CHAPTER 216

​​

Jade yelped a little when she felt the tip of his tongue poke at the centre of her palm before relaxing.

They did this for some seconds more and no longer was Jade as tensed up as before. This time she had more courage and indeed, did the needful.

Without further ado, she let her palm slide up his head till she got to her destination, an inch away from the horn on his head.

Her eyes looked back at his, as though she was seeking a certain kind of permission not yet known and when he blinked once, she took that as her go ahead and then…

She touched it.

It was not like any feeling he had ever felt before and aside from having his mother caress it when he was younger before her passing, Xander had never had any lady, much less a human touching his horn.

This was the first time ever in history for a human to be mated to the dragon lord and even worst or best, touch and see him that way. Yet there was no form of fear in her eyes, instead, she embraced the man she saw with passion and joy, taking in all that he was.

Jade let her hand slide up the length of the velvety horn enjoying the feeling it brought her. Although strong, yet it had a softness that betrayed its look, giving one a shocking discovery of what it was.

The more she touched it, the more she wanted to keep on caressing it and play with it until he stopped her. Nevertheless, her lover did not. He never wanted to rake away that joy and feeling from her and even it seemed embarrassing to a larger extent, he loved it and allowed her still.

Meanwhile, Jade had completely forgotten about every other thing, especially the fact that where all of these were actually taking place was far in the skies.

Instead of bothering or worrying about any of that other stuff, all she could put her mind to think of was the beauty and softness for a protrusion of the body that should feel or be stronger.

In the same vein, in her distracted frame of mind, Xander decided to stun her and bring her back to reality. Without saying anything, he increased the speed to which he uses to fly up and went faster with her still in his arms.

Regardless of this, she wasn't scared. It was like she trusted him with her life and so she allowed him to take the reins of it while she continued fascinating herself with her mind and hands.

After flying for some time, Xander finally paused when he was so sure he had flown at a considerable height.

"Hold on tight, love," he said in a whisper to her as he admired her beauty for a second before looking down below them.

Taking one deep breath, Xander moved, diving down in full force and taking her with him with his hands wrapped around her waist and back securely.

"AAAAAHHHHH!" Jade who had least expected for him to do that all of a sudden, screamed at the top of her lungs.

It was now it dawned on her that her lover had been flying and taking her so high.

At first, when it happened, she shut her eyes involuntarily, wrapping her hands over his shoulders and holding him strongly against herself.

He went down, not bothering to stop for anything even after she stopped screaming and just let her eyes remain close.

"Open your eyes babe. I want you to see it. You wished you could fly away, here is that opportunity. Open your heart, mind and soul and actually fly away."

Hearing his words of motivation, Jade actually opened her eyes. She looked at him, her face was so close to his throat. She could see how his dam's apple bubbled up and down before looking to the side and noticing how his wings tucked at his side and how fine they were with their black and red colour.

"Wait… Wings?' Jade asked in her mind.

Her eyes widened and she strained her neck to see some more. Xander chuckled in his heart at her bewilderment. Just to help lessen her curiosity, he spread his wings out, giving her a clearer view of him in his natural form.

Jade swallowed loudly. It was really a lovely sight to behold and one she knew she would never get tired of. After all her fascination, Jade decided to look down and throw her fear away.

A very bad decision she had made because the second she did, she regretted it. Right before her eyes, Jade saw how fast they were approaching the water with their heads.

She never told him she wanted to swim. All she said was that she wished she could fly. So why then…

"Xan…" her small voice called out but he never responded, making her feel as though it was because they were flying and he could not hear her.

"Xan, I… we are going deep for the water, I never said I wanted to swim.

"You didn't say so, but you will."

"What! Hell no!"

"Hold on tight dear and stick out your hands. I am taking us for a ride."

That was Xander's last command and he continued. Just when their head was about breaking the first layer of the water, Jade closed her eyes and clutched his chest tighter.

However, two seconds passed and she still had not made contact. Five more seconds and the same thing. Finally, she opened her eyes again, only to see that he passed it, flying so low close to the surface of the water, long enough for her to see the lovely view.

"Oh my God!"

She closed her lips and really did as he suggested before bringing out her hand so she could touch the water.

SPLASH!

"Hahaha hahaha…."
