The next 10 days went by in a flash, and before I knew it, Terry and I were flying back to the capital. When we arrived the following day, Crimson was waiting outside the estate for us. When we landed and turned back, Crimson rushed over to me and hugged me, "You're back!" "Of course, Mom. I told you we'd only be there for 12 days." Finally, Crimson let me go and said, "Let's go inside and catch up!" "Alright." We made our way inside and to the back living room. Once we were all sat down, Crimson asked me, "How was the honeymoon then?" "It was great! The Marquis may not give the best impression, but he really has a great taste for holidays." "What did you do while you were there?" "We explored around the waterfall. Then, Terry showed me a natural hot spring inside the cave behind the waterfall. After that, we went on a boat ride across the lake. We even went swimming on one day." "Is that all you did for 12 days?" I thought about what we ended up doing for most of our honeymo
The next day, Jasmin came into my room early in the morning, "Miss, it's time to wake up." Despite trying to wake me up, I was still fast asleep, so Jasmin took my blanket. Even after taking it, I was still sound asleep. Jasmin sighed, "I'm not sure why I even bother taking her blanket anymore..." Jasmin started to shake me by my shoulder, "Miss, you have to get up." When I woke up because of Jasmin's shaking, I woke up to a headache, "My head hurts..." "Are you feeling ok, miss?" "I'm fine, just a mild headache." "If you're sure, miss. I'll start brushing your hair if you wouldn't mind getting out of bed." By the time Jasmin finished brushing my hair and helping me get dressed, my headache had gone, but I was left feeling incredibly tired. When I got downstairs and entered the dining room, I didn't see Crimson, so I asked Jasmin, "Where's my Mother?" "She had some business to take care of, so she left the estate." "When will she be back?" "Sometime in the evening." As I wa
After a while, I finally left my room and went downstairs. When I got to the dining room, Dan and Tom had left, and Crimson was elsewhere in the estate, so the room was empty. As I walked into the dining room, Jasmin approached me, "Miss, I heard the news. Congratulations!" My mind was still trying to process the information, so I didn't know how to feel about being congratulated, "Thank you..." "Are you still feeling sick, miss?" I walked over to the table and took a seat as I said, "No, I'm just completely overwhelmed..." "What's overwhelming you?" "Everything. I never planned on having kids. I wasn't opposed to the idea, but I didn't think it would happen so soon..." Jasmin sat in the seat next to me as she said, "Miss, did you know I have kids?" "No, I didn't." "I have two. When I had my eldest, I was terrified and had no idea what to do." "How did you deal with it?" "I didn't, at first. I was panicking all the way through my pregnancy. It wasn't until after I had the e
When Terry came back into the room, he sat next to me and said, "I spoke with him. He said he couldn't find us an estate in time for when you're due, but he suggested you move into my family estate. We have an incubation room there." "I'm not sure. Is that our only option?" "We could move into an estate without one, but you would have to stay with the egg while the room is being constructed. Also, if you're living in my family estate, you'll be able to call for me any time you need me." "That's true... Alright, I'll move into your family estate. It's a shame we couldn't go to my family estate." "What do you mean? We're in your family's estate." "This isn't my family estate. Our estate is in Vaseya. It's where my brothers and I were born." "Where's your estate in the Vaseya territory?" "I'm not sure. I just know it's deep in the territory inside a mountain. I still remember my Father showing me above the clouds at the mountain's peak." "Weren't you only six months old when you f
Over the next two weeks, Terry and I spent nearly every day together went he didn't have to work. Luckily the Marquis didn't give Terry work often since he knew that he wanted to be with me during this time and that I also needed him for support. Terry had already left to do his work when I woke up in the morning. As I got out of bed, I headed over to my dresser and grabbed my hairbrush. As I sat in front of the dresser mirror, I was surprised by what I saw. When I looked in the mirror, I noticed I had a patch of scales forming on my face, 'Am I already starting to lose control of my form? I thought this wasn't supposed to happen for another month?' After I noticed it, I focused slightly and made it turn back, 'If I'm starting to lose control this early, does it mean I'll have to spend over a month in my dragon form?' I decided not to think about it and started brushing my hair. While I was, Jill came into the room, "Miss, are you awake?" "Yes, I only just woke up. I'm just brushi
Over the next month, I slowly started to lose more and more control over my form. After being pregnant for two months, most of my skin had turned to scales, I grew horns, my tail was out, and my wings were starting to come out my back, so I had to sleep on my front. When I woke up in the morning, I looked around to Terry's side of the bed. He was still there, watching me sleep. I smiled at him, "How long have you been watching me sleep, weirdo..." "What's weird about waking up before my wife and watching her cute face while she's still asleep for a minute?" "Don't call me cute. I'm covered in scales." "Would it make you feel better if I turned my skin into scales as well?" "You don't need to do that, but I appreciate the offer." "Personally, I think you look cuter when your horns are out." "Enjoy my face while you can, any day now, I won't be able to stay in my human form, and I'll be stuck in my full form for the next month." "Your full form is just as cute. I can even spend s
As Terry comforted me, I passed out from exhaustion. After I passed out, Terry made sure the blanket covering me was secure as he picked me up and carried me out of the incubation room and down the hall to our room. As we walked down the hall, we ran into Jill. When she saw us, she was surprised to see me in human form, "Sir Terry, has miss Sasha finally laid the egg?" Hearing her question reminded Terry of the fact that there could be something wrong with the egg as he looked at her concerned, "Yes, she did. She's currently just passed out from exhaustion." "Would you like me to watch the egg for you?" "No! I'm going to put Sash down and go back and check on it myself. You can go back to bed. It's still late in the night." After Terry said that, he continued to our room to put me down. As he did, Jill went to the incubation room and looked inside at the egg before she continued back to the servant's rooms. When I woke up the next day, I was still out of it from last night, "Wher
Late in the evening, I woke up to find myself alone in my bed, 'I told Terry he wasn't allowed to leave until I said he could...' I sat up in my bed and looked around to see if Terry was still in the room, "He even left the room..." I went to get out of bed, although I still felt exhausted. Even though I was still physically and mentally exhausted, I climbed out of bed and headed down the hall to the incubation room. When I entered the room, I saw Crimson sitting on Terry's seat next to the pedestal, "Mom?" The moment Crimson heard me, she got out of her seat as she looked over at me, "Sash!" Crimson rushed over to me and hugged me, "I'm so happy to see you! But what are you doing out of bed? You should be resting right now." "I had to come and see my egg. And when I woke up, Terry wasn't there." "I know how you feel. When I had you and your brothers, your Father had to make me leave the incubation room." As Crimson and I talked, I walked over to the pedestal and rested my hand
