Dragon Loves Me

Ivy did not get bored because this is the first time she is celebrating birthday with her family members. She has so many people around her who love her, take care of her, pamper her, adore her and protect her.

It is the most memorable birthday she had and her smile didn't waver for a second. Allora who was brought up with strict palace etiquette didn't manage to smile this long when she was in her daughter's age but her daughter's smile is increasing with every passing second.

She felt happy and it seems Ivy happiness affected the people around her. Allora also had a smile dangled around her lips. Simon felt that he is the luckiest person in the world at this moment.

Alyssa dragged Cayden to the corner and whispered slowly "Bro, is everything prepared?"

"Yes, tonight I just need some alone time" Cayden seems nervous.

"Don't worry, leave that task to me. I will do that, but you have to make it well. Okay?" Alyssa stated.

Cayden took deep breath and said "Yes, I will do this"

"That's like my brother," Alyssa praised him.

The lively atmosphere suddenly became silent with the guard announcement.

"Everyone. The one and only sun of Krayton Kingdom, His Majesty has arrived."

With that the door opened and Gabriel entered the room along with the Prince, Princess and a few ministers. Gabriel is wearing his crown which is made of gold and studded with diamonds. His aura is domineering and his steps are full of authoritative.

Everyone in the room bowed their heads in front of their king. While the king is moving towards the centre of the room where the Dalton's family is present. Gabriel is wearing white robe along with a long red coat with a Krayton Crest dragon carved on it.

Prince Aaron is looking devilish in his golden colour coat, whereas Princess Andrea is looking beautiful in her pink ball gown. She is giving out an angelic look which made everyone look at her with admiration.

"Greetings to His Majesty, We are honoured with your Presence" Simon greeted.

"Rise, Everyone" Gabriel's powerful voice made everyone straighten their backs.

"Congratulations Miss Aivyn." Gabriel's voice made Ivy look at him.

Ivy looked at Gabriel and sensed the powerful and stressful aura coming out from him. It is really hard to stand in front of King, Ivy managed to Smile and gave a curtsy bow.

"I am honoured Your Majesty. Thank you for gracing us" Ivy thanked.

Gabriel laughed and said "Simon, you got such a beautiful daughter. You must treasure her."

"Yes, Your Majesty. We will" Simon smiled and looked at Ivy with gentleness in his eye.

"Calvin" Gabriel looked at Calvin and signalled him. Calvin nodded and clapped his hand to bring the present.

"Lord Simon, This is the present Your Majesty Prepared for Miss Aivyn Dalton to wish her on her birthday and age ceremony" Calvin stated.

"We are honoured. Your Majesty" Simon and his family members slightly bowed and stood straight.

The maid brought the tray which is covered with a white cloth. Everyone's eyes fell on the tray to know what exquisite gift His Majesty had prepared for Aivyn.

Calvin removed the cloth and a small oval shape bottle which contains blue colour liquid and attached with a chain is placed in the middle. Everyone looked at it with confusion.

Prince Aaron came forward and informed "Lord Simon, Miss Aivyn, This bottle contains the magic water."

A collective gasps are heard, everyone knows how valuable a drop of magic water is. The Magic water is not easily obtained. Only the royal family are able to have their hands on them and it is very hard to get it.

"It can heal any type of injury with its single drop. I hope it is to Miss Aivyn's liking" Aaron concluded.

Aivyn was surprised when she heard about it's power but she read so many fantasy stories in her life and she is quite amused to see one in real life.

She composed and smiled at Aaron and turned towards His Majesty and said with a curtsy "I am truly grateful for this valuable gift your majesty. I will treasure this with my life and used it for rightful purposes"

Aaron looked surprised by her behaviour, Gabriel also amused by her self esteem and smiled "I trust you Young lady"

With that, everyone settled in their respective chairs, Andrea is fuming inside her heart after entering into the mansion, first Aivyn dress is fashionable and she gave off a powerful vibe, second Cayden looks are on Aivyn the entire time and he didn't even saw her, third her father gave her such a valuable thing.

She clenched her fist hard and swore in her mind 'Aivyn, today you are doomed'.

Aivyn sensed the glare from someone and looked up to see the princess was glaring at her hard by forgetting the surroundings. Aivyn feels that she is the one behind her accident and her sixth sense is sending her warning signals to be aware of this lady.

Ivy got prepared for this day and she will definitely make it today without any hindrances. Simon and Allora are not feeling good about his majesty's gift. There is no need of giving Aivyn such a precious gift. They are sensing something is off with His majesty.

They already thought that it was a bait for them. They are feeling anxious but they didn't show it on their face as hosts. They need to entertain the guests.

Meanwhile the guests are feeling jealous with the treatment His majesty shows towards the Dalton family.

"It is clear that the two prominent families are very important and no one needs to be messed up with them"

"I sensed that His Majesty is showing special interest in Dalton Family"

"Why is that?"

"Don't you think His Majesty didn't give this kind of present to Cayden Young Master when is officially declared as Heir?"

"Now you said, come to think of it, that it is indeed correct. Is His Majesty planning to make her Prince fiancé?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? She is clearly a sick girl. His Majesty gave it to improve her health"

"This is also a possibility. But who knows what is in His Majesty's mind?"

Amidst their talks the music changed and the middle of the room was cleared to allow the Star of the day Aivyn along with her father to have her first dance.
