Chapter 11: Alliance Between Two Strangers
The wrath of the young dragon, whose instinct and reason are not yet distinct, is sometimes more destructive than the adult as he has nothing to hold back.
How would you feel if you get dumped by someone you are starting to form an attachment to? The little child was still too young to bear the feeling of betrayal.
Luckily, Noah was not too harsh on him. She did keep trying to send him somewhere, but she always says, ‘Go to a better place than here.’ She even told the little one to live with him for the time being.
“For the time being…”
However, the condition is only effective temporarily. It can be undone again at any time.
If she dumps me again, I’ll kill her. I don’t want to. Noah told me not to. The child stared at the man who was searching for him.
Leonard flinched at his penetrating gaze. It wasn’t a look for a three-year-old; his eyes were bloody red, containing no emotion.
“Are you curious about who I am?”
“Will you tell me if I say I am?”
“No. Noah told me I shouldn’t be caught by anyone. Noah told me to go unnoticed.”
Suddenly, the child muttered to himself in a very serious face. “But Noah said I shouldn’t kill people without permission…”
Leonard was sure to hear that. Mortified, he froze momentarily. What would you expect? It’s a dragon for pete’s sake! I must take him away from Eleonora Asil.
The child grinned and spread his arms. “Then, mister, why don’t you make a deal with me?”
Leonard reluctantly held the child in his arms. The child leaned onto him and whispered in his ear. “Don’t let Noah abandon me. Then I won’t have any trouble and be quiet…”
“.…”
“Mister Uncle knows who I am, so it will be easy to help me. Right?”
Of course, the baby dragon’s personality appeared entirely different than when he is with Noah. The witch despised the man in front of him, and who she hates, he hates too.
