Meeting with Neria cheered me up and blocked all the bad mood from the attack of dark magicians. And then another little surprise awaited us. Marin, my student, gave birth a little prematurely, shortly after the holidays began. And looking at her with a child, I felt sorry for the girl that she got into such a difficult situation when everyone turned away from her. Now, while she was recovering from childbirth, she did not let go of the child from her hands almost around the clock.- Marin, I have to ask you again: have you changed your mind?The girl looked at me with eyes full of tears.- No, I really hope that the family you found will love him like his own. This will not happen in my family, the two of us will be outcasts. And so the baby will have a chance for a happy life and a loving family. I just want him not to hate me in the future, but to try to understand. That this was the best way out.- I'll ask him to pass it on. While you have time, enjoy being with your child.- Tha

On this dance, thank the gods, ended. I hope I still keep my face and it doesn't say that I want to kill someone. Now Nikita quickly picked me up for the dance and squeezed me so much that I came to my senses."I'll kill him," I said in a barely audible voice.“Noticeably, by the gleam in the eyes. What did he say?“He will challenge Runit in order to gain the land where the damned is sealed through victory in a duel. Prior to that, he offered to sell the land, I sent him, politely. Said he'd issue a formal challenge.- Accept. How many fighters?- One.You understand that you shouldn't go.- I'll be a spare, - the grandson gritted his teeth at my answer.Judging by the thoughts that flashed through his head, he would have to ask Emil to go to these fights. The enemy from Deliria will most likely be one of the dark magicians. They will try to disguise it. But the emperor of Deliria could not hide his thoughts from me.- I'm proud of you. And what I talked about with Amir, he looked to

But my opponent decided to have a bite to eat with me and released dark magic. I physically did not have time to take off my swords when his "tentacles" reached out, but could not touch me. I felt that a light cocoon was enveloping me, looking around, I realized that this cocoon resembles an egg in shape, only from dense yellowish energy, as if from the sun. I heard another surprised sigh from the audience and a selective checkmate from Daniel.At that moment, I felt that I could control this energy, as if it had become an extension of me. Although this is clearly the help of the gods. I formed a shield and a sword from this energy and charged at my opponent. I myself did not notice how the shield was transformed into a second sword, and I immediately began to fight with two energy swords at once. I realized that if I thought about it even for a second and doubted it, then they would eat me alive here.A few seconds later, as I had swords of light energy, I saw horror in the eyes of m

Nick-Mark contacted me a couple of days later. She invited him to the palace and reminded him that someone else was still alive here.- Zhenya! Still alive? - the guy was delighted. - I will definitely come! How are you“Better,” she said with a sad smile. - Nikita and Maxim, my grandchildren, they began to woo me. Moreover, Maxim generally decided all the same to whom, if only I would not be sad. And Nikita somehow found out that Emil was in love with me and said bluntly. It was unusual to be proactive in relationships, something I had never done before. Usually I was put before the fact - that I like you, and we will be together. And then even I had a choice: do I want to consider this candidacy. Do you live in a hostel?- Yes. Mother was a little furious that I ran away here. She caught two more and did not let her go, she said, too early.- Two more?“Um, you understand that I’m not human anymore, right?” I nodded. - Mom is a leopard, they have normal multiple pregnancy. Three of

My suspicions were confirmed in just a couple of days. Everything is standard: at one glance at the horses, it starts to make me sick. Also, the smells are stronger. The guys from the security did not react in any way, it was not clear to me whether they had already smelled it or not. And when I went to Yen, he was surprised at my question. And after diagnosing it, I was even more surprised.- And what's so amazing about that? – asked a bit ironically.- Not expected. Now Ramira distracts everyone with her tummy and you were not smelled only because of her. You and your student are always together.“I see, I need a motion sickness potion. I also have the recipe in my notes and in the book. Can you cook?"Yes," the doctor said, a little hesitantly.- Clearly, let me show you the first time, you will remember and then you will cook yourself.- Thank you, Your Majesty!Just as she was preparing the potion, Emil came in with a few guards.- The place for practice was checked, the bandits

The day when the ruler of the Nagas was to arrive was no different from other days. Went for a walk after breakfast with one of her Potions books. Decided to re-read. I didn’t feel like reading romance novels now, and scientific treatises even more so. I didn’t even notice how I ended up alone in the park. After all, I went and read. Turning around, she didn't see any of her guards.“Emil,” she called softly, “just don’t joke.”I went to the exit from the park, my heart was a little anxious. Now I walked every day, the dark ones could take advantage of this and attack me. I don't want to face them one on one. Having reached the exit from the park, she did not find her man or the guards. I can't say I wasn't surprised. But she saw how her grandson and his retinue met the ruler of the Nagas. The rulers exchanged greetings and the naga looked in my direction. She chuckled to herself. Of course, he is handsome, and authority is written on his face. And the strength from him is not hefty f

Arthur and Laira got married as soon as the girl graduated from the academy. I was happy looking at them, and, frankly, I was really looking forward to when they would please the heir.Today my youngest son turned five years old and was allowed to attend the ball in honor of the Gods for the first time. The boy with Emil and I grew up very calm and reasonable. Vlad frowned at his brother.- Are you jealous? Vlad asked.- No, he seems to be a child, but as serious as his dad. It is immediately obvious - relatives!- Grandmother! - Arthur was delighted, he approached Laira and me. - I'm glad you came. Hey Niki.The child smiled contentedly and held out his hands to the relative. He was immediately picked up by the arms and hugged tightly.- We are also glad to see you, you are our little wolf cub. Already turning around? Arthur asked Emil.- Yes, I've gotten used to it.“Congratulations again on your wedding,” she said to Arthur and Laira.Half an hour after the start of the ball, I not

I walked around the city with a guard of three werewolves - Mathis, Rerik, Matthew. The guys were worried about my condition. I saw myself in the mirror and understood their concern. I have never looked so lousy, even after the funeral of relatives. And according to my recollections, even after the funeral of their husbands. Now I was like a pale shadow of the self that I was until recently.Rita was surprised to see me, the children were delighted, hugged a little and ran away for a walk. The girl immediately seated me at the table in her shop, organized tea with sweet muffins. I sluggishly dabbled in the bun. Rita, looking at this, quickly cut it for me so that I would definitely eat and not pinch off the pastries. I noticed how she tensed up when the man came in. He brought in a fresh muffin and began unloading it onto the counter. I watched him listlessly, without much enthusiasm. The daughter-in-law, looking at me and my indifference, decided to stun me.- This is Terim, he is my

I woke up on my own, the doctor was not there yet. The first thing I noticed was white hair. She chuckled. The transformation does not happen just like that, I did not age, but my hair became white, like chalk, reflecting my inner state. Everything seemed to freeze inside. The doctor, when he saw me, was afraid, not of my appearance, but that I could quickly grow old and die. But after examining I calmed down. Following the shock awaited the rest of the relatives. Neriya took my change more calmly, explaining everything to the others:- Rejoice that only the hair has changed, she is holding up well. She could have died in her sleep. Our changes are reflections of our inner state. And white hair and faded eyes are a reflection of grief.And I didn’t even notice that something happened to my eyes, now I didn’t care. The servants and palace guards shied away from me a little at the funeral ceremony and then for several more days. And I had a strong apathy and did not want to do anything.

On the day of the wedding, I had to reassure Anastasia.- Well, why are you nervous? she asked kindly. “You know you don’t have to worry.“I look too fat,” she said, sobbing.- You should have married a couple of hundred years ago, as soon as you met. Or, at least, fifty years ago, while you were carrying your first son. Nastya, you and Sasha already have a third child, and you are still not married, this is no good. And in general, who is the future Empress Runita here? You should be wondering what anyone thinks. Yeah, you don't look very graceful and like a twig is about to break. They look like this on the slides. So - either we postpone the wedding and upset all the guests, and wait until you give birth and recover. Or you wipe your nose first to yourself, and then to everyone who wants to slander. What you choose?Nastya wiped her tears, and I removed the redness from her face and allowed the maids to do cosmetics and hair styling.- Whom to punch in the face? Father asked when N

While Grandpa watched the two-hour video, I was a little nervous and drank soothing tea. The husband sat in the same room and read the documents. When I reached for the teapot again, he pushed the cake towards me.“Eat better dessert, a lot of sedatives is bad, master of potions.Father tried to hide his smile. And then quietly said with regret:“It’s a pity, Victor, that you won’t be able to fly with us."Yes, I'm sorry too, but you'll have to replace me." Because I am living out my life,” grandfather looked at my husband tenaciously at these words, “I already live longer than any other dragon. And I have only a few years left, or even less. And I will go to the forefathers in heaven. Perhaps we will meet with my beloved again, but not on this planet. Nadya is my other half, and I have lived a very happy life. True, there is a small problem with this.- Which? - a question immediately from the father and grandfather.- When a half dies, the second of the spouses can die of longing. A

Seeing Nerija at dinner in a pearl dress, she was very surprised.What or who made you wear the dress? I asked in surprise.Neriya smiled and shot her eyes in the direction of my daughters and granddaughters.- Clearly, the girls sang. Do not destroy the palace for joy.After dinner, grandfather approached one of my grandsons, Alexander.- What do you want, grandfather? the guy asked softly, but relatives and friends know that his softness is deceptive, his character is steel.“Can you show me around the palace and talk to me?”The grandson glanced at me and mentally asked:“Grandma, Grandpa wants to know something about you? What to tell him?“At your discretion ,” she answered slyly.- What do you want to know? Sasha asked, changing from softness to strictness.Marcus felt it right away.“I just want to know how my great granddaughter lived here. Or did she not tell you?- She told me a lot, I can give history books to read. Many books have been written about the Empress.- I will d

How can you describe the six thousand years that you live with the man you love? These are millennia of happiness, tenderness and great support. In the history of Runit, these millennia were marked as an era of prosperity.Victor is still alive and even cheerful, which cannot but please me. We had ten children, and now we were expecting another child.In the speed after our wedding, I had to let Whirlwind go so that he could live out his horse age. I had to do the same with the vorlaks. They lived in the menagerie for several more decades, and then the whole family went into the wild forest. It was a difficult but necessary decision for all of us.“Nadya, don’t strangle Zhenya,” the husband said with a smile, “it’s easier for you to give him a sleeping potion to drink again.” It will be more reliable, so we will know for sure that he will get enough sleep.Did you hear your husband? – cautiously asked a friend, but I saw that he was smiling. - And in general, mother, it’s bad for you

At dinner, Victor had to be seated next to him. Other officials looked at him not exactly in surprise, but from some there was envy, from others hidden anger. Few people were happy for him, there were only a few of them. Most, to one degree or another, believed that the dragon was well settled and was building a career through bed.“I wish you strong nerves ,” she mentally told him when he sat down next to her.“They will have to choke on their own poison. I don't intend to please anyone. And compared to the anger that I faced from real dangerous criminals, this is so - a mosquito squeak.I changed my views on food a little, and Nathan influenced me a little. And when dinner was brought, the men, and they were in the majority at the table, were pleasantly surprised. The food became more satisfying, there was more meat. Now they were throwing grateful glances at Victor. And he looked at me with delight."Thank you! Now I don’t have to run every day to the tavern for a good portion of m

Victor.I just nodded and asked:“Have you seen the artefacturer today?”- No.Scored it on the crystal.“Yes, are you bored at the ball there?” he asked sleepily. - Let me sleep.“You’ll oversleep the slaughterhouse,” he said calmly.Already attacked? Where?- Ballroom.- I’ll come right now, creeping bastards don’t let me sleep. They will regret that they climbed into the palace.He was still mumbling something about revenge and ingenuity. I broke the connection and accelerated. In the corridor near the hall it was somehow peculiarly dark. I had to start spinning the sword in the corridor and cut through the darkness. Only then was he able to enter the hall. And I saw Hope. She was like a goddess or a ray of light that fluttered through the darkness and smashed the attackers. Only our swords, which we raised, saved us and the soldiers - and the darkness did not approach us. We have not seen faces and people. There was a strong oppressive feeling, as if there were no more people in t

Nadezhda Raniyskaya.“Grandma, you should rest for the ball tomorrow night,” Nathan reminded her.Seeing how I wince, he decided to finish me off with another piece of news:“I ordered a new dress to be made for you. Will you try on? Preferably today. I'll go check.- That's an order?! – asked with undisguised malice.- God forbid, the Almighty, - the grandson waved it off cheerfully, - just curiosity.I went to look at the dress. The maid gladly rushed into the dressing room and brought a voluminous cover. And where did they hide it.- The dress was only brought today, literally an hour ago, - the answer to the unspoken question. - I will help?- Of course, Marie, I definitely won’t wear it alone.The dress was gorgeous. Nathan still has a taste, and the size seems to have guessed right. Without a rigid corset, but with lacing on the back. The sleeves are translucent of the finest lace and a small scattering of precious stones. I think if I twirl in a dress, there will be a very beau

I slept just great. Judging by the clock, it's already the second half of the day. Immediately called the maid and asked to serve breakfast in the living room.“Mistress, a dragon wants to get to you,” the girl hesitated, remembering the name.— Victor?— Yes, sorry, I forget his name.- Not scary. Then bring two sets of sweets for tea. Let him come in and wait in the living room.- Can I help you?Marin, I'd rather be on my own. Take breakfast.She quickly cleaned herself up and put on a three-piece suit. The castle was cold. Breakfast was already served, and my dragon was standing with his hands behind his back, looking out the window.“I hope my empress has had enough sleep and will not kill an impudent visitor?”I look at him and try not to smile too openly. He broke down first and laughed.“I’m sorry I wasn’t there yesterday, I would have saved you from the officials.- Get them away from me. But the guys are great, they managed to put up shields. But now I have slept, rested and
