Chapter 37: Pitiful
The next morning, Lyra groggily opened her eyes and was greeted with Blake's handsome sleeping face. She reached her hand to his face and caressed it. Blake furrowed his eyebrows and slowly opened his eyes.
He got up and helped Lyra to sit comfortably "Are you okay now Lilly? Do you feel any discomfort?"
Lyra shook her head "I'm fine now, quickly bring me the babies, I want to see them"
Blake chuckled and left her side, then brought eight pristine white eggs in a grass basket. Lyra fell into daze for a moment after seeing the eggs, she couldn't believe they came out of her body. For some reason, she felt emotional and touched them. Her eyes were filled with tears.
Blake hugged her "You did good Lilly, My Lilly is the best"
She laughed with still tears in her eyes, making her look pitiful "When will they come out of the egg?"
He stiffened hearing her and lowered his head "I must incubate them for forty days from today"
She looked at him "Is it? Then hurry and incubate them. What if they get hurt if they are exposed for too long?"
Blake wore a gloomy face and shook his head "I can't incubate them here. I must travel to snake valley for that, only that place is ideal for the snake eggs"
Lyra thought about it but soon nodded her head "Alright, Let's get going. Is it too far away?"
"Lilly, Don't tell me that you are planning to come with me?"
