Chapter 1

"Father, I like Jasper Warren of the serpent clan. I only want him." My younger sister, Rosalie White, spoke with eyes full of confidence.She looked at me with a challenging gaze, as if confident that once she chose Jasper, she would be able to give birth to a sacred beast and take the beast throne.At that moment, I knew she had reincarnated as well.Rosalie and I were twin sisters from the merfolk clan. We were born with the divine gift of bearing sacred beasts.Ten thousand years ago, a great war broke out among the beast clans. The only sacred beast sacrificed itself for the lives of countless others.Since then, its bloodline withered away, and no sacred beasts had been born.And now, Rosalie and I were the only hope of bearing one.It had been declared throughout the beast clans that whoever gave birth to a sacred beast would be crowned as beast king.In my previous life, on our coming-of-age day, Rosalie was the first to pick Charles Summer, the prince of the zilant cla

Chapter 2

I coughed slightly before pointing at Charles. "I chose Charles Summer of the zilant clan. Please grant me this marriage, Father."Charles nodded indifferently. As the only prince of the zilant clan, he bore the heavy responsibility of continuing his bloodline.It was hard for the zilant to reproduce, and even if they did conceive, successful births were nearly impossible. Otherwise, he wouldn't be the only one left in their bloodline.The merfolk clan, however, possessed the strongest fertility among all beast clans. In order to make the zilant clan thrive again, Charles had no choice but to stay and take his chance.Father looked at Rosalie with pity. However, since she had taken an oath upon the sacred beast, he had no choice but to announce that the four of us would be married on a later date.As he turned to leave, the remaining unmarried beasts who hadn't been chosen all glared at Jasper before leaving as well.Rosalie clung to Jasper and stood before me smugly. "You'd bett

Chapter 3

I pressed my lips together and smiled. However, I did not tell Charles that I was perfectly healthy.In my past life, Jasper was grateful I had chosen him and obeyed my every word. As such, I told him the reason behind my frail health was due to the sacred bloodline granted to me in order to bear a sacred beast.As long as I carried a child and endured the weakness of pregnancy, I would be able to recover fully after that.However, I hadn't expected Jasper's devotion to be fake. Once he got me pregnant, he began frequenting brothels, even bringing the beasts he slept with into the palace.Worse still, he conspired with Rosalie to kill my sacred beast hatchling. He'd even handed me over to her and allowed her to humiliate me at will.Jasper placed his hand on her belly as my hatchling's dead body and I were cast into the beast furnace. He even smiled and said, "This is my true sacred beast hatchling."Rosalie thought she had chosen some priceless treasure, but in reality, he was m

Chapter 4

Charles' face turned scarlet, and he looked a little lost. He didn't dare to meet my eyes and turned his head away slightly, only to reveal the burning tip of his ears.He gently pushed my hands away and stammered, "T-The royal physician said you can't be agitated. We can't…have consummation!"I wrapped my arms around Charles and pressed myself against his chest. My hands wandered around his abs, leaving him to desire more wherever I touched. "Please love me, Charles!"He held back for a moment, but it wasn't long before his restraints broke. With a ragged breath, he pulled me beneath him, his lips crashing onto mine as we engaged in a deep, consuming kiss.I never imagined someone as innocent as Charles to be such a great kisser.Just as I thought we were about to tumble into passion, he suddenly drew back and lay beside me instead. He sounded worried as he hugged me and said, "Let's not try for another if our hatchling can't survive the pregnancy. I'm worried about your health

Chapter 5

I covered Charles' mouth. "Aren't you hoping that I'll recover, Charles? I want to have hatchlings with you."Even with my assurance, he couldn't rest easy. He went all the way to the Sacred Valley and scoured countless medical texts before he finally convinced himself that my body wouldn't be ruined just by carrying a hatchling.Knowing that I could only recover by giving birth, Charles started practicing what he learned from "the birds and the bees" night after night.Under his insistence, I learned the zilant clan's secret art. I ended up growing healthier little by little.…Half a year later, Father summoned the entire merfolk clan for a reunion during the Midsummer Festival. Together, we offered prayers to the heavens, asking for the blessing of a sacred beast.When Charles and I made our appearance, my cheeks were rosy and full.Several unmarried mermen kept sneaking glances my way, but no one dared to approach me with him sitting next to me, stone-faced.Charles kept fi

Chapter 6

I was utterly disappointed.Charles wasn't aware that I had always loved him—be it this lifetime or the past.I had always been frail since young, making me an easy target for the other beast children. Once, they tricked me and almost got me killed.Charles—in his beast form—was the one who saved me. After he shifted back into his human form, he left such a deep impression on me.I had been waiting for the day to come when I could finally choose Charles as my husband. Unfortunately, Rosalie stole him away from me in my past life.Now, though I had chosen him, he seemed not to love me.I said, "I'll plead with Father to annul the marriage, Charles. You…"Exasperated, Charles sealed my lips with his own. I was left breathless when he hugged me and whispered. "I love you, sweetheart. I'm just afraid that bearing hatchlings would harm you, but at the same time, I'm afraid that you won't recover."The reason why I'm returning to the Sacred Valley is to make sure we can bear a hatc

Chapter 7

When Rosalie saw me and my swollen belly, in her madness, she lunged forward with bloodshot eyes. "The sacred beast hatchling is mine! Mine!"She was sent flying away before I could even duck from her attack.Charles pulled his hand back and shot Rosalie a warning. "I'll make sure you regret it for the rest of your life if you dare lay a finger on my sweetheart."She struggled to get up, coughing out blood as she shot me a death glare. "Just you wait—I'll definitely carry a sacred beast!"Rosalie fled the place, while Charles continued to feed me from a basketful of fruits.…Not long after, I heard that Father flew into a rage because Rosalie insisted on marrying another husband. While ignoring the backlash of her oath, she drugged Kevin Wright, a young heir of the peacock clan, and slept with him.I shook my head. She had truly gone mad.I focused on resting and caring for my unborn hatchlings, but still, Rosalie came flaunting before me.She proudly showed me her swollen be

Chapter 8

A sharp pain tore through my stomach, stealing my breath before I could even think.Just then, a sudden flurry of bird calls came from the outside, and a cascade of rainbow lights spilled across the sky. The gathered beasts stirred in awe.The royal physician yelled excitedly, "It's a good omen—a sacred beast is about to be born!"Father was overjoyed. After 10 thousand years, the beast clan would finally welcome a sacred beast.He ordered the royal physician to guard Rosalie and not to let anything happen to the sacred beast in her belly.She smugly looked at me. "I told you so, Clarie. I'm definitely giving birth to a sacred beast this time!"The royal physician followed Rosalie away, leaving Charles looking sombre as he continued to comfort me. "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you."He'd spent months shadowing the royal physician, determined to step in if anything went wrong.I took Charles' hand with gritted teeth, refusing to cry out. He carried me bridal-s

Chapter 9

Another sharp pain tore through my belly, leaving me no time to comfort Charles in his fit of jealous possessiveness.The never-ending waves of pain tormented me, leaving my vision dark. He gently wiped away the sweat from my forehead, burning through his magic to ease my pain.After a long day, I finally gave birth to nine eggs.I lay weakly against Charles. I watched as the brilliant glow across the sky slowly faded, until only a single beam of light remained, shining on one egg. With a soft crack, the shell split open.Father and the royal physician rushed in hurriedly, eagerly watching the cracked egg. After Rosalie's earlier misunderstanding, Father dared not speak a word, fearful of another humiliation.At that moment, the shell broke apart completely, revealing a tiny golden dragonoid with delicate horns crowning its head.The newborn sacred beast blinked blearily at me before smiling at me."My hatchling!" I cried out, overjoyed. Then, I fainted.I was at peace, knowi

Chapter 10

After dealing with Rosalie, I had Charles help Kevin to his feet.I said, "Your marriage with Rosalie is annulled. Do you need me to bless your union with your lover?"Kevin shook his head and replied, "Thank you, Your Majesty. But she stormed out in a fit of anger, and I'm worried about her safety. Once she calms down, I'll humbly ask for your blessing."I watched him leave and thought to myself that not all beasts were the same. After all, there were still devoted ones in this world—not all of them were like Jasper.As if knowing what was on my mind, Charles patted my head and said, "I'm also one of the good ones."Suddenly, the royal wet nurse ran over and yelled, "The hatchlings are out!"Charles and I went to see them. Among the remaining eight hatchlings, seven were young zilants, and one was a young mermaid.Overjoyed, he said, "A baby mermaid, how wonderful!"…The coronation was held three months later. This time, I guarded my hatchlings strictly, leaving no chance fo
