The Dragon Prince

What the Future Holds

Alyssa

Two Years Later

It's been two years since we brought down my father. The death toll was high, and the humans were still trying to understand why the eruptions stopped so quickly. And it's better if it stays that way. "Rauru, are you and your father ready to go?"

Oh, I forgot to tell you guys, I have a son. His name is Rauru Adam Callahan, and he was named after the first King of Varrfarrinn. Like his father, Rauru is a white dragon.

"Relax, honey, we're good to go. You took amazing," Vincent said, then kissed me.

"Vincent, we don't have time for this, do we?" I said.

"What's wrong with being late, Rauru is in the living room playing on my phone," Vincent pecked my cheek.

"Oh no, keep it in your pants for a few hours. I still haven't recovered from Rauru's birth. I still remember his christening, and I wonder why only white dragons get that blessing; I can't believe that you insisted on it,"

"I still can't believe that you would deny our child's ancestral blessing, that christening was his moral compass for good; who knows what evils lurk after we defeated your father," Vincent said. "Come on, let's get Rauru,"

We took a portal to Alexandria's house in Africa. Vincent and I left the castle to travel the world and check on the kingdoms. "Hey, guys. Hello Rauru," Alexandria said.

"Hi, Aunt Alex," Rauru smiled.

"It's about time you guys showed up, having trouble getting my nephew ready?" Alexandria joked.

"Yeah, Rauru was having trouble getting that buttoned shirt on," I said. "So where are they?"

Alexandria guided us to the nursery, where Alexandria's husband held their child.

"Honey, there here," Alex said.

"Hey, come in," Killian said. Alexandria got her second chance at love. His name is Killian Callahan. He took our last name when he married Alexandria.

"Oh my god! He's beautiful!" I said in awe.

"Congratulation Alex, I'm happy for you," Vincent said.

"I can't believe you are married and have a baby now. Rauru now has a baby cousin,"

"I know, time flies," Killian said while looking at my nephew.

"So how's life treating you here in Africa?" Vincent asked.

"Honestly, it's so damn hot," Alexandria groaned.

"Langange honey," Killan gave Alex a look.

"What? He can't understand what I'm saying, but I'll be more careful," Alex said.

"Want to hold him, Alyssa?" Killian asked me.

"Of course," Killian gave me his son to hold in my arm.

"Any word on Audrey?" Alexandria asked Vincent.

"Audrey and Jacob have their hands full, and they've finally finished all the reconstruction efforts in Varrfarrinn. There'll be a big party next weekend to celebrate," Vincent said.

"Give Audrey my best. We'd love to come, but Killian and I are drowning in work helping Megan run the African kingdom. Our parents made it look easy to run a kingdom," Alex laughed.

"That's an understatment," I said. "So have you decided on a name yet?"

"We have. Meet Isidoro Zayne Callahan. I would've named Isabella if I had a girl, but close enough," Alex said.
