00:00Among the merfolk, golden and red scales are revered, yet I, the princess of the merfolk, am covered in pitch
00:05black scales.
00:06At my birth, my black scales detached from my body and spread uncontrollably.
00:11My weak mother queen was wrapped in them, her life essence drained away.
00:15Servants and sea beasts with low cultivation all perished without exception.
00:19Father King Merrick summoned the high priest.
00:21He lit a talisman and pressed it to my forehead, and all the scattered black scales instantly turned to ash.
00:26Everyone said I was an omen of misfortune.
00:28Even Father King wanted to run me through with a sword.
00:31My sister Alara threw herself in front of me without hesitation, gripping the sharp edge with her bare hand.
00:35Spare her, Father! She's just a newborn baby!
00:38She trembled in pain but refused to let go.
00:40My sister swore on her life that she would raise me to be a kind princess loved by all.
00:45Father King turned and left without a backward glance.
00:48Alara had once been the most celebrated golden-scale princess of the clan,
00:51but because she protected me, she endured cold scares and bullying from the servants.
00:56Yet she always bore it with a smile and said to me,
00:58As long as we sisters are together, that's all that matters.
01:02I was not as kind as my sister.
01:04Countless times, I wanted to rip out the spines of those snobbish servants,
01:07fashion them into a bone whip, and chop those bitches into pieces to fertilize the corals my sister grew.
01:11But to stay with Alara forever, I forced myself to act docile.
01:15Fate, however, had other plans.
01:17Kaelin Dracon, the youngest prince of the Sea Dragon clan, murdered his father and brothers and ascended her throne as
01:23the new king.
01:24All weaker tribes rushed to swear allegiance to him.
01:27Father King issued a decree immediately.
01:28The most noble golden-scaled princess would be sent to marry the Sea Dragon King.
01:33On the day the decree was announced, my sister took my hand and told me over and over where things
01:37were kept in the palace,
01:39which physician to see if I fell ill, as if she were arranging my entire life.
01:42But I heard none of it.
01:44I flung to her and cried,
01:45Alara, I don't want you to marry into the dragon house.
01:48Let's run away to a place where no one knows us and live our own lives, okay?
01:51Alara sighed softly and gently wiped away my tears.
01:54Be good, little Sierra.
01:56The Murphic are weak, and that's why we're bullied.
02:00If I can absorb the Dragon King's essence and transform into a dragon myself,
02:05I can protect all our people one day.
02:07I looked at the light shining in her eyes and gradually stopped crying.
02:10If this was what she wanted, I should not stand in her way.
02:13On the day of her wedding, her crimson wedding dress made her look noble and beautiful.
02:17To ease her mind, I said not a word and shed not a tear.
02:20It was only when the wedding palanquin vanished completely from sight
02:23that I realized my nails had dug deep into my palms,
02:26the metallic taste of blood spreading from my lips to my throat.
02:29After that, I prayed at the Sea Temple every day, hoping my sister would come back to see me.
02:34A year later, she'd finally return.
02:38But inside a small coffin, torn limb from limb,
02:41her body mangled beyond recognition.
02:46Lara, wake up.
02:47Sierra's here.
02:49Look at me.
02:50There was no response.
02:51I reached out frantically to grab her hand,
02:53wanting her to touch me and call me Little Sierra, like she used to.
02:56But all I felt was a cold, stiff, severed bone hand.
03:00Father King approached with a lantern.
03:01My sister's body was torn apart, covered in horrific bite marks.
03:05The golden scales she had been so proud of were gone, leaving only bloody craters as if they had been
03:09skinned alive.
03:11Father King gasped in shock, dropping the candlestick, and my sister's remains were swallowed by darkness once more.
03:16The white dragon envoy who had brought her back drawled lazily.
03:19The dragon king was attacked, and the princess sacrificed herself to shield him.
03:24Moved by her devotion, the king has ordered her body return.
03:27Liar.
03:27The wounds on her severed limbs were not from sword.
03:30They were the marks of sharp teeth, tearing at flesh.
03:32Her scales had been scraped off one by one with a knife.
03:35I did not cry or scream.
03:37I took off the candlestick and went to the sea temple.
03:39I had prayed day and night for my sister's happiness and safe return, but the gods had not helped me.
03:45She had died in such agony.
03:46I pulled the bone whip from its hiding place in the temple.
03:49It was made from the spines of 49 piranhas.
03:52I had hidden it away after promising my sister I would never kill again.
03:56Now it was time for her to see the light of day.
03:59Before leaving, I knocked over the candlestick and set the temple ablaze.
04:02If the gods would not help me, I would take matters into my own hands.
04:05For every piece of my sister that was taken, I would take a hundred from them.
04:09I walked to the White Dragon Envoy's quarters, and their mocking laughter drifted out to me.
04:13That merfish king is such a coward.
04:15He can see his daughter was tortured to death, but he doesn't dare say a word.
04:17They probably don't even know the Dragon King's favorite card.
04:19You've said she wanted a necklace made of golden scales,
04:21so that princess was skinned, scaled, and thrown into the piranha pool to suffer for three whole days before she
04:25died.
04:26When I went to the water dungeon to collect her body, the entire pool was red with blood.
04:30Their words cut like knives through my heart.
04:32There were more people who deserved to die than I had thought.
04:34I turned and stormed into Father King's palace.
04:36He and his ministers were discussing how to stabilize the situation.
04:39I pushed open the door, ignoring all their strange looks, and said,
04:43Father, I will go to marry the Dragon King in my sister's place.
04:48Even the smallest dragon is still a dragon.
04:50We are merely merfix.
04:51Everyone stared at me in disbelief.
04:53If we go to war, the best we can hope for is mutual destruction.
04:55I spoke calmly.
04:56Sending one princess to ensure the peace of thousands of our people.
05:00What is there to lose?
05:01Silence fell.
05:02They were clearly persuaded.
05:03Besides, they had all wanted me gone long ago.
05:06It was a win-win for me and for the Merfolk clan.
05:08Sure enough, after weighing the pros and cons, Father King agreed.
05:12You are truly the princess your sister raised.
05:14You have her grace.
05:16I will make sure you are married in grand style.
05:18It was the first time Father King had looked at me with approval instead of hatred,
05:21as if I had truly become the kind princess my sister had wanted me to be.
05:25But he had no idea what murderous intent lay beneath my docile exterior.
05:28I put on the exact same wedding dress my sister had worn and set off for that dragon palace
05:33that devoured people whole.
05:35My whole body trembled, not with fear, but with the thrill of impending revenge.
05:39I was led to the dragon king's bedchamber.
05:41People with varied expressions stood on either side.
05:43The black dragon king, Kaelin, sat on the couch, his eyes as dark and bottomless as his scales.
05:48Beside him sat his most beloved consort, Lysandra Frost, known as Lyssa.
05:52She held a chain in her hand, and at the other end was a half-human, half-beast piranha monster.
05:56The necklace made from my sister's scales was wrapped around the dragon's neck.
06:00In that instant, the killing intent in my heart surged, almost overwhelming me.
06:05Lyssa looked me up and down insolently and sneered,
06:07The merfish dare send another princess?
06:09The last one they sent was the most noble golden scaled, and she was at least somewhat useful.
06:15Why send a cursed thing covered with black scales this time?
06:18She released the chain, and the piranha monster bared its fangs and unmeted.
06:22Finally, I no longer had to hold back my anger.
06:24I pulled the bonewhip from my waist and struck the monster twice,
06:28once in the eye, once in the neck, ripping its flesh open.
06:31With a shrill scream, the monster fell to the ground, twitching.
06:34You cursed bitch!
06:36How dare you hurt my piranha that I've raised for 500 years!
06:39Lyssa screamed and drew a dagger, charging at me.
06:42I'll make you pay for this!
06:44Bitch!
06:45If you call me cursed just because I have black scales,
06:48then the dragon king also has black scales.
06:50Does that make him cursed too?
06:51Bitch!
06:52How dare you sow discord between me and his highness!
06:55She swung the dagger again, but clearly cut her off.
06:58Enough, Lyssa.
06:59It's just a piranha.
07:00I'll get you another one.
07:02Lyssa turned back unwillingly, met his gaze, and fell silent.
07:06Caelan stared at me with his pitch black eyes and walked slowly toward me.
07:09He was a notorious tyrant who had killed his own father and eight brothers.
07:13But I was not afraid.
07:14I met his gaze calmly.
07:17What is your name?
07:19Sierra Black.
07:21Interesting.
07:22He waved his hand.
07:23Lyssa shot me a vicious glare and had the piranha's body dragged away.
07:26Wait.
07:28My whip is missing something.
07:30I stopped the guards, removed the necklace that still carried my sister's scent,
07:34and cut off a piece of the piranha's spine with my dagger.
07:36I wanted Lyssa to understand that this was only the beginning.
07:39Everything she had done to my sister, I would repay a thousandfold.
07:42The nearby maids covered their mouths, about to retch in horror.
07:46But Caelan watched me carve the bone from the fish with admiration in his eyes.
07:49After the servants left, I saw the interest and desire burning in his gaze.
07:53I obediently dropped the bone whip, straddled him, and wrapped my arms around his neck.
07:58He pulled me tight by the waist and flipped me onto my back.
08:01His rough breath rushed against my lips,
08:03but he never noticed the sharp piranha's spine was aimed directly at his heart.
08:07Before I could drive it home, Caelan suddenly twisted my arm behind my back and snatched the bone.
08:12Why are you still holding this filthy thing?
08:15Before I could speak, his eyes fell on the golden bracelet on my wrist.
08:18Since you like bones so much, I'll have the craftsman make you a proper ornament tomorrow.
08:22I don't want an ornament.
08:23If your highness truly wishes to give me something, make it a weapon.
08:29Interesting.
08:30He tossed the spine aside and kissed me.
08:32I kissed him back without hesitation.
08:34His scales were cold, but his chest burned like fire.
08:37All night long, the bedchamber echoed with animalistic gasps.
08:40The next morning, Caelan had me dressed in a silk gown inlaid with black pearls,
08:44which made my black scales shine even more brightly.
08:47He tilted my chin up with his finger.
08:49Today, I will take you somewhere wonderful.
08:52He took me to the secret armory beneath the coral garden,
08:54though it was less an armory than a water dungeon where he tortured people for amusement.
08:58Along the dim corridor, the clink of chains and horse screams echoed from the cells.
09:02Old and new blood stained the floor black.
09:05The stench of blood and rust filled my nostrils.
09:07A group of craftsmen had just skinned an entire red dragon,
09:10still dripping with blood, to make lanterns.
09:13That scaled hide had belonged to Caelan's eldest brother,
09:15the son Old King Oberon had favored most.
09:17The whole realm knew the new dragon came as cold and cruel,
09:20and had thrown everyone who stood in his way to the throne into the water dungeon
09:24to be tortured at his leisure.
09:25The sound of blacksmiths forging weapons mixed with screams,
09:28and I trembled with excitement.
09:30Another clean-scale dragon's bones were snapped clean by the craftsmen.
09:33The sound of tearing flesh made my blood race.
09:35Caelan took the dragon bone from the craftsmen and lifted my chin gently.
09:38I will make you a dagger from my third brother's spine.
09:42Do you like it?
09:43But my sister was not a monster like me.
09:45She had felt sorry when he was a shark hunting a wounded fish.
09:49When his third brother's blood had splattered across her face,
09:51she had collapsed in terror, tears mixing with blood on her dress.
09:55Caelan believed in the cruel law of the deep eat or be eaten,
09:58and despised all weakness and tears.
10:00With my sister's compassion, I disgusted it,
10:02and that was why she had been tortured to death by the equally cruel Lyssa.
10:05I smiled and reached out to stroke the blood-stained bone,
10:08still warm to the touch.
10:09Sierra loves it, of course.
10:11I stepped directly from the field of blood,
10:13picked up the still-dripping red dragon hide,
10:15and said happily,
10:17Sierra also wants this hide for the handle.
10:20This will be the sharpest, most beautiful dragon bone dagger ever made.
10:24Seeing how excited I was, Caelan actually grinned.
10:27Are you not afraid of this dungeon, Sierra?
10:30Why would I be afraid?
10:31I looked confused.
10:32Sierra loves it here.
10:33This place is more fun than anywhere else.
10:36Sierra has always dreamed of having a playground like this.
10:39I meant every word.
10:40I had only suppressed my desire to kill to please my sister.
10:43Otherwise, Father King's palace would also have a corner piled high with corpses.
10:47Perhaps the blood and hearts of those with black scales are also black.
10:51Caelan laughed loudly and pointed to one of the cells.
10:54Everyone thinks I killed my father and all my brothers when I seized power,
10:57but I didn't.
10:58I locked them up here.
10:59When I need them, I skin them and break their bones.
11:02Death is too merciful.
11:04A fate worse than death is the best punishment.
11:06I said gladly.
11:07I understood that Caelan wanted them to watch with their own eyes
11:10how this once reviled, black-scaled dragon
11:12had become the king who held their lives in his hands.
11:15Seeing how well I understood him,
11:16he laughed even more wildly and put me into a tight embrace.
11:23But, he did not know that I understood him so well,
11:25not because I was empathetic, but because I was just like him.
11:28We were both kings of hell who built purgatories for others.
11:31Two monsters with black scales and black hearts.
11:34Two outcasts shunned by their own clans.
11:36We were the most perfect match in the world.
11:38Why had it not been me who was sent to marry him first?
11:41Unfortunately, he had been my sister who had come to Caelan's side first.
11:44And by killing her, he had made himself my enemy.
11:46Your Highness is wise.
11:49It is their honor for their bones and blood to save you.
11:53Caelan held me happily.
11:54I stared coldly at the dragon bone and dragon hide being polished by the craftsmen,
11:59and in my mind, I saw my sister being skinned,
12:01her scales turned into a necklace.
12:03Caelan was overjoyed.
12:05He took me through the palace, the city walls,
12:07the sea trenches, the dark abysses.
12:09He told me about his past,
12:10how he had been locked in the frozen abyss by the old king
12:13as an omen of misfortune,
12:14and how he had clawed his way to power through sheer brutality.
12:17Listening to his story, which mirrored my own so closely,
12:20I felt a flicker of empathy,
12:22but the thought vanished in an instant.
12:24In its place was only the desire to tear them all to pieces.
12:27After that, Caelan spent every night in my bedchamber.
12:30Lissa, who had never been ignored like this,
12:32rushed to send a letter home complaining.
12:34She was the most beloved daughter of her family,
12:36and when her mother heard she was being wronged,
12:38she rushed to the palace overnight.
12:39The Frost clan had been Caelan's greatest allies in seizing the throne,
12:43especially Lady Morgana Frost,
12:45the most valiant female general on the battlefield.
12:48Caelan naturally dared not neglect her,
12:49and immediately took gifts to Lissa's quarters.
12:51This was the gift I had prepared for Lissa,
12:53and now was the perfect time to give it.
12:55The maid led a piranha monster to me.
12:57I put the purple scale necklace around its neck,
13:00placed the rest of the weapons on a silk tray,
13:02and walked toward Lissa's quarters.
13:04Proud dragons like her valued face above all else,
13:06so I would do to her exactly what she had done to my sister,
13:09wrap the symbol of her identity around a piranha's neck,
13:12and make her taste the humiliation.
13:14I had made these purple scale daggers myself
13:16in Caelan's water dungeon skinning, scaling,
13:18grinding the bones to preserve their most brilliant purple,
13:21the exact same purple as Lissa's scales.
13:23I led the piranha to the door of her quarters.
13:26Scylla Black.
13:28My voice was polite, but cold as ice.
13:30The maid saw the flash of purple in my hand
13:32and turned pale into terror, rushing inside to announce.
13:35The guards opened the door, looking at me with fear in their eyes.
13:38When I entered, they were eating.
13:40Bitch, can't you see the dragon Ning is dining with us?
13:43Lissa did not even look up and snapped impatiently.
13:45He won't be coming to your place for days.
13:49Get out.
13:51I did not get angry.
13:53I smiled and tugged on the chain around the piranha's neck.
13:56The clink of metal finally made her look up.
13:58I held up the silk tray warmly.
14:00Lisa, I heard Lady Morgana was coming,
14:02so I made you gifts from the finest purple dragon scales.
14:05Look, aren't they beautiful?
14:07These are the best purple dragon scales.
14:09Just as beautiful as yours.
14:12When Lissa's eyes fell on the purple scale necklace around the piranha's neck,
14:15her pupils constricted to pinpricks.
14:17Don't you like it, Sister Lysa?
14:19I searched everywhere for these purple dragon scales.
14:22There are so few purple dragons in the four seas.
14:25More than few, only the blood relatives of Lady Morgana's clan had purple scales.
14:29Mother and daughter recognized instantly who scales these were.
14:33Bitch!
14:33How dare you touch my cousin!
14:35Lissa screamed and lunged at him.
14:37You filthy black fish!
14:38Have you lost your mind?
14:40I'll kill you!
14:41I'll kill your entire clan!
14:43Lady Morgana, true to her reputation as a general,
14:45managed to keep her composure even as her veins bulged with anger.
14:49Lisa!
14:50Control yourself in front of the Dragon King!
14:52Kaelin put down his knife and fork, a faint flicker of interest crossing his face.
14:56Lissa had been spoiled her whole life and had never suffered such humiliation.
15:00Her sobs quickly turned to wails.
15:02Dragon King, mother!
15:03This lowly fish dared to harm a purple dragon and put my cousin's scales on a piranha!
15:07She cried hysterically, completely unaware that Kaelin was frowning in disgust.
15:11Weakness and tears were the things he hated most.
15:15What's wrong, Sister Lysa?
15:17Lysa, didn't you once say that dragons and fish alike should be useful?
15:22Your cousin was a traitor.
15:24If not for my appreciation, how would he have the chance to atone for his sins to the Dragon King?
15:30Lysa cried even harder, her face turning bright red.
15:33Lysa, how can you lose your temper over a mere Marewish woman?
15:38She stared at me and stood slowly, her eyes sharp.
15:40She was not like Lysa, arrogant and reckless.
15:43She was more like a beast with sharp claws and teeth, ready to tear apart any enemy.
15:46But I met her gaze calmly and said warmly,
15:49Sarah knows Lady Morgana is a hero among women, so I prepared a weapon worthy of you.
15:54I picked up a purple-scaled bone blade and handed it to her.
15:57Lysa flew into an even greater rage and slapped the dagger out of my hand.
16:02Keep that cursed thing away from my mother!
16:04Mother, this bitch dared to insult us!
16:08Kill her now! Skin her alive and feed her to the piranhas!
16:11Lady Morgana looked at her daughter with pity, but still held her temper.
16:14My nephew is our blood, a living being.
16:18An ill-mannered thing like you deserves to be thrown into the frozen abyss to be eaten by piranhas!
16:24I let out a snort of laughter.
16:25The lives of purple dragons are precious, but my sister's life could be thrown away.
16:29I picked up the bone blade again and smiled innocently.
16:32You are mistaken, Lady Morgana.
16:34I would never deliberately humiliate him.
16:37If he had not stood against the Dragon King, would he have been locked in the dungeon waiting to atone?
16:41I turned him into a dagger to give him and the Frostclan a chance to make amends.
16:45These are the Dragon King's rules. Do you not recognize them?
16:47Lady Morgana's face darkened further.
16:49She could not argue, especially not in front of Kaylin.
16:52Very well. You have a sharp tongue.
16:54A cold glint flashed in her eyes.
16:56Then let us settle this the Dragon King's way.
16:58She turned to Kaylin to bow.
16:59Your Highness, no matter what my nephew did, it is not for a foreign woman to punish him.
17:03This woman has killed a dragon and disbraded our clan's soul.
17:06I request the abyss trial.
17:08Lady Morgana wanted to use the trial to have me thrown into the frozen abyss, where the piranhas lived.
17:12Whether I lived or died would be up to fate.
17:14It was called fate, but the abyss was where the royal family had the Frostclan raise their piranhas.
17:20It was nothing more than a death sentence.
17:22In thousands of years, the only person who had survived the abyss trial besides the Frostclan was Kaylin himself.
17:27I had underestimated Lady Morgana, but she had also underestimated me.
17:31My whip, made from the spines of 49 piranhas, was not just for show.
17:36Kaylin frowned at the determined Lady Morgana and turned his gaze to me.
17:39I looked relaxed, unafraid, and even smiled at him.
17:42He finally spoke.
17:43Granted.
17:44Lady Morgana and Lyssa both thought this was Kaylin favoring them, and their eyes lit up with triumphant arrogance.
17:49They did not notice that I, standing behind them, had eyes burning with even greater excitement, the thrill of being
17:55able to kill again.
17:56The next day, Lady Morgana could not wait to bring me to the mouth of the abyss.
18:00The viewing platform was packed with dragons who had come to watch the trial.
18:03The abyss lay in the deep sea, where no light could reach.
18:06The currents were fierce and icy cold.
18:08The mouth of the cave looked like a human black mob, ready to swallow everyone whole.
18:12The sound of piranhas churning the water was like the growl of a hungry beast.
18:16Their shrill cries echoed through the cave, deafening.
18:19Lady Morgana saw me standing frozen at the mouth and whispered triumphantly in my ear.
18:23These are my specially red piranhas.
18:26I know a weak little fish like you is already scared out of your wits.
18:29But even if you beg on your knees, it won't help.
18:32I'm gonna make you die a more miserable death than your sister.
18:34She laughed and shoved me hard into the abyss.
18:37She opened the piranha cages and dozens of fish swarmed out, circling.
18:41The piranhas did not attack her.
18:43Instead, they turned their cold eyes on me.
18:45Lady Morgana, if you are the one who doesn't walk out of this abyss today,
18:49will you become the frost clam's most shameful secret?
18:52She laughed.
18:53Unfortunately, I will never know that feeling.
18:56She waved at the piranhas.
18:57Eat up, children!
18:59The piranhas screeched, but then they turned on her.
19:01Will and her flesh.
19:02After her screams died down, I walked out of the abyss,
19:05covered in blood, holding a severed dragon horn.
19:08Every face turned to terror.
19:10Piranhas are the wildest of creatures.
19:12The more you try to be their master, the more you will pay.
19:15Lady Morgana had never known that I had learned piranha habits at nine.
19:19I had smeared their mucus on myself since childhood.
19:21When I pretended to talk, I had splashed fresh fish blood on her clothes.
19:25The outcome was sealed from the start.
19:27I threw the dragon horn at Lyssa's feet.
19:30After what's left of your mother, Lyssa screamed hysterically.
19:33She clung to Kaylin's legs, but no guards moved.
19:36Watching her desperate face, the stone in my heart lifted a little.
19:39I threw myself into Kaylin's arms and smiled.
19:42Your Highness, Sierra, is back.
19:43His eyes were full of admiration and relief.
19:45His embrace was warm, but it could never compare to my sister's.
19:48If only I had been the one sent to marry him first.
19:51If only Kaylin had not been an accomplice to my sister's death.
19:54Kaylin announced,
19:55The trial is over.
19:57Sierra is innocent.
19:58Lyssa screamed.
19:59You monster!
20:00I'll make you pay!
20:02She ripped off her neck, revealing a poisoned dagger and stabbed at my neck.
20:06Kaylin pulled behind him.
20:07He dripped the blade, blood dripping, and pushed her away.
20:10The mad Lyssa lunged again with a broken dragon.
20:13Kaylin held me close and struck her down with a blow that used 30% of his spiritual power.
20:18He spat black blood and collapsed into my arms, unconscious.
20:21I could have killed him then with a dagger shard, but my hand froze.
20:25A splitting headache hit me, and I fainted.
20:27When I woke, the ocean sorcerer knelt before me.
20:30Blessings!
20:30You fainted because a dragon pearl has descended.
20:33You are with child, carrying the dragon king's heir!
20:36I stared at my stomach in disbelief.
20:38Could the headache be the baby stopping me from killing him?
20:41How could I carry the child of the man who killed my sister?
20:43I slammed my fist toward my stomach, and I fainted again, and I fainted as far.
20:48Three days later, the maid said,
20:50The dragon king's poison has spread.
20:54Whether he wakes is up to fate.
20:55I stumbled to Kaylin's bedchamber.
20:58Kaylin lay still, his hand black with poison.
21:01I stroked his face, feeling his faint warmth.
21:03I had dreamed of his death, but seeing him near death did not bring joy.
21:07The ocean sorcerer rushed in.
21:09I have found an ancient remedy.
21:11To cleanse the poison, we need pure bloodline essence from the dragon king's own kin.
21:15The only remaining bloodline is the child in your womb.
21:17I sent them out.
21:18I sat on the edge of the bed and said calmly,
21:21Kaylin, I am carrying a child that can save your life.
21:26I wanted to watch you die.
21:30But perhaps it would be more interesting to let you watch your own child die to save you.
21:35I placed his hand on my stomach and raised the dagger.
21:38As it fell, he grabbed my wrist.
21:40Don't you need to live?
21:41Kill this child, and you will survive.
21:43But I want our child to live more.
21:46I stabbed again toward my stomach.
21:48He pulled me away, and I fell on him.
21:50The dagger grazed his cheek.
21:52Blood seeped down his face as if he were crying.
21:54Please.
21:55Please spare him.
21:56The brutal king was begging.
21:58I froze.
21:59But then I saw my sister's golden bracelet.
22:01She must have begged too when the piranhas tore her apart.
22:04Kaylin had not spared her, so why should I spare him now?
22:06Kaylin passed out again.
22:08Then a guard reported,
22:09Princess Consul Lyssa is carrying your child.
22:11A plan formed in my mind.
22:13I went to the water dungeon.
22:14Lyssa shouted,
22:15Dragon king, forgive me for our child!
22:17When she saw me, her joy turned cold.
22:19I stepped closer.
22:21The dragon king is unconscious.
22:23Do you think a child will save you?
22:25I pulled my dagger.
22:25The remedy needs bloodline essence from his kin.
22:27He only needs one heir.
22:29Please spare my child!
22:30I am his cousin!
22:31My blood will work too!
22:32She kowtowed until her forehead bled.
22:35Then show me how far you'll go.
22:38I'll be your slave for life.
22:41Not sincere enough.
22:42I drove the dagger to her palm.
22:44Blood turned the water red.
22:45She twisted in pain.
22:47Why do you hate me so much?
22:49Her confusion infuriated me.
22:51She had forgotten my sister.
22:52When my sister begged you,
22:54what did you do?
22:56Now think being my slave will save your child?
22:58She finally remembered.
23:00I deserve to die!
23:02Please spare me and my child!
23:04She frantically scratched off her purple scales,
23:06mixed with blood.
23:07My killing intent faded slightly.
23:09Suddenly, she clutched her stomach.
23:11Bitch!
23:12You tricked me!
23:14I never said I'd forgive you.
23:15Only the one you killed could.
23:17I slid the dagger deeper.
23:19You came for revenge from the start!
23:21You want to kill me and the dragon king!
23:22I laughed softly.
23:24You just realized?
23:25The moment you touched my sister,
23:27this ending was destined.
23:30I will never let you get away!
23:32She screamed wildly.
23:33Kylan!
23:34We've both been played by this bitch!
23:37I turned.
23:37Kaelin stood in the doorway.
23:39Lysandra Frost,
23:40you attempted to murder your king.
23:42You are sentenced to use your unborn child's flesh and blood to cure my poison.
23:47Your life will be spared.
23:48He wiped the blood from my face.
23:50You may use her purple scales for our child's wind trine.
23:53You're also responsible for her sister's death!
23:56You'll regret this!
23:57Lysa screamed as guards advanced.
24:00Kaelin took my hand and left.
24:01He recovered, but was permanently weakened,
24:03dependent on me, pressing his ear to my stomach daily.
24:06On my due date, he stayed by my side,
24:08but there had been no movement in my stomach.
24:10I was born to devour everything.
24:12The labor pains were power bursting from my body.
24:14Kaelin,
24:16there never was a child.
24:17I can never have your child.
24:19My desire to kill you has never wavered.
24:22He stumbled back.
24:23But even so, I loved you.
24:25Sierra?
24:26Voice barely audible.
24:27Was there ever a single moment you truly loved me?
24:30I looked at him coldly.
24:31We are both black-scaled monsters,
24:33outcasts shunned by our clans.
24:34We should have been perfect together.
24:36But you killed my sister,
24:38and that makes everything impossible.
24:40I never loved you.
24:41His pupils dilated,
24:43his chest heaved once,
24:44and then he was still.
24:45A generation of tyrants died at the hands of the woman he had loved with all his heart.
