The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair CHAPTER 48.0: Future Visions

CHAPTER 48.0: Future VisionsAqua’s POV
Lexus shook me awake. “Babe, you told me to wake you up whenever you overslept.”
I opened my eyes. “It’s hard not to sleep in sometimes.” I sat up. “You were really rough last night.” I
blushed. “It makes me want to sleep longer.” I yawned. “And I hate going anywhere with visible
hickeys.”
I got out of bed naked, but he pulled me back and kissed my mark. Marks are really sensitive if
someone else touches our marks the other will feel pain. When we touch each other's marks, we feel…
pleasure. “I wish I could go with you today.”
I rolled my eyes. “You have to start work don’t you?” I moaned when he kissed my mark again then
pulled away and got up.
“Yeah I do but I still wish I could go with you.” He got up. “If you get back before me you should start
packing.”
“Packing?” I frowned. “It’s been two months, so I assume we’d just stay here. Bee told me about some
houses for sell, we can afford it.”
Lexus grabbed some clothes. “I never wanted to stay here, and you knew that. I don’t want to settle
down somewhere so soon. There’s a lot I want you to see.”
I walked to the closet. “Okay we can try a few different places, but I want to come back here every now
and then. You’ll probably get back before me because I’m having dinner with Sadia and Cade. Sadia is
finally ready to try with me. I think it’s only because I’m going to be her son's Aunt.” I grabbed the
clothes I was going to wear today.
“Son? They know the sex that soon?”I shook my head. “No but I saw it in a vision, a few actually. It worries me how many dreams I’ve been
having about our future. I don’t like to know that stuff. I prefer visions about events I can prevent. Like
when I saw that there was a rogue werewolf heading to the village for revenge.” I walked into the
bathroom.
Lexus followed me into the bathroom. “Do you ever see our kids?”
novelbinI turned the shower on. “Yeah but do you really want to know about that?”
“Sort of.” He started taking his clothes off.
“I’m taking a shower first.”
Lexus laughed. “We’ve been together for a little while now.” He got into the shower. I didn’t feel as
flustered as I thought. I took a breath then got into the shower. I was fine sleeping naked and for him to
see me naked for a little while, even while I walked around the room. This was different, he was just
staring at me and we were so close and exposed. I turned around so he was behind me. He leaned
down and whispered, “Tell me about our kids.”
I closed my eyes and let the water hit me. “Well first we have a daughter, she’s cute and full of energy.
Then we have a boy, he’s reckless and loves messing around with magic.”
Lexus started to wash my body. “Am I a good father?”
My back was against him now and he washed the front of my body. “I think so, I only see so much but
we seem like a close family.”
When we got out of the shower Lexus left to work and so did I. I was used to doing jobs like these now.
I walked to the address and knocked on the door. I was surprised to see Vella answer. “Aqua, you’rehere early.” She looked a lot better than the last time I saw her. “I was the one who put out the listing for
a job to your coven. I knew they’d send you. I really do need your help. Come in.”
I followed her in. “When did you move?”
“Last month, I got kicked out because I didn’t have any money since I was fired. Towns are cheaper to
live in and I was able to get a job as a gardener here. I thought it was better for me to move to a new
kingdom entirely because I still thought Lexus was going to eventually be king.” We were in the
southern dragon kingdom. It’s a bit far so I had to portal here with a splicer my mother helped me
enchant. “I didn’t want to live under his rule and now I don’t feel like moving back.” They officially
announced Hannah would be taking over two weeks ago.
“What do you need my help with?” I asked.
“This town has a gang problem, mages to be more specific. We don’t need you to fight them, we have
that covered but we need to know their next moves and what to watch out for. This is serious.
Someone died because of them last week. I told the town that I could get this information for them. Is
the reward I offered enough?” I felt weird accepting money for this at all. At first I refused it, but they
never let me.
“Of course.”
We sat down at her dinner table and she started explaining any information I’d need. I sat down and
pulled out two gemstones. One I used to have specific visions to see when they’d next attack. The only
thing I didn’t like about this job was how many visions I had involved seeing murders. Seeing them was
worth preventing them, and this was something I couldn't do at the castle. The king and queen had me
using my abilities for politics and protecting the castle, sometimes the big cities. “How’s Cade doing?”I wasn’t sure what to say so I put off answering the question until after I was done writing down the
dates of the attacks and a few details. “He’s good.”
“Good how? Like is he with someone? Is he still at the castle? I know you, Lexus, and Konn aren’t but
the news doesn’t really care about the adviser's son.”
I put the vision gem away and pulled out the one that increased my intuition. “Do you really want to
know any of this?” I closed my eyes and focused on the gem and what I wanted to know. I started
writing down exactly what my intuition told me they could do to stop the gang.
Vella took a deep breath. “Yeah Aqua, I do want to know and I’m sorry about how I reacted the last time
I saw you.” She looked like she actually felt bad about what she did. “I was jealous and wanted
everyone to suffer the way I was.”
I put the intuition gem away and pulled out the gem to see auras. I closed my eyes, focused, then
opened them. Her aura wasn’t perfect, but I could tell it was improving. “Cade’s with Sadia now, they’re
having a baby. He moved out of the castle and joined Sadia’s pack. He lives at the pack house.”
“...they’re having a baby.” She closed her eyes tightly then opened them. “I’m happy for Cade.” She
sighed. “He deserves someone like Sadia.”
I pushed the notes towards her. “You can send payment straight to the coven, the same way you sent
the down payment.” I got up.
“Aqua wait.” She stood up. “I’m really sorry if you see Cade and Sadia can you tell them that? Can you
tell Lexus too?”
I shrugged. “Maybe.”“Aqua.” She looked away. “I don’t remember much about the end of the ball, but I know you were nice
to me despite how I was acting. I don’t know if I would have got home safely without the guard. You’re
the only person I know who would have sent one to make sure I got home safety. I didn’t remember
that stuff until after I told everyone you were sleeping with Lexus. I’m sorry and thank you.”
I frowned. “You’re welcome Vella.” I sighed and left. I didn’t hate Vella, nor did I think she was a bad
person. I just hoped she learned something from what happened. I know I did.
