"Hey Theovin, I've been waiting for years for you to come out. Just figured out you wouldn't be able to sit for much longer at that table doing nothing." Ralph said, as he leaned on the car.
"Shut up and get in the car!" Theovin barked at Ralph, who always seemed to find a way to aggravate him.
"Okay, okay, I get it, you're still moody," Ralph began to say, but was abruptly cut off by Theovin's loud voice.
"I'm beginning to wonder why I haven't tried hurling you out of this realm into Ulrific!" Theovin exclaimed as he stared pointedly at Ralph.
"Well, you love me. You're just too shy to admit it, right?" Ralph taunted playfully, but he fell silent when he felt a burning gaze upon him, causing him to shiver. 'Geez, I think that's my cue to shut up now,' he thought to himself.
Theovin's feeling of unease that had been haunting him for the entire day suddenly intensified, leaving him with an even stronger sense of discomfort.
He gritted his teeth, trying to push through the pain, but it only intensified, coursing through his veins like a wildfire.
He stumbled forward, clutching at his chest, his face contorted in agony.
Theovin's heart felt like it was being wrenched out of his chest, and he could feel every beat stabbing him with hot spears of pain.
The beast within Theovin was growing increasingly restless, clawing to break free from within him.
Graw! grahhh..! Bang!
Theovin slammed his fist against the car door, causing it to dent, as his clothing began to tear apart at the seams.
His body was expanding rapidly, growing twice its original size as the beast within him fought to break free.
The raven dragon tattoo on Theovin's body began to elongate, stretching from his back to his right shoulder and moving as a faint dragon's roar could be heard.
The dragon tattoo spread out its wings and began to glow with a bright golden hue, radiating intense energy that filled the surrounding area.
Ralph was left speechless, his lineage being suppressed by the immense energy emanating from Theovin's tattoo.
He couldn't help himself as he instinctively dropped down to his knees and thrust his chest out, a gesture of submission before the powerful display of power.
Theovin's eyes glowed a brilliant golden hue as golden scales began to emerge from his skin, slowly covering his hands and forearms before spreading up to his face.
Theovin now radiated with a blazing golden color, the color of the royal lineage, as his aura grew even more intimidating and powerful.
Theovin's gaze flickered briefly towards Ralph before he bounded into the air, leaving a trembling Ralph behind as he soared away.
As Theovin left, the oppressive energy that had been weighing down on Ralph began to gradually dissipate, allowing him to hastily stand up and jump out from behind the car.
He quickly looked around and realized that the road was now empty.
"Phew..! Ah, it would have been troublesome if there were humans here, those nosey beings, but WTF just happened? I have to find him, who knows what he is up to damn!"
Ralph closed his eyes and immediately connected to a golden thread and picked up speed as he ran.
This golden thread can be used to track down Theovin no matter where he was in the country, only the knight of the royal family was privileged to this.
"Hmm...I just hope he doesn't smash things on the way that would be more work for me. And maybe he should try not to be seen."
But as he remembered what happened minutes ago he could only hope.
Ralph muttered under his breath as he quickened his pace to catch up with Theovin, knowing that he could never match his highness' effortless grace, but determined to arrive on time.
~~~~~~~~~~~
A fog of confusion clouded Theovin's mind as he struggled to make sense of his thoughts.
His body felt heavy and sluggish, yet a strange energy pulsed through him as if a powerful force was struggling to break free.
Theovin couldn't explain the sensation, but the image of a fierce dragon king sprang to mind, its spirit pushing against the barriers of his consciousness.
This has never happened before! "Arrrrh!..." Theovin moaned in pain.
His skin prickled with intense heat as if he was being lowered into a boiling volcano.
The sensation was overwhelming, and he felt his body break out into a cold sweat.
A sense of dread washed over him as he realized he was no longer in control of his body. His spirit had taken over, and he couldn't comprehend its intentions.
He had too much at stake to let his spirit wreck everything.
"Buzz...What are you doing? You know we are not allowed to shift in the human world right? Buzz…"
'Wait why are you feeling so excited?'
Theovin kept asking Gold Song.
_But it seemed Gold Song didn't want to respond as he kept on bounding forward, going through streets and allies as though he was being called.
"PHEW! I'M BACK! AM I NOW?" Gold Song uttered and flexed his hand to feel the body in his control.
"Silly dragon did you just come out to play or .... qqqqqqq." Theovin started but stopped.
"What's that? I hear something calling me!" Theovin took a step forward, and suddenly, he felt a bump against him.
As soon as Theovin felt the bump against him, his body became hot, and he let out a low growl.
"MATE! MATE!!"
Theovin could feel his whole body screaming for the person in his arms.
He leaned forward, burying his nose in the crook of her neck, and inhaled deeply.
The sweet scent of her skin filled his senses, and he felt a sense of calmness wash over him.
The sensation felt like heaven to Theovin, and his whole body became relaxed as if he had come home.
His mind was screaming with only one thought - to hold onto this moment forever.
Gold Song had started tussling with him to take control again and was roaring.
"MARK HER!! MARK HER!"
As he fought to maintain control, Theovin felt a primal urge taking over him.
Before long, his fangs started elongating, growing an inch in length.
He could feel his entire body changing, becoming more animalistic with each passing moment.
He knew that he had to regain his self-control before things got out of hand.
Theovin was on the verge of losing control and was about to sink his fangs into her neck when he heard a loud piercing scream.
Theovin quickly snapped out of his trance, realizing what he almost did.
The reality of the situation hit him hard, and he pulled back, trying to gather his thoughts and maintain his composure.
Rosey's small voice trembled with fear as she screamed at the mysterious man who had bumped into her and ensnared her in his embrace, his sharp, stiletto-like silhouette looming over her.
"Who are you?" she demanded, her heart racing as she felt his breath on her neck.
With a confident gaze and lust-filled eyes, Theovin declared, "I am Dragon King Theovin, and you are my mate.
I have searched for you for centuries. I will do anything to keep you safe and make you happy. You are my mate, and I will cherish you for eternity."
Rosey's heart thudded painfully as the giant figure towered before her, his body aglow with golden scales.
Before she could comprehend the stranger's words, her gaze began to sway, and the last thing she saw was his outstretched hand, before she lost consciousness.
Theovin was startled and became stunned when he heard his spirit, Gold Song, screaming within him.
He could feel the overwhelming power of the spirit taking over, and he struggled to regain control of his own body.
The sound of Gold Song's screams echoed in his mind, making it hard for him to concentrate.
"YOU HAVE KILLED HER YOU GOOD FOR NOTHING!!
I WANTED TO COME OUT BUT YOU REPRESSED ME! NOW WE ARE MATELESS ARGH!!.
YOU GOOD FOR NOTHING FOUR HUNDRED YEARS OF WAITING THEN YOU KILL HER IN TWO MINUTES!"
Theovin was in a state of panic, struggling to hold on to his own consciousness while also trying to keep Gold Song from taking control.
He knew that if he lost control completely, Gold Song would wreak havoc in the human realm, causing chaos and destruction.
Theovin was facing a daunting challenge as he fought to maintain his composure.
He could feel his own anger and frustration taking over, and his eyes started to turn blood-red.
He was gradually losing himself to self-rage, and it was only a matter of time before he completely lost control.
He had to find a way to calm himself down before he did something he would regret.
Theovin was trying to shake the figure in his arms to wake her up, but she wasn't responding.
Gold Song's constant blabbering was adding fuel to his rage, making it harder for him to maintain his composure.
"Sometimes I wonder what I am doing by your side.
You never treat me well, always running off, causing trouble, and making a mess for me to clean up. It's difficult for me to keep up with your antics and put things right every time."
Ralph trailed off as he caught sight of what Theovin was doing. He felt a sense of shock and disbelief as he tried to comprehend the situation.
"Oh seriously, now you are running around killing innocent pretty face girls,"
"Your Highness, listen to me," Ralph said urgently.
"You need to calm down and hold it in. I understand that you are under a lot of stress, but you must not lose control.
Please, take deep breaths and focus on regaining your composure."
Ralph was trying his best to calm Theovin down, but he failed to notice how the scales on Theovin's body started becoming sharper at the edges.
Theovin's extreme anger was becoming more evident.
