Chapter 72"I cannot believe that you did not mention anything about my brother to me!" Saint berated Gerald as they drove back home. "Tell me why you didn't mention that I had a brother when you knew that I had lost my memory!" Saint demanded, trying to keep his eyes on road as he drove. "The moment you healed me in that hospital and you took your rightful place as the leader of the dragon clan, I knew that you had regained all of your memories by some miracle." Gerald paused to catch his breath but Saint was not patient enough to wait for him pause mid sentence before speaking further. "That doesn't answer my question, Gerald. Why did you nor my uncle ever mention Drake to me?""Because we thought that you already knew. And how is it even possible that you regained all of your memories and didn't remember any of Drake's?""Well I guess I know!" Gerald answered his own question, "it was because the gods wanted it to be that way. They knew that Drake was a taboo and didn't want to

Practically all the members of the Zlate family—including her father had stormed out of the house and were now surrounding her, inspecting her for any wounds. "I'm fine. Just a few scratches but I'm fine." Victoria let out in agony as she struggled to peel herself away from her family's hugs and kisses, refusing to be babied anymore by them. "Where had you been all this while, Victoria. You had us all worried!" Lord Zlate exclaimed as he came forward. "I was kidnapped father, obviously you all didn't know that I had been kidnapped." Victoria said in a disappointed tone. "Victoria we did all we could to find you, we contacted the police, we sent out all our guards, but all our efforts were futile." Victoria's mother said, making attempt to hug Victoria but she stepped back. "I do not want to hear all of that. If Saint had not came to my rescue, who knows what would have happened to me?" Victoria said, almost breaking down into hot tears. "SAINT?!!!" Everyone chorused at the sam

The following night, after dinner had just been served, and Drake had eaten to his fill. He informed Saint that he had something to say in front of everyone and it wasn't what Saint was expecting, he thought that Drake wanted to give a special thanks to everyone. He wanted to tell him that there was no need for him to be grateful for accepting him back and that's what any sane brother in his shoes would have done. "Alright then, you can go ahead." Saint nudged him on, scooping another spoon from his food. Drake bowed slightly before getting up from his chair. He took a step forward, his gaze unwavering as he spoke. “I pledge my allegiance to the Dragon Clan, to you, Saint. I will fight by your side, no matter the cost.”Saint watched him, measuring the weight of his words. He swallowed the food in his mouth and washed it down with a glass of wine before he finally spoke. “Why? After everything this clan has done to you, after everything they took from you, why would you stand wit

The whole night was completely silent—only the soft rustling of leaves in the gentle wind could be heard. Victoria took a deep breath as she stepped out of the house, the cool night air biting at her skin. Her heart was pounding loudly in her chest, but she kept her steps light, glancing over her shoulder every few moments to ensure no one had followed her. The weight of her decision sat heavily in her chest, but she refused to falter. She had packed what she needed in a modest suitcase, not wanting to draw any unnecessary attention. As much as she hated sneaking out like a thief in the night, she knew this was the only way.She reached her car, gripping the handle tightly as she prepared to open the door, but before she could, a familiar voice sliced through the night.“Going somewhere?”Her breath hitched, and she turned abruptly, her eyes widening in shock. Standing a few feet away was Saint with his arms crossed over his chest and his dark eyes locking onto hers with an unreadab

The enemy looked like he was a man of steel with his muscles rippling like forged iron beneath his dark robes. Saint immediately stepped forward, shielding Victoria and her family. He clenched his fists, ready for battle, but a nagging feeling of unease settled in his gut. This man was different—his aura alone was suffocating.Just as the enemy charged at Saint with the force of a thunderstorm, a blur of movement disrupted his path. A swift kick sent the intruder staggering backward. Saint barely had time to react before a familiar voice cut through the tension.“You’re too reckless, brother,” Drake said, standing tall beside Saint.Saint’s eyes widened in shock. “Drake? How—how did you find this place?”Drake smirked, never taking his gaze off the enemy. “I’ve been following you. I tried to warn you, but I was too late.”Saint processed his brother’s words quickly but didn’t have time to argue. The enemy was already recovering from the surprise attack, rolling his shoulders with an
