Return of the Dragon Queen
In a world where dragons rule the skies and magic pulses through every heartbeat, the spirit of Queen Zenobia endures. Centuries ago, she sacrificed her life to imprison the dark sorcerer Kal. Now she is reborn as Princess Elena Beaufort, who is unaware of her formidable powers and destiny. As shadows of the past stir and long-hidden truths surface, Elena finds herself thrust into a struggle that could determine the fate of her realm. With allies at her side and enemies lurking in the shadows, Elena must navigate a treacherous path of danger, betrayal, and unexpected love. Will she uncover her true identity in time to protect her loved ones and complete Zenobia's unfinished battle? ---- "A Queen will always turn pain into power" I am ruthless against my enemy, but I wouldn't let anyone dear to me suffer this time. I swore to the heavens, no matter how many lifetimes passes by I will come back to protect my people and my love. I will not let him face the death for me, this time I will be the one protecting him. --- “Lea please….” Liam asked looking at the silent Lea. “Why can’t you be in a relationship with me?” Lea blurted out unconsciously. “Be…Because…I..” Liam stammered. “It's okay you don’t have to answer me,” Lea said and then added, “It's not like I can be in a relationship with you as well at the moment ”. This time it was Liam who was confused by her words and asked “But why?”. “Because I am already engaged to someone else”. ----- "The Return of the Dragon Queen" invites you to embark on an journey of magic, power, and destiny, where the past and present collide in a battle for the future. Join Elena as she unravels the mysteries of her reincarnated soul and faces a destiny that will test the limits of her courage and heart.
The actual reason why Liam is trying to find out Lea's truth
"Thinking over what you said, it does sound like there's some truth to your words. But didn't Master Yi say that he checked Lea by inserting his spiritual energy into her body and didn't find any trace of power?"
"He did, and I also checked myself without alerting Lea but didn't find any traces of power inside her. That's why I've been cooped up in the library for the past few days, trying to find if there are any artifacts or spells that can block detection when checked with spiritual energy, but I haven't found anything yet."
"You should have spoken to Sharen, she knows more about artifacts than anyone else among us."
"I did try, but she's been busy with something these past few days. I can hardly see her or Alex in the palace."
"Yeah, that's true. Even I noticed. I don't know what those two are up to these days. Anyway, don't worry, we'll figure out something," Rayan said, patting Liam's shoulder. Then, after a moment, he added, "By the way, what's happening between you and Lea these days? You both seem a bit too cozy."
Liam swallowed nervously and avoided eye contact.
"Liam?" Rayan spoke in a stressed tone.
"We're together..."
"WHAT? Are you out of your mind? You—"
"Before you say anything more, listen to me."
"What is there to listen to?"
"Though we're together, it's temporary, until she leaves. It's something we decided together. We both like each other but can't be together due to our own reasons so we thought we'd enjoy this dream for a few days, keeping all other things aside, and then go our separate ways once the time comes."
"And you think it's that easy? You can move on after tasting the fruit of love?"
Liam bent his head, sadness apparent on his face.
"I don't know what to tell you, brother... On one side, you're doubting her identity, and on the other, you've fallen head over heels for her."
Liam let out a weak, self-mocking laugh. "Why do you think I'm trying to find the truth, Rayan?"
Rayan became stiff, completely shocked, and pointed his index finger at Liam. "You..."
Liam gave a light smile in return. "I don't want to lose her, man. This is the first time I've felt something like this, and I want to try my best to hold on to it before I have to let it go.
I might succeed," Liam said as he turned back to look at Rayan and continued,
"Anyway, what is there to be scared about? If what I suspect is true and it is something Aunt Beth knows about and she's supporting Lea, it can't be bad, right?"
Rayan sighed again. "I just hope you're right, brother. I don't want to see you heartbroken later."
Liam nodded. "I hope so too..."
