I married Donkey

Hello, my name is Drakaina, but most or all of you know me as Elizabeth. Yes, yes, I am the dragon that married Donkey. Lately we, Donkey and I, have been getting a lot of fan mail. To be more precise, donkey is getting fan mail. I’m getting hate mail. Quite a few of you she donkeys have written about your displeasure to our happy union. We even received a donkey for donkeys petition. That’s why I have decided to tell you all my story. At the end, I hope you all will let true love prevail.

First things first, as many of you have pointed out I do not talk, so how do Donkey and I communicate? I use telepathy. All dragons do. Yes, I have eaten a variety of things including humans. No, I am not sorry and will not apologize. Do any of you humans apologize to your food species? Now with that out of the way, let’s get started.

I am the former Princess of Dragons’ Nest. My king and father was called Red Death. I know some would say the egg doesn’t roll far from the nest, but that’s just not true. I loved my father, but I also understand he wasn’t the nicest of dragons. After his demise, I was shunned. No one would hunt with me or let me hunt with them. The solitude started to get to me. Then, one day I woke up to an ice cave. Compliments of one of the ice dragons. I almost lost my fire that day.

Shortly afterwards, I met a dragon. Let’s call him, he who shall not be named, or He for short.

He was full of fire and oh my did he spark mine. How you humans get wined and dined. We fire dragons get lava and mutton. We even considered flying to another island to start our own family.

Then, the grumbling started. Under currents of another war. Some wanted things to stay the way it was. Unbeknownst to me, He wanted control. He was attempting to reinstate the laws Red Death had constituted. With me being Red Deaths daughter, hierarchy dictated that I was next in line. He was using me as a pawn to acquire his kingdom.

In the end He lost, but I was blamed. He blamed me for his actions. Accused me of being the mastermind. It worked. They saw me as my father’s daughter. I had to fly away or face the consequences of his actions. He didn’t fly away unscathed. Banishment was his punishment.

That is how I ended up here in the Kingdom of Far Far Away. I was alone but I didn’t have to worry about my fire being iced. I didn’t have to worry about my heart being broken again. I was safe.

Many years later, I met Dama Fortunate, better know as Fairy God Mother. We had a kinship of sorts. If she had a problem with the town’s people , I would burn the town down. If a towns person caused her problems, I would eat his flock. Those were the good ole days.

One day she asked me for a favor. To guard Princess Fiona, until her true love came along. Dama Fortuna put a spell over the castle that only Princess Fiona’s true love could defeat me. I was hesitant at first, but then Dama said I would no longer be lonely. I would have a friend.

Once Dama explained what a friend was, I was all in. The little human would be mine. I never even considered eating her.

Okay that’s a lie, I did think about it, but only one time! It was only that one time and it was totally her fault. I told her about playing with the sheep next door. Did she listen? No! It was late when she came in smelling like mutton. Right before I took a bite, Fiona greeted me. Thank the dragons she did. The next day I wanted to go get my mutton.

What I didn’t know was the spell locked me in the castle. I was a prisoner. The only way for me to be free was for Fiona’s true love to defeat me. I tried letting some suitors win but to no avail. It had to be a true fight.

Now before some of you fly to conclusions. Fiona and I are friends. That is why Fiona never left the castle for good. She wanted to help herself by waiting for her prince and help me by breaking the spell. It was just us for quite a long time and losing her broke my heart. That all changed when Donkey came along with his deep melodious voice, telling me how dazzling my smile was. He saw my feminine beauty. Whew, I had to take a break and bat my wing. Donkey swept me off my feet. Well to be accurate, I flew him off his.

In those moments, Donkey gave me what was taken away from me. Hope. That hope turned into my dragons life. I have never been this happy. The thought of being without him makes my fire burn. I love Donkey and we have the perfect family.

Our children Debbie, Bananas, Coco, Parfait, Eclair and Peanut are the perfect little dronkeys. They look just like their father with my wings. The skyways are better by them flapping in it.

To all of those that dream of your prince or princess charming, waiting for them to come along. To all of those that know there is no boundary on love. None of us want to suffer a broken heart and live in the volcano of loneliness.

To those she donkeys that signed the petition. I ask, would you take away my one true love? Would you take a donkey from his dronkeys? Is taking Donkeys happiness away from him worth it?

I say not only donkey for donkeys but Jackassess for all!

Now that you know a little about me. I hope you will have a change of heart and mind.
