3 months later, Hyunjin's pov

"Come on, girl! We are almost there, " I shouted as Syrinx flew over Asteria

We were racing with Chan's sister, Princess Hannah, with her dragon, Melaera, and Syrinx, and I were currently first, and we were racing to the dragonpit

Syrinx flew us to the dragonpit, and we became first, and Syrinx landed down on the ground, and then Hannah came with her dragon, Melaera

"We won!" I excitedly said when Hannah landed down and slid off her dragon, and she laughed

"You're getting better and better every day, Hyunjin," She said while she walked to Syrinx, and she helped me to get down from her

"How long do you have to go?" She suddenly asked me, and I felt her hand caressing my stomach

"Well, the physician said I'm in my second trimester." I smiled, and the Princess smiled

"Then I am going to finally meet my new nephew or niece." She smiled

"We should go back to the castle." She smiled and she grabbed my arm, and we walked back to the castle

After an hour

We arrived back in the castle, and everyone was happy and joyful again. The servants of the castle greeted

The sickness was finally gone after everyone took the cure, and we mourned for the people who died during the outbreak of the La Cuna sickness. It killed many people of the whole Empiria. The lowborn people suffered the most whole families are gone because of this sickness

The symptoms were also known; sweating, fever(cold and hot) shivering, throwing up, coughing, coughing up blood

For pregnant women, it could cause a miscarriage or a stillborn

The last stage was the death

I hope and pray to Goddess that such a disease would never come again and Let's not forget the sacrifice of the nymphs, Aurora and Calliope gave their lifes for the humans. So to honour them, I asked the builders to build a hospital with two statues of the nymphs, and the builders builed also a statue of me because the lowborn were thankful that I found a cure

So I stood in the middle and on each side of me stood a nymph and behind us there was a woman standing. The builders told me it was an ancient goddess of healing and life

I was currently walking to the council where Chan was with my two ladies, Jaehaera and Katherine

Chan and his commanders were planning a war, again, but this one was the last one he said

I entered the council room while Jaehaera and Katherine waited outside. The commanders and chan were discussing

"We have to attack now," one of his commanders said called Changbin he was the most loyal commander of Chan, and he was also the commander of his armies

But then they saw me, and Chan looked at me with a smile

They stood up, and they bowed

"Your grace." I smiled, and I walked to chan

Chan smiled when I stood beside him

"What is he doing here? He is not allowed here -"

"He is my husband, your king," Chan snapped to the younger commander, and the younger commander immediately shut his mouth

"The council is dismissed, leave us alone," Chan said

"Of course, your grace," they said, and they left us alone

"Planning again a war?" I asked him, and chan nodded

"The last one, I promise," he said, and my hand went slowly to his hand

"They are more important things than planning a war," I said, and I slowly grabbed his hand and put his hand on my belly

"How is our little prince or princess?" he said while he got on his knees, and he kissed my clothed belly

"They are fine." I smiled, and chan got up and he stood in front of me and he put a hand under my chin and he softly kissed me and I kissed him

"Don't leave me alone," I whispered and pouted, and he pulled away . He looked at me, and he put his hands on my cheeks

"I will come back to you, I promise," He softly said, and he kissed my forehead

"I don't want to become like his mother, dowager," I thought, and I just smiled

Later the day

"Take this," I said as I gave chan a cloak because it's getting colder and mostly when you're flying a dragon

I was currently in the dragonpit saying goodbye to Chan. He was about to go to war with his sister, princess Hannah, and with their dragons Nightshade and Melaera

Chan and his sister are going to try to bring peace and justice to free cities outside of Empiria there were many rebellions, mini wars between houses and one of them is our most loyal companion so we can't lose them, Chan said

"Thank you, love," he whispered, and he kissed my forehead

"Be careful and also protect your sister," I said, and I put my hands on his armor, and I looked at him

"I will," he whispered

"Swear it to me that you both will come back home," I said

"I promise you, my love," He said, and I sighed

"Chan, the dragons are ready," Hannah said, and Chan and Hannah walked to their dragons and they climbed up

Eventually they flew away and I stared at them

"Hyunjin, come" The dowager Queen said and I nodded

"May the Goddess protect them" I thought
