Dragon Loves Me

Oliver sighed seeing her expression and he almost imagined what she thought about him.

"Roll to the side." Oliver said calmly while trying to cool his body.

"Huh? Oh. Okay" Maia did as Oliver said and rolled to her right and fell on the ground smoothly.

Oliver got up and pressed his hand on his thigh to massage it to reduce the pain, he gave his hand to her to help.

Maia took his hand and stood up. They both dusted their clothes and looked at each with embarrassment.

"Oliver. That" Maia tried to speak with but Oliver cut her off by saying "Maia, you are not hurt right?"

Seeing the concern in his eyes made her heart skip a beat. She nodded her head indicating that she was not hurt.

:"Thank god. Let's go. Grandma already prepared lunch." Oliver guided to the house. Maia wanted to ask him about him but he didn't give her any chance to speak.

Oliver's ears turned red and he doesn't want her to speak about his injury again as it will make him feel embarrassed. As the most powerful person in the Kingdom don't want to reveal that he got hurt by the young maiden's smooth knee.

If word goes out it will become headlines.

They both went inside, John and Hana smiled at them warmly and served lunch to them. Hana prepared Chicken along with a few side dishes. They all ate happily while praising Hana cooking.

Maia also ate heartily and sighed with satisfaction 'This is Life.'

After lunch, Oliver and John helped in clearing the table and dishes. Hana went inside to have a short nap.

Maia sat in the hall while enjoying her peaceful time. John and Oliver came out from the kitchen and sat in front of her.

"Is lunch to your liking child?" John asked with a gentle smile.

"It's delicious." Maia replied and her eyes showed how much she liked it.

"Glad to know that." John smiled and his face turned serious when he asked "Child, I heard from Oliver about the details of your incident recently."

Maia also turned serious and she got it Oliver explained to him when they were in the Kitchen and she doesn't mind having a discussion with john.

"Yes," Maia replied sternly.

"We know who is behind this incident, but it is not possible to punish them based on their background." John said gravely. He understands the tension of this situation "So how are we going to deal with them? Any plans you both have."

Oliver looked at John before replying with a smirk "I have the person who attacked you. So we can teach him a good lesson secretly."

John shook his head and said "It is dangerous not only for you but also Maia. If this is only your problem you can deal in your way but this time Maia is also included. So any mistake may drag her with you"

Oliver also fell in deep thought, previously he never feared of teaching a good lesson to anyone irrespective of their position. But this time he is involved in another problem and that person is Maia who is quite dear to his…..

"I have a plan" Maia's words ended his thoughts. They both looked at her and waited for her to explain.

"But before that Oliver, how many people can you control in the court?" Maia asked carefully.

Oliver looked at her and smiled, which is sinister "All greedy old foxes."

Maia eyes widened "Really?" She thought of thirty to forty percent, and her father may get another thirty percent to their side. But hearing his words gave her so much confidence.

"Yes," Oliver smirked "I have their sins with me"

Maia's eyes twinkled with excitement. "In that case, I seriously want to teach them a lesson."

Maia explained to them about her plan and came up with the solutions for the bottlenecks while discussing with them. By the time Maia stopped talking they both looked at her with pride.

"You are both angel and devil." John complimented after hearing her plan.

"Yes, I never heard of this earlier. But it seems good." Oliver also praised. 'A puppet with no powers. Great.'

Maia felt embarrassed after listening to their words, but she felt happy. She doesn't want to kill them at once, they have to know the value of life, then only they will think before drawing their swords at others.

When the evening came, Maia and Oliver bid their goodbyes to the old couple. They are reluctant to let go of them but they promised to visit again.

The return journey was also quiet and no one spoke anything with each other but they were comfortable. After entering into the market the crowd is lessened and all the stalls are closing.

"My carriage is here. Then I will leave, Oliver" Maia replied.

Oliver looked at her and saw the carriage which she used in the morning "Okay. Be careful on the way."

"Mm." Maia wants to spend some more time with him but today's goal is achieved. She got to know about the evidence he has regarding this incident and also his power.

Maia turned around to leave but before she took two steps she turned and said "Thanks again for today. I will never forget this."

Oliver's eyes become gentle "Me too. Thanks for the day"

"So from tomorrow we are back to normal. See you later Lord Gavon."

"Mm. Ms Aivyn."

[Back to normal names :)]

Ivy smiled and looked into his eyes one last time before turning around and went towards her carriage. When she reached her carriage she spotted Kily who seemed to be anxious.

"Kily,"

Kily looked at Aivyn and rushed towards her "Miss, where did you go? I was worried about you."

Ivy felt guilty for not informing her beforehand "Sorry Kily, I forgot. But it's fine there are always people watching me from the shadows."

Kily was relieved after seeing Aivyn safe and sound, she tried to report to Master Simon but she remembered Aivyn words of shadow guards and calmed down.

"Miss, Please don't say sorry. But let me know beforehand if you want to go anywhere." Kily replied.

"Sure, Did you buy something in the market? Show me." Ivy asked and they both entered into the carriage to leave for home.

Soon the carriage left the market, Gavon who was waiting for them to leave saw it until it was out of his eye eight and turned around to leave.

'Maia. I will never forget this day.. Thank You' Gavon smiled and left the palace.
