Mated To The Queen Of The Sea

Actually, not all of the creatures who bowed to Diana were pleased with her. They just had to do it.

But in truth, Diana was the leading Luna in the entire Manelda and she had long been mine.

Next appeared a dragon. Funnily enough, I began to wonder whether it was the same dragon that visited me sometime ago, or it was another. Even while I was aware of how dragons were not many in Manelda, I still had the doubt, that it could be the masculine creature which explained riddles to me about the dark universe.

So, I reached out to the middle field of that forest where all the creatures were, including me – to listen clearly to whatever it has to say while introducing itself.

“I am Andres, the Giant Lord Dragon of the River pool jungle!” The dragon started pompously.

“Do you know Herdy?”

“Yes, I know one Herdy, but he is stronger than you are!” Andres, the dragon replied rather confidently, with hints of emphasis on the ‘strong.’

I came to know this kind of creature needed to be addressed as a normal being, so I was preferring to use the masculine pronoun to regard him at random, even while I didn’t know his gender yet.

His name, Andres sounded like that of a masculine’s. But yet, there’s a girl I knew long ago who was named Andria, and I began to remember what she said about the name, that it’s the same with ‘Andres.’

Just a cool sigh was what I gave that day. Whether she was Andria or Andres, her name means ‘solid being’ according to Manelda’s views and beliefs.

So, I tried to listen to him even more clearly, to get him in his words.

“Stronger?” I asked him, like a layman would do – as if I didn’t hear what he said, talkless of what he really meant, either literally, emotionally or figuratively in general.

“Yes, the Herdy I know is stronger than you are….” Andres reiterated boldly.

So, I knew he really meant the question he threw at me; he had made no mistake!

And, perhaps he had been thinking I was scared of him and the other monsters and creatures around; it might be and might not be.

I was going to prove him wrong when he motioned to me, as if he knew my mind, and he stopped me from giving him a reply contrariwise.

“You’re the Alpha Herdy?” He asked me.

I was not responding, so he kept silent too.

But, in some minutes, I felt I should talk.

“I’m a strong man from the farthest places of this same world of Manelda. My own ‘Herdy’ is powerful enough to move a land and convert it into a sea, because I am the husband of a marine madam!”

“A marine madam?” Andres asked surprisingly.

“No such thing as a lookalike with a marine animal with human features! she’s no one but my only Luna wife!” I declared, now feeling well and happy about Diana, at least.

“Can you remember the last discussion we had, before now?” Andres asked, staring at me as if he was going to bounce on me suddenly.

“Dragon? Maybe the dream I had sometime ago…” I thought.

“You didn’t reply to my question” the dragon said.

“I thought I talked… Well, I can’t remember you, but it was only once I saw something that looked exactly your shape… that was even in my dream!” I exclaimed in response.

“I was sent to you by the Queen of the Sea…” Andres revealed, but then I interrupted him.

“Queen of the Sea? Isn’t that Diana? The Dynasty Queen?” I asked.

“Yes, she will show who she has really been, when the time comes!” Andres added.

“Diana is my Luna Queen, that’s all…” I said.

“Says who?” the dragon asked wittily.

“Huh.. says the King-to-be!” I exclaimed rather funnily, but to appease him because I had sensed anger rising from inside of him.

“Many tales out there to learn from… Diliuni is going to capture the whole world of Manelda, destroy the entire community of mazes, vampires, beasts and demons if only…” the dragon started saying, again.

“If only what, Andres?” I asked the dragon, so curious and eager to understand him, and even Diana much better.

“If only she takes the mace… If only she cuts off the head of that ruler of Jaspon!” the dragon declared.

“Do you mean Grandage?” I asked to be sure.

“That is for you to search out… Well, have you heard anyone bearing Theolus or the woman called Alliana?” the dragon questioned me.

“Yes, those are my acquaintances. I mean I know both of them; Theolus is a kindhearted Omega friend to one of my wolves, and Alliana was my first love…” I started to narrate how I was tallying what the dragon asked of me.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“Come to the river pool jungle, you can always see me there. If you have anything trying to trouble you, just come around. It’s time to go again!” Andres the dark dragon stated clearly to me.

“River pool jungle? That’s close to Diliuni? Maybe?” I asked him.

As raised my head up to see if he was really leaving, the dragon appeared at my back, so close to me; he had become very angry with me.

I shook my hands up as if they were tails, dipped my right thumb into my mouth and brought out something from my tongue; It was a coal of fire.

“Fight me, and let me see!” The dragon audaciously commanded me, folding his arms and waiting for me to strike, as he had said to do.

I raised my head up, twisted my two hand together, trying to form something like a pattern. As soon as I made a smooth and stable pattern, I threw those hands at him.

Not knowing the other hands I used in throwing my original hands at him, I shrugged and from the sky, another beast wolf appeared, which looked just like me.

Before I could look back, I was dashed three consecutive blows on my neck. As I wondered where the blower got fists from, and was about striking too, I realized he had disappeared.
