Dragon Ring: A Promise [Part 2 of Dragon Key from 8.22.16 Drabble]

How? How will I tell him things he already knows? Paano ko nga ba sasabihin ang isang bagay na alam na niya at lahat ng tao...na alam na ng katawan ko bago pa mapagtanto ng isip ko?

Maine sighs and looks at the view on her balcony. She's at her room on the top of the palace. Her father, Boss King was currently out on the palace ground and was watching Alden while he's on training to be a full-fledge Dragon Knight or in his case, a Dragon Prince, because that what she is. A Dragon Princess, her status is linked to his. They are one and the same. The dragon key that has awakened a few months ago made sure of that.

Yung dati nag-jo-joke lang ako na gusto kong maging dragon, tapos totoo pala. Sana lang matandaan ko kung sino nagbigay ng dragon key na yun at nang matanong siya kung paanong nangyari ito?

Even in this world, I'm link to Alden as if it was already pre-ordained. Kaya tuloy, kahit batid ko ang laman ng puso ko, di pa rin mapigilan ng isip ko na magdahan-dahan. To make sure that this is what I want. That this is what he wants.

Naalala tuloy niya ng magtapat si Alden sa kanya, isang buwan matapos silang makarating roon.

"Maine, di ka pa man dragon," tumitig ito sa mga mata niyang naging kulay berde na mula ng magising ang dragon sa katawan niya "kahit wala pa man ang dragon key para magpatunay ng connection natin. Sigurado na ako, noon pa man," hinawakan nito ang kamay niya, "Mahal kita. Nagbago ang mundo ko mula ng makilala ka, besides being a dragon, of course," ngumiti ito at kumindat saglit, na nagpahalakhak sa kanya, "Madami akong nalaman at lalong minahal sa sarili ko at higit na sa iyo...kaya noon din na-realize ko. Sigurado na ako. Mahal kita at di iyon magbabago. Mahal mo rin ba ako?"

Natigil ang pagbabalik tanaw ni Maine ng may kumatok sa kanyang silid. Pumasok siya mula sa balcony, lumapit sa tapat ng pinto at nagbigay ng pahintulot. "Maaari kang pumasok"

Bumukas ang pinto. Tumambad doon si Alden, nakasuot ng warrior armor, bahagyang magulo ang buhok nito. Tumitig sa kanya ang binata. "There was a disturbance at the edge of your kingdom's boundary. Your father and I decided to check it. Pumunta ako dito para ipaalam sa iyo mismo sakaling hanapin mo ako" umangat ang isang kilay nito at ngumiti, "Alam mo naman dito, di uso cellphone dito. Di mo ako matatawagan...I will not be one call away here"

Natawa si Maine at tumango. Lumapit siya sa binata. Hindi ito nagtangkang pumasok sa silid niya bilang paggalang sa tradition ng lugar na iyon. It'll not look good if a princess is found in a room alone with a man, even though that man is her man. Her knight. Her prince.

Huminga siya ng malalim. Sa oras na iyon, nagkasundo na ang isip at puso niya. This man has already captured everything of her. Her heart. Her mind. Her very being and she will gladly be his.

Mula sa kanyang leeg ay nakasabit ang dragon key na ibinigay sa kanya ng isang fan, na naging dahilan para magising ang kanyang tunay na katauhan at nagdala sa kanila sa mundong iyon, ang key na ngayon ay muli na namang kumikinang ang mga mata, dahil batid na nito ang kanyang napagdesisyunan. Tila ba nagbubunyi ang bagay na iyon sa higit pang pagbubuklod ng nagma-may-ari nito. Tinanggal ito ni Maine sa kanyang leeg at inabot kay Alden.

Nagliwanag ang dragon key at nag-ibang anyo. Naging silver ring iyon na may hugis pa rin ng dragon at ngayon ay nakasuot na sa kaliwang palasing-singan ni Alden.

Nagulat si Alden, tumingin sa singsing at sa mga mata niya, "Maine, anong---" bago pa nito maipagpatuloy ang sasabihin ay dinampian na niya ito ng isang halik sa labi.

She touches his lower lip and said. "Ang sagot ko sa tanong mo" She inclined her head a little, grin and continues, "Mahal din kita" She put her hands on top of his chest and despite the armor he wears, she could swear that the she felt his quick heartbeats. The effect of her answer.

And just like magic, Alden's smiles seem to make his face glow. He grinned and hugged her close. He kissed her cheeks then the top of her head before pulling away.

"I love you" he said with all sincerity and happiness. He lowers his lips to kiss her forehead, her eyelids, and the tip of her nose and finally, her lips. That kissed that says all his feelings for her. She answered back without hesitation. So when they parted, both their eyes is smiling and the dragon key, now a dragon ring on Alden's finger, with its green eyes glowing, they whispered again together, "I love you"

Maine then stepped back, touch Alden's cheek, his dimple showing, as she said, "Come back to me and be safe"

He nodded. "Always"
