A COLD YET BEAUTIFUL RELATIONSHIP (QINTER)

Chapter 1

Our story begins with a four year old Qibli walking with his adoptive mother: Thorn. They were currently visiting one of Thorn's friends in the Icewing kingdom and Qibli had the choice of going with his mother or staying, he chose to go to the Ice-kingdom.

Qibli: Mama, who is this friend we're visiting?

Thorn: She's the former princess of the Sandwings, Blaze is her name. I take that you've heard of her?

Qibli nods, everyone in the Desert knew of the only surviving heir of the Sandwings. Blaze was the nicest and most forgiving of her sisters that's why a large majority of the Sandwings joined her during the war. 

Thorn: Good because we'll be visiting her and her newly wed mate: Queen Glacier, she has a nephew about your age. I think you two will become great friends.

Qibli smiled at his mother, he loved making new friends even if they were from different tribes. They arrive to the Ice-palace and saw Blaze and Glacier waiting for them and next to them was a Icewing dragonet the same age as Qibli, as they got closer Qibli could see that the Icewing dragonet was asleep with a bit of drool hanging from their mouth making him giggle.

Blaze: Thorn, it's great to see you again.

Thorn: You too, Blaze. Greetings Queen Glacier.

Glacier: No need to be so formal, Thorn. I see you've brought your dragonet.

Glacier looks at Qibli sizing him up before nodding in approval then introducing her nephew.

Glacier: And this is my nephew, Prince Winter... who is asleep.

Blaze: I told it was too early to wake him up.

Glacier rolls her eyes then shook Winter awake and wiped the drool from his mouth. Winter releases one of the cutest yawns Qibli has ever heard and rubbed his eyes.

Glacier: Winter meet Thorn and her dragonet.

Winter: Hello I'm (Yawn)... I'm Winter, Queen Glacier's nephew.

Thorn: Nice to meet you Winter. This is Qibli, I hope you two become good friends.

Winter looks at Qibli and gave him a small smile while Qibli gives him, his best smile. Winter blushed a little as he thought that Qibli's smile made him look cute. 

Glacier: Now Winter, why don't you two go and play in your room while we grown ups attend to some business.

Winter nods then guides Qibli to his room, once there they both grab a stuffed toy and played with each other. Winter would ask Qibli question about his life and Qibli would do the same, as they played around Qibli saw a painting of Winter and four other dragons on the wall.

Qibli: Hey Winter, who are they?

Winter looked at the painting then stood up and walked over to it, Qibli asks him what he was doing but Winter didn't respond instead he grabbed the painting and started rip it apart. Qibli shocked by this grabs Winter and drags him away from the destroyed painting.

Qibli: Winter! What was that!?!

Winter looks at Qibli and falls to his knees, he burst into tears and Qibli could only stare at him in shock.

Winter: P-please I don't want to be with them! Don't leave me with them!

Qibli wraps his wings around Winter and allowed him to cry on his shoulder, once calmed down Winter tells Qibli about all the abuse his family had done to him and that he was afraid to anyone about it. Qibli mad at Winter's family promises to one day to free him from his abusive family.
