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

A portal on the outskirts of Runit flashed a pale blue light, activated, and faded away after a few seconds. I remained in the arch of the portal, breathing a sigh of relief, the escape was a success. I wanted to fall on my knees and laugh with relief and happiness. I bought time for myself, and now I can calmly think and make decisions without being based on emotions. It's good that the Goddess allowed portals to reappear on this planet. But now they are stationary and controlled. Fortunately, I have enough strength to open such a portal myself, in comparison with other creatures of the planet - this is a great exception and a huge rarity. Units can launch a zero portal.I looked around and walked further down the street, throwing a blind eye on myself. She got to the hotel. The doors were closed, we had to go further, look for an inn. The owner let me in, even bought a thin gold bracelet at a favorable price for me. You have to resort to suggestion, otherwise he will deceive and che

The cook on this ship was a werewolf in years. She removed her eyes and walked over to him. She coughed softly. I had to back away sharply, as he nearly hit me."Baby, where are you from?" - and when I looked closely, I almost fell to my knees. - Madam!- Quiet! - shushed him."But where are you from?" Is it really you these two boobies are carrying like a load.- Yeah, they drove until I woke up. Will you feed? I only ask you not to give out that I have been released. I want to find out who paid them.“Of course,” said the old werewolf with a knowing smile. “But the captain will be angry when he finds out they were carrying you.We won't tell him yet.I got the leftover stew and a piece of bread. And clean water too. The cook could only give me a couple of cakes with him. I agreed that I would come to him the next night. And I learned from the werewolf that I had to swim for another week. Coming back was more difficult. On deck was the captain and several other young werewolves. I ha

First, I decided to find Captain Derrick. While walking, I asked for directions a couple of times. All the time I had the feeling that I was being watched. Someone looked in the back, albeit without a threat, but with a clear feeling that they were on their heels. To my great relief, I met the captain at the exit of a solid two-story house. There was no gate, only a small stone path leading up to the house. The house itself was white with many flowers around, you could see the flowers on the windows in the house. The captain was surprised to see me.- I hope you are fine? was the first thing he asked. I just nodded.And the man carefully examined me, as if looking for confirmation.- They gave me the money here, I wanted to exchange it and return it to you.Don't make it up, it's the least I could do. The Emperor must be angry as it is.I reassured him that you won't have any problems.- Let's go to the house. Are you aware that the guards are watching you?Yes, I feel them all the wa

Nairen stood up at my appearance and pulled out a chair for me on his left side. To his right sat a young nagini. A beautiful, spectacular, burning brunette with a bright beauty. The dress, which did not hide her virtues, did not even leave room for fantasies, everything was so tight-fitting. She barely looked at me, didn't even speak. But I quite well felt the waves of discontent from her, and also jealousy.At the table were also representatives of the nobility who worked here in the palace. And, judging by the similarity, the father of the favorite was present at the table. Everyone looked at me with curiosity, but no one asked questions. Apparently, until their master allows this, no one will start.“Nadezhda, you will stay with us again, I insist,” said Nairen. “You haven’t really seen anything yet. We are indebted to you, besides, we must somehow make amends for the oversight of our compatriot. And then you will have bad memories of our empire.I took the liberty of not answerin

I woke up to voices in my living room. I immediately recognized Lance and Vlad.“It’s a pity that I didn’t find it,” Lance said, “I wanted to look at the baby so much.I looked at myself, after waking up, I did not immediately realize that I was already in a human body. She quickly got up and dressed in a pantsuit. Went out into the living room.“Hello,” Las said to the smiling one, his wife was next to him.- Hello. Meet my beloved Tanya.“Pleased to meet you,” said the beautiful dragon.- Mutually. Can you help me with turnover?- Certainly! Lance said excitedly. “It’s only worth training outside, Tanya and I will have to turn around.“Hmm, just a question. And how do you change with clothes. And then I got tangled in my nightgown today and fell out of bed.“Usually parents give their children an amulet. He helps to put clothes in a subspace pocket, and when they turn back, they appear in their places. Growing up, we learn to do it on our own, and everything comes to automatism, - t

One of the advisors spoke up. She glanced at them once more. One with a small triangular beard, he was just talking to me. The other two are clean-shaven, no longer young, with intelligent faces and alertness in their eyes. The one who spoke to me has the look of a winner. Oh well.“Greetings, Your Majesty, born Princess Mariiska.“And you won’t cough,” she said calmly, it sounded very bold.The guys from my guards could hardly keep from laughing. It was felt in the mind. Hope they keep their faces. Roma had a forced smile on his face. As if overcoming some resistance, he spoke:“Counselors, they insist very much,” he emphasized with an intonation, “to get confirmation that you are a descendant of dragons, and not one of the dark magicians.“Due to the fact that you are saying this, my dear, I will ignore the fact that this sounds like an insult.She waved her guards to come closer. They stopped at a distance of one meter from me.“The fact that I am a descendant of dragons, I will sh

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
