Book 15: Chapter 38


    My dragon blood didnt enhance my senses by much. I did think my vision would improve considerably if I switched out my eyes for dragon eyes. I didnt regret giving the eyes to Xia, nevertheless. Despite that, however, I still woke upte at night. I felt there was somebody next to me. It was unlike Mommy Vyvyan. Normally, it would be toote by the time I reacted to her, because shed already have begun getting touchy with me. Actually, shed have gone beyond getting touchy with her hands, because Id be restrained and unable to resist. It would be more an Elizabeth thing to do to silently watch me the way I was being watched.


    I sighed: Mom, youre the Elven Queen at the moment. We wont be able to exin ourselves if somebody finds out.


    Mommy is more worried about you not willing to speak to Mommy than being discovered.


    Vyvyans voice came from the dark. I smiled but didnt sit up. Instead, I remained lying with my eyes shut: Why would I not speak to you? Youre my mom. Plus, since the Earth Dragon, I mean, since I was born, youve always been looking after me, so I love you. I always have. Ive never felt as though youve done anything wrong. Youre always my most beloved mom.


    Most beloved mom?


    Vyvyan bit down on her lip as though she was trying to confirm the authenticity of my statement. She could repeat it, but I had to confirm there was only Vyvyan present before I confirmed it for her. I didnt think Elizabeth could slip past the Valkyries and my guards without being discovered. Only Vyvyan was capable of doing that. I looked in her direction and softly chuckled: If I had to y favourites, I like you more on this side.


    I noticed a silhouette rock in the darkness when I responded. Mommy Vyvyan appeared from the darkness. She was dressed in her dark red sleepwear. The thin and light material gently swayed as she moved. Her luscious thighs moved underneath her dark red sleepwear. They reflected the moonlight. There wasnt any excess fat on her t and smooth belly. It was akin to stillke water that reflected light at night. Only one of the buttons on the chest region was done up. Her long blonde hair was down. Her blues eyes appeared slightly cold under the moonlight. She furtively came over to my bed and climbed in


    My thoughts: I cant stop her! How can I defend every corner of this bed thats a few square metres? Am I supposed topliment Luna on her urate prediction of tonights invasion? Wait, what I want to really know is how Luna knew somebody would invade my bed tonight.


    Vyvyan crawled up to me and, from behind, pulled me tightly into her embrace. I heard her deep breaths from behind. She softly giggled: Its so nice to be able to smell my son. So, so nice. Son, youre honestly too gentle You can forgive others no matter what they do. You never me people for the things they do to you. Mommy is powerless to help you. Mommy has let you down twice consecutively, yet you never med Mommy. Son, youre truly too gentle


    I allowed Mom to hug me to her hearts content. With my back to her, I replied in a soft voice, Mom, do you want to do something tonight? What did you wanting over at this time?


    No. This is good enough. Just let Mommy hold you from behind the same way Mommy held you when you were young. Let Mommy reminisce the past for a bit.


    Mommy Vyvyans voice came from behind. A chill went down my spine. I was oddly tense.


    In my mind: This is not normal. This is definitely not normal. Mommy Vyvyan is going to hug me without doing anything? I dont believe it! This is definitely not normal!


    Mommy Vyvyan sniffed me and then softly continued, Youre Mommys everything. Mommy should give up everything for you. Recently, however, Mommy hasnt felt that feeling of the past. In the past, Mommy could give you everything you wanted. Mommy was particrly happy to see you dly smile. Back then, Mommy felt the bliss of a mother and a sense of achievement. Mommy hasnt been able to give you anything recently, unfortunately. Perhaps what you want is different now. Mommy cant give you what you want anymore, so Mommy is starting to question if Mommy is still considered a mom or not.


    Moms voice sounded poignant. I suddenly understood why all Mom wanted to do was hug me from behind. It was unlike Vyvyan, but it wasprehensible. She mustve been reminiscing the past. She was probably trying to remember the time when she was an almighty mother. For Vyvyan, a mom wasnt just a title. Maybe it was because she knew deep down that she wasnt my biological mother, thus was very demanding of herself. She wanted to fulfil all of my wishes so that she could feel as though being called mom was justified.


    I turned over to look at Moms face. I solemnly said, Mom, thats now how it is. A mother isnt supposed to just always make sacrifices for her child. Ive grown up, Mom. Ive grown up. Its now my turn to do my best for you. Its now my turn to take care of you.


    A smile slowly surfaced on Vyvyans face. She touched my face and, in a quiet voice, said, That must be it. Thats what everybody around me says. The elders also said that youve grown up and should manage a region on your own. They said you should upy the North and focus on being a King. Nevertheless, Mommy forever sees your smile from when you were young no matter how Mommy looks at you. Mommy always wants to take care of you, because Mommy can never view you as an adult.


    Well, there is something you can help me with.


    Moms eyes froze for a moment then she emotionally eximed, What is it?! What is it?! Tell me, Son. As long as I can help you, just say the word!


    I nodded. I looked into her eyes and sincerely replied, Stay by my side.


    Vyvyans gaze froze. She looked at me baffled. I continued solemnly, Thats it, Mom. The one thing you can still do for me is to stay by my side. You can still help me obtain what I want, and thats you. What I want is you.


    Mommy Vyvyan smiled, and then tightly hugged me. I did my best to curl myself up and bury my head in her chest as a child would. I didnt do it for the soft mountains but to calm Mommy Vyvyan. From her chest, I quietly said, Its all right, Mom, its all right. Its fine, no matter how you see me. Ill forever be your son. Its just that I just want you now. As a mom, its only right for you to stay by your sons side, right?


    Youre right, my son. Mommy will forever see you as a child. Mommy will stay by your side. Mommy will ever leave you for as long as Mommy is still alive.


    I thought you were here.


    Before I had time to be touched by the promation, a frigid voice came from the door. Vyvyan sat up and looked in the direction of the voice. With a grin, she remarked, I knew you woulde for sure.


    Elizabeth, who was at the door, sulked. Mommy Elizabeth wasnt dressed in her sleepwear but arge shirt. It was a simple white robe that covered her legs. Unlike Mommy Vyvyan, her legs had some muscles that made one fantasise when they saw the darkness between her legs whenever she took a step. She nodded: Son, your guards require more intense training. Nobody discovered me entering.


    I thought to myself, Im willing to bet youre the only one who could enter, so I dont think my guards need more intense training.


    Mommy Elizabeth shifted her attention Vyvyan. Then, without any hesitation, she ran up to my other side and forcefully dragged me out of Vyvyans embrace. She then looked at Vyvyan behind me and asked, Son, be honest, what do you think of this unification?


    The truth is, I want to unify us this time so that you two can be by my side. I dont want any ruling rights. It doesnt matter to me who acts as the administrator for the continent. I just want to keep you by my side.


    Mommy Vyvyan tightly hugged me. I shut my eyes, nning to continue sleeping. From behind, Mommy Elizabeth gently rested her head on me before pressing me downwards so that I was lying face up. Elizabeth then grabbed my arm and clung firmly to me. She ced her hand gently on my chest.


    On the other side, Vyvyan attached herself to me, as well. The two of them squashed me in the centre. They looked at me with gentle gazes. The scene of us three together instantly turned very tender as though the sky was filled with grains of gentleness.


    Meanwhile, I was thinking, Can you two be a little cautious? Your tag team boobies face wash is lethal. I suspect you two will m me with it. If you unleash them on me, Ill probably be squashed to death I would seriously die from suffocation, wouldnt I? If Dragon Mom could smell me, I might not live to see another day
