What Your Love Felt Like: The Dragon Saga
Chapter 83 - Kidnapped

Maria wasn't Maria. In fact, she wasn't even human. She was the accomplish that Marcus had. But Liana did not remember.

She led her up on the elevator and strangely enough it didn't seem to stop.

The building, though quite enormous, wasn't actually a skyscraper. But the elevator was running for minutes at a stretch and Liana started looking at her watch again and again, thinking that she might be having a time delusion. Finally she gathered her courage and spoke up," Umm, ma'am, is there any problem in the elevator? It doesn't seem to stop.

The woman smiled.

"It's taking us exactly where you need to go."

Her face started to seem a little familiar but Liana couldn't gather from where.

Then finally the elevator stopped.

Liana smiled at the woman and stepped out. But she did not follow Liana.

The doors of the elevator closed and then she was left, standing all alone in the deserted corridor.

As she walked down the deserted floor, she couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. The air was thick with a heavy silence, broken only by the sound of her footsteps echoing through the empty corridors.

Liana kept wondering if she was on the right floor, if yes, then where were all of her other friends.

Suddenly, she heard a low growling sound, and she froze in her tracks, heart pounding in her chest.

That was no dog. Or was it? Had she entered any restricted area?

Out of nowhere, the walls around her began to shimmer and glow with an eerie, green light. She tried to run, but her feet felt as if they were rooted to the spot. Then, the ground beneath her feet began to shake, and she stumbled and fell, hitting her head on the hard concrete.

As she struggled to regain her senses, she heard the sound of heavy wings beating the air. She looked up and saw a massive dragon descending from the ceiling, its scales gleaming in the strange green light. The dragon landed before her, its fiery eyes fixed on her with an intense gaze.

The exact same dragon that she had seen in her dream.

Was she sleeping?

Was she back in her nightmare?

She tried to scream, but her throat felt as if it had been constricted by an invisible force.

The dragon lowered its massive head, its hot breath washing over her face. Liana could feel its hot breath on her skin.

This was no dream. At this point,she knew that she was in a real life situation, no matter how absurd it might seem and was definitely at the mercy of this fearsome creature inches away from her lips. As the dragon's jaws opened, she closed her eyes and braced herself for the worst, wondering how she could have been so foolish as to walk into a trap.

A trap?

Why so?

And why did this dragon seem so familiar?

Then she saw a man standing in the distance. He appeared to be in his late thirties, with a rugged, handsome face and piercing blue eyes. He was dressed in a dark suit, and his demeanor seemed polite. "Help.... Please help me...

Liana tried to push the dragon and run towards the man.

As she approached the man, he smiled and greeted her, offering her a drink.

Liana was shocked at his nonchalance. Was seeing a dragon an everyday thing?

She tried pointing back at the dragon but to her great shock and surprise, when she did, the dragon was gone.

The corridor had magically restored itself and there was no sign of struggle.

Liana flipped her head back and forth, then looking at the glass in the man's hand,she accepted the drink without hesitation.

What was wrong with her, she wondered. She needed the drink to calm her nerves.

But as soon as she took a sip of the drink, she felt a sudden dizziness overcome her once again.

Liana touched her head and looked at the man.He looked strangely familiar,just like the woman at the reception and the more Liana tried to think about them, her head began to intensify in its throb.

Then as her eyes began to close and her vision began to blur, she thought she saw that the man's face began to contort, his eyes were turning a fiery red, and his skin had began to ripple as if it was made of scales.Liana realized with a sudden sense of horror that the man too, was not at all a human, but a dragon in disguise.

The dragon revealed itself, towering over her in its true form. The building around them began to shake, and the walls crumbled, revealing the open sky. The dragon grabbed the woman in its massive claws, and lifted her high into the air. Liana was terrified, struggling to break free, but the dragon's grip was too strong.

Liana saw that the world was a blur of colors and shapes as she looked down, and she knew that she was at the mercy of this fearsome creature that was haunting her dream.
