of course, you did, but I am very happy for your intrusion.' Bratton thanked him inwardly and stated "No Problem. We are honoured by the King of Neivya Envoy in my daughter's ceremony. Please state your purpose of visit."

Envoy smiled and spoke "The matter is His Majesty is not able to attend the ceremony due to his busy schedule. He sent me here to pass a message to Lord Bratton. This is the parchment His Majesty asked me to pass it to you. Please grace us."

Envoy took the parchment and extended his both hands to hand over to Bratton. Bratton came towards the envoy and took the Parchment.

"Please send our greetings to His Majesty," Bratton added to which envoy nodded with a bow.

"What is there in that?" Gabriel inquired with his authoritative manner.

"T-That…" Envoy knows what is present in that one but the King told him to hand it over to Bratton and wait for his answer.

Envoy looked at Bratton to which he nodded his head to speak. Envoy understood and expressed politely "His Majesty sent the proposal for Miss Alyssa. His Majesty wants a marriage alliance with the daughter of Lord Bratton for the Prince of Neivya."

Once he informed the matter the hall fell into complete silence. No one dared to breathe heavily, Gabriel's face changed colour with anger but he suppressed it. It is a custom to propose the lady of the day and no one says anything in this.

Meanwhile, a few minutes back at Gavon Mansion, after Ivy left saying her words and asking him to not follow her made him freeze in his spot.

He didn't move from the spot for some time trying to digest her words. He didn't know what he did wrong until Ivy scolded him. He thought he was protecting her well but he never knew that he was hurting her.

Gavon didn't know how to treat a girl, he was never bothered by those things as he was always sure that he won't marry anyone but all these changed when he saw Ivy. The way she handles matters, the way she helps her family, the bond she formed with dragons made him realise how precious she is.

She has a lovely side and as well as a feisty side to her, he liked it when she dealt with King. He never knew that one day he witnessed the most amazing thing in his life until Ivy punished both Prince and Princess in the presence of King. Even though the punishment is less to them but she achieved those with her intelligence.

Day by day he became addicted to Ivy, whenever he saw her with her parents he knew how much she was pampered and loved by her parents. After seeing those he also wanted to pamper and love her the way they did but in that process, he forgot his role in her life and acted like a person who served her.

Gavon sighed and wanted to go to the Kreed Mansion to speak with her and promise her that he will never behave like this again and will communicate with her all his worries.

Before he moved, Ethan came rushing inside with worry on his face, "Gavon, bad news."

Gavon frowned after listening to Ethan words, he immediately rushed outside along with Ethan.. They both boarded horses and left the mansion in a hurry.
