Chapter 16

The engagement party was the next night. Samira wished Cassia was there. She was like a big sister to Samira. Her parents worked a lot and Lividia helped raise her spanking's and all when she didn't listen. Her parent's said nothing when Ma Ruby as the neighborhood children so fondly named Lividia.

Both her parent's died from covid leaving Cassia alone with no other family. Samira knew she was going crazy looking for them.

Once her fitting's were done she flew to the shadow lands. Shahid get dressed as normal as possible no robes no silks or uniforms simple like I'm dressed now.  Hunter shook his head I said okay Hunter go just be here when I call.

Hunter lowered his head Samira kissed him okay now go check on the black eggs tell Farah don't pick them up.

He flew off the shadow demons laughing at Hunter making the trees shake with their vibrating laughter.

Shahid dressed they rode horses to the first mirror accompanied by the shadow demons. Guard the mirror Samira yelled blowing kisses. I'll bring back a few movie's. Shahid stopped what's wrong? I'm afraid. Of? I've never left Etharkia except when we went to your house. Even then we came right back Sam. It's okay I have my phone and my service was paid for ten year's by Obsidian so the phone work's.

Of course he did daddy's little princess. Come on Shahid I got you wait do have any weapon's? He pulled a gun a sword and a knife. Give them to the shadow's. He passed over his holster and weapons when we come back have my guns.

We won't be gone long Shahid dang. She held out her hand the two of them stepped into the mirror they were in the long island home. This is nice. Obsidian bought it for of we come into the mirror. I love it.

It's in a beach Sam. Yes it's called beach front property very expensive. Of course daddy let his princess pick it. Of course he bought it for the family not just me silly.

Who's name is on the land deed? Obsidian he paid cash. Of course. Whats your issue Shahid you're one of us and you have just as much money daddy gave you your endowment whats your issue? Samira grabbed doritos down munching come in the cab is here. Already?

Yes lol. Cab? The horses. She got in the car come in man! He hopped in the back holding her hand trembling.

She lay her head on his shoulder it's fine baby i can feel your heart beating.

In a world with no weapons and no dragons? It's not safe. Hey y'all going to the renaissance ball? I heard you all say dragon's. RRRRRR!

RIGHT? Samira laughed yeah dude Shahid reached in his pocket she asked in Etharkian whats in there? A blade woman I'm not walking with the Queen of Etharkia with no protection and if you die what will Obsidian say?

She shook her head shaid smiled when he saw the New York City skyline it's beautiful this is the place in the TV? Yes bae. Wait till i tell the shadows i was here and it's real.

Don't do that Shahid they spoke in Etharkian. Why? Because you already told them the dragon's were fake but now it's real?

Then you'll be mad because they tore up the mess hall and kitchen again arguing because prince Shahid said it was real and even came back with a photo and if the city is real then definitely the dragon's are real.

You have a point baby. You know the shadow's find any reason to fight each other they love fighting Shahid.

That's because they practice combat on each other that's what makes them so good. From birth they teach the little one how to hold a knife and they can't walk yet. Oh wow. How do they mate?

No one knows but we do know dragon eggs fuel them and when they have enough you'll see a new baby. Since you gave them permission to eat one egg per day they been real happy they share eggs too. Let me know if they get hungry bae.

I will what's up with the black eggs everyone is exited. I'm not. Why? The holy half dead said I'm their mother whatever that means. Well as soon as it hatches call me no matter the time.

Okay she grinned. It's going to be fine Sam. If you say so Sha.

She is. Can you tell her Samira is here please. Yes wait here. Cassia came running out toward Samira Shahid stepped in front of her it's okay Sha. He steppes aside.

Where have you both been? Cassia wiped her eyes. Is there a place we can speak privately? Cassia pulled them in an empty conference room.

Is Ma Ruby okay? Yes she is fine and misses you listen Cassia I don't have a lot of time can you say you have a family emergency and won't be back until say Wednesday? A week?

Yes. Cassia I'm getting married and they're tossing me an engagement party and I want you there. Cassia smiled is this the lucky groom? Shaid smiled Samira gazed in his eyes I wish pecking him hugging him with a tear in her eyes.

What's wrong Samira? I'll tell you later Cassia who wiped her tears away why is the future bride so upset? Nothing Cassia please come with me? Of course Cassia left and returned in fifteen minutes wait I need to pack. No you don't.

The trio walked to the store across the street y'all take cash app? What's that? Shahid asked in his native tounge. Currency. Oh. 

Samira paid for every bag of sanitary napkins and tampons tthey had. I'll need garbage bag's dude. The store keeper ran to get her garbage bag's. Whats that? The rag except you throw it away not wash it. Waste of money Shahid smiled. All the doritos all flavots thats it? Any in the back? The store keep ran opening three more boxes dumping in the bag. She stock piled on junk food. You need to leave that mess alone.
