The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair novel Chapter 84

When we were done eating we went into the forest. He explained to me the basics of how to take off and flight control. We shifted and the first day was pretty hard to even get off the ground.

Over the next week I still couldn't get it right, I kept crashing and it was hard to stay up or fly straight. I shifted back into my human form midair and fell.

Lexus caught me on his back and landed. He shifted back and hugged me. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine."

Later that night I shook him awake. "Yeah? Are you okay?" He asked worriedly.

"No... well I am but I..." I swallowed.

He sat up and cupped the side of my face with his hand. "Are you sure? I need to know if anything is wrong Aqua."

I closed my eyes. "I'm ready for us to mate..." I was ready for us to mate no matter how badly the mate mark would hurt in the moment.

Lexus moved his hand and laid down. "Oh, is that it? I'd rather not." He turned around with his back to me.

"What?" I sat up. "What do you mean you'd rather not?" We also hadn't had sex for a week, so I thought he'd jump at the chance.

Lexus shrugged. "I mean I don't want to hurt you. We can go into the nearest magic shop and get a potion that will lessen the pain for you. We'll mate soon."

I wasn't in a rush, but I didn't feel like I needed a potion. I wanted to get through the pain instead of using something cheap like a potion to. "I'm not taking any potion Lexus. We don't have to mate now but when we do I want it to be natural."

He didn't respond so I got up and left. I walked into the front of the inn and sat down on one of the couches. I looked at the piano then at my phone. I wanted to talk to Sadia about this but that was a terrible idea, so I called Cade.

"It's late Aqua," Cade whispered.

"I know but I need advice. What do you do when you and Sadia don't agree on something?" I asked.
