The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair novel Chapter 60

Aqua held back a smile and Arma rolled her eyes. "What are you doing here?" Aqua asked. "Do you need me? I might not be the most help right not I'm feeling nauseous.

I shook my head. "I'm just bored." I noticed Stewart and Vella were working too. Vella was working in the garden while Stewart was leaning the benches. I guess the garden was a nice spot for a lot of people to work and hangout today. Even Cade was hanging out in the garden with Gray and Konn. Gray was sleep on Konn's lap. The Guards all looked pretty cheerful. There were other workers spread out in different sections gardening. It was a nice day, but it was hard to enjoy after what I did to Sadia.

Arma was concerned. "Aqua if you're not feeling well you don't have to help."

Aqua shook her head. "It's a weird feeling, I think it's a holder thing. I just feel like something really bad is going to happen, but I don't know what." I was worried about her but if I showed too much concern it'd be suspicious. I trusted Arma to comfort her for me.

I looked down at my phone to see that Sadia sent a message that she was on her way to get her things. I got up. "Now I'm not bored." I needed to get all her things together, so we didn't have to see each other for long.

"Where are you going?" Vella asked. "Your girlfriend is right there." She looked like she hadn't got much sleep last night. I looked over to Aqua who was kneeling over now and Arma was rubbing her back. Konn gave Gray who was still asleep to a Guard and walked over to Aqua.

"What are you talking about Vella? I don't have time for a story." I walked past her.

She grabbed my arm and I stopped. "I'm talking about Aqua. You ghosted me to sleep with her instead?" She whispered. That really wasn't the case because I regretted sleeping with Vella immediately after. It was just poor timing.

I sighed. "No Vella, I ghosted you because you were with my best friend. Nothing is going on with Aqua." I said at a low volume so no one would hear but Arma was staring at us.

Vella scoffed. "I saw you both by the hiking trail last night. I couldn't really hear you, but I could see you two clearly making out." She wasn't whispering anymore. "You and Aqua." She turned to Aqua. "You think you're lucky because you're sleeping with him? It's not going to last, someone else will come along."

She wanted to expose us, she said it loud enough for everyone in the garden to hear. Cade walked to us. "Vella, this has nothing to do with you."

Vella glared at Cade. "No, it does. It's his fault we're not together anymore."
