Fated is overrated

Lola POV

'MATE!' Justice yells in my mind. Do I have the worst f*cking luck in mate history, or what? I can already tell me and steroids aren't going to get along. At all. 'Oh god.... But have you seen plastic fantastic and heard his demeaning words, Justice?' 'Yes..... I am not happy with mate. Do put him in his place before revealing us'. Say no more, I grin inwardly. I clear my throat loudly and lock my eyes on Mr. steroids, before saying "father, if I may?" without breaking eye contact with steroids."

Of course, my daughter". Good, here we go. "What makes you think I am unfit to lead? Just because I am female? You will need a better reason than that, boy.

And furthermore, who said I don't have a dragon?". I wasn't even sure I wanted to lead. But now they are openly telling me I am "unfit", I all of a sudden want it more than anything of course. Tell me I can't do something, and I will, even if just to spite you. He turns red with anger and I can't suppress the smirk appearing on my face, which angers him even more. He is visibly shaking with anger. "I believe being lost for so long hasn't done your brains any favor, kid. We can all smell you don't have a dragon from a mile off. Now be a good little girl, hush, and let the grown men talk". Justice roars in my ears and is begging to be let loose, but I hold her back for now. My dad is fuming and as he is about to speak I place my hand on his arm and smile at him. 'Let me' I briefly link him. I jump off the platform and saunter towards the man. "Do you want to try that again, boy? I will give you one more chance to be respectful to your future queen. Heed my warning as you do not get a second one. I do not tolerate disrespect" I say with a hint of venom in my tone, yet keeping a taunting smile on my face. He starts to shake violently and his eyes go pitch black, indicating his dragon is about to come out to play. "If you weren't the King's daughter, you would be dead right now" he hisses. "Wrong answer, pup. Don't say I didn't warn you" I say with an evil smirk, while pushing out my aura and bringing them all to their knees. I am engulfed in the black flames I have come to adore, and I feel jolts of electricity involuntarily twitching at my fingers. I still don't fully control all my powers yet.

Steroids gulps and his mouth is agape for a second, before he regains his composure slightly and clenches his jaw. "What the f*ck are you? Just because you are a f*cking witch or something, doesn't mean you will fit into a dragon kingdom" he grits out under the weight of my aura, and I can't help but smile wider. 'SHOWTIME' Liberty yells excitedly in my head.

"Your future Queen, pup. THAT IS WHAT I AM!" I roar, before pushing everyone away from me with a gust of wind and letting Justice come out. Luckily, the room is big enough for a dragon to shift.

Every eye in the room is on us now. Justice steps right in front of him and huffs her disapproval. The color has drained from steroid's face, and his mouth is agape.

Looking around the room, everyone is pale and looks to be in shock. Some have even physically backed away from me, while others have kneeled graciously for us. Justice roars loudly and sprays a circle of ice around steroids, just because we can.

We can't speak from our dragon form unfortunately, I would have loved to rip him a new one now. My dad proceeds for me with a hard glare towards steroids "anything else to add, Lucian?", he all but spits out. Steroids, Lucian apparently, softly mutters "no, my King".

I turn back to the podium and shift behind the throne. I quickly put on some clothes we had left there, anticipating trouble already, and step back in front again. 'Justice, talk to me.

I kind of really want to reject the *sshole on the spot here. But I know how much mates mean to you both, that's why I gave Liberty a say back then too, so I won't do anything you don't agree on'. Justice is quiet for a moment, before speaking up 'I.... I don't know Lola.

Dragons normally get second chances, but I'm not sure how that works for hybrids, as we have Lycan mates already as well. 'Well, either way, do you see yourself being with him?

The misogynistic *sshole with fake barbie on his arms?' I question her, knowing the answer already. But instead of an answer I am met with silence, so I decide not to push her any further and leave the matter with her for now.

Steroids is looking at me stunned, and I can see the gears turning in his head. I bet he is wondering if I can feel the mate bond or not, as I am not letting it be known that I do.

I link my dad and Damon quickly 'don't freak out, and don't say anything, but I just found my dragon mate... I let out in a deep sigh. Visit Job ni b .co m to read the complete chapters for free. Both of them still ask to verify which one, hoping it wasn't who they were thinking, but I have to let them down and reply 'yeah, Mr. steroids over here with the plastic barbie doll on his arms. Anyway, leave it for now, I am not in the mood to deal with this now and here'.

Both my dad and Damon have their fists clenched and I can see they are grinding their teeth, barely able to hold back. Their protectiveness of me warms my heart, and a genuine smile tugs at my lips. 'Honey, you need to tell them to rise, otherwise they won't get up' my father links me and I laugh at my own expense.

I am so inexperienced, I was unaware that I made them kneel and now they have no choice but to wait until I call them up again. "RISE" I bellow out and glance at my father for him to continue.
