Episode 17

"Look, what do you think of this one?" Dayana said, showing Gianna some dresses.

"They're all very pretty, but we'll continue later, you have piano lessons and I'm going out, bye," she said goodbye and left.

The young woman slept all night and after breakfast Dayana dragged her to see dresses, but she was able to get away and go to the lake, where she met with Drago every day and he gave her incredible peace.

The young woman lay down on the grass and felt Drago approaching, she jumped up and hugged him.

"Hi little dragon, how are you, I wanted to see you, I missed you." She approached and hugged him, the dragon half closed his eyes and made a slight sound as if asking her what was wrong.

"I'm confused... I want to leave the kingdom," she said, and the dragon snorted in annoyance.

"Don't be like that, I'll come visit you later or you come... I can't stay and if I do it might end badly," she said with a heavy sigh and the dragon made a sound again.

"You see, I'm having feelings for someone and I already know how it's going to end before it happens, I'd rather leave," she said, and he shook his head, then snorted softly, staring at her.

"Don't be nosy, Drago..." This time he roared.

"I'm falling in love with someone, happy?" The snort made her move back by force…

"You should let go of the jealousy, okay, I saw you with a lilac and gray dragon and I'm not saying anything to you." He shook his head, snorting.

"Hey, hey, hey ... I don't want explanations, it's your life, now don't bother me, jealous salamander," he said and sat down with his arms crossed.

The dragon roared and brought his face close to hers, wanting to know more.

"You're all just as gossipy and jealous." Another roar.

"Well, I'll tell you..." she said and smiled mischievously, she stood up and brought her face level with the dragon's and said seriously

"I'm in love with the sexy vampire." A horrible roar came out of him and he spewed water from his mouth enough to knock her backwards.

Gianna was surprised and drowning too, she coughed like crazy over and over again while laughing nonstop.

"You're a very bad salamander, and very ugly," she said, but she couldn't stop laughing, the dragon just moved his head placing it on one side and then the other as if he didn't understand her laughter.

Then to shut her up, he blew smoke in her face.

"No, stop it, salamander, you underdeveloped reptile," she told him.

"Okay, it's a joke, it's not him, but whoever it is you'd act the same." Gianna said laughing and the animal pushes her with his head while she doesn't stop laughing.

The animal roars and looks at her, narrowing its eyes, it wants to know.

"Well, fine, I'll tell you, but don't roar at anyone, okay. I think I have feelings for..." She sighs in defeat.

"I'm so bad, spending time with you has affected me because I like another grumpy one, yes huge salamander I'm starting to like Marcus a lot," she says as he looks at her, his breath hitting her face and she hugs him or at least his head.

The dragon barks at her face and snorts softly, she continues to sigh.

"You see, that's why I have to go, I've already seen this story and I know how it ends, me rejected and betrayed," she says and he roars.

"You defend him because he's not the vampire, right, but I know how it's going to end, today I'm going to a party and then I'm going." The dragon shakes his head.

"I have to do it for my own good... How I wish you could talk to me, big guy." The dragon lay down for her to get on and began to fly with her, then he took her to some huge caves where they looked like crystal, the few lights that entered made several rainbows and then after passing through a part where there was only water came out to a wonderful place.

It was like a paradise, crystal clear water, flowers with such vivid colors that they seemed artificial, beautiful sounds of birds, waterfalls and every little animal in the place.

The dragon made her get off and began to release water, fire and ice to make a show just for her.

The dragon wanted to make her feel better and he succeeded, she was delighted with everything, then the dragon lay down beside her, she watched the sky and breathed an infinite peace.

"You are so amazing, you would never hurt me, would you beautiful dragon" the animal threw water and she just laughed.

When it was darker they returned to the castle, she kissed him on the face and ran to her room, she had to change, she forgot to have lunch and dinner.

"Where were you Gianna?" Maximo asked.

"I'm sorry I was late," she told him.

"Just come eat or you won't go out with the guys." She followed him and after eating she got changed, searched among the dresses that Dayana was showing her and listened to her complaints for not arriving early, once they were ready, they both went downstairs.

Waiting downstairs were Maximo, Marlon, Dario, Marcus, Nael, Lucius, and Marck.

Lucios

"Image of well-dressed man"

Marck

"Image of well-dressed man"

Nael.

"Image of well-dressed man"

Everyone's eyes were on them.

"Woo, what unique beauties my eyes see," Dario exclaimed.

"Yes, I'm definitely going to have to bring guards to the party, they're too beautiful," Marlon said.

"They are beautiful and unique, but tonight they are dazzling," said Nael.

"Wow, beautiful is not a word that does them justice," said Marck.

"By the ancient gods I'm seeing visions, before my eyes two beautiful goddesses" said Lucius.

"The two princesses of the kingdom are divine..." Maximo said.

"Well, come on, walk... Girls you are simply beautiful, as I am the oldest, each one take one of my arms," he said and they did so despite the protests of their brothers.

Everyone got into the car and minutes later they were at the party, a very beautiful place, in a mansion, the dim light and the gold and red decoration, there were many young people, almost the entire kingdom present.

They all entered and walked through the large mansion, people were watching the princes and their trusted men, as their friends were like the right hand of the king and now they would be Marcus'.

The party went on, many people greeted the princes, both men and women approached, but they never left the girls alone.

"We can dance, Princess," Marck asked Dayana, the others were dancing with some friends of Dayana and theirs.

"We can dance, Princess Gianna..." Prince Marcus said, holding out his hand, and she accepted.

They both went to the dance floor, Marcus took her by the waist and they began to dance, the young woman was the envy of all and Marcus was too, Gianna's eyes went everywhere but his and he found it amusing.

"Gianna, you look beautiful tonight." She looked at him for a moment and then looked away.

"Thank you, Prince." He smiled.

"It's rude not to look your dance partner in the eye and call me Marcus." He smiled again and added.

"How do you get along with Drago, you've been seen with him quite often," Marcus said, looking at her.

"Well, he's a very cute creature and he's... kind," she said, and he smiled.

"Drago kind... You sure you didn't get the wrong dragon, he's anything but that, he's very grumpy," he says.

"Like you..." she replies.

"What... Me."

"As you will understand... a dragon has to be serious, but he's a good friend." He nodded.

"How do you feel about us?"

"Very well, your family and all of you are very good, thank you very much." He shakes his head.

"You don't have to thank me for anything," he said and when they finished several songs he spoke again.
