Chapter 6

"Drakon! Darling! Oh, what have you done?" I sighed out in frustration as feathers of the imported cushions floated down around the slashes in the futon mattresses. Exposing the stuffing, blood splatted up the walls. The cupboard doors were hanging off the hinges. It almost looks like a coop of chickens have been slaughtered. Why did she do this to me? I thought she would be so excited, clearly not. "Why would you do this Drakon? I thought you would be so happy."

"Where is Laxus." She snarled out, her eyes flicking to mine her look burning with hate. Oh, I thought she would be so happy.

"He is gone now Darling, I freed you from him! He forced you to marry him, he forced you to nearly kill me." I beamed and opened my arms out for a hug. Surely, she wants to hug her Natsu, give her Natsu some affection? I stepped forward over the missing chunks of mattress and blooded feathers. A deep snarl tore through the air, warning me to stay away. "Oh darling, don't do that!" I sighed and whimpered out gently. I stopped in my tracks. "I will leave you here for a little longer then my Drakon hopefully you will come to your senses and realise you're not going to leave here, you're not going to disappear again. I won't let you." I threw that stupid ring he was supposed to wear at her for proof he was gone. I growled back and I felt my irritation building I don't want to give it to her but I know she won't believe me otherwise. I can't let myself get the better of this… Stay calm. I slammed the door aggressively and couldn't help but let a roar of anger rumble through the house.

She will grow to love me I know she will.

(y/n)

I couldn't help but cry as soon as he left the room I was destroyed. Laxus couldn't be dead? Surely he is lying? I don't want to believe it. I grabbed the ring and pressed it to my lips. My Laxus, he couldn't really be dead?

One month later

The days were in and out, nothing changed much. I was fed on intervals. I didn't want to eat but if I didn't Natsu would come in and sit with me till I ate, where I didn't want to have him near me, I would wolf it down and promptly throw it up till he clocked on and started sitting with me for 3 hours after. Trying and failing to make conversation. I wasn't in the right frame of mind to talk let alone look at that creature. He had matured massively. His shoulders had bulked out, his arms were nothing but muscle. He had grown much taller not as tall as Laxus was but still, his pink fucking hair was had grown long and unruly his jaw chiselled along with every muscle on his body. His aura radiated with power, he is strong… I hate him so much. The handle on the door slowly started to turn little by little, god he is coming back again.

"Drakon darling! Would you like to see the village I build for us? For our family?" I didn't answer. I haven't spoken a word since being take here. "Come along darling!" I growled low as he came closer to touch me. "Oh drakon please don't growl at me like that." He sighed and wrapped his hand slowly around my upper arm. I wanted to regurgitate at his touch, it sent heat all through my body. A sharp pleasurable feeling shot through my chest. I gasped and collapsed against the ground. Why is this happening now… "Darling! What's wrong – What's that smell?" He bared his fangs his eyes narrowing. He dipped his nose low to my neck and inhaled my smell, my body tingled with excitement as he came closer. I don't want this, I don't want him to be the one. No please don't. Another wave hit me as his lips brushed my skin, sending me crumpled to the floor my head spinning as my primitive side took over, rolling on its back to the dominate male looming over the top of me. My body reacted the way I didn't want it too. Why for fuck sake! I gasped in a breath as the feeling receded back down. Natsu came down from his high from the smell I was letting off.

"Darling… I'm sorry I don't know what came over me there… I'll get the doctor, stay here Drakon." He panicked and sprinted out of the room. No, this can't be happening now! Out of all people in the world it had to be with this fucking person I was stuck with. I hate this fucking world, I hate this fucking place, I want to go home, I want to go to Laxus!

"My darling! Asa is here, she will help you, I will wait downstairs shout if you want me and I will be by your side in an instant my Drakon." With that he left, I was finally without a shadow for what felt like a long time. My glare fell to the woman standing at the door. She looked familiar… No it can't be?

"Yes, my Queen, it is me. You saved us from the wicked king before our now beloved ruler… You and the other saved us all!"

"You have grown up…" I whispered and softened my glare to a gaze.

"You never came back, King Natsu says the man you were with hurt you, kidnapped you. He almost died trying to protect yo-" "Don't speak of Laxus in that way. He was not the one who kidnapped and abused me." I snarled baring my fangs at Asa. Standing on all fours like a wild animal ready to attack.

"I'm sorry my queen." She whimpered and bowed low. I sighed out and sank back into the shadows of the room. "It's not your fault, you have been told lies. Laxus was a kind man, he was a wonderful person he was to marry me. We were to be happy, we were to grow old, we were to die together." My voice cracked, and I coughed away the tears. My body convulsed again, releasing wave after wave of strangled moans and desperate want.

"My queen, you are in heat." Asa whispered her mouth open in shock.

"Please Asa I'm begging you, give me something to stop this!" I cried tears flooding down my face. "I don't want this. I really don't want this, he will breed me till he can go no more and my body won't stop him."

"I don't have anything to stop the heat. I can make something for the morning after?" She whispered quickly, as Natsu charged through the door.

"What's wrong with her Asa?!" He looked at me his nose filling with the smell of my heat. Realisation sunk into him as it clicked. His pupils turned into slits and his fangs elongated.

"She is in heat isn't she…" His voice rumbled low.

"I wouldn't recommend acting on it Majesty, she is weak –" "get out." "But, Majesty!"

"GET OUT!" Natsu howled and shoved her out of the room. I can't be alone with him, I tried to pull myself away from him. My arms not moving to my command, I dare to look at him. He sank down onto all fours crawling toward me, licking his lips in ecstasy.

"Darling, smells like you haven't been bred before. I'll be gentle I promise." He rumbled low and pulled off his trousers allowing his boner to spring free. My body let out a faint whimper and rolled onto its back, spreading its legs for him to climb between. Please, Gods don't do this.

"Oh (y/n) such a beautiful dragon, beautiful doesn't come close." My throat mewed out quietly as Natsu ran his hands down my stomach. His hands resting above my womb. "You will bare me a child and we will love him forever my darling." I wanted to snarl and snap in hate, I wanted to stick my talons into his flesh and rip him apart. I don't want him to touch me.

"My King! I would really recommend not doing this!" I heard Asa cry through the door as she frantically started knocking on the heavy wooden door.

"Go away!" Natsu snapped toward the door. His hands tracing the outline of my hips, his thumb pressing against the top of my clit.

"Natsu! Please listen to me! You will hurt her! You always said you would never hurt her!" She shouted. Natsu snarled out and threw the door open. "Please Sire! Listen to what I have to say to you. Wait a little longer, she isn't in optimal conditions. I would assume you want to have our queen in her best condition, or do you not lover her enough to not hurt her?" I breathed out in quiet appraisal as she spun his own words around and threw them back at him. Natsu growled low as his eyes returned to normal and fangs slid back behind his lips.

"I need you to do me a favour. You need to take (y/n) and keep her away from me till this passes." He isn't being a complete animal, it took me by surprise and it pissed me off to see that he cared… in his own demented way. Asa bowed and scampered over to me, I hissed out loudly as she picked me up. She apologised and dragged me out of the bed. I felt my body cry out to Natsu as I was dragged passed the large male. Can I just end it all now… please? I placed my feet upon the snow as Asa managed to pull me outside. A bellowing roar erupted from the house as I could hear wood splinter and break. My body let out a stupid fucking cry back. Only increasing the roaring male's frustration. His mate was being taken away during a very delicate period. It's like losing half of you. It was so hard when Laxus and I were together, and I came into heat. I remembered the day Mokorve had to put Laxus in the dungeons, so we wouldn't do anything stupid with one another. The amount of roaring and snarling was insane. It felt like I had lost my soul with him, when he was away from me. Now… I feel nothing. I know he is dead, I can't feel him anymore. I can't feel the ghost of his hands on my hips, I can't remember the sound of his voice. I don't want to bond with Natsu, the dragon inside me… does. I fucking hate that. She has been whispering lately. Telling me how Natsu would be the best option, to allow him to love me. Even if I must pretend to survive this nightmare. I will never love him. I will never care about him. Not like Laxus. It was that or set her free upon him and crush him like the insignificant worm he is. But for that I need to get strong and that may take months.

"Almost here my Queen." Asa pulled the door open to her wooden house.

"Thank you for putting yourself in harm's way for me Asa." I whispered, my energy was waning. She set me down on one of the beds and pulled a blanket over me. She hummed back in response. "Don't tell me you buy into this whole "queen" bullshit." I smirked out as she began to flit around the room fetching hot water and food.

"Well, you see, Natsu built this village back up for us, from nothing. You will have to have a look around when this passes (y/n)."

"Thank fuck you dropped the pleasantries." Retorting quietly to her using my name rather than handed title. "What do you mean he has built the village back up?"

"You remember the last time you were here? -"

"Tried to forget it."

"Well, Natsu rebuilt the houses, rebuilt the farms, rebuilt my practice. He even built that house for you. All of this was done for you. I don't know but I think a man who would build an entirely new village and a beautiful house for his Misses, seems like he can't be too much of a bad guy. He says you deserve the title of Queen so he made you one. He always says you should be an empress but I'm managed to talk him out of conquering the country ~ For you." She turned toward me and placed a cool cloth on my forehead. As I felt a new wave of heat was over me, causing me to curl up in agony, not having a mate here is just causing me pain. I would rather have this than deal with Natsu in rut for the duration of my heat. The waves subsided a little and I could breath again.

"Forgive me (y/n) but could you explain your breading process."

"For us Dragons, we have three monthly cycles. It lasts a week for each. Mates cycles usually fall into sync, if one comes into 'season' it will generally trigger the others. I have triggered Natsu's rut so good luck. If I don't act on my heat within the next three days. It will usually stop. Males become incredibly possessive over their female and will tend to mark them with a bite to the neck. As per… one situation which is a story for another day… But you were right to the fact I wasn't in optimal conditions for breeding. Both health wise and it wasn't the right environment." I rattled off the general rules of dragon heat. I had to work out most of that shit for myself. I couldn't exactly ask Laxus anything.

"So basically keep Natsu away for this week." Asa, passed me a warm crusty roll coated in butter. With I devoured quickly. It was the first time I didn't want to immediately want to regurgitate it. I nodded and pressed my head into the pillow.

"Yes, essentially." I yawned and sank into the bed. I finally was away from him. A peaceful night, without Natsu sitting in the corner watching me. One of the few moments I was actually alone. I need to get away from this place once this stupid heat passes I will find a way out of here. I will be free again. I will visit Laxus grave. I will see everyone again. I will see Feore again. That I promise you.
