Chapter 9

Three day's prior

Lividia woke to the sound of thunder clapping smiling she knew what it was. The healers and Ahmad sent her medicine through. She pulled it out the air popping the balloon's it floated in on.

No way she smiled dragons breath again? Lividia sighed she sat on the side of the bed preparing her self.

She removed the cork of the red bottle opening her mouth inhaling deep. Her face turned shades of green and red dragon scales showed under her brown beautiful skin. She removed the hospital monitoring equipment coughing violently once more into a pillow.

In fifteen minutes she stopped the pillow full of puss blood and mucus. Ahh, ahhh, she breathed laboured the green bottle lit.

Tear's of a dragon Jesus she said calling on the false God of her fore father's of this land.

Popping the cork again she swallowed the slippery liquid that lit her body a golden light shining through her toes finger's and eye's. Coughing a little but not a lot.

Lay down the last paper read in her native tongue. Dragon's blood Lividia rolled her eye's she pulled the dropper from the bottle.  Three drop's under the tongue three time's a day.

She put the first three closing the bottle quick instantly falling asleep. The nurse's came in seeing the pillow worried they checked her but her lung's were clear as a bell.
Let her rest she looks tired the Doctor advised.

What? The nurse looked at Livida's arm dragon scales rattling under her skin glowing green and red. The nurse jumped back when she looked again it was gone. She rubbed her skin up and down nothing was there.

Livida felt feverish but it was light I'll get you Tylenol Ma Ruby. No, no drugs girl. Let the medicine do it's work.

The nurse looked at the pretty bottles not questioning her old baby sitter yes ma'am covering her with a blanket she exited the room.

The ride through Etharkia was beautiful Samira never saw a place as beautiful ever. The landscapes were gorgeous greens golds and reds. People stopped their chores waving at Ahmad who waved back as his sixteen horse escort rode in front and behind them.

Samira looked outside at the Daisy's she smiled big. Ahmad hit the wall of the coach Samira heard them team of horses stop. The coach man hopped down lowering the step for Ahmad who ran out the coach quickly returning with an arm full of African Daisies.

Ahmad cut his boot lace tying the bouquet together. Samira smiled thank you Ahmad. She knew she better enjoy it because in a few minutes he was going to be livid.

They arrived at the rider's academy. She was stared at holding Ahmed's arm holding the box of dragon's as Hunter waddled in front of her. The rider's stared at her beauty she was all they'd heard about waterstone women.

Most of them never seeing one because they were dead Samira was a unicorn to them there wasn't a rider among them that didn't want her on thier arm.

The rider's knelt with their eyes down when Ahmad walked in the camp. Ahmad walked past smiling rise please brother's walking to the principal commander's office.

Ahmad! My baby rider! Had to make a dragon saddle for a five year old come he hugged Ahmad. Who's this?

Principal commander Toy I give you Princess Samira Waterstone of house Waterstone. The older commander stared remembering her mother and how he'd fallen in love with her at first sight.

He looked to the painting of her mother on the wall Samira looked at the split image of herself. She walked to the oil painting how do you have my portrait yet you've never seen me? She asked amazed.

It's no trick child that's your mother and the love of my life. Samira squeezed Ahmed's hand this is the first time I've seen my mother's face commander.

Toy was shocked Ahmad shook his head no so he wouldn't ask any  question's at she stared at the portrait of her self on canvas.

Minus the grey eyes we look the same. That you do my dear the man held his arm behind his back standing tall staring at her trying not to cry.

What do I owe the pleasure of a house Waterstone visit where is Lividia? In the hospital commander. Ahmad spoke in thier tounge explaining everything.

She will come home I'll have to get her out the shadow land's as that's where the portal is.

Haha Lividia hasn't been on a dragon since your father used to steal her from Waterstone. Noni ran off with a boy? I'd like to see that. Not just any boy a king!

Haha for weeks! The commander laughed the king is my best friend your father betrothed to your mother Ahmad since birth house a natural Windstone princess.

Your father had to do thing's the hard way courting a princess from another house he wasn't betrothed to? The scandal do you think be cared the commander shaking his head.

Stealing Lividia off her bedroom balcony in her pajamas for midnight dragon ride's.

Samira's jaw was open if I come out on front of a guy with two buttons down she's having a fit.

As she should Ahmad added no man is to look upon what does not belong to them. Samira peered at him and who do I belong to Ahmad.

He ignored her question she cut her eyes at him the commander sipped his blood water Ginger  drink grinning under his cup.

Samira the box please she held it tight. Samira we spoke about this the box please. She handed the box to the commander he opened the box smiling where is the lead? Ahmad looked down upset. The commander looked over his desk to a dragon eating daisies like they were chips.

What happened? He smiled. She raised him wrong and he Rijket hasvainaw. No Ahmad! Yes Commander. Samira can you show me your shoulder please? She looked to Ahmad drawing close to him it's okay Ahmad covered most of her showing him the mark.

The commander shook his head not believing  his eyes come with me please he took Samira to a large open clearing above her at least 150 dragon's circled.

She looked up smiling Samira! Yes sir? I need you to read the paper I gave you but I'll need you to yell it as loud as possible.

The rider's watched laughing at the foolish notion of their prince Samira was embarrassed. Ahmad looked at the rider's they stopped laughing.

Are you sure?! Yes Samira I'm sure! Samira held the paper looking up in the sky.

The dragon's circled above her Ahmad! He ran to her it's okay Samira. 150 dragon's landed in a circle around her kneeling at her feet.
