The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair novel Chapter 39

I flew to the pack house. I walked to Sadia's room in my human form and knocked on the door. "Cade? So, Lexus is canceling on me?" She sighed. "Again."

I hated lying. "He's been getting more work than usual lately." I walked in. "We've been having fun together though right?" I really felt that way.

"We have." She closed the door behind me and walked to her desk. "It sucks that I've been planning the premating ceremony all by myself. Well not all by myself since the queen assigned us someone to help plan but me and Lexus are supposed to be making the big decisions together."

I walked over to her and saw the wedding planner on her desk. "I can help, I know what Lexus likes."

Sadia smiled. "Thanks Cade. When me and Lexus are married and mated, I'll start helping him with his work and we'll spend a lot of time together again." That is if Lexus doesn't try to end things. I pulled up a chair and sat next to her. "Okay I want a huge flashy wedding, I'm so happy I don't have to hold back, the King and Queen said I can spend as much as I want."

We looked over something and she showed me what she knew she wanted for sure for the wedding and what she wasn't so sure about. After half an hour we took a break.

Sadia laughed at a story I told about my time teaching the younger kids in the castle to fly. "You're the worst teacher ever." I never realized how much I loved her laugh.

I stood up and moved the chair to the side. "Well, they can fly now, can't they?" I joked.

Sadia stood up and pushed her chair into the desk. "I'm not sure if they can with the kind of instructions and demonstration you gave them." She giggled. "Lexus taught me how to fly, if he didn't, I'm not sure who would have." We laid down on our back on her carpet floor and stared up at the ceiling.

Sadia broke the silence with something that had obviously been on her mind for a while. "Last night Lydia was asking me what it meant to be a good girlfriend. She's dating Princess Hannah, so I guess that's why she wanted to know. We went to go for a late-night run and saw Hannah, Lexus and Aqua not too far from here." This was news to me "Aqua was there because she was using her abilities for Hannah but I'm not sure why Lexus was with them. They just happen to both be up that late? He said Hannah needed their help, but Hannah didn't need anything from Lexus. It's not like he's usually there for Hannah. He's so closed off from everyone, even here so why would he go out of his way?"
