00:00My belly felt like a furnace and hit 45 degrees Celsius.
00:03He said what I was carrying wasn't a baby.
00:05The doctor's hands shook.
00:07He said I wasn't carrying a baby but magma.
00:09To stay alive, I soaked myself in icy water for three full days.
00:13Until I heard a crack.
00:14My water broke and what flowed out was boiling black liquid.
00:17The hospital alarms went off.
00:19I knew I was giving birth to a monster.
00:21It's done.
00:22It's a creature covered in scales.
00:25It didn't sound like human.
00:26The expected newborn cry was replaced by a hiss.
00:28I lay on the operating table, half conscious, only feeling the tearing pain in my abdomen.
00:33Suddenly get swallowed by an icy cold.
00:35Dr. Hank's hands trembled so badly, he dropped his metal clamp with a clang.
00:38He didn't even dare approach it.
00:40I forced my head up and through blurred vision, I saw them.
00:43Two creatures in translucent fluid.
00:45Their bodies were covered in red and black scales.
00:47They even had small fleshy horns on their heads.
00:50They're dragons.
00:51Then I passed out completely.
00:53When I woke up, the room was silent.
00:55No nurses or flowers.
00:56Meanwhile, the two creatures were curled together.
00:59Every breath from the red one sparked tiny embers from its nostrils.
01:02Then I thought of Leonard Hill.
01:03He was from a hidden powerhouse at the top of the Capitol.
01:06They were rumored to carry the divine bloodline.
01:08He once threw me an obsidian card with an outrageous limit, saying he wanted a perfect
01:11heir.
01:12If he found out I gave birth to two monsters, he would tear me and them apart without hesitation.
01:17Dr. Hank's.
01:17I pressed the call button.
01:18Dr. Hank's walked in, face pale as a sheet.
01:21I slapped the obsidian card onto the bedside table.
01:23The babies died at birth.
01:25Both of them.
01:26Do you understand?
01:27He looked at the card, then at the box, where the two creatures slowly opened their golden
01:31eyes.
01:32Soon, greed prevailed.
01:33I understand.
01:34The babies didn't survive.
01:36I'll report it.
01:37Also, I pointed at the glass box.
01:40Give me a portable case.
01:41I'm leaving the hospital now.
01:43In the pouring rain at night, I drove like I'd lost my mind, racing toward the forest on
01:47the outskirts of the city.
01:49Scratching sounds kept coming from the suitcase in the passenger seat.
01:51They stabbed my heart, but I didn't dare listen or stop the car.
01:54An hour later, I pulled over at the pitch black face of the mountain.
01:57I walked into the woods with the case.
01:59I was totally soaked, and my wounds burned.
02:02I found a cave and opened the case with trembling hands.
02:05Go back to where you belong.
02:06Don't blame me.
02:07If you stay with the Hill family, you'll die.
02:09The two baby dragons seemed to understand.
02:11They pressed their foreheads gently against my palm.
02:14It felt cold, but faintly warm.
02:16My heart ached, like something had been ripped out of me.
02:19I forced myself to push them away and ran.
02:21Stay there.
02:22Never come back.
02:23I gripped the steering wheel and cried.
02:25How did my life end up like this?
02:27I drove away and went back to my apartment.
02:30I took a bath, but it couldn't ease my despair.
02:32The next morning, I woke up to a strange warmth.
02:35I reached for the bed sheet and felt something smooth and hard.
02:39A scream lodged in my throat.
02:41The red one was coiled around my neck, breathing softly, even puffing out a tiny ring of smoke,
02:46like it was content.
02:47The black one, crouched by the bedroom door, watching the living room with its golden eyes
02:51like a guard.
02:52I couldn't believe they came back on their own.
02:54It was the 28th floor.
02:56Then my phone on the coffee table started vibrating.
02:58It was Leonard's assistant calling.
03:00When I answered, a cold female voice came through.
03:04Mr. Hill returned early.
03:05He'll arrive at your apartment in one hour.
03:08Leonard will be here in an hour?
03:10My heart started racing instantly.
03:11I looked at Noctis and Ember, now curiously inspecting the water dispenser, and I felt
03:16my blood run cold.
03:17Leonard was incredibly sharp.
03:19My lies wouldn't fool him.
03:21I needed a decoy.
03:23I grabbed my phone and instantly dialed a number.
03:25I need two newborn boys now.
03:27Send them to Moonlight Apartment within an hour.
03:29Ms. Quinn, this is illegal.
03:30I've sent you $1 million.
03:32There's another 10 when it's done.
03:34The next 40 minutes were the longest of my life.
03:37I dragged Noctis and Ember into the wardrobe safe room.
03:39It was soundproof, originally built for valuables.
03:42Ember got agitated, snorting sparks and nearly burning my silk scarf.
03:47Please behave and stay hidden.
03:48If you make a sound, I'll be in trouble.
03:51Noctis pressed its tiny claw against my hand.
03:53Then, it grabbed Ember and slipped into the ceiling vent.
03:56It was reassuring me everything would be okay.
03:59Soon, someone knocked on the door.
04:01The middleman rushed in with two babies.
04:03These are abandoned newborns.
04:05Nothing's wrong with them.
04:07Pay me and I'm gone.
04:08I transferred the rest of the payment and looked at the two sleeping babies on the couch.
04:13I felt no love, only endless fear.
04:16Soon, I heard a deep engine roar.
04:18Limited edition Maybach.
04:20Leonard is here.
04:21The moment the door opened, a suffocating pressure filled the room.
04:26Leonard Hill wore a dark gray coat, his presence towering and overwhelming.
04:30Rainwater dripped from his clothes and puddled onto the floor.
04:33His darkened eyes swept across the room and landed on the swaddle babies.
04:38He didn't look at them like a father, but like a ruthless king.
04:42My palms were slick with sweat, and I forced a weak smile.
04:45You're back.
04:46I'm still weak, so I didn't go to the airport.
04:50Leonard ignored me.
04:51He walked straight to the couch and lifted a corner of the swaddle.
04:55The air seemed to freeze.
04:56He stared at the two human babies.
04:58Just when I thought I was about to be exposed, he let out a cold laugh.
05:03These are the airs you gave me?
05:04My heart clenched.
05:06Yeah, yes, they look like you, don't they?
05:08Nervous, I could barely stand.
05:10Like me?
05:11Leonard slowly turned his head, and a strange glint flickered in his eyes.
05:14It made my skin crawl.
05:16Sasha, do you really think the Hill bloodline is that easy to carry?
05:20He suddenly reached out and grabbed my chin, forcing me to look at him.
05:24Also, why do I smell something strange?
05:26His gaze drifted toward the wardrobe.
05:29My mind went blank.
05:30It was the sulfur from Ember's fire earlier.
05:32Run a test.
05:33Leonard let go of me, and calmly wiped his fingers with a handkerchief.
05:37The doctor is here.
05:38He brought the equipment, so we'll do it here.
05:40I want the results.
05:41The door soon opened, and Jim walked in with a blood collection kit.
05:44He didn't even dare to look at me.
05:45I'm done for.
05:46Any attempt at bribery was a joke in Leonard's presence.
05:49The process felt like torture.
05:51Leonard sat across from me on the couch the entire time.
05:53He looked relaxed, but ready to strike like a beast.
05:56He didn't say a word, only toying with a maroon signet ring.
05:59The patterns on it looked eerily similar to the scales on the two baby dragons.
06:03Time crawled by, and it tortured me.
06:05It's over.
06:06The moment the results come out showing they aren't his children, I can explain nothing.
06:10He'd also find the dragons hiding on the ceiling.
06:13The machine gave a soft beep, and the report was printed.
06:15Jim picked it up with trembling hands and took a look.
06:18Then, his eyes widened, and he handed it over to Leonard.
06:20Mr. Hill, the results are out.
06:24I closed my eyes, waiting for judgment.
06:26Leonard glanced at the report, and his voice was indifferent.
06:29But the corners of his mouth curled up.
06:31These two are indeed my children.
06:33The probability is 99.99%.
06:36What?
06:36I snapped my eyes open in shock.
06:38This was impossible.
06:39I wondered if the middleman was arranged by Leonard.
06:42The shock left me speechless.
06:43However, Leonard did something.
06:45I couldn't understand at all.
06:47He tore the positive paternity report into pieces right in front of me.
06:51The scraps drifted to the floor.
06:53He stepped closer and bent down beside my ear.
06:56His breath was warm, but it made me feel frozen.
07:00Nice play, Sasha.
07:01Remember this.
07:02A dragon's sense of smell never lies.
07:04He suddenly turned his gaze toward the ventilation opening above the wardrobe.
07:08A thin black tail was faintly visible there, trembling slightly with anger.
07:13Come out.
07:13Leonard reached out toward the vent, and his voice turned strangely gentle.
07:17I'm here to take you home.
07:18The air felt thick and heavy, and I could barely breathe.
07:21At his words, two shadows finally emerged from the vent.
07:25A flash of red shot out first.
07:27Ember launched forward like a cannonball.
07:29Straight at his face.
07:31It was small, but its jaws opened, and a blast of fire erupted.
07:35Watch out, I shouted.
07:37However, Leonard didn't even blink.
07:39He raised his right hand slowly, and a faint golden glow formed in his palm.
07:43The flames vanished the moment they almost touched his hand, dissolving into smoke.
07:48Ember froze.
07:49It was as if it couldn't believe its attack had failed.
07:51Following that, Noctis slid down.
07:53It didn't attack.
07:54It coiled in front of me, like a guard.
07:57Its golden pupils locked onto Leonard.
07:59Paired with a low growl.
08:01The temperature in the room plummeted, and frost spread across the floor.
08:04These were the creatures I had brought into the world.
08:06As Leonard watched this scene, his smile deepened.
08:09He seemed stirred.
08:10Fire and frost control.
08:12That's my airs.
08:13He ignored Noctis' warning and stepped closer.
08:15At that moment, a deep instinctive fear rose in me.
08:18It wasn't fear, but more like submission.
08:21Even Noctis and Ember seemed to feel it.
08:23Their bristling scales slowly flattened, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
08:27Bloodline suppression.
08:28Leonard approached, gently pushed Noctis aside, and lifted a strand of my hair.
08:33Sasha, you really thought you could fool me with two human babies?
08:37I had Dr. Hanks modify the paternity test.
08:39However, since you like those human babies so much, keep them.
08:42Use them as shields for my sons.
08:44That night, he moved in.
08:46More precisely, he turned the place into his command post.
08:49The windows were swapped for bulletproof one-way glass, and the front door got triple biometric
08:54locks.
08:54From now on, without my permission, none of you can go out.
08:58He had a tin of premium air-flown Wagyu, and was feeding Ember with tweezers.
09:02It couldn't resist it at all.
09:05Noctis was calmer, perched on the chandelier, clearly eyeing the Wagyu.
09:09I watched this surreal little family, and felt my world cracking.
09:13What about the two kids?
09:14The twins I'd paid for were sleeping in there.
09:16Don't worry, in public, they're my heirs.
09:19Here, they're the only reason you're alive.
09:20He sounded casual, yet I could sense the violence underneath.
09:24That's the real him.
09:25Come here.
09:25He set the tweezers down, and looked at me.
09:27I flinched, and slowly shuffled over.
09:29Since you're their mother, there are rules to follow.
09:31He pointed at Ember scales, which were turning red.
09:33He's about to shed, and he'll hit 300 degrees.
09:36Do you want the apartment burned down, or yourself cooked?
09:38In the following days, I got a crash course in dragon keeping.
09:41He made me memorize a thick ancient bestiary, and bathed the dragons by hand.
09:46Leonard leaned by the door, holding a cigarette, and looking at me.
09:50They're dragons, not pets.
09:52If you can't keep them in line, they'll eat you alive.
09:54I gritted my teeth and pinned Ember down in the tub.
09:57Ember had been growing fast, already very strong.
10:00Maybe my grip was too rough, because he sneezed.
10:03Whoosh!
10:03A small burst of flame shot out.
10:05Of all places, it landed right on Leonard's expensive trousers.
10:09I almost laughed, but the urge died fast.
10:11That wasn't just fire.
10:13It charred the fabric in seconds.
10:14Leonard barely frowned.
10:15With a flick of his hand, the burnt cuff turned to ash, exposing his calf.
10:20Ember.
10:20I nearly fainted.
10:22I was sure Leonard would stew him alive.
10:24But Leonard wasn't angry at all.
10:25He crouched down, flicked Ember on the forehead, and there was actual approval in his voice.
10:30Good aim.
10:31Fire power's weak though.
10:32Add fire ganoderma to his diet.
10:34I, this lunatic.
10:35Ember seemed to know he'd messed up.
10:37He shot into my arms, and buried his scaly head against my chest.
10:41Leonard's eyes followed the movement, and stopped on my chest.
10:45His look turned dark and unreadable.
10:47Looks like he's attached to you.
10:48A storm broke out that night.
10:49Thunder woke me up, and I reached beside me.
10:52Empty.
10:52The Dargans were gone.
10:54My heart lurched.
10:55I got up, and the bedroom door swung open.
10:57Lightning flashed, revealing the figure in the doorway.
11:00It was Leonard.
11:01He was in a silk robe.
11:03Collar open.
11:04A glass of red wine in his hand.
11:05He wore a weird look.
11:06Looking for them?
11:07He swirled his wine.
11:08They're shedding in the case.
11:10Won't be out tonight.
11:11I exhaled, and pulled the covers up.
11:12The what brings you here?
11:14Leonard didn't answer.
11:15He walked over and sat on the bed.
11:17The mattress dipped under his weight, and his cold woody scent closed around me.
11:21I hear women who bear dragons are left with a special mark.
11:25I want to confirm it.
11:26What?
11:26What kind of mark?
11:27I shrank back.
11:28My back hitting the cold headboard.
11:30A flower.
11:31Before he finished, his cool hand had slid under my covers.
11:34Landed precisely on my ankle, then traveled up and lifted the hem of my nightgown.
11:38No, I tried to push him away in panic, but my body was limp.
11:41Eventually, his hand stopped at my belly.
11:44There was a faint silver pattern there, shaped like a blooming red spider lily.
11:47It had appeared after I gave birth.
11:49There it is.
11:49Leonard stared at the pattern, his eyes flashing dark red.
11:52He leaned in, his lips almost at my earlobe.
11:55Sasha, you're the first woman in centuries to bear twin dragons and survive.
11:59What does that mean?
12:00I asked.
12:01It means, you'll never escape me.
12:04Leonard's words struck like a chain, waking my survival instinct instantly.
12:07I can't stay here.
12:08He deemed, his sons, a weapon, and me, as a vessel.
12:12The moment Noctis and Ember stopped needing me, I'll be dead.
12:16The chance came soon.
12:18One afternoon, Leonard took an urgent call.
12:20A family matter had gone wrong.
12:22And he had to handle it himself.
12:24I'll be out for two hours.
12:25He put on his coat and held my gaze before walking out.
12:28Security is active.
12:29Be smart.
12:30The second the door shut, I was on my feet.
12:32Babies, come out.
12:33In the incubator, Noctis and Ember were noticeably bigger.
12:36Their scales harder.
12:38They seemed to sense my urgency and glided right over.
12:41I grabbed an oversized hiking backpack, padded the bottom thickly,
12:44and slipped in some clothes to make it feel safe inside.
12:47Listen, no matter what happens, do not make a sound.
12:49No fire, either.
12:50I tucked them in while crying.
12:52We're going somewhere your dad can't find us.
12:55Noctis nodded, his tail curling around Ember and pinning him back down.
12:59I zipped it up, leaving a small gap for air.
13:02Time was tight.
13:03I couldn't use the front door, but I knew there was a service shaft.
13:06Behind the master closet for the AC unit, it went to the garage, with the heavy bag on my back.
13:11I crawled into the dark, narrow tunnel.
13:1420 minutes later, I emerged in a corner of the garage, covered in dust.
13:17My car was 50 yards ahead.
13:19Almost there.
13:20Get in and drive straight out the gate.
13:21But the second my hand touched the door handle, a pair of headlights flicked on, locking me in place.
13:27A familiar Maybach sat parked in front of mine.
13:30The window lowered, revealing a face darker than the night.
13:34Sasha.
13:35He held the phone I'd left in the living room, his voice ice cold.
13:38Why not just obey?
13:39The air went cold.
13:41Leonard walked toward me.
13:42His shoes hit the concrete in sync with my pulse.
13:45Hand it over.
13:46He stopped in front of me, staring at the bulky hiking pack on my back.
13:49I clutched the straps, my knuckles white, as I trembled against the cold metal door.
13:54No, there's nothing in here.
13:55Just clothes.
13:56Clothes?
13:57Leonard sneered.
13:58He reached out, and a roar burst from inside the bag.
14:01Hiss.
14:02Roar.
14:02That was Ember.
14:03He felt how scared I was of the man in front of me, and instinctively became protective.
14:07The bag shook violently.
14:09The zipper popped open, and a snarling red-scaled head shot out.
14:13He gathered flames in his throat, then shot a brutal stream of fire at Leonard.
14:17Watch out.
14:18I cried out.
14:19I hated Leonard, but I didn't want him to die here.
14:22But the scream I expected never came.
14:24Leonard just narrowed his eyes.
14:26His pupils contracted into needle-thin slits.
14:29He released a pressure beyond Ember's.
14:32It was the pure dominance of an apex predator.
14:34Ember's flames hit an invisible wall mid-air, and disintegrated, drained, and trembling.
14:41Ember whimpered, and shrank back into the bag.
14:44Leonard reached out, snatched the bag away, and lifted it one-handed like it weighed nothing.
14:48Trying to torture your own dad?
14:50You've been spoiling them.
14:51He shot me an icy look.
14:52Let's go upstairs.
14:53Unless you want security watching.
14:55Back at the apartment, I sat on the couch like I was waiting for a sentence.
14:59Leonard tossed the bag onto the rug.
15:00The zipper opened, and Noctis and Ember scrambled out, not daring to move.
15:05They curled into tight coils.
15:06Leonard poured himself a whiskey, his tone casual.
15:10Sasha, do you think you gave birth to monsters?
15:12I bit my lip, as tears began to well up.
15:14Aren't they?
15:15They're like beasts and breed fire.
15:18Researchers will make them lab subjects.
15:20Come on.
15:21Leonard looked like he'd just heard a joke.
15:23He set the glass down and slowly unbuttoned his shirt.
15:25What are you doing?
15:26I shrank back.
15:27He ignored me, took off his shirt, and turned around.
15:30I gasped.
15:31The tattoo across his back came alive.
15:34Golden scales surfaced beneath his skin.
15:37As he turned, the golden scales on his chest faded slowly.
15:41We are divine by nature, not monsters.
15:43His slit pupils glowed.
15:45My sons carry the purest bloodline.
15:47Who would dare take them?
15:48I was speechless.
15:50So, so he's also.
15:51Noctis and Ember seemed to sense their own kind, lifting their heads and hissing happily.
15:56Their tails slapping against the floor.
15:58I had barely recovered from shock.
16:01When the light in the living room flickered, the light went out instantly, and the place
16:04went completely dark.
16:06Flashes of lightning occasionally lit up the living room.
16:09Leonard's gaze suddenly shifted.
16:11His languid mocking look was gone completely.
16:13Instead, his gaze was murderous.
16:15He ordered me to go to a corner with the babies.
16:17Suddenly, a glinting dagger appeared in his hand.
16:20What's up?
16:21I fumbled anxiously, carried the dragons, and hid behind the couch.
16:25Those old geezers were quick.
16:27They couldn't wait to get rid of Leonard's airs.
16:29Just then, the shadow on the floor started contorting.
16:32The shadows of the coffee table and couch turned into sharp blades and hurtled toward
16:37Leonard.
16:38He swiftly waved the dagger.
16:39Streaks of golden light flashing as all the blades shattered.
16:43But the shadows kept emerging from every gap and corner.
16:46The baby's cries came from the room next door.
16:48A shadow sneaked into the room through the gap.
16:51No.
16:51I shouted in shock and wanted to rush over to save them.
16:54But Leonard held me back.
16:55He asked me to stay put.
16:57Just as the shadow was about to enter the room, Noctis suddenly moved.
17:01It broke free from my embrace and dashed out like a shot.
17:05Instead of breathing fire, it only opened its mouth.
17:08Its mouth wasn't big, but it suddenly started sucking everything in.
17:11The aggressive shadow seemed to have met its rival.
17:15It froze in midair.
17:17The shadow tried to escape, but Noctis refused to let it go.
17:20Noctis swallowed the hideous shadow and burped in satisfaction, its belly bulging.
17:25Noctis licked its lips.
17:26It turned and stared at the other shadows on the floor, as if ready for a feast.
17:32Right then, the other shadow stopped moving.
17:34The killer in the dark seemed shocked.
17:36The shadows he controlled had become Noctis' food.
17:39Leonard chuckled and hurled the dagger.
17:43Toward the corner of the living room, a man in black stumbled forward.
17:47His thigh was covered in blood.
17:48Ember pounced on him excitedly, and breathed fire at that man's bottom.
17:52He cried.
17:53For help.
17:54Ten minutes later, the apartment lit up again.
17:56That killer had been dragged away by Leonard's men.
18:00The room was messy.
18:01Noctis lay on the couch, digesting what it had just devoured.
18:04Leonard stood by the window and gazed at the rain, his expression sullen.
18:08He turned around and looked at me.
18:09We gotta leave.
18:10Since the high council sent the killer here, it meant they were suspecting the baby's identities.
18:14A normal apartment couldn't keep them away.
18:15I held Ember in fear.
18:17Should I call the police?
18:19Leonard glared at me as if I were a fool.
18:21Could police handle the internal conflict between dragons?
18:23He walked up to me and stared at me condescendingly.
18:26He asked me to pack up and take the babies with me.
18:28Go back to Hillcastle.
18:30Hillcastle.
18:30Leonard's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
18:33Since they started this, he'd bring the real heirs home and make them give up completely.
18:37But the babies are innocent.
18:40Isn't it dangerous to take them there?
18:41Leonard said they'd die out there and that they'd only survive if he was around.
18:45The twins were the best replacements for my sons.
18:48I shivered in fear.
18:49He was such a scheming guy.
18:51Half an hour later, a line of bulletproof cars pulled up downstairs.
18:54The dragons were in my bag.
18:56The maid carried the two babies into the car.
18:58The cars drove in the rain and headed for the legendary castle on the dragon vein.
19:03Though dangerous, it was my only way out.
19:05Hillcastle was on a mountain in the suburbs of Jeston.
19:08It looked more like an eerie prison than a castle.
19:11The cars drove past the metal gates.
19:13The servants in black stood on both sides.
19:16Everyone was wearing a mask.
19:18The atmosphere was suffocating.
19:20Leonard gripped my hand before we got out of the car.
19:23His palm was burning.
19:24He told me,
19:25I'd be the lady of the house and the dragon's mom.
19:29It was a sin to be weak here.
19:30I took a deep breath and adjusted my backpack.
19:33Noctis and Ember were sleeping inside.
19:35The maid carried the twins and followed us anxiously.
19:39We entered the hall and smelled a scent of sandalwood.
19:42A middle-aged lady with thick makeup walked down the stairs.
19:46She asked if I was the one Leonard brought home.
19:48Her sharp gaze swept across me and the babies.
19:52She said I was plain and too thin.
19:54Leonard didn't even spare her a glance and led me to the head of the table.
19:57He asked if Lily's broken finger had recovered.
20:01Lily's face turned pale instantly and she withdrew her left hand.
20:04Her eyes were filled with resentment, but she fell silent.
20:07I shivered.
20:08Leonard was more powerful in this family than I had ever imagined.
20:11The dinner was the first challenge.
20:13The Hill family members sat on both sides of the table.
20:16Their gazes were intimidating, as if they were eyeing their prey.
20:19The maid was carrying the two babies.
20:21As if sensing the hostility around them, they started crying.
20:24A burly young man slammed the table and stood up.
20:26He yelled for the babies to stop crying.
20:28Fiddling with a table knife, he stared at the babies maliciously.
20:32He asked Leonard if the babies were his.
20:34He said they looked ordinary and cried like human babies.
20:37He stood up and walked up to the maid.
20:39He wanted to squeeze the babies cheeks.
20:41He wanted to see if they were weak as well.
20:43The maid backed away.
20:44I jumped to my feet and shielded the babies.
20:46Stop it.
20:47I didn't give birth to them, but I promised to keep them safe.
20:51He asked if I pitied them.
20:52He spun the table knife.
20:55He said he was trying to check if their dragon nature awoke.
20:58As he said that, he spun the knife and aimed it right at my chest.
21:02Leonard held a glass of wine.
21:03His expression cold.
21:05He stayed put.
21:06I knew he was forcing me to make a move.
21:09Gritting my teeth, I was about to fight back.
21:11But my backpack suddenly shook violently.
21:13Whoosh!
21:14A whistling sound cut through the air.
21:16Tom waved the table knife and seemed to have hit something invisible.
21:20Plank!
21:20The steel table knife broke into two pieces.
21:23Tom shrieked and stepped backward while holding his wrist.
21:26Suddenly, there was a deep claw mark on his wrist.
21:29A layer of black frost formed around his wound, emitting a cold mist.
21:32Tom cried out, fearing someone would kill him.
21:35The hall fell silent.
21:37Everyone stared at me in shock.
21:38There was nothing around me.
21:40Only I knew Noctis had extended its claw through the opening of the backpack.
21:44It moved so fast that no one could see it.
21:47I tried to stay calm and stared at Tom.
21:50Is this how your family treat your guests?
21:51You even tried to harm the babies.
21:53How dare you?
21:53Leonard finally set his glass down.
21:55A satisfied smile crossed his face.
21:57He clapped.
21:57It wasn't loud, but it hit the people's chests like a hammer.
22:01Leonard said his sons hated Tom.
22:03He glanced at my backpack with a meaningful look.
22:05He warned Tom that he'd suffer worse if he did that again.
22:08Tom stared at the black frost spreading on his wrist and looked terrified.
22:12It was a wound caused by a high-tier dragon.
22:14Normal medicine couldn't treat it.
22:15Scram!
22:16Tom covered his wrist and fled the hall.
22:18The rest of them remained silent and held their breath.
22:21The castle looked more eerie at night.
22:23Leonard and I stayed in the suite on the highest floor.
22:25Just as the door closed, Noctis and Ember emerged from the backpack.
22:29Maybe because they had returned home, they seemed very excited.
22:33Ember rolled on the carpet and kept breathing fire.
22:36Noctis rested by the window and raised its head toward the mountain.
22:39As if listening to something, they had sensed it.
22:41Leonard stood by the window, gazing at the mountain in the dark.
22:44It was a forbidden ground, where dragons that failed to awaken were buried.
22:47It was the nexus of Dragon Vein.
22:49Dragon Vein?
22:49I fed Ember some jerky and asked curiously.
22:52The hills had stood strong for a century because of it.
22:55Leonard turned around and looked conflicted.
22:57It had to be nurtured.
22:58Every 20 years, the Hill family would select the strongest heir to go into the forbidden ground.
23:03They'd be invincible if they survived.
23:04But they would die if they failed.
23:06Startled, I held Ember tight.
23:08You, you want them to go in?
23:09They're barely a week old.
23:11It's not that I want it, but they must go in.
23:13Leonard pointed at Noctis' scales.
23:15I took a closer look and gasped instantly.
23:17Blood was seeping through the gaps between the black scales.
23:22It was trembling slightly.
23:24It seemed to be in great pain.
23:25They were growing, and their nature was powerful.
23:28They didn't get enough nutrients, so they were born weak.
23:30Without replenishing their energy at the Dragon Vein, they would explode and die.
23:34I panicked upon hearing Leonard's words.
23:36Hurry, they must go now.
23:38It broke my heart to see Noctis curled up in pain.
23:41Leonard held me back by the shoulders.
23:43Members of the High Council were guarding the door.
23:46Leonard could only open the gates during tomorrow's memorial ceremony.
23:49But Noctis, it'd be fine.
23:51Leonard took out a glimmering crimson pearl and put it into Noctis' mouth.
23:55It was a fragment of his inner core.
23:58Noctis seemed calmer after taking the pearl, but it was still breathing rapidly.
24:02I couldn't sleep all night.
24:03I held Noctis in my arms and comforted it.
24:05Leonard was awake too.
24:06He sat on the couch near the bed and wiped the dagger he had been carrying with him.
24:10His gaze was scaring.
24:11The next morning, the bell rang out through the castle.
24:14The ceremony had begun.
24:15I wore a formal black dress and hid the two dragons in my wide sleeves.
24:19Leonard had someone customize the dress.
24:21The maid carried the babies.
24:23They were sacrifices.
24:25We went to the altar at the back.
24:26A few old men had been waiting there.
24:28They were members of the High Council and the ones in power.
24:32Caleb stared intently at the maid behind me.
24:35His voice was hoarse and piercing.
24:37He told us to toss the babies into Dragon Pool to confirm who they were.
24:41I saw a pool with boiling green acid.
24:45It was more like a pool used to dissolve corpses.
24:47Noctis and ember might be fine, but the babies would be dead if they were thrown inside.
24:53Caleb ordered the babies thrown in.
24:55Two expressionless guards, dressed in black, stepped forward and took the babies from the maid.
25:01The babies' cries echoed through the altar.
25:03The maid was pushed and slumped to the ground in fear.
25:06Stop.
25:06Are you crazy?
25:07That's murder.
25:08I didn't care about my sleeves and rushed forward to stop them.
25:11But Tom blocked my way.
25:13Murder?
25:13His gaze was full of malice and joy.
25:16He said it was the Hill family's rule.
25:18If the babies were real dragons, the purity potion in the pool would boost their power.
25:21If they were fake, they would be doomed.
25:23When I saw the guards hold the babies, above the boiling green acid, my heart almost stopped.
25:30Leonard, save them.
25:31I turned to look at Leonard.
25:32My voice was trembling.
25:33Leonard stood still.
25:35As the wind blew his trench coat, he watched everything coldly until the guards let go of the babies.
25:40Enough!
25:40His voice wasn't loud, but it was impactful.
25:43The guards seemed to have been hit in the chest and were sent flying.
25:46The babies were flung into the air and caught by a figure behind Leonard, who had appeared in the garage
25:52earlier.
25:53Leonard adjusted his sleeves nonchalantly.
25:55Caleb was eager to get rid of the babies.
25:57Leonard straightened his sleeves nonchalantly.
25:59He wanted a full check, but opposed tossing fake airs into Dragon Pool.
26:04Everyone was shocked.
26:05Fake airs?
26:06He admitted it himself.
26:07Caleb condemned me for misleading the people and said that I should be executed.
26:12The others were gloating over this.
26:14Tom drew a dagger from his waist, eager to kill me.
26:17Be patient.
26:18Leonard walked up to me and held my waist, then whispered to me,
26:21Let them out.
26:22This would be a feast for the dragons.
26:24I took a deep breath and raised my arms.
26:26The two dragons, who had been impatient, slid down my sleeves.
26:31Someone laughed and said those were lizards.
26:33Noctis and Ember, who were weak and in pain, didn't seem that powerful.
26:37They curled up and shivered on my palm.
26:40Tom laughed, doubting the kids were Leonard's.
26:43Two mutated lizards.
26:45Tom chided us for fooling the High Council.
26:47The crowd couldn't stop laughing.
26:49Caleb's face turned livid.
26:50He thought everything was absurd.
26:52He ordered to throw us and the lizards into the pool.
26:55Leonard proposed letting them into the pool.
26:57He suddenly held my hand and flung it toward the pool.
27:01As I exclaimed, Noctis and Ember were thrown into the boiling pool.
27:06When they fell into the pool, green waves rippled across the surface.
27:09Everyone craned their necks, eager to see the acid reduce the lizards to bones.
27:14However, they heard no screams.
27:16The boiling water seemed to settle.
27:18A huge whirlpool was formed in the middle of the pool.
27:21The crowd was shocked to see the pool water reducing.
27:24I stared at the bottom.
27:26The green liquid turned clear gradually.
27:29Two glowing orbs formed in the middle of the whirlpool.
27:33One of them was black.
27:34And one of them was red.
27:36It sounded like they were gulping.
27:38Noctis and Ember were drinking the Acidic Purity Potion.
27:41As the liquid reduced, their bodies began to change drastically.
27:44Their tiny bodies had grown to about three feet in length.
27:47Their dull scales had turned shiny and sharp.
27:50The bump on Noctis' head split open.
27:52And a pair of dragon horns emerged.
27:55The scales on Ember's back flared open.
27:57And a pair of flaming wings spread out.
27:59The altar was instantly engulfed by a formidable primordial energy.
28:02Those relatives, who were laughing earlier, turned pale instantly and started quivering.
28:06Someone even fell to their knees.
28:08Caleb said ancestral power awoke.
28:11He dropped his walking stick on the floor.
28:13His feelings were mixed.
28:14With tears in his eyes.
28:16The Hill family finally had real dragons.
28:18A deafening roar of the dragons rang out, shattering all the glasses around the altar.
28:23Two gigantic figures shot up, kicking up a cloud of mist.
28:25Noctis was more than three feet tall now.
28:27Its black scales glistened, accentuating its cold presence.
28:30Ember was shrouded in flame.
28:32It spread its wings, looking like a demon.
28:35They circled from above, as they stared coldly at the insignificant humans below.
28:39They gradually descended from the sky, then stopped behind Leonard and me.
28:43Noctis lowered its head and nuzzled against my cheek.
28:45Tom, who had been arrogant earlier, already collapsed to the ground.
28:49He had wet his pants.
28:50I glanced at the dragons, then at the hills, who were quivering in fear.
28:54I couldn't help feeling shocked.
28:56Did they pass the trial?
28:57Leonard swept his gaze across everyone.
29:00He asked coldly, if anyone was still doubtful about the dragons.
29:03Everyone fell dead silent.
29:05Leonard suggested to set the rules properly.
29:07He held my hand and walked to the highest spot of the altar.
29:10It was a spot meant for the head of the family.
29:12Noctis and Ember followed behind.
29:13Scared, everyone hung their heads.
29:15Leonard named me the family matriarch.
29:17His voice wasn't loud, but it echoed through the place.
29:20He made me his voice.
29:22Disrespecting me defies the dragons.
29:24No way.
29:25Just then, someone objected.
29:27It was Caleb.
29:28Though he was terrified, his greed had made him lose his sanity.
29:31Even though Noctis and Ember were pure dragons, they should be raised by the High Council,
29:36instead of an outsider like me, so that they wouldn't go astray.
29:39He said I had no right.
29:40Before Leonard said anything, Noctis, who was behind me, suddenly moved.
29:44It opened its mouth widely and bit the altar in front of Caleb.
29:49With a loud crack, the marble top shattered into pieces.
29:54Noctis spat out the crushed stones and fixed its gaze on Caleb.
29:57It let out a deep growl, as if threatening to bite Caleb after this.
30:02Caleb rolled his eyes and passed out.
30:04Noctis and Ember had spoken on Leonard's behalf.
30:07Leonard smiled and looked at me, affectionately.
30:10He said we were going home for a meal.
30:12I took a deep breath and straightened my back.
30:15From then on, my life was about to change completely.
30:18I was the dragon's mom and the matriarch of this empire.
30:22We returned to our room and closed the doors.
30:25With white smoke, Noctis and Ember shrunk back to about the length of a forearm.
30:31I darted forward and caught them with the hem of my dress.
30:35They are tired.
30:36I caressed their heads.
30:38Noctis nuzzled against my palm, struggling to stay awake.
30:40Ember yawned, exhaling a plume of smoke.
30:43Then, it curled up and fell asleep.
30:45I looked at the two cuties in my arms.
30:48Leonard walked up to me and removed his coat.
30:50He looked at the dragons with a gentle look.
30:53Don't spoil them.
30:54They had barely passed the trial.
30:56I rolled my eyes at him.
30:57He set high hopes.
30:58They were only a week old.
30:59Leonard sat on the bed and removed his tie.
31:02They were his sons.
31:03What happened today was temporary.
31:05Those old men would do something worse once they recovered.
31:08How dare they try to hurt us again?
31:09Leonard sneered.
31:11His golden eyes looked alluring.
31:12Anyone from the hills would try to challenge us if we weren't dead.
31:16Should we run away then?
31:17I held the dragons.
31:19Leonard arched a brow and held the back of my head, forcing me to look at him.
31:23He said I could never escape.
31:25After burying the dragons, we would only be safe.
31:28When we were in power, he suddenly unbuttoned his shirt to reveal the golden dragon on his chest.
31:34I took a good look.
31:35It wasn't a tattoo.
31:37They were golden scales that grew on his body.
31:39Leonard was Goldrin, the king.
31:41He pointed at Noctis, who was asleep.
31:43Noctis and Ember were rare mutants.
31:45The black killed, the red destroyed.
31:47Noctis seemed to have heard him, so it shook its tail.
31:50The elders feared losing their power.
31:52Leonard said the hill's heirs were unbeatable and superior.
31:56What? What about the replacements?
31:58I pointed at the two babies sleeping next door.
32:01Leonard asked to keep them and narrowed his eyes.
32:03The high council would pull all kinds of tricks.
32:05It wasn't an issue for the hills to raise the babies.
32:08I nodded.
32:09Leonard lay down and held the dragons and me in his arms.
32:12He told us to sleep.
32:14The following days, it seemed calm in the castle.
32:17All food sent here would be tested with a silver needle.
32:20On the third night, Tom suddenly came.
32:22His hands were bandaged, and he forced a fake smile.
32:25An old servant behind him was holding a purple pot.
32:28Tom apologized and said,
32:30Caleb had the soup prepared.
32:32It looked rich and was aromatic.
32:35Noctis and Ember were playing with yarn balls.
32:37They looked up at once.
32:38They're not hungry.
32:40I rejected, Tom said.
32:42Turning Caleb down would be disrespectful.
32:45The Drake Herb boosted energy.
32:48Ember's eyes lit up at the mention of Drake Herb.
32:51It wanted to fly over, but Noctis hit it with its tail.
32:55Noctis stood at a distance from the soup and took a whiff.
32:59Suddenly, its scales flared up, and it growled in disgust.
33:03Then, it turned its back to Tom and farted.
33:06Tom's face instantly darkened.
33:09You're asking for it.
33:10He looked vicious.
33:11But with Leonard here, he did nothing in the end.
33:14He threw the soup to the ground and left.
33:16I'll get you back.
33:17The bowl shattered, soup splashing on the floor.
33:19Black smoke rose the moment the soup touched the carpet, creating a huge hole.
33:24I shivered.
33:25That wasn't just any soup.
33:27It was poison.
33:28Had Ember drank the soup?
33:29Hearing the commotion, Leonard came out from the study.
33:32When he saw the hole on the floor, the air grew heavy.
33:35How dare he?
33:35Looks like I wasn't harsh enough.
33:37He pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
33:39Do it.
33:39Cut off the second branch's overseas funding chain.
33:42And cripple Tom's other hand.
33:43However, the high council retaliated viciously.
33:47Late that night, the castle fell into an eerie silence again.
33:50This time, not even the sound of insects could be heard.
33:52I was half asleep.
33:53When I suddenly felt a tight pressure on my chest.
33:56When I opened my eyes, I was horrified to find a massive shadow on the ceiling.
34:00It wasn't lifeless.
34:02It was writhing like a living swamp.
34:04Slowly dripping thick black liquid.
34:06Leonard.
34:07I couldn't make any sound.
34:08The shadow lunged down, targeting Noctis and Ember in my arms.
34:12This was Umbral, the high council's top assassin.
34:14Physical attacks were useless to it.
34:16At that critical moment, Noctis, who feigned sleep, snapped its eyes open.
34:20Its golden eyes glowed terrifyingly bright in the dark.
34:23Facing the oncoming Umbral, it didn't panic at all.
34:26It looked excited.
34:27It didn't breathe fire or use claws.
34:29Instead, it opened its mouth and let out a silent roar that thundered through the mind.
34:34Noctis remained small, but at that moment, the phantom of an ancient dragon appeared behind it.
34:39The phantom opened its mouth wide, trying to absorb Umbral.
34:43The once ferocious Umbral let out a piercing scream, trying to escape.
34:47It raked across the ceiling.
34:49But to Noctis, that was nothing.
34:52With a soft slurp, Noctis swallowed Umbral.
34:56Along with all the evil energy it carried.
34:58After eating, Noctis licked its lips, unsatisfied.
35:01It even rubbed its slightly bulging belly.
35:03Then it oozed some dark light.
35:05Its originally dark scales turned even darker.
35:08A faint, haunting dark sheen flickered.
35:10Its shadow ability had evolved.
35:11Looks like the High Council just helped you.
35:14At some point, Leonard was leaning against the headboard.
35:17He poked Noctis' belly.
35:19Can you digest that?
35:20Noctis lifted its head proudly and burped.
35:22Then, it spat out a black bead, pushing it toward me.
35:26This is Umbral Pearl.
35:28What a surprise.
35:29Nice.
35:29Wear it, and no evil reaches you.
35:31I held the cool bead, looking out the window.
35:34It was dark, but I felt at ease.
35:36The High Council couldn't imagine that their Umbral would end up as my son's snack.
35:41The next morning, when Leonard and I walked into the dining hall, the tension was thick.
35:45Some of the elders looked ashen, their eyes sunken, like their life force had been drained.
35:49Especially Irwin, who controlled Umbral last night.
35:51He was slumped in a wheelchair, too weak to even hold a spoon.
35:54Umbral was bound to its master's life.
35:56Irwin's life was reduced after that night.
35:59Looks like none of you slept well.
36:00Leonard made me sit at the head of the table, before taking a seat beside me.
36:04That single gesture made my status clear.
36:06Leonard, you.
36:07You dare let those beasts hurt your elders?
36:09Irwin pointed at me tremblingly, his voice hoarse.
36:12Abominations.
36:12Leonard laughed coldly, piercing into his stake with force.
36:16Do I have to spell things out?
36:18You raised that filthy thing that barged into my room, right?
36:22Silence.
36:23Leonard stood up, taking out Dragon Seal, the symbol of the highest authority.
36:28He pushed it to me.
36:29Make it known.
36:30From today on, Sasha has the same authority as I do.
36:33She's on par with me.
36:34His gaze swept across the room.
36:36If anyone dares to scheme against her or my sons again, you'll end up like Umbral.
36:41I held the seal in my hand, feeling the sense of dependence coming from the dragons.
36:46I felt no fear.
36:47I was backed.
36:48In this cruel family.
36:50My sons were my supports.
36:52After that, Leonard brought me to the forbidden ground.
36:55It was a huge cave hidden behind a cliff, with two dragonstone pillars at the entrance.
37:00Even before getting close, I could already feel a vast energy.
37:05Dragon tomb.
37:06Leonard cut his finger and dripped blood onto the door.
37:08The heavy door slowly opened, and a wave of stale air surged out.
37:12Noctis and Ember perked up with excitement, as they darted out of my backpack.
37:16As if they had found their mother, they rushed into the darkness.
37:19We followed them.
37:20When I saw what was inside, I was shocked.
37:23There were piles of white skeletons.
37:26Some of them were massively long.
37:27Some were frozen in their final stance.
37:29At the very center of the cave was a pool of faint, golden glowing liquid.
37:33It was the handed-down dragon source.
37:34Our bloodline is powerful, but hard to awaken.
37:37These skeletons were the ancestors who had failed during their awakening.
37:41Though Noctis and Ember are gifted, they were born prematurely.
37:44They must undergo baptism.
37:46The dragons couldn't wait longer, and leapt into the golden pool.
37:50A miracle happened.
37:51The calm pool began to boil.
37:53Golden particles rose up, drilling into their scales.
37:57After that, they let out cries that sounded painful and exhilarated.
38:01Dark purple lighting-like patterns began to surface on Noctis' body.
38:05While Ember's wings grew larger, their edges burning with white hot flames.
38:09This is...
38:10Leonard stared at them.
38:11For the first time, he looked genuinely shocked.
38:14One core, two forces.
38:16Meaning, I asked, it's the highest form a dragon can reach.
38:19Leonard explained, trying to contain his excitement.
38:22Normally, a dragon has only one attribute, but they're influencing each other.
38:26They formed an energy circulation between them.
38:28Noctis rules darkness and devouring.
38:30Ember, light and destruction.
38:31They're destined to rule together.
38:33Just then, a stone tablet suddenly lit up.
38:36A phantom dragon burst out from it.
38:38It circled in the air, before lowering its head in submission toward the two.
38:42All dragons submit.
38:44The old fools in the high council are done for.
38:47Leonard wrapped an arm around my shoulder and laughed.
38:49Sasha, you gave me two monsters.
38:52Watching Noctis and Ember playing in the pool, I smiled.
38:55Monsters or not.
38:56To me, they were spoiled babies.
38:59None of us expected that while we were immersed in joy, someone was scheming against us.
39:05It was evening when we left.
39:07When we returned, I sensed something was off.
39:10It was too quiet.
39:11At this hour, the maid should have been feeding the human twins, or taking them to see the sunset.
39:16But the second floor was entirely silent.
39:19Not a single maid was in sight.
39:21Strange.
39:22Leonard's gaze sharpened as he rushed toward the nursery.
39:24The door was open.
39:25It was a mess.
39:26The maid lay unconscious in a pool of blood.
39:28The cradle was empty, and the human twins were gone.
39:30There was a blood-stained note on the table, with crooked handwriting on it.
39:34If you want the heirs alive, have Sasha bring the dragon tomb's key to the abandoned factory
39:38in the west at midnight.
39:39Alone.
39:40Bring those two monsters and we'll kill them.
39:42My head buzzed.
39:43Idiots.
39:44Leonard stared at the note dangerously.
39:46How dare they?
39:47What now?
39:48Sweat covered my palms.
39:49Even if they're not the heirs, they're still humans.
39:51They took the hidden place of our kids.
39:53We save them, of course.
39:54He said coldly.
39:55But since they specifically asked for you, we'll play along.
39:58Just then, Noctis suddenly rubbed itself against my face, making a strange sound.
40:02It jumped down, twisting its body like it was trying to imitate something.
40:07In front of Leonard and I, Noctis scales began to retract.
40:11Limbs stretched out, gradually forming the outline of a human body.
40:14In just a few seconds, a little boy appeared on the carpet.
40:17However, his thorns hadn't fully disappeared, and he still had a tail.
40:24Not to be outdone, Ember burst into a puff of red smoke.
40:28A chubby little kid appeared.
40:29His wings hadn't retracted either, as they flapped awkwardly.
40:33What?
40:34I was stunned.
40:34What happened?
40:35The baptism worked.
40:36Leonard crouched down, pinching Noctis' cheek, only to get swatted.
40:41It was imperfect.
40:42But with thicker clothes and hats, it's almost there.
40:45Noctis opened his mouth, his voice cute but icy.
40:48Mom, save them.
40:49I want to eat the bad guys.
40:50Ember immediately nodded.
40:52I want to burn them.
40:54My heart jolted.
40:55Even though they weren't human, they had spent days with the human twins.
40:58All right.
41:00Leonard stood up, taking hooded children's sweatshirts from the wardrobe, and tossed them
41:04to the kids.
41:04Let me take you to the outside world then.
41:07Sasha, take them to the factory.
41:09You mean.
41:09A cruel smile curled at the corner of his lips.
41:12Let them go in as hostages.
41:13Surprise those kidnappers.
41:15At midnight, the wind blew hard at the factory.
41:18I carried two suitcases.
41:20Two kids in black hoodies followed behind me.
41:23I'm here.
41:23On the second floor.
41:25Several masked men looked down at me.
41:27The human twins were hanging over a huge barrel.
41:30Their mouths were stuffed, and they were crying.
41:32The money and the key are here.
41:34Let the babies go.
41:35Relax, Mrs. Hill.
41:36The leader grinned viciously.
41:37Bring those two up here.
41:39Let us check the goods.
41:40I patted the kids and told them to go on.
41:44Noctis and Ember nodded.
41:45Before walking up the stairs, they kept their heads lowered, covering most of their faces.
41:51They looked like they were scared.
41:52A kidnapper grabbed them and yanked their hoods off.
41:55Let's see what these so-called heirs look like.
41:57When the hoods came off, his hand froze.
41:59Under the dim light, Noctis stared at him coldly.
42:03He bared his mouth, revealing his fine, sharp fangs.
42:06Mister, does your head taste good?
42:08At the same time, Ember's hoodie burst apart.
42:10Blazing wings spread wide open.
42:12Holy crap, monster.
42:14Before he could finish, Noctis had already bitten his wrist.
42:17Ember blasted a stream of fire that snapped the ropes.
42:20Leonard's shadow guards appeared, catching the falling babies.
42:23Now, do it.
42:25I ordered.
42:25It became a slaughterhouse.
42:27Noctis and Ember tore through the crowd.
42:29The guns in those kidnappers' hands were just like toys.
42:32When we had the upper hand, something changed.
42:35Especially made a bullet with a strange purple glow shot out of the darkness.
42:39It targeted my forehead.
42:40It was so fast that Noctis couldn't react in time.
42:43Sasha, Sasha.
42:44A tall figure suddenly stood in front of me.
42:46It was Leonard.
42:47The bullet went through his shoulder, with toxic mist.
42:50He groaned and dropped to his knees.
42:52The poison was potent.
42:53It corroded his scales.
42:55The wound turned black.
42:56Leonard.
42:57I shrieked as I rushed over to cover his wound.
42:59Green fluid gushed out.
43:00Don't, don't cry.
43:01His golden eyes began to lose focus.
43:04This is a poison made for dragons.
43:07His breathing was getting weaker.
43:08Suddenly, I recalled the doctor saying my blood had mutated.
43:11I carried strong healing power.
43:12I was the dragon mother.
43:14My blood was the best antidote.
43:15I quickly grabbed a dagger from the ground and slashed my palm.
43:19Then, I pressed it against his lips.
43:20Drink, hurry.
43:22My blood flowed into his mouth.
43:24The black energy around him faded.
43:28The charred wound started to grow fresh tissue, healing rapidly.
43:31Leonard's eyes snapped open.
43:33His golden pupils were brighter than usual.
43:35He grabbed the back of my head and kissed me, still tasting like blood.
43:39Then, he pulled me behind him.
43:40How dare they target my woman?
43:42He stood up, looking straight at a distant tower.
43:45The mastermind was hiding there.
43:47He finally decided to show himself.
43:49With a furious roar, his clothes tore apart.
43:51Scales spread across his body.
43:53He just turned into a half-dragon combat form.
43:56Noctis and Ember sensed their father's rage and turned to their true form.
44:00The three of them flew toward the sniper's position.
44:03Caleb didn't expect Leonard to break the poison and that the young dragons would be this terrifying.
44:08He used all his cards.
44:10Over 10 umbrals.
44:11Heavy firearms.
44:12But they were useless.
44:14Noctis opened its mouth and started devouring the umbrals.
44:17Ember turned into a flying bomber, blasting the weapons into a sea of flames.
44:21Leonard appeared in front of Caleb in a flash.
44:23He grabbed Caleb by the throat, lifting him up easily.
44:26Leonard, spare me.
44:28I'm your uncle.
44:29Caleb struggled.
44:30He was now desperate.
44:32I only wanted to borrow those kids' inner core.
44:34For the family.
44:35For the family?
44:36Leonard snickered.
44:37So you think you can kill my wife and kids?
44:39Don't kill him.
44:39I shouted.
44:40Leonard froze and looked at me in confusion.
44:43I stared at Caleb, who had nearly destroyed my family.
44:46Quick death isn't enough.
44:47Throw him into the dragon pool.
44:49Let him feel what it feels like to be tortured.
44:51He can guard the dragon tomb for life.
44:52Leonard smiled.
44:53That meant approval.
44:55All right.
44:56At this moment, Caleb suddenly detonated every bomb hidden on him.
45:00We'll die together.
45:01With that, everything exploded.
45:04Noctis, Ember.
45:05I yelled in terror.
45:06At the last second, Noctis and Ember spiraled together in midair.
45:10Black and red light fused into a massive formation.
45:13They forcibly swallowed the explosion.
45:15When the smoke cleared, Leonard held me, unharmed.
45:18Noctis and Ember were dusty.
45:20Some of their scales were blown off.
45:21But they were still energetic, as they huffled angrily at the ruins.
45:25As for Caleb, he had reduced to ashes.
45:28The dawn arrived, falling across the ruins.
45:30Leonard held me close, watching Noctis and Ember playing.
45:33Then he uttered.
45:34It's over.
45:35No one will lay a finger on you again.
45:37Three years later, the castle was full of white roses.
45:40Leonard and I held another wedding.
45:43It practically shook the elite circle.
45:46Everyone kept talking about the mysterious twin flower boys.
45:48In the lounge.
45:49Mom, my tail won't go in.
45:51Three-year-old Noctis was wearing a tailored suit.
45:54He looked distressed as he pointed at his tail.
45:56Nervous, he couldn't control his human form.
45:59What about Ember?
46:00Whenever he got nervous, he would hiccup.
46:03Each one came with sparks.
46:04Don't be nervous.
46:05Breathe.
46:06I smiled as I fixed their bow ties, before tucking Noctis' tail into his pants.
46:10Today is a big day.
46:11You are the stars.
46:12Just then, the door opened.
46:14Leonard walked in wearing a white custom suit.
46:16He looked handsome.
46:16He came over and picked up the boys, his gaze gentle.
46:20Are you ready, my lovely bride?
46:22The wedding began.
46:23I took his arm and walked down the carpet.
46:26Guests filled both sides.
46:27The human twins we adopted were now plump and healthy.
46:30They were clapping happily.
46:32As the flower boys.
46:33Noctis and Ember looked serious.
46:35A spark would still slip out though.
46:37But to the guests, it just looked like magic.
46:39During the ring exchange, Leonard dropped to one knee and kissed my hand.
46:42Sasha, thank you for giving me a home.
46:44And thank you for taming us.
46:46I stared at him.
46:48Then at the kids who were stealing candies with their tails.
46:50I was touched.
46:51This happiness was beyond words.
46:53Sunlight poured over the castle.
46:55A dragon patterned flag fluttered.
46:57This was a legend of dragons and also our fairy tale.
47:00A dragon patterned flag fluttered.
47:00A dragon patterned flag fluttered.
47:00Gracias.
