The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair novel Chapter 26

Abilities

I stood beside Lexus in front of his parents King Peter and Queen Jane with Konn behind us. "You believe you're the holder?"

"We believe she's the holder because of the power of sight in her third eye. She also had a holder dream last night," Lexus answered.

The King looked down at me. "What have you seen with your third eye?"

I thought about Cade arguing with Vella during work and Princess Hannah sneaking out to ditch class. I couldn't say either of those because it would throw them under the bus. "I saw Konn speaking with the two of you here this morning. You two were disagreeing about something then Konn left, and Gray was waiting for him outside the door." I looked at their desk. "There were papers on the desk, documents of the kingdom's complaints." I tried to remember other details that were different. I looked at the tv. "An interview was playing on the tv."

"That's enough," The Queen stopped me. "We believe you. Now what was your dream? Please sit down, both of you." Lexus and I sat down in the chairs facing the king and queens' desk that they were sitting behind. Konn remained standing. I told them about the second part of my dream. "The Gemstones? All of them?"

"I'm not sure, but more than one for sure." I wish I had more details for them.

The King shrugged. "Don't worry Jane, there's no way for us to know if this was an actual holder dream." He reassured his wife.

"The guard, she said the passcode to the safe." I wasn't sure if I should have just said it.

"Say it," the King challenged.

"3365-"

"Okay." The Queen cut me off again so I wouldn't say the last two digits then glared at the King for challenging me. Lexus rolled his eyes, most likely because he was the only one who didn't know the passcode. His parents were keeping it from him, so was it because they didn't trust him? "There's no more doubt in our minds that you're the holder but we'd like you to use your third eye in front of us."

"Can you do it on command now?" Konn asked since last time I couldn't do it in front of him.

"She can do it if they're close enough," Lexus answered for me. "So far she hasn't been able to see something outside of the castle and has only fixated on people." It felt good to have him there. I think he knew I didn't want to have to do all the talking.

I closed my eyes, waiting for someone to give me a name. "Look for Hannah." I couldn't do that, and not because she told me not to spy on her but because she'd definitely be in trouble with them. I tried to see Hannah just in case she had gotten back but she was too far out of my reach.

"Hannah isn't here." Konn said so I didn't have too. "Her last three professors said she never showed up, but we have guards out looking for her.
