Book 15: Chapter 105
My night with Irina was somewhat embarrassing as predicted. Previously, my wives weren’t around. We chose to do it late at night, and Irina did her best not to moan aloud when we started. We were just doing it for a dragon egg, after all. We couldn’t show that we enjoyed it. That was a way of respecting my wives plus Irina’s guilt and courtesy. However, once Irina got into the mood, her moans grew bolder and bolder.
Irina stopped caring about controlling her moans. She shook her hips on top of me as if she craved it. She moaned louder and louder, bolder and bolder. Lucia would’ve perceived it as a provocation if she heard it.
Irina was comparable to a suction cup that sucked me dry. She tightly hugged me. The fatigue tried to rob my conscious. Irina refused to let go even once we were done. I don’t know if that was the dragon race’s trait or Irina’s herself. It didn’t feel that way in the past, yet I felt it then.
After a few rounds, Irina, drained, slid off. She lied there and gasped for air. She was a lot easier to please than other dragons. I instinctively hugged her. She went along with me and leaned onto my chest. She gently placed her hands on my chest and closed her eyes. I suppose she felt secure and bliss once she felt at ease. I, on the other hand, didn’t feel all that happy. Once it was time for me to enter sage mode, I watched her eventually fall asleep before covering her with the blanket and getting out of bed myself.
Lucia’s sleep at night was unstable as per usual, which was why she might be blankly sitting outside in a sour mood for all I knew. During the day, she said, “Your Highness, please don’t say sorry to me again, please don’t apologise to me again,” which worried me somewhat. She forgave every time I apologised. She never made me worry, yet she herself would be stuck bleeding from the effects of the pain I inflicted for a long, long time. I knew that it would be too mean if I went and hugged Lucia then. Using her gentleness and fearlessness, then trying to give her a hug to smooth it over was just scum.
I didn’t have any other way to extend Mommy Elizabeth’s lifespan. I didn’t know how to write poems or sing ‘Hello Hawaii,’ in English, so how was I supposed to extend Mommy Elizabeth and Nier’s lifespans? All I could do was use the dragon egg to extend their lifespans, granting them the chance to continue staying by my side. That was the only way. It was my only opportunity to help my mom and wife. I let Lucia down by doing that, but Lucia could stay by my side for a very, very long time.
“I guess I’ll use time to make it up to her. I’ll spend time at her side to make up for the pain I put Lucia through,” I decided.
I exited the cave. The wind outside blew my cloak open. It was freezing in the forest late at night. I wrapped my cloak around me due to my shivering. I peered into the dark forest underneath the cold and clear moonlight. The leaves blocked out most of the light. I was surprised to find nobody was outside. Lucia wasn’t outside. Uhm, nobody was outside. Instead, there was a dragon.
I’d never mistake the black scales. It was Dragon Mom. Lying on the ground, she took gentle breaths. Perhaps she was sleeping. When she heard my footsteps, she opened her golden eyes to look at me. I paused. I didn’t speak, as I was totally stunned. I didn’t expect Dragon Mom to be there. I thought, “Why did Dragon Mom come out here to lie? This isn’t a nice place by any means, and it’s cold.”
