My Beloved Black Dragon

"I know you are not marrying me willingly, Miss Quentin, but I promise you, I will share everything I have with you. You don't need to worry about your livelihood."

That was when I snapped out of my thoughts. I looked at him standing next to him. I could smell the fragrant scent on him. It was a cool scent that strangely made me feel safe.

I looked up and smiled at him.

"Liam Thorn, there's nothing unwilling about my choice. Choosing you is the best decision I have ever made. Please call me Sadie."

There was a flash of emotion in his eyes. He nodded in reply.

On the day of the wedding.

The Wolves' wedding ceremony was much grander than in my past life.

Silas decorated their wedding hall with red, in accordance with Lucia's liking. The palace was covered with lights and colorful streamers, and they even invited the Elf Clan, who hid themselves from the world, the Dwarf Clan, the Centaurs, and the powerful witch. Almost every Human of noble blood was also in attendance.

Only the main families of the Black Dragons attended the wedding.

Before Lucia got into the wedding car, she showed off the love marks on her body, which were visible from the thin material of her wedding gown.

"I had no idea that a Wolf King could have so much stamina, Sadie. Looks like I'll be able to give birth to an heir soon."

As she looked at me in delight, I smiled as I looked back.

"I hope your wish will come true."

She must be dreaming.

The genes of Humans, Wolves, and Dragons do not match at all. Even if we had Blessings, it would require at least three years to get pregnant naturally. I had to use all sorts of tricks and everything I had in my past life just to have a baby.

Lucia knew that I got pregnant after half a year. She had already announced to the Wolves that she would have a child within half a year. Silas believed her, and so did other wolves.

I ignored her.

She sneered. "There's no need to be stubborn with me when you're marrying into such poor territory. I heard that the Black Dragons don't even have hot water during winter."

Lucia turned to get into the car, but I grabbed her.

"Apologize, Lucia."

She pushed me away and shouted angrily, "Are you crazy?!"

All the guests watched us argue.

My father rushed over to us, and when he found out what had happened, he got Lucia to apologize in public.

It did not matter how dire the Black Dragons' situation was; they should not be insulted in public.

Before Lucia left, she clenched her teeth and whispered into my ear.

"Sadie Quentin, the Queen of the three clans, will be me."

The night of the wedding.

I was mesmerized the moment Liam took off his clothes.

He had wide shoulders and a narrow waist. He was rippled with well-defined muscles. His upper half was covered with dark golden Dragon marks. There were scales on his waist.

The thigh muscles on his lower body were well-toned and tight, but… It was magnificent.

I stood where I was with slight hesitation. Liam looked at a loss. He put on his clothes to leave.

That was when I grabbed his sleeve. "Where are you going?"

He pulled on his clothes. "I won't force you if… You're unwilling."

The look in his eyes dimmed.

I pulled off the clothes he had put on and dragged him under the covers.

The wild air about him enveloped me.

"You'll make sure I enjoy the night, right?"

I closed my eyes.

He paused. The next thing I knew, his kiss came down on me passionately. He kissed every surface of my body.

It was a long night. He finally let me off when it was dawn.

Three months later, I received news of the Wolves. Lucia was pregnant.

I was stunned for a full minute.

The three clans had been in an alliance for two thousand years, and no Human and Beast couple had been able to conceive within three months.

However, I saw her pregnant belly with my own eyes.

The Wolves had organized a big party. Every known power player attended to congratulate them.

Silas looked extremely happy while in the main seat.

As the guests arrived, they flattered him extensively while attempting to find any opportunity for a piece of the pie in the future.

Everyone seemed to think that Silas was the future ruler of the three clans.

Liam and I were supposed to sit in a corner, but Lucia had made a special request for me to be seated next to her.

She smiled at me while prominently pushing up her belly.

"It doesn't matter that you're the legitimate daughter, Sadie. You can't get pregnant even if you have Blessings."

I glanced at her calmly and raised my glass.

"The fastest mixed heritage pregnancy in history took forty months, but you only took three. You know very well where you got the baby from."

Lucia's expression changed. She snapped around to look at me. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

I was not bothered to look at her. I got up and left. "Here's hoping that you have a smooth delivery."

Mixed heritage pregnancy took only four months. The baby would get bigger, and bigger. Lucia had just gotten pregnant, and she had already gained a lot of weight. She would suffer during childbirth.

Three months later, news of the Wolves came once more. Lucia had suffered difficulties at birth. It took her five days and five nights to have her baby.

However, half a month had passed, and the Northern Wolves did not make plans for a celebration. They did not even allow anyone to see Lucia and her baby.

Something was wrong with the baby.

Another half a month passed, and my father suddenly called me home.

Liam returned with me. We heard Lucia's heartbreaking cry the moment we stepped into the living room.

She was carrying a gray Wolf cub in her arms.
