Chapter 6

Author: Crystal K
I rushed to the hospital.

“Triplets,” the private physician pushed his glasses up his nose, looking even more shocked than I was as he studied the ultrasound image. “Three dragon eggs, to be precise.”

I lay on the examination bed, staring at the monitor. Three oval shapes were lined up neatly, each glowing with a faint, ethereal light.

“Is that normal?” I asked.

“For dragons, perfectly normal,” the doctor said, quickly taking notes. “You’re two months along. The shells are forming. We expect them to hatch in another six months.”

Six months.

Much shorter than a human pregnancy.

Damien walked into the room as I was getting dressed.

“How is it?” he asked.

“Three,” I said. “We’re having three children.”

His golden, slitted eyes lit up instantly, glowing with a warmth that was nothing like the “Doomsday Tyrant” of legends.

“How do you feel?” he asked, coming over and gently helping me up. “Any discomfort?”

“I feel good,” I said, leaning against his chest. “Better than I expected.”

  • Pregnant with the Dragon King's Triplets   Chapter 8

    “That woman is completely insane.”Damien put down his phone, his expression grim.A month later, Isabella had completely lost her mind. The news from the sanatorium was that she had gone missing.I didn't think anything of it. What trouble could a broken, crazy woman possibly cause?All my attention was on my three dragon eggs. They grew more beautiful by the day, the life force within them getting stronger and stronger.Then, one night, I was deep asleep when I was jolted awake by a sudden, hollowing emptiness in my heart.I ran barefoot into the nursery.The next second, the blood in my veins turned to ice.The incubator was empty.My three dragon eggs were gone.A piercing alarm shattered the night’s silence. Damien appeared beside me like a phantom. When he saw the empty incubator, a hellish fury erupted in his golden, slitted eyes.“Who dares!” he snarled, his voice thick with killing intent.The security footage was pulled up.On the screen was a ghostly figure in a hospital gow

    “Clara, wake up.”Damien’s voice was as soft as a feather brushing against my ear.I slowly opened my eyes and found myself in a comfortable hospital bed. The room was quiet, save for the gentle hum of medical equipment.“The children—” I struggled to sit up.“They’re perfect,” Damien said, stroking my hair. “Look.”I turned my head. Next to the bed was an incubator.Three dragon eggs lay nestled inside, each the size of a basketball, their surfaces shimmering with an iridescent, rainbow-colored light. They were as beautiful as works of art.“So soon?” I couldn’t believe it.“You delivered them in under an hour,” Damien said, his eyes filled with pride. “The doctor said it was the smoothest draconic birth he’s ever witnessed.”One hour?In my last life, I was in labor with Jacob’s child for sixteen agonizing hours and nearly died on the delivery table.“How do you feel?” Damien took my hand. “Are you in any pain?”“I feel fine.” And I truly did. Aside from being a little tired, my body

    “No!” Isabella shook her head wildly. “I didn’t betray you! I swear I didn’t!”“Then how do you explain this?” Jacob pointed at the four rays of light.“I—I—” Isabella stammered, then, as if remembering something, her face went even whiter. “The Breeding Ritual! It was the Breeding Ritual!”A collective gasp went through the room.The Breeding Ritual was one of the wolf clan’s most ancient and forbidden magics. It used the life essence of multiple clan members to boost the chances of conception, but the price was a chaotic and impure bloodline in the offspring.“Are you insane?” Jacob was completely unhinged. “That ritual has been banned for centuries!”“But you said you’d do anything for an heir!” Isabella wailed, her voice breaking. “You said you needed a powerful child! I was just trying to help! I wanted to get pregnant quickly! I wanted to prove to you I was a thousand times better than Clara! Everything I did was for you, for our future!”“The glory I wanted,” Jacob’s voice was

    “You whore! You betrayed me!”Jacob’s roar shook the entire living room.He stood over Isabella, his silver eyes burning with rage. The wine glass in his hand shattered, and blood dripped from his fingers, but he didn't seem to feel the pain.Isabella cowered in the corner of the sofa, the infant in her arms letting out a weak cry.The baby’s fur was indeed strange. Not the pure, silver-white of Jacob’s clan, but a mottled gray-brown, with streaks of black.“Jacob, I swear I didn’t—”“Shut up!” Jacob slapped her across the face. “The pure Silver Wolf bloodline has endured for a thousand years! We have never produced a mutt like this!”He reached for the baby. “I’ll deal with this disgrace myself!”“Stop.”Damien’s voice cut through the air like a blade of ice.He emerged from the shadows, his golden, slitted eyes locking onto Jacob. The pressure from a true apex predator froze Jacob in place.“The child is innocent,” Damien said calmly.“Innocent?” Jacob laughed, a crazed sound. “The e

    The elevator doors slid shut, hiding Isabella’s jealousy-twisted face from view.The living room fell into a dead silence.My taut nerves finally unwound. I turned to look at the figure on the balcony.“Thank you,” I said. “For before.”Damien didn’t turn around. His voice was flat. “Thank me? For taking out your trash?”“And for… not letting them touch anything in here,” I said softly.He finally turned and walked toward me, each step carrying an invisible weight that pressed down on me. As he cast his shadow over me, I could barely breathe.He stopped right in front of me, so close I could smell the unique scent on his skin.“Clara,” he began, his golden, slitted pupils like two embers in the dim light. “I know what you’re doing.”My heart leaped into my throat.He reached out and expertly tilted my chin up, forcing me to meet those all-seeing eyes.“You weren’t choosing a husband,” he said, his voice a low rumble. “You were choosing a knife. A blade to cut down all your enemies. Am
