“Why are you nervous about this? It is not like we have not shared a bed before.

Golden brown eyes that shined like The sun looked straight through my poor soul, it was true that we had shared a bed before, but that was when we were still kids, and I was nothing more than just a friend. Tonight, we shared a bed as spouses, not as childhood friends.

“You know why I am uneasy; ugh I knew this marriage idea was bad from the jump.”

My face had become as red as a tomato, it can camouflage against his hair if given a chance. The plan to marry The Crown Prince of Uyilleozia was only to protect him from his enemies like a devoted friend from, but he had made it clear that we were going to have a traditional marriage, and divorce was never an option. ‘We are bound to fall in love eventually,’ he had said proudly, as if he was already in love with me.

“I don’t think we should share a bed.”

“On our first night? Zura, did you lose your mind about the two years we have spent apart?

“I don’t trust you to not do something mischievous, though we promised to take this slow, you are quite an impatient rascal.”

Turning red became amazingly easy. Since he had grown a few muscles and became a little bit flirty, well, our unexpected first kiss as a married couple might have contributed greatly.

“Are you going to treat your husband like a pervert? I am hurt you think so slowly of pure and innocent me,” he joked.

But the smirk on his face made me more uneasy, this is not the little boy I used to bully anymore. This is different. man.

“I promise, we will just sleep. tonight, maybe cuddle a bit because it is cold.”

His voice had become so enchanting. It sent a shiver down my spine. When we met, I would stare at his eyes (glared) shamelessly, but now keeping eye contact made me weak to my knees, but I had made my bed. Now it was time to lie on it.

But my nervousness had little to do. with performing my wifely duties, but the secret my family held close to our hearts.

The secret that could turn my sweet husband to a murderous tyrant. How will the dragon crown prince react when he finds out that he has married the dragon’s most hated human.

The cursed human who was cursed when Our ancestors hunted and killed dragons for their jewel-like hearts, if the magic wears off and the mark is exposed. I will not only lose my best friend, but my life as well.
