Reborn as the Sleeping Dragon's Bride Billionaire Romance
Transcript
00:00I was born with a blood scent that could make dragon lords lose control.
00:04Pure breeding blood, the rarest kind in 300 years.
00:08At my mating ceremony, I crawled past the sacred gold offerings and grabbed crown prince Caelan between his pants.
00:15This little whore could be a clingy breeder in the future.
00:20He was wrong. Caelan and I became enemies.
00:23For 10 years, I watched his dragon eyes learn to hate my scent.
00:27On my 18th birthday feast, the king called me before the throne.
00:31Freya, choose any dragon lord in Valeria. I will grant him to you.
00:36Before I could answer, Caelan's voice cut across the hall.
00:39I would rather be torn apart by wild dragon knees than mate her.
00:43Something inside me broke. Good. Then make him choke on it.
00:47Then I will leave his fate to the gods. Pay for the price, crown prince Caelan.
00:51I thought he didn't mean it. Our betrothal ceremony was beautiful, but Caelan never gave me a glance.
00:58Your scent makes me sick.
01:00Years passed. I gave him no air. The court stopped bowing.
01:04Dragonborn ladies spat in my food, ripped my gowns and called me a barren human leech.
01:09Caelan only smiled. Then I heard him say it.
01:12She forced this marriage. She deserves karma.
01:16No one should pity her.
01:18One week later, he threw me into the velvet quarter.
01:20A useless breeder belongs in a pleasure house.
01:24I died there, bloody and left like rotten meat. His figure was the last thing I saw. He never looked
01:30back.
01:30Then light split open. I woke on cold marble, gasping. I was reborn at my mating ceremony.
01:37Freya, choose any dragon lord in Valeria. I will grant him to you.
01:42The royal citadel. The feast. I would not risk my life on Caelan again. I took a deep breath.
01:48Your majesty. I respect the crown prince as someone I grew up with. Like a brother.
01:53I never wanted him. Not as a man. Not as a husband.
01:57My heart only belongs to dragon crook Lufician Dranmore. If I couldn't marry him, I'd go finish myself.
02:03The court exploded. I had refused Valeria's golden prince and chosen his uncle.
02:08The cursed black silver dragon. The most fierce dragon who destroyed wild dragonkins for 200 years.
02:20Lucian Dravenmore fell coma since year ago on the northern warfront.
02:24Hurt by an unseen blade with curse, the healers said he would never wake. I knew they were wrong.
02:30In my last life, Lucian woke during my third year in hellish marriage.
02:34When dragonborn ladies had cornered me in the kitchens, they laughed, tore my sleeves, and called me a barren human
02:40leech.
02:41Then a broken dragon rose from his wheeled chair.
02:44Lucian Dravenmore stood between us. Half crippled, but still terrifying. Back to now.
02:50Little one, marrying Lucian would waste your gift. Choose another lord, someone who can speak to you.
02:55I kept my forehead against the marble floor.
02:57Your majesty, I swore before the old gods. It is Lucian Dravenmore or no one.
03:02I hit my forehead on the floor. Once and once again. The court went quiet. Only left the sound of
03:08my bones crack.
03:09Queen Marianne smiled like she had been handed a gift.
03:12If the human girl wants a sleeping dragon, let her have him.
03:15So be it. Your bloodline is gone. Lucian cannot answer for himself. My queen will arrange the wedding for you
03:23two.
03:23I rose my bloody forehead and crumbling stood up. I am humbled beyond speech.
03:29I did not look at Caelan. I only felt his gold fire burning behind me. Let him burn. I would
03:35never choose him again.
03:36Lucian is way better than Caelan. Last life, though he's still weak, he's nice to me. I'll save him this
03:41time.
03:42We'll claw our way out of this shithole. Together.
03:44For three days, I slept like someone freed from a cage.
03:49Then came the knock at Ashbourne Hall.
03:51The queen commands your presence at the royal citadel tonight.
03:55My blood went cold.
03:56At dusk, Madam Corvin led me through the royal corridors.
04:01Dragonflowers scented the stone. Then she stopped and bowed.
04:05Your highness, crown prince.
04:07I lifted my head. It's Caelan.
04:20Caelan stepped into the lamplight. He looked exactly like a future king. Proud and untouchable. Beautiful in the cruel Valorian
04:27way.
04:27Your highness.
04:28He looked me over from crown to shoes, as if searching for the girl who used to chase him through
04:32these halls.
04:33That's all?
04:34In my last life, I knew his every habit. I baked honey cakes for him. I waited outside Crown Tower
04:39just to hand them over. He always tossed them to the palace drakes.
04:43Stop this pathetic chase, Freya. You are marrying my uncle now. Try to have some dignity.
04:49You disgust me.
04:50I am not chasing anyone. I was only telling the truth to your king father. I do not love you.
04:55Then you wandered into the royal family's private wing by accident?
04:58The queen summoned me. Ask Madam Corvin.
05:00His gold fire flared. So it was true. I had not come for him.
05:05My uncle is a corpse with a title. You may be a widow before your wedding bed even cools.
05:10Then I will be the happiest widow in Valoria.
05:14His pupils narrowed, then went black.
05:30Queen Marianne heard me out in silence. And before I had even finished my audience with her, my wedding to
05:36Lucien Dravenmore was set for one week later.
05:40Dravenmore's black silver banners stretched across the road as Gareth Thorne bowed before me.
05:44Lady Ashborough, Darrenmore receives you with honor.
05:48In my last life, Crown Tower never gave me this much respect. Some nobles called it widowhood with a title.
05:54I ignored them.
05:55Dravenmore had already given me more honor than Crown Tower ever did.
05:58When I reached Dravenmore keep, Gareth Thorne led me straight to the bridal chamber.
06:03Lucien Dravenmore lay on the bed, pale and silent. But even unconscious, he did not look weak.
06:08His sharp features, silver black hair and quiet dragon pressure, made him seem less like a dying man and more
06:13like a sleeping dragon.
06:14My lady, I prepared another room for you.
06:16I looked at Lucien, my heart steady despite the tension.
06:19No. He is my husband now. I'll stay here.
06:23The room went silent. After they left, I sat beside him. The air itself seemed to hold its breath.
06:28I leaned closer, feeling the subtle warmth of his body beneath the thin sheets.
06:33You're asleep anyway, so this doesn't count.
06:35I lowered my head and kissed him. His lips were warm. For a heartbeat, nothing happened.
06:39Then the air broke open. Dark pressure slammed through the room.
06:43Black, silver scales erupted along his neck.
06:46Windows cracked. His hand shot up and caught my throat. Not gentle, not soft.
06:50Dragon fire exploded from his body, scorching the ceiling and bed frame.
06:54I gasped, gripping his wrist.
06:55Lucien!
06:56His fingers burned against my skin, yet he didn't push me away.
07:18His eyes were still closed, but his grip was tightening. Black, silver flame tore across the ceiling.
07:24The bed frame split. I grabbed his wrist.
07:27It's me. It's Freya.
07:30His fingers burned against my skin, then the fire pulled back. His hand dropped.
07:34The room went dark. Outside, Dravenmore Keep erupted.
07:37Shouts. Running boots. Dragon flame lighting up the sky.
07:41Gareth broke through the door.
07:43My lady.
07:44I touched my neck. It was bruised.
07:46Lucien lay still again, but his breathing had changed.
07:49Deeper. Stronger.
07:50The curse had cracked, but whatever was underneath was not gentle.
07:53I didn't know if I had started to wake him up, or started something worse.
07:57By dawn, healers filled the hall.
07:59Gareth locked down the entire floor.
08:10No one tells the Royal Citadel what happened last night.
08:14The mate Flyme responded to the marriage bond.
08:16That's all anyone needs to know.
08:18The bruise on my neck was already dark.
08:20A healer offered to treat it.
08:22Leave it.
08:22I went back to Lucien's room.
08:24He was still.
08:25But the black, silver scales on his hand had not faded.
08:27His dragon blood was fighting something.
08:29The curse.
08:30The medicine.
08:31Maybe both.
08:32I sat beside him.
08:33I don't know if you can hear me, but I'm not leaving.
08:37His fingers moved. Barely.
08:39The news reached Crown Tower before noon.
08:41Caelan was sparring when a servant ran in.
08:43Your Highness, Dravenmore's mate, Flame, answered Freya last night.
08:47Caelan stopped mid-swing.
08:48The whole northern sky lit up.
08:51Goldfire burst from Caelan's palm.
08:53The training post shattered.
08:55He thought the wedding would humiliate me.
08:57Instead, all of Royal Citadel was talking about how Dravenmore's dragon blood had chosen a human bride.
09:02Princess Anya walked in.
09:04So it's true.
09:05She looked at the burned post.
09:07They say Freya looked more like a duchess than a widow.
09:10Careful, Caelan.
09:11People might think you're the one who got left behind.
09:15That afternoon, Caelan called his steward.
09:18The Ashborough war records we archived move them to the sealed vault and send a message to the Royal Pharmacy.
09:23Any requests from Dravenmore go through my office first.
09:33That afternoon, Caelan or from Wap.
09:37It's just working near stadiums.
09:37The faithful are the two great days.
09:40That according to Caelan that was limited to one day.
09:44So if it turns out to the Royal autopsy.
10:01The Axborough was the other day in May of the World it was just like a lispy scene.
10:02Agovic storm.
10:02It took plastic
10:23I put on Dravenmoor black and silver and walked straight into the main hall.
10:27Selene's housekeeper stepped in front of me.
10:29Lady Selene is waiting in the west parlor.
10:31Then she can come here.
10:32The servants froze.
10:33Davenmoor keep is not Selene Valvas' house, and I am not her guest.
10:37Gareth stood behind me.
10:38He said nothing.
10:39Every servant in the hall understood it.
10:41Gareth supported me as Lady Dravenmoor.
10:43Bring me Lucian's healer records, medicine ledgers, and night watch lists now.
10:46Selene arrived with a soft smile.
10:48Freya, you were married yesterday.
10:50Leave the household matters to me.
10:52This isn't household business.
10:53This is my husband's life.
10:54Selene kept smiling, but her eyes didn't.
10:56By sunset, I found the first problem in the medicine logs.
10:59Some herbs were not healing Lucian.
11:01They were suppressing his dragon blood.
11:03He wasn't too weak to wake.
11:04Someone was keeping him asleep.
11:06I needed the source records.
11:07Where the herbs came from.
11:08Who ordered them?
11:09The trail pointed to the royal pharmacy.
11:11I sent a rider to request the purchase records.
11:13The rider came back empty-handed.
11:15Crown Tower denied the request.
11:17They said all pharmaceutical inquiries from Dravenmoor require approval from the Crown Prince's office.
11:20I understood.
11:21Selene's confidence didn't come from Dravenmoor.
11:24It came from Crown Tower.
11:25That night, Selene heard I had found the local records.
11:28For the first time, she stopped smiling.
11:29Send Rowan.
11:30Let my son teach her what happens to lonely wives in this house.
11:57Rowan Vos waited outside my chamber door.
11:59He smelled of wine.
12:01Lady Dravenmoor.
12:02I stopped.
12:03Come on.
12:04Your husband can't even open his eyes.
12:06Don't waste your youth on a sleeping man.
12:09He stepped closer.
12:10Selene runs this keep.
12:12I am her son.
12:13You are just the human bride they sent to warm Lucian's bed.
12:16Then I slapped him.
12:17Servants rushed over.
12:18No one dared speak.
12:19Rowan wiped blood from his lip.
12:21My mother will hear about this.
12:23Good.
12:24Tell Lady Selene I saved her the trouble.
12:26His face twisted.
12:28My mother!
12:28Your mother failed to raise you.
12:31That makes it my problem now.
12:32I turned to the hall.
12:34Freya.
12:34Gareth.
12:35Put him in the lower water cell.
12:37By morning, maybe he'll remember whose keep this is.
12:40The guards moved toward Rowan.
12:42That was when the whole keep understood.
12:44I was Lady Dravenmoor.
12:46Below the keep, Rowan shook in freezing water.
12:48My mother knows about Lucian's medicine.
12:50He looked up, shaking.
12:52She knows who kept him asleep.
12:53And Crown Tower knows she knows.
13:21She knows how much Candace comes.
13:24She came to call him.
13:25I see.
13:39You are depressed.
13:40I love to be.
13:47How long is not late.
13:49I love you.
13:50Of course.
14:03At dawn, Gareth brought me Rowan's confession.
14:05He was drunk, but he said the medicine was switched and he said Crown Tower was involved.
14:10I looked at Lucian. The black silver scales on his hand had faded, but his fingers were warmer than before.
14:14Bring me every medicine log from the last year, and find me a healer who doesn't answer to Salona or
14:20the Royal Pharmacy.
14:22By breakfast, the hall was full. Servants stood with their heads down.
14:26Selina sat at the high table, calm as ever.
14:28Freya, you locked my son in a water cell over drunken words. Now you want to accuse me too?
14:33I want records. Household records are not toys for a new bride.
14:37I placed the medicine book on the table.
14:39Then explain this.
14:41Her smile stopped.
14:42Lucian's dose changed three months ago. The healer's seal is missing. The delivery mark belongs to your steward.
14:47Gareth, step beside me.
14:49From today on, no one touches Lucian's food, wine, or medicine unless I see it first.
14:53You think you can run, Darren Moore?
14:56No. I already am.
14:58A crash came from Lucian's chamber. We ran back. The medicine bowl had split in half.
15:02Black silver fire burned across the floor. Lucian's eyes were still closed, but his hand had crushed the bed rail.
15:07That evening, a sealed letter arrived from Crown Tower. Not a personal note. An official order with the royal stamp.
15:13Gareth read it aloud.
15:14By the authority of Crown Prince Caelan, a royal medical delegation will be dispatched to Dragonmore Keep
15:19to evaluate Duke Lucian's condition and review all medical arrangements currently in place.
15:23The room went quiet.
15:24When?
15:26Three days.
15:27I looked at the letter. If Caelan's doctors walked in here, they would take over Lucian's treatment,
15:31reverse everything I had changed, put Celine's people back in charge, and I couldn't refuse.
15:35He was using his nephew's health as the excuse.
15:38Then we have three days.
16:02Like, we have three days.
16:03To change our Caelan's system.
16:03We're trying to find the correct number of some of theแบฅm records.
16:05And the way that the people that we do, that the์ด๏ฟฝ' Attack sets up,
16:13the borders that we're getting from, that the continue of
16:14We're trying to wait.
16:14They're safe.
16:15They're safe.
16:16They're safe.

19:37.
19:38early. I locked the chamber door and sat beside Lucian. I can handle Selina. I can handle the
19:43servants and the whispers. But I can't fight your nephew and the crown at the same time. Not alone.
19:48His hand was warm. The scales pulsed. I need you to wake up. Silence. Then his fingers closed around
19:53mine. Freya. His dark gold eyes opened. Who came into my keep and thought he could question my wife
20:00for protecting me. Lucian sat up in bed. Black silver flame tore through the room. He looked at
20:04the bruise on my neck. Who did this? You. When your dragon blood broke through. He touched the bruise.
20:11Black silver light wrapped around my neck. It faded under his hand. Outside, every dragon torch in
20:15Dravenmore Keep lit at once. The whole northern sky burned silver. In Crown Tower, a rider burst through
20:21the gate. Your Highness, Dragon Ownmore's fire just lit the northern line. All of it. Kaelin stood up.
20:28The Duke is awake. Kaelin's cup shattered in his hand.

23:14.
23:21.
23:22The Royal Medical Delegation arrived before noon.
23:24They expected a sleeping Duke.
23:26They found Lucian Dravenmore seated in the main hall.
23:29He leaned on a cane.
23:30His face was pale.
23:31But black-silver pressure filled the room so hard the candles bent sideways.
23:35The late physician swallowed.
23:37Your Grace, Crown Prince Caelan sent us to review your treatment.
23:40Lucian looked at him.
23:41My nephew sends doctors into my keep without asking me.
23:44No one answered.
23:46The Crown is concerned for your health.
23:48My wife kept me alive while your prince tried to take control of my medicine.
23:52From today on, Dravenmore's healers answer to me and Lady Derenmore, no one else.
23:56The delegation left before sunset.
23:58Cรฉline watched from the upper hall, white-faced.
24:01That night, she sent a servant through the east gate with a sealed message.
24:04I watched him disappear into the dark road.
24:06I could stop him, but I didn't.
24:08I want to see who will answer.
24:09Later, Lucian found me by the chamber fire.
24:12How much did they make you carry alone?
24:14His jaw tightened.
24:17I'll start carrying it with you.
24:34You might try.
25:04The Reader is waters 8 to 7mates.
25:04Some kind of nฦฐแป›c behind the gak auge 54-5.
25:04I tried and he called.
25:04.
25:34.
26:05At dawn, Lucian ordered the ledgers sealed.
26:08Gareth brought iron boxes from Selene's office, tax books, supply lists, military payment rolls.
26:13By noon, the truth was on the table.
26:15Northern Rider pay was cut for eight months.
26:18Wintergrain was marked as delivered, but the storehouses never received it.
26:21He placed another page down.
26:23And this money went to the Gilded Den.
26:25Rowan's name was written beside the account.
26:27Selene gripped her sleeve.
26:28My husband died for this house.
26:30I raised my son here, I made sacrifices.
26:33Lucian looked at her.
26:35You sold my soldiers food and called it sacrifice?
26:38I protected Dravenmoor while you slept.
26:40No.
26:41You fed off it.
26:43The hall went silent.
26:45Rowan was dragged in, bruised and terrified.
26:48Mother, say something!
26:49Selene did not look at him. Lucian tapped the ledger.
26:52Rowan Vos goes to the dungeon until I decide his sentence.
26:56You can't do this to family!
26:57Family does not touch my wife, steal from my riders, or poison my house.
27:02The guards took him away.
27:05Selene Vox is removed from all household authority.
27:08She will remain under guard in the east wing.
27:10Then he turned to me.
27:12The accounts are yours now.
27:13Every servant in the hall dropped to one knee.
27:16For the first time, they were not kneeling because Lucian had woken.
27:19They were kneeling because I had won.
27:26The accounts are yours now.
27:37We're doing nothing to make a friend's without your hands.
27:59He looks super soft.
49:47Stay safe.
49:57And,
50:01and,
50:03We'll see you again.
50:03Good.
50:04His face changed as he read.
50:07Because now we know what they'll try to hide.
51:37Don't yell.
51:38I know it looks stupid.
51:40She pulled the cloth aside.
51:41Three copies.
