(Drakken's POV)
"Are you not going to check in on Riktor????" Saera asked me as I entered Sylas's room, "Drakken!"
I shrugged, "He arrived at the Stepstones, what do you want me to do?" I said as I reached Sylas who was sitting down at his desk, "He's fine."
Sylas was reading a book when he looked up at me, "What is it?"
I grabbed a lock of his hair and cut it off, tying a small braid to keep the hair together. He was completely baffled by the act and didn't react to it until I turned around and began to walk away.
"What are you doing, Father?!" He exclaimed
Saera walked up to me, "Why are you cutting his hair?" she asked with a scowl, "Drakken, you're going to mess his hair up."
I looked at Sylas who had stood up from his seat and was holding his hair, "What?" I said, "He looks stupid with that hair. He is better off cutting it."
"No, how could you say that?" Saera smacked my shoulder, "He looks fine! Now he looks stupid because you cut off a lock of it. I am going to have to fix it myself!"
"What was the reason for cutting my hair, Father?" He asked with a frown
I stared at him for a couple of seconds and turned around, "Experiments."
"Wait." Saera grabbed my wrist, "Tell the truth."
I looked down at her hand and then up at her, "I am."
She frowned, "That is a lie. I know it." She said, "There must be a real reason for it."
"There is." I said as I pulled away, "I've got to go now."
"Drakken...." She said as she hugged my arm, "Are you going to neglect me today?"
This was a sudden shift of tones. There must be something she wants and I know it won't be good. I really don't want to waste time on it today.
I sighed, "What do you want?"
"I want my husband to please me all day." She said as she rubbed my chest, "Is that so wrong to ask?"
"I am going to be busy, Saera." I told her, "Can it wait?"
"No." She said, "Let us spend some time together~ We need to talk about a lot of things."
"Can you two not do this in my room?" Sylas asked
I scowled, "Let go of me, Saera." I said, "I have to go now."
"I'm so worried about Riktor." she pressed against me, "Please go and see him."
"I am not going to go see him, drop the subject." I told her, "If you want to have sex, fine! Let's have a quickie in our chambers. Come."
I teleported us to my chambers and she was blushing as she sat on my bed, flicking her hair back as she leaned back.
"Fufu~" She said, "If I can pleasure you enough, can we go see Riktor?"
"No." I said as I set the lock of hair down on the table, "But I will make sure you won't bother me for the rest of the day."
"Come and ravage me, My Love~" She blushed slightly
I walked over to her and reached down for her thighs, gently groping them as she gave me an alluring stare. She was so beautiful, this clingy woman.
I crawled atop her as she laid down and felt her arms around my neck, "Hm...." I said as I leaned down and kissed her lips briefly, "What is it you truly want, Saera? It better not be another child, there's too many of them already."
"No." she said softly, "I do want to see Riktor."
"He's going to be fine." I said as I groped her breasts, "You worry too much."
"I feel like I am the only one that worries..." she let out a soft moan, "Am I then only one that loves him this much?"
"Mya is his mother." I said as I kissed her neck, "She loves him even more. But worry not about that boy, he will be fine. We've been through this. If you wish to be distracted, so be it."
"I'll do just that."
*****************
"Oh, sister~" Saera slowly got off the bed, barely putting her dress back on, "How thoughtful of you to come and check on us."
Maegelle was standing in front of the bed with a neutral look to her face, her hands were in front of her as she looked right at me, "The two of you were here? Having sex?" She asked, "Well....I cannot say I am surprised."
"Did something happen, My beauty?" I asked as I was lying down on the bed, giving her a smile, "Does it require my attention?"
"No, Drakken." She said as Saera walked over to her, "It is the usual. Your sons are doing the same thing as always and your daughters are fine. If that's what you're worried about."
"I'm not worried about them, my dear." I said with a slight smirk, "I know they're fine."
Saera wrapped her arms around her waist and leaned her chin on her shoulder, "Sister, you should join us one time." She said with a teasing smile, "Wouldn't that be fun?"
Maegelle blushed slightly and closed her eyes, "Absolutely not."
Saera adjusted her dress and fixed her hair, "I will go and see my daughters now." She said with a chuckle, "I will see you later, My Love~"
I nodded, "Of course."
As Saera walked away, Maegelle opened her eyes and looked to the table, seeing the lock of hair sitting atop it.
"What is this for?" She asked me as she walked up to it, "Why do you have Sylas's hair?"
"For a reason you shouldn't worry about." I said as she picked it up
She looked at me, "Does this have to do with the dream you had?"
"No." I told her, "It doesn't."
She nodded and set it back down, "I see." she said, "A dream of the future.....of your home...what do you think it means?"
"It means that one day, a Dragon God as strong as I will emerge." I said, "Which is quite interesting. Most Dragon Calamities that emerge either die off due to their bodies not handling the power or they end up being killed by the Chaos Demons. I've killed seven of them myself but not because I am threatened, but because I wanted to test them. They failed...."
She walked up to my side of the bed, "But you're here." She said softly, "You will stay here, right?"
I reached for her hand and raised it, giving it a kiss, "Of course, Maegelle. I am here." I said, "And I won't go anywhere. Now....for the most important question."
"Want to have sex?"
