The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair Chapter CHAPTER 26.5: Twenty Years of Love

I went into my hotel room and cried. Gram held me the whole time. I decided to go out and have a good
last day with Gram before she left that night.

Towards the end of the day Konn messaged me to meet up but I ignored him. After a while I had to talk
about it one my time to gram. “I don’t get it… we spent so much time talking before. Why wouldn’t he
push having a family into the conversation?”

“To leave the door open.” Betty answered. “Most men do it, but you’ll recover Mae.” She finished
packing. “Do you still want to stay here?”

I nodded. “I have to Gram.” This place was still everything I wanted; I wasn’t staying for Konain.

She kissed my forehead. “I love you Mae, as much as the daughters I gave birth to. I hope your heart
heals soon. You have so much love to give.”

I nodded and watched her leave with her bags. My phone rang and I saw that Konn was calling me. I
took a deep breath and answered. “Yes?”

“You didn’t answer any of my messages. How much longer are you going to be here for? I want to see
you before you leave.” He sounded so genuine. “I’m outside your hotel now.”

I looked out the window and spotted him. “Konn, I’m not leaving… I’m staying here.”

“Oh.” I wasn’t sure if that was disappointment or just shock. “That’s great.”

“Is it?” My eyes watered.

“Yeah, I’m not sure what else you want me to say. Can I come up to your room?”

“I don’t want to have sex.” I whispered.



“Mae that’s fine, I just want to see you. Are you okay?”

“Are you married Konn?” My voice shook as I asked.

All I heard was a sigh than he broke the silence. “Can I please come up and we can talk about it?”

“Okay…” I told him the room number and hung up. I opened the door for him when he knocked.

He walked in and sat down on one of the two beds. I sat across from him on the other bed. “I am
married and it’s new. We have a son-“

“Then why have we been having sex? I thought you actually liked me Konain.” I felt humiliated. “We
could have just stayed friends.”

“I do Mae and that’s why. There’s so much about you that I like. That’s why I wanted to see you again
when we were kids. There’s something here that I don’t have in my marriage. I know that sounds
terrible but it’s true.” I squeezed my knees and started crying. He liked me but it didn’t matter because
he was married with a child. I kept wishing that I had come here and found him sooner. Konn got up
and walked to me. He sat next to me and hugged me. “I’m sorry Fairy.”

We cuddled then we fell asleep, but I woke up when he was leaving. “You’re leaving?”

Konn nodded. “I have to, but we can meet up again in a week. We don’t have to have sex if you don’t
want to.” It was more than sexual for him and me too.

“I’ll think about seeing you again…”

I didn’t have to think about it for long because after a week we met up again. Konn even helped me get
a job as a sorceress for a school. Not as a teacher but to cast spells for them. I guess they needed
basic spells done to deal with day-to-day problems. They also needed protection spells which was a



big one. We hung out whenever we could which wasn’t often but after a few weeks we started having
sex again. Before I knew it, we were having an affair for nearly half a year.

“I love you, Mae.” Konn whispered into my ears while we were doing foreplay.

I moaned. “That’s not Funny Konn.”

“I’m serious, I love you.” How could he love me? “I’m in love with you Fairy.”

“I love you too Konain.”

That was us at our peak. When I found out I was pregnant everything came crashing down. “I’m sorry I
should have never told you.”

He chose his wife and their child over me and ours even though he claimed to love me more. I didn’t
know what to do but I didn’t see Konn again for the rest of my pregnancy. It would have been too hard.
I thought about reaching out to my family in the outside world. I didn’t, they probably thought I was
dead because I didn’t keep in touch. I told Gram and she offered to raise the child with me. She even
offered to raise it by herself, but I refused. She was too old to raise a baby on her own. When I gave
birth, I did it in the home of my new coven. A few of the older witches delivered her. “What do you want
to name her?”

“Aqua.” I said and held my baby for the first time.

Aqua stayed with me for a few weeks. I was getting attached but I hadn’t decided who I wanted to
adopt her. “Mae, Konn is at the door, so you want me to tell him to leave?” I was staying in the coven
house ever since I gave birth. I couldn’t care for Aqua here in this world. I could barely take care of
myself and I didn’t want the coven to have to. I was young and in a world that didn’t cater to humans
the way the outside world did.



“I’ll see him.” I walked downstairs and to the door with Aqua in my arms. “Hey…”

Konn looked at her. “She’s beautiful.”

I nodded. “Take her. I trust you more than myself to decided who should take care of her.”

Konn agreed and left with my daughter.

Years went on and I built a life for myself in a kingdom that was new and full of different species. I
stayed in the same coven but lived in my own home. I went for my morning walk and when I walked
back home Konn was sitting at my doorstep. “Konn?”

Konn looked up then stood up. “Mae. I know we both moved on with our lives but… Mae I nothing
changed, no matter how much I tried.”

I looked at his shoulder. “You’re marked.” He wasn't marked the months of our affair.

“The mark came three years after my marriage because the prince who is king now had to approve. It
took him a while,” he explained. “That’s not going to be a problem, you’re good at protection spells.” I
worked at the school for years casting barrier protection spells. A strong one was already around my
property.

“I didn’t give up my child for you to still be in my life Konn. I don’t even know where she is.” All I knew
was she recently turned five.

“She’s being raised by your sister. I thought the best place for her to be with blood, distant family in the
human world. She lives in the house you grew up in. I check on her twice a year without being seen.”

I didn’t like the idea of that, but my sister wasn’t a bad person. She wouldn’t make a bad mom. “Is she
safe there? What if she shifts?”



Konn nodded. “She’s safe, your sister and her husband love her, and she has a little sister she loves. I
thought about sealing her shifting abilities, but they might lay dormant. There aren’t many
human/dragon shifter hybrids, but they usually don’t shift until adulthood. Maybe then I’ll seal them,
doing it now could mess up her development of them.”

I took a deep breath. “As long as she’s okay…”

Me and Konn fell back into our old habits. I thought a lot about going to get Aqua, but it never felt
right.
