Rising of the Dragons
The Red Dragon Clan was born out of hate. It was the hatred that the mix-blood had felt for the pure when their families were torn from them, when they were hunted down as if they were beast. The hatred had fueled their desire for vengeance, and few were able to break free from the flames of anger.
For years, the Red Dragon had trained. They had pushed their limits for this moment in history. This moment in which all wrongs shall be justified. This moment where the Qing dynasty shall fall.
The edge of war is drawing near. All plans have been formatted and warrior ready for battle. All calculations were made, and all actions shall be carried out to perfection. There is nothing that stands in their way. Especially when the Qing forces are not as great as theirs.
The alliance was a failure when the Qing was unable to deliver Princess Qian's hand to the Hongs. Of course, there was a little chance that the alliance could be made when Anna, the second in command, had personally see to it. So thus, this is the moment.
Milky Way Lovers
I lay securely by the side of Huan, basking in his warmth. I feel safe, despite the mix emotions that had been surfacing ever since I met him again. I didn't know what to think of my current position. I know he was an enemy, but that doesn't stop me from wanting him. I know he will eventually be my death, but that doesn't kept me away. I know that this is wrong, he and I, but that doesn't stop me from loving him. Conflicted, I snuggled closer to him.
He shifted slightly, and cracked an eye open. "Is something the matter?"
I shake my head. "I am just confused."
"About what?"
"About us,"
He sat up, and brought me onto his lap. Pressing my back against his toned chest, he asked, "What about us?"
"What are we?" I pondered. "Are we lovers?"
"Do you want us to be?" he said, "I know that my heart belongs to you,"
"How? We only met once,"
"Love is a strange thing. Perhaps the fate had plan this,"
"How do you know?"
He hugged me softly, "Because for the last ten years my heart beats for you."
I gazed at him lovingly, "My heart also."
He lean down to capture my lips.
Green tea, he tastes like summer's green tea.
I sighed happily.
"Go get some rest," he smoothed. "Tomorrow, I will take you back to camp."
The mentioning of an army camp brought back a startling and horrifying realization. My kingdom!
I grabbed him frightfully, "My brother!"
His eyes widen in realization also.
"Please!" I cried, "You can't! Not my people!"
Huan looked at me sadly. "I…I…" he couldn't find the right words to say.
I sobbed, "No…this can't…please don't…"but I knew even if Huan promise he would not attack my kingdom…his people will never agree.
He cradled me to sleep that night.
