Chapter 13

With that they both enter the car and drive away.

On the car ride over Leah asks Drake, "What should I tell them? I mean, should I tell them everything or just part of it?"

"Leah, they are your family and close friends of course you should tell them. But, it might be best to keep some of it to yourself…mainly what I told you of why you should postpone the wedding but moreover to the attack and how we are friends. IT would probably be best if you don't tell them that I'm how you get all you information and stuff like that."

"Yeah, you're right that would not be good." Leah sighs while looking at the passing scenery.

Meanwhile in the other car, Nathan and Harry are arguing.

"You know that this is not good! For him, to have interrupted the wedding and for Leah to have listened to him. It's horrible…" Harry says while trying to stay calm.

"I know I still can't believe she would side with him. Ughh now he's going to be everywhere… it's so annoying for this to happen I knew he was the cause to all my trouble. Damn dragons, they are so pesky when you finally think you've got rid of one it comes back." Nate grumbles, while speeding up.

"Nate, I've known Leah for a while now and there must be a good reason as to why she would trust him. I mean even though I didn't know about him and I'm her best friend it is kinda suspicious but I believe we must trust her one this one." Adrianna says.

"Wait a minute even you didn't know about him? What is Leah thinking it's not that I don't trust her it's him and his evasive ways. Ever since we were little he would take things from me…"

"Nate, that sounds like a grudge. Anyway you are going to be marrying Leah and trust is something you both should have. So let's listen to what they have to say and go from there."

"When did you get so smart?" Nate replies.

"Enough you two, we're here." Caroline says, as the car is coming to a stop. As she exits the car she can't help but wonder why Drake of all people was with Leah. When enter the hotel they are led by the staff into one of the conference rooms, as they enter however they notice that the room is empty.

"That's strange were could they be? Didn't they leave before us? OMG he didn't kidnap her did he?" Adrianna starts.

Meanwhile Leah and Drake had been on their way to the hotel when Leah shouts, "STOP THE CAR!"

The car stops with a screech. Drake turns towards Leah and shouts, "What the hell is your problem Edwards! You could have killed us!"

"Sorry Drake but I just remembered something. Didn't you say that it was the rebels that we are against?"

"Yeah I did, why? "

"Does that also mean that the elves have chosen their side as well or are they still playing Switzerland?"

"No, my sources told me that the elves will side with us when the time comes and anyone against the decision will face consequences."

"Oh, well that's good to know." Leah says smiling, "But, that is not the only reason why I stopped the car. Can we stop by a store real quick?"

"NOW! You want to go shopping NOW?"

"No, it's just I don't want to show up in my wedding dress…I know it might look bad but this thing is hard to move in and I really need to get out of it." Leah whines while giving him the puppy dog eyes.

"Fine, but if they kill me because we are late, it's on you." Drake mutters, with a glare.

"Yeah, yeah whatever…just drive." As they make their pit stop many people turn towards to look at them. As Leah rushes into the store she grabs a pair of jeans and a shirt along with some shoes and goes to the cash. Drake asks, "You're not going to try them on?"

"If we had more time I would. "Leah snaps. Turning towards the lady at the cash she asks "How much?"

"That will be $46.34 dollars madam." The clerk says with a smile. "Ah young love…running away from your wedding dear? "

"Umm, no just postponing it for a few days, there was an accident…"

"Oh my, that's not good dear. I hope everything works out for you."

"Thank you, you can keep the change. We really have to be going." Drake says throwing down some money and dragging a speechless Leah out of the store. "Oh my god can't you move we are already late, by now they probably think that I kidnapped you or something."

"Oh shit! Yeah let's go." Leah says completely forgetting she was just about to lecture Drake on his manners and jumps into the back of the car to get changed.

"You know, I'm getting quite a view from up here…"Drake mentions with a smirk on his face and waggling his eyebrows.

"Shut it. We have to be there like now." As Drake is waving through traffic, Leah finishes getting dressed and moves towards the front.

"Geez, Leah you could have stayed in the back." Drake says when Leah's butt gets in his face.

"I thought that you liked the view?"

"Haha, oh look we're here. Time for –"

"Cut it out." Leah says while slapping him, "It won't be that bad…."

"Yeah well your fiancé hates me and I think that right now the rest of your family does too…"

"Stop being such a drama queen, let's get the show on the road." As the exit the car and head towards the conference room the duo both increasing get nervous. Knowing that the next few minutes would be very stressful and aggravating.

Once they enter the room they both notice that everyone is already sitting down looking anxious. All of their heads snap towards the door, and they breathe out a sigh of relief upon seeing Leah.

"Hello, everyone sorry for the wait. We had something to do before we got here…"Leah starts with a tense smile on her face.

"Now before anyone says anything, I know this might seem strange but Drake it my friend and I have complete trust in him and what he tells me."

"Do you know that he is a-"

"Dragon, yes I know and that does not matter. And I'm sorry to say this but neither does your distrust in him either Nate. He stopped the wedding because we were going to be under attack as soon as the wedding had finished. No he isn't working with the rebels but he does have his sources and that is where we are going to leave it. The wedding as I mentioned before will be postponed till the beginning of the new month and until then we need a plan. A plan to stop the rebels…."

"Do you know if the elves be with them? Or are they still neutral?" Harry asks.

"As far as we know the elves are still not taking sides but will be willing to if there is trust and a union formed between the dragons. Drake has offered his word and-"

"What can Drake do? Leah don't you think that this is suspicious just before our wedding?"

"No Nate and enough. Drake's loyalty will not be questioned any further is that understood?"

"Yes…"Nate answers grudging while looking at Drake who is smiling, not paying any attention to them Leah continues.

"Drake is willing to have this union with us and as long as we all agree that they dragons are safe there are no more worries…"

End Flashback

"And blah, blah blah Leah saves the day as usual and the managed to hold the wedding and what not and Drake became a friend, who Nate doesn't hate as much anymore. They did get married and it was beautiful but fast." Adrianna finishes with a bored voice.

"What a minute did you say dad?" Seth asks Adrianna and when she freezes up he turns towards me. "Dad? Leah what's she talking about? Dad's dead. "

Oh no, I forgot Seth was here. Damn this is not good at all.
