Dragon Loves Me

Alyssa rushed downstairs to meet his elder brother Cayden, she loves his brother and he is the one who supports her, pampers her to the core.

"Brother" Alyssa shouted and hugged Cayden who was waiting for her at the end of the stairs.

"Woah, slow down. You may trip and fall" Cay reminded gently.

"You will be there to catch me right," Alyssa said with a giggle.

"But not anytime. Lysa" Cay said.

Alyssa pouted and said "At least when you are near me. Anyway, How are you? You seem to have gained weight."

Lysa looked at cay from head to toe as she was detecting something.

"Mom said I have become thin. You are saying I gained weight. Huh?" Cayden didn't believe whom he needed to trust.

"Mom always says that even if you are not home for one day" Lysa commented.

Before Cayden replied, Bratton's strict voice echoed in the hall "Lysa, how many times I have to tell you to not run like that? Soon your age ceremony is coming and still you are behaving like a kid."

Lysa hid behind Cayden and answered "Dad, it's because of happiness to see brother."

"Don't give reasons. When will you learn?" Bratton nagged.

"Dad, let her be like this till she gets married. After that she won't be able to do all this' ' Cayden supports his sister.

"Don't support her like that Cay, you are an adult and she is going to be an adult. Is that how she behaves?" Bratton retorted.

"Seriously Dear, he is 21 year old and our daughter is still 17. Why are you so strict on her?" Katherine, who is a silent watcher till now, did not stand anymore to watch her husband's words.

"I know you are worried about our daughter but I will take care of her and prepare her. She is a quick learner and she will easily mingle with everyone. You don't worry" Katherine added.

Bratton looked at the trio and sighed "I can't win against you three. Do what you like. Come and have dinner."

"Dad, I know you worried about me. But I promise you that I will behave properly. So smile now" Lysa said while hugging her father from the side.

Bratton loves his daughter dearly but he puts a strict face to not spoil his children a lot. He wants them to face society without any fear. He wants them to be strong and fearless.

He knows how harsh society will be, he don't want his children to be timid and weak. He is aware they are doing their best but sometimes he doesn't stop worrying about them. Due to today his majesty's behaviour added worries in his heart.

After seeing his daughter's happy face he didn't have the heart to reject her request and smiled happily.

"You look handsome when you smile, dad." lysa said.

Bratton laughed happily and said "Whatever my daughter says."

Lysa looked at her mother and brother before saying "You two don't speak like that with my dad. Understand."

After saying that she took her father to the dining hall leaving the two flabbergasted people behind.

'Do you know this is called betrayal?' The mother and son looked at each other and sighed before going to have their dinner.

The next two days Ivy got busy with all the shopping and preparing for her age ceremony and birthday. Even Simon and Ronald are also busy with their work.

Ivy didn't go out as she is going to meet the Kreed family members today. They are coming to pay a visit and Ivy dragged Ronald to the garden to get a few details.

"What is ivy?" Ronald inquired with confusion.

Ivy looked around to make sure no one is hearing them and asked secretly "Do you know the Kreed family is also known as Dragon Controllers?"

"Of course" Ronald said and his voice was loud.

"Shh.. Shh" Ivy gestured while placing finger on her mouth.

"Don't speak loudly" Ivy said while looking around.

Ronald unknowingly lowered his voice and asked "Why? Why are you making it secretive?"

Ivy fidgeted with his dress before answering "Actually, You know I was not attentive previously and didn't inquire about any of these things. So I just want to know what is the relation between Dragon Controllers and our family?"

Ronald thought for a while before replying "Okay, now I got it. You're probably feeling nervous right. Don't worry your elder brother saves you from any crisis"

Ivy felt happy in her heart when she listened to his sweet and heart warming words. These are the perks of having siblings, they will fight every time but when anyone is in trouble they will support each other.

"As your master, that is my responsibility. Call me master" Ronald said with a smirk.

'This is the real face of siblings.' Ivy takes back all the good words she thought about Ronald.

Ivy stomps on his feet before saying "Tell me Ronald. When I am asking nicely"

"AH." Ronald winced in pain and gulped seeing the fierce side of his sister. She didn't want to mess with her.

"Okay. Cool down. I will tell you. What relationship do we have? The friendly relationship between two powerful families. That's it" Ronald said while rubbing his feet which were in pain.

"Ohh. Okay. Wait. What?" Ivy eyes widened with shock.

"Shh.. you said to speak slowly. Why are you shouting?" Ronald said.

"Ah.. scratch it. What did you say? We are friends with them and that makes us Dragon… Dragon Keepers?" Ivy inquired with a blank face.

"Yes. We are known as Dragon Keepers" Ronald said as a matter of fact.
