The Silver Dragon Queen Never Surrenders!

That evening, Rossweise slowly opened her eyes. Before her was a pure white ceiling, beneath her a soft bed. The blanket covering her still carried a familiar scent.

She attempted to sit up, but found that she had no strength, as if all her energy had been drained from her. So, she obediently lay back down and tried to recall what had happened before she passed out.

She remembered using the Blood Enchantment on Leon that night. Witnessing Leon's willingly corrupted side satisfied her greatly. Then, under the dual effects of the dragon pattern, they quickly entwined together.

Afterward… it felt like she had slept for a very long time. During that time, she seemed to have had many dreams.

Some dreams were about Leon caring for her around the clock. Others were about Leon dressing her up as a shameful bunny girl to fulfill his strange desires while she slept peacefully.

She even dreamt… that Leon had died? Her daughters arranged a grand funeral for him—

Hmm, that must have been a dream. It was too absurd to be real. Such a thing could never happen.

But then again, why did she remain unconscious for so long? Was it because of the backlash from the Blood Enchantment?

Rossweise had conducted extensive research before using it, and with her dragon king physique, she should have been able to withstand the backlash from the Blood Enchantment.

Why did she fall into a coma after using it?

Could it be because she had… sacrificed her own—

"Ugh…"

Suddenly, a childish voice sounded beside her.

Rossweise glanced down and saw a tuft of little hair gently scratching her own hand. It was Muwen, the young dragon girl, lying at the bedside, breathing evenly as if asleep.

Rossweise smiled wearily but with relief, raising her hand to gently stroke her daughter's small head. This small gesture stirred Muwen awake.

Her brain not fully functioning yet, Muwen swayed drowsily on the chair, as if about to fall asleep again. Rossweise smiled and softly called out, "Muwen."

"Hmm… Mom? Mom, you're awake!" Muwen immediately perked up, her drowsiness gone. She grabbed Rossweise's hand, pressing her mom's palm against her own face, tears of excitement welling up in her eyes. "Mom, you're finally awake! Muwen was so worried about you."

"Don't cry, Muwen. Mom's alright," Rossweise wiped away the tears from her daughter's eyes and pinched her chubby cheeks. "Sorry for worrying you. What about your sister?"

"Sister went back to school this morning."

"Oh… she went back this morning." Rossweise did a quick mental calculation. When she fell into a coma, Noah had just started her break. Now Noah has gone back. That meant she had probably been unconscious for over two days.

Over two days…

Suddenly, Rossweise realized something and struggled to sit up. However, her body was too weak, and she couldn't muster any strength. The resilience of a dragon king's physique had allowed Rossweise to wake up earlier from the coma caused by the backlash of the Blood Enchantment.

However, although her consciousness had returned, her body was still being affected by the side effects. In other words, Rossweise was no different from being unconscious; she could only talk to her family now. And the thing she had just realized was… Leon.

But there was no sign of Leon anywhere in the room. He was a proud and intelligent man who would choose to endure and lie low to achieve his goals. And this time… her coma had created a perfect opportunity for him to escape.

Rossweise closed her eyes in frustration, biting her lip tightly, regretting her miscalculation from two days ago. Damn it. If she had calculated more accurately, perhaps he couldn't escape for long, so she could still send someone to catch him. Just as she thought—

"Muwen, how about we have fish for dinner tonight? I just caught a very—Oh, my beloved wife, you're awake."

That infuriating nickname, that smug tone—It was all too familiar!

Rossweise opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the voice. Upon seeing that bastard's figure, Rossweise rarely showed a surprised expression.

"You… you didn't leave…"

Her mind was still not fully awake after just waking up, and Rossweise blurted out the question that concerned her the most. Only after speaking did she realize that Muwen was beside her.

"Ah, I mean… I did leave," Leon shrugged, trying to smooth things over.

"I went for a walk in the back hills, you know, just strolling around, breathing in the fresh air."

Rossweise breathed a sigh of relief inwardly. "Well… and you caught such a big fish."

"Of course, to help my wife regain her strength."

"You—" Rossweise was left speechless.

A blush crept onto her cheeks.

"Dad, that's so embarrassing!" Muwen covered her ears.

Leon grinned and handed the caught fish to Muwen. "Go find Anna and ask her to prepare the fish for dinner. Oh, by the way, I need to talk to Mom alone for a bit, so don't disturb us before dinner."

"Okay, I got it," Muwen nodded, then hurriedly left the room, carefully closing the door behind her.

"I thought you might just leave your daughter and run away," Rossweise said.

Leon sat on the chair by the bed, leaned back, propped his legs up, adopting a bossy posture. "I still have a lot of things to settle, why would I run away?"

"Things? What things?" Rossweise asked.

He reached out his hand, wiggling his fingers between himself and Rossweise. "The things between you and me."

Rossweise's heart skipped a beat, sensing trouble. She withdrew her arm from outside the covers, although she already had a premonition of what might happen. Still, she asked, "What… what do you mean?"

"Do you remember what you did to me when I first woke up over a month ago?" Leon said, rising from his seat and sitting on the edge of the bed, reaching out to tuck a strand of Rossweise's hair behind her ear.

Rossweise stared at him intently. "No… Leon, I'm very weak right now…"

"Weak? Wasn't I weak back then too? I had just woken up ten minutes earlier, hadn't even had a sip of water, and then you walked in and did what you did to me. Have you forgotten everything?"

Rossweise bit her lip, trying to muster her magical power, but there was no response. So she tried to threaten him, "Leon, my body won't be like this forever. When I recover… you should know what your fate will be. So, don't make any decisions you'll regret."

"Regret? No, my dear wife, this is the best decision I've ever made in my life."

"Leon!…"

"If anyone should regret it, it should be you," Leon said slowly, pulling back the covers from Rossweise's body, exposing her perfect form to his gaze.

"You should regret rushing to seek revenge as soon as I woke up. You should regret using the Blood Temptation a few days ago. You should regret threatening me when you were completely defenseless."

Leon traced his fingers lightly over Rossweise's cheek, then moved downward, touching her chin, neck, collarbone, and shoulders. Finally, he undid the straps of Rossweise's nightgown, revealing the dragon tattoo on her chest, shimmering with a faint purple light.

"Leon… even though I'm weak now, do you think you're strong?" Rossweise challenged. "It's only been two days since I woke up from my coma. How much can your body recover?"

"Rossweise, I'm not afraid of you!" Rossweise might not understand that her words were only adding fuel to the fire. But to make her, the Silver Dragon Queen, beg for mercy was impossible. She would rather endure than kneel and beg!

Leon gently grasped her chin, the faint glow of the dragon tattoo and Rossweise's panic reflected in his black eyes.

"Shhh~~"

"My dear Miss Rossweise Melkvey, save your strength."

"Now, it's your turn to be the prisoner."
