I hummed softly , sitting in a chair beside the guest bed . The Dragon Queen lady, Nicole, was stretched out on it . Getting her out of her armor had bean a pain in the ass, but worth it . Now she was laying on the bed , sleeping. She had a great body , but her armor intrigued me . It was almost like a powered military suit but.... There was no power source . I fiddled with it a little but learned nothing.
"Uh.... Hmmm....." The noises were cute , but that meant that Nicole was waking.
" Welcome back to the world of the living ." I said mildly as she sat up
" Who are you." She demanded .
" I'm Draven, and your presently in my sisters house . " I replied. Her eyes widened at my name.
" A child of the shadows ?" She asked . Her eyes started with a hint of fear, then anger filled them as she lept from the bed , her hands going for my throat.
" Hey, stop!" I exclaimed as I hopped back away from her. Just before her hands closed around my neck, they froze.
" What....the pendant! You have my necklace!" She shouted her hands frozen just a few centimeters from my throat .
"Wait.... It's yours?" I said, dumbstruck .
"Yes, now give it back!" She snapped .
" I want something from you first." I said .
"Your a typical male aren't you. Just because a woman is-"
"A promise ."
"What?" Her eyebrows rose.
" Promise me that if I return this, you will not harm my family . Swear to me on your title as Dragon Queen." Nicole looked taken aback by what I asked . " Why would I harm them?" She asked.
" I saw the look in your eyes . People do stupid shit when they are scared ." She nodded. I'm guessing she has seen as much herself.  She closed her eyes and began to mutter something in another language. I understood snatches of what I heard somehow. Something about dragons, her oath, family, and protection.
" There, it is done, shadow child ." She said , and I handed back her necklace . She took it , and instantly vanished ,the necklace falling through thin air. I caught it, and the second I did I could hear cursing in that same language.
' It seems I can't even touch it. However , my oath stands. The dragons will protect your family , from darkness as well as myself. ' Nicole's voice sounded in my head.
" So, what now ?" I asked.
' Well, my oath only protects your family , and I feel like we are linked . I would hate to say this but...... The owner of my necklace commands my soul. So.... I am yours , Lord.'
