The two dragons were happy to settle on a schedule. They both hunted in turns, meaning their precious babies were never hungry. They never wanted for anything in fact. They promised to all be healthy good-looking dragons. Argent was positively bursting with pride and joy at having secured such a wonderful mate. She was so attentive! So sweet! Always ready to please him and his virile member! And so gorgeous and loving! Yes, she was a dream come true. She had dropped out of nowhere and he wondered how he ever could have lived without her. And so fertile! Why, it was almost like magic! An extraordinarily powerful magic indeed! Little did he know it was the case, in fact, but he didn't delve too much in the matter. The results were there and he certainly was not about to complain! For him and his precious family, life was good.
Yet one day, as he was getting mutton for dinner through diminishing sheep flocks, an intruder arrived in the cave. A young knight in need og glory and admiration. A cocky one too as he was captured very quickly by Jasper. Argent arrived as soon as he heard his babies screaming for help. Jasper had everything under control, though. She'd cornered and smashed hard on the armour of the stupid human who had dared come in. He was looking for a hoard and a way to get rich and famous but his armour was bad and his techniques awful. Argent arrived and both stared at the human. Punishment would be certain. However, Argent did not know that upon seeing the intruder Jasper had recalled his life as a prince, if temporarily. He knew him! He was the son of a lesser noble who had always been a jerk to him, trying to do sneakily what he could not do in front of him, or rather due to his lack of courage. His name was Christian. He'd play stupid jokes on the prince and spread rumors on him constantly. If he knew what Jasper had been reduced to, he'd love that! So he must not find out, ever, even if by chance he learned of Jasper's fate, through incredible circumstances. And indeed, maybe there was here a perfect way to get back at this jerk who deserved to be thoroughly and humiliatingly punished.
"What should we do with him?" Argent asked. "A roast?"
Christian begged to be spared at the suggestion.
"I was thinking of something more... personal," said Jasper with an evil grin and attracting the attention of her mate.
