Bree took a quick glance at her mates who have very reluctantly taken their seats, this time she didn't have to try really hard to remember the identity of each of her mates. The one with emerald hair and amber eyes that seemed to glow was none other than the Dragon Queen and now her official husband—— Yakov Sceptre, he was the son of the Ex chancellor of the Dragniere empire and with a father and mother who were both known for their good looks in their time, Yakov was blessed with a beauty that was hard to miss. But that wasn't alone, he was not just some empty vase—— he hailed from a family that was known for its pure bloodline and the only Werewolf whose blood was untouched by the blood of an omega. Though, this long history would have been broken if Yakov has mated with Harley.
And apart from his distinctive bloodline and background, he was also rather quick witted and smart. The plan to assassinate the Dragon Queen was something that came out of his damned mind.
Her gaze slowly raked over her second mate, dark black hair that was just a shade lighter than hers, red eyes that seemed to be dripping blood—— Ahmar Greco. The second mate of the Dragon Queen who was a half-vampire and a sword master, because his family wasn't a pureblood, he wasn't treated with the same respect as the others, in fact when the Dragon Queen was selecting her consorts, Ahmar was literally forced by his father to take part in it. Though with his title as the swordmaster of the continent, he didn't have to—— Queen Brianna has given him the authority to control her army and Ahmar has taken full advantage of it. Though he was stoic and didn't seem to like talking much, he was one of those ——silent ones are the deadliest type.
Behind the Dragon Queen's back, he was researching for an ore that could pierce through her skin and kill the Dragon Queen in one stab. In the book, Ahmar succeeded in creating an ore that could pierce through the Dragon Queen's skin.
Bree clicked her tongue as she turned her head and let her gaze fall on the third mate of the Dragon Queen, silver hair that was as white as the snow and eyes that were as grey as the clouds of the storm—— Blaise De Luca, the archmage of the tower of the magic and the man who was responsible for creating the poison that killed the Dragon Queen. He was a genius archmage and was the only man alive on the continent who was able to create a poison so deadly that it killed a hail and hearty dragon in a single hit.
Blaise smeared the sword that Ahmar created with his skills as the swordmaster, with the two of them collaborating together like this, the Dragon Queen didn't stand a chance.
A shaky breath escaped past her rosy lips, as Bree's gaze landed on the fourth and the last mate of the Dragon Queen —— Cian Testa, bubbly pink hair and eyes that were just as blue as the dept of the ocean. A siren whose magic knew no bounds, as a siren just his voice was enough to drive anyone crazy but Brianna was the Dragon Queen, a siren voice was like the voice of a canary to her. She brought Cian to her harem because she thought that he was a 'unique' creature and this unique creature, then went behind her back and created a melody that slowed her movements and completely blocked her senses.
It wouldn't be wrong to say that without Cian's intervention, Brianna would have survived. It was him—— who delivered the final blow to the Queen by that deadly melody of his.
Just thinking about it made Bree break out in cold shivers—— how unfortunate. Was the Queen looking for mates or was she trying to get herself killed? Each of her mates was one up the another! Holy quivers!
But Bree couldn't blame Brianna for it, these four were her mates that were determined by the destiny, if she had another choice may be the dragon Queen would have gone for a bit tamer ones maybe——-
" Well obviously," huffed a haughty voice, at first she was stunned but then Bree realised something—— the voice didn't come from somewhere else but inside of her. She licked her lips nervously, as she called out inwardly, " Saphira?"
The dragon inside her didn't respond but Bree did feel her body getting hotter. Woah, this was —- crazy weird. Though Bree had lived her life as a normal human, shockingly enough she didn't hate this feeling at all. Maybe it was because she has been alone for a very long time and that was why she liked the thought of Saphira residing inside her.
As the skin heated up, the reality of the situation started to sink in—— she was a Dragon shifter, the mother of all Dragon and the Queen of this continent.
Though it was a really responsible job and one that she wasn't prepared for, now that she was here —— she will have to try her best.
She drew in a breath as her skin glowed slightly and warmth like she was praised for doing something good, started to flow inside her... Bree's lips curled up as the realisation struck her, Saphira was praising her. Though the dragon didn't use words, there was no way—— she was going to misunderstand this after all the thing that she liked the most in her world was getting praised!
And this was the exact same feeling that she used to get back then.
Bree's back straightened instinctively as she smiled, very well then——let's do something that will Saphira even more proud.
She glanced around the room and then raised her head haughtily. " I will first ask for forgiveness from all my dear ministers and my beloved consorts. From the past few months, I have been acting a bit crazily." She pointed to her head as she made a gesture of ' lost my mind'. " though many would say that I … Brianna Dragniere, the Dragon Queen, lost my mind. I am very pleased to tell all those who have been waiting for me to lose my mind, that these past few months were nothing but a test." A buzz started as soon as her words fell upon the crowd, however, Bree raised her hand imperiously and the crowd fell immediately silent.
Once the silence descended on the crowd she smiled pleasantly, though her smile looked similar to an executor who was going to drop the blade of a guillotine at any moment.
" That's right a test, as the Queen and the ruler of the country, I am a bit wilful, you know that right? One day while I was alone, a thought came to my head and I couldn't help but think that if by any chance, I wasn't the Queen, just how many people sitting here will care about me? Or what if I fell sick? Will someone come and take care of me? It was a simple test where I wanted to test the loyalty of my ministers and" she turned her slitted golden eyes that were glinting coldly towards her mates, who have for very interesting reasons gone pale. " and to test the love of my mates, and I must say the results are a bit shocking."
