The Forbidden love ( The Ultimate Sacrifice)

Chapter 11 - VISITING HER HOME

Chapter 11

'Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world. Loving yourself starts with liking yourself, which starts with respecting yourself, which starts with thinking of yourself in positive ways. The more you love yourself, the less nonsense you’ll tolerate.'

💖💖💖💖VISITING THE MERMAID KINGDOM 💝💝💝💝

Rae gasped. She almost sat up, but Jorkallun hands prevented her from doing so.

"I figured I would wait to see one last sunrise, and then I could do it. But when I sat and saw the sun begin to light the sky, I began to realize that I was about to throw everything away - my future, my life, and if nothing else, the chance to see one more sunrise. For what? For people who weren't going to matter in a few years anyhow. Even my problems."

"So, what did you do?" Rae find herself asking.

"I took control. From that moment when I decided not to jump, I took control. You know what Rae, I learnt something that very day, when you decide that you wanted things to change, then you would have to make them change yourself." Jorkallun said.

"You are right." Rae said after a while. "So, do you want to talk about it, why you tried to end your own life?"

The silence seemed to stretch out the more when she asked that question, she thought that maybe Jorkallun did not hear or he doesn't want to talk about it.

She was starting to say something when Jorkallun beat her to it.

"Jason and I were best friends, everyone thought that we were brothers separated from birth. I introduced Lolly to him as the girl I intended to get married too. He went behind my back and got engaged to her. That night I wanted to jump was their engagement party." Jorkallun finally said.

Rae widened in shock.

"He didn't tell you why he did that?" She asked gently.

"No, Jason didn't. He was cool with it, and I hate him for that." Jorkallun voice was filled with hate.

"Sorry to ask but I thought Dragons has mates, I mean the gods gave each and everyone of us mates who will complete us, wasn't Lolly your mate?" Rae asked curiously.

"No, we Dragons choose our mates ourselves. Once we fall in love with someone and we see that person as your better half, during the mating ceremony, we mark them and they become ours forever." Jorkallun explained.

"Oh, so you get to choose who you want to spend the rest of your life with?" Rae asked surprised, she didn't know of this, she needs to start reading more about Dragons history.

"Yes." Jorkallun briefly answered.

"Was Lolly Jason's mate?" Rae wanted to find out.

"No, I don't think so, we do hang out with Lolly and her friends before I officially introduced her as my mate to be. Jason would have told me if she was his mate the first day he met her, he knows it will hurt me but he will tell me. But he rather went behind my back to engage Lolly." Jorkallun said.

"What about Lolly, do you still love her?" Rae asked and prayed to the gods his answer should be No.

"No, after what she did, I don't love Lolly anymore.

Rae found herself smiling at his answer.

"So since dragons can choose who they wish to be with, what do you think of me?" Rae decided to ask that question.

Jorkallun laughed out which surprises the hell out of Rae.

The bright moon seem to make Jorkallun red hair glitter as he threw his head back to laugh, his long hair flying in the wind. His laughter sounded like music to Rae's ear. She couldn't help herself but fall in love with the pretty boy, she wished at that moment that Jorkallun should tell her he loves her.
