Life After Being Claimed by the Disabled Dragon Lady - Chapter 22
Bright, warm candlelight illuminated the dining room, and Butler Marcia was arranging for the servants to prepare dinner for Long Ling.
Tonight’s dinner consisted of cheese steak and a large bowl of vegetable salad. The melted cheese was golden, spread in a small pool over the medium-rare steak.
The steak had been pan-fried with red wine and butter. When served, the butter still sizzled on the plate, and the aroma of sautéed minced onions filled the air, accompanied by some herbs.
The vegetable salad was drizzled with a rich vinaigrette and a few drops of fresh lemon juice, made with fresh, seasonal ingredients: lettuce, small radishes, cucumbers, purple cabbage, celery leaves. The red and green colors of the vegetables created a harmonious palette.
Long Ling also noticed a few pieces of sweet and soft pumpkin, uniformly mixed with fresh, thick cream.
The cuisine in this world offered many innovations. Even cheese, which was rarely available in the palace before, could be supplied fresh daily here, simply because the Illidari Manor had both a farm and a ranch.
While setting the tableware, Butler Marcia kindly informed Long Ling, “Her Highness has gone to bathe and instructed you to eat plenty. You do not need to wait for her for dinner. These dishes were specially purchased from the elves, and the quality is excellent. You may enjoy them.”
Disgraced, yet perhaps not entirely. The Evil Dragon Miss provided her with dinner but wasn’t eating with her.
Long Ling’s stomach rumbled with hunger. She speared a piece of cut steak with a metal fork, put it in her mouth, and chewed slowly. The steak was tenderly pan-fried, and the addition of cheese gave it a rich, fragrant texture.
She then ate a piece of the beautiful lettuce leaf. The leaf still had crystal dewdrops, and it was crisp and slightly sweet, with the dense sweetness of light cream adding a delicate flavor to the fresh vegetables.
As soon as she finished, Butler Marcia immediately served her a portion of steak and salad with a different flavor.
This proves that good food can heal a wounded heart. Long Ling immersed herself in the meal, happily finishing five or six pieces of steak and three portions of salad. Her mood was indeed much better.
For a human, this might be too much food, but it was just right for a newly adult little dragon.
Wiping her mouth clean, she couldn’t help but ask, “Doesn’t the Illidari Manor have a farm? Why were these vegetables bought from the elves?”
Butler Marcia explained, “The farm has been abandoned for a long time; it’s all planted with pasture grass now. Her Highness only began arranging for the chef to make different foods daily after you arrived here.”
So the Evil Dragon Miss still cared about her after all. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have specially changed the menu and bought high-quality, elf-grown vegetables just because she didn’t like the previous dishes.
Long Ling cheered up, “Butler Marcia, have you prepared dinner for the Duchess? If not, I can make a portion and take it to Her Grace.”
Butler Marcia looked surprised for a moment, then presented a pre-prepared food container. “This is the dinner prepared for Her Highness. You may take it to her.”
Long Ling took the heavy food container into her hand. It felt as weighty as her suddenly nervous heart.
When she reached the bedroom, Elina informed her that the Evil Dragon Miss was still in the bathroom.
Elina bowed and said, “I will announce you for you.”
Long Ling quietly thought to herself: people say she is the Evil Dragon Miss’s fiancée, but in reality, even the personal maid can enter the Evil Dragon Miss’s bathroom, while she has to wait for an announcement.
Although Long Ling harbored many small, secret dissatisfactions, she could only wait quietly outside.
Not long after, Elina returned and told her, “Her Highness asks you to come in.”
Long Ling nodded slightly, carrying the food container, and walked alone to the bathroom. As she reached the bathroom door, her heart rate immediately soared.
This was her first time entering the bathroom while the Evil Dragon Miss was bathing. She wondered if the Evil Dragon Miss was wearing any clothes.
Feeling a bit shy, Long Ling lightly knocked on the bathroom door.
“Come in.”
Long Ling pushed open the bathroom door. The room had just been ventilated with the window open, and the scent of rose pheromones still lingered.
She subconsciously sniffed with her nose. The sweet rose pheromones of the Omega surrounded her. She hadn’t bitten the Omega’s scent gland in the afternoon, and she still felt an inexplicable desire.
Perhaps it was Alpha instinct—even the softest and most gentle Alpha would feel a stirring of possessiveness when encountering the Omega they had surface-marked.
Long Ling scolded herself inwardly: Stop thinking about it. You can’t have anything, yet you keep thinking of these meaningless things.
She had spent all her silver coins today buying an aphrodisiac for the bed, but it looked like she wouldn’t need it. She should have bought some suppressants instead.
She was too easily provoked by the Evil Dragon Miss’s pheromones. This couldn’t go on.
Long Ling held her breath and walked up to Violet. “Your Grace, I’m here to bring you dinner.”
The bathtub was filled with bubbles and petals. Violet ‘s beautiful body was faintly visible beneath the petals. Her smooth, jade-like shoulders were exposed, and her long, curly hair was all wet, making her look like a seductive siren.
Long Ling stood one step away from her. Violet was a little displeased by Long Ling’s attempt to keep her distance, but recalling Long Ling’s miserable and pitiful look on the way back today, she maintained some patience for the time being.
She lowered her eyes slightly and asked softly, “Just put it down for now.”
Long Ling clutched the food container in her hand. “It will get cold if you leave it too long.”
Violet finally turned to look at her. Long Ling held an exquisite food container, and her fair cheeks were flushed pale pink by the steam in the bathroom, making her look very obedient.
She couldn’t help but ask, “Did you like dinner tonight?”
Long Ling was a little flattered and quickly nodded. “The vegetable salad was very refreshing and delicious, and the steak was tender and juicy. I ate a lot.”
Violet subtly glanced at her small stomach.
Long Ling bowed her head in shame. The Evil Dragon Miss wasn’t in the dining room, so she had eaten her fill by herself.
She subconsciously sucked in, but her little stomach was still round after the meal, and her earlobes couldn’t help but turn red.
Violet ‘s lips curved slightly as she recalled transforming Long Ling into a little baby dragon with magic.
The little baby dragon’s snow-white belly was soft and smooth. She lightly poked it with a finger and knocked the little baby dragon over.
Thinking back, she couldn’t resist holding the little baby dragon in her arms because Long Ling always wore a pitiful expression, making her want to tease her.
If Long Ling hadn’t been a dragon, she might have considered eating her; she would probably be very delicious.
Violet didn’t have much appetite for food, but she was somewhat intrigued by the shy little baby dragon.
“Come here. Bathe together.”
Perhaps because they were in the bathroom, Violet ‘s voice sounded hoarse and low, lacking some of her usual cold, arrogant nobility. This dialogue sounded like a lover’s whisper.
Long Ling froze for a moment; the entirety of her dragon body instantly flushed red, from the inside out.
Long Ling quietly sniffed herself. She was very clean, with no trace of sweat. She was afraid the Evil Dragon Miss would smell something she disliked later.
But the mere thought of taking off all her clothes in front of the Evil Dragon Miss and being in the same bathtub as her made her feel like she couldn’t breathe.
Long Ling, clutching the food container, retreated slowly with a flushed face. “There are other bathrooms in the room. I’ll just use another one later.”
Violet narrowed her eyes; her deep gaze looked cold and clear. “Hurry up and come over here.”
Long Ling’s secretly retreating steps were instantly pinned in place by her cold words.
The big evil dragon just loves to bully her!
She and the Evil Dragon Miss would definitely get married in the future. Other Alphas must have experienced bathing with their future wife. If she didn’t bathe together today, they would eventually.
She put down the food container, slowly turned around, and took off her dress.
The soft, fair body of the young girl was completely revealed. The butterfly bones on her smooth back looked ready to take flight, her silver-white long hair cascaded down to her waist like a waterfall, and two shallow dimples above her hips were faintly visible. Her long legs were straight and slender, and her snow-white skin radiated a moist glow under the bathroom light.
Because of her intense shyness, a delicate pink layer surfaced on her fair skin, like the petals of a white magnolia holding the morning dew in early spring.
In Violet ‘s eyes, Long Ling now looked like a sweet strawberry shortcake, exuding a fresh and delicious scent.
The little shortcake didn’t know how delicious she was, so she covered herself tightly with her dress, inching slowly toward the bathtub.
Long Ling reached the edge of the tub. She quietly glanced down and could see the Evil Dragon Miss’s flat, exquisite collarbone—sexy and alluring.
Long Ling blushed unnaturally and suddenly felt it harder to breathe.
She originally intended to find a spot to settle, but the tub was full of petals and bubbles, and she was afraid of accidentally stepping on the Evil Dragon Miss.
Long Ling, head down, walked around to the other side of the bathtub, secretly using her foot to poke the bubbles on the water surface. She only saw the smooth, flat red bottom of the tub and confirmed that she hadn’t touched the Evil Dragon Miss’s leg before slowly submerging herself.
The water temperature was just right. As soon as Long Ling sat down in the bathtub, she realized something was wrong. The smooth, scaly feel beneath her was all too familiar; it was the exact sensation of the scales on the Evil Dragon Miss’s tail.
Her face instantly burned red. She didn’t know whether to sit down or stand up. Her entire dragon body froze in place.
Ahhh, why didn’t I look carefully just now? That’s not the bottom of the tub; it’s the Evil Dragon Miss’s dragon tail!
The more nervous she became, the more her own dragon tail came out, as if disobedient, and wrapped around the Evil Dragon Miss’s dragon tail, tightly intertwining them.
Long Ling didn’t dare look down. She gripped the edge of the bathtub, her arms tense, trying hard not to accidentally press down on the Evil Dragon Miss.
“Why are you so far away? Come closer.”
Violet was somewhat dissatisfied with Long Ling’s overly timid demeanor.
The silver-white dragon tail was wrapped so tightly and forcefully around hers. Clearly, this was a lustful Alpha dragon.
Long Ling was called over by Violet. She felt too embarrassed to stand up directly, so she slowly moved along the edge of the tub, doing her best to pile the petals and bubbles onto her own body.
She swam to Violet ‘s side, surrounded by a multitude of rose petals.
Long Ling’s long, dark lashes were lowered throughout, not daring to look at the Evil Dragon Miss. Her pale pink lips became a little dry from the heat, and the small, red tip of her tongue couldn’t help but lick her lips.
Violet unexpectedly saw Long Ling’s soft, red tongue and couldn’t help but look closer.
Long Ling truly didn’t know where to look, afraid of offending the Evil Dragon Miss, so she whispered, “I’ll be done washing soon.”
Her hands quietly dipped down, splashing some water onto her body to wipe herself. If she were bathing alone, she would probably use a washcloth and soap, but with the Evil Dragon Miss beside her, and given that the soap she used last time didn’t satisfy the Evil Dragon Miss, she was even more afraid to make any hasty movements now.
Thus, Long Ling kept her movements controlled, cautiously and slowly cleaning herself.
Violet noticed Long Ling’s small actions and realized she was actually starting to bathe seriously. Was this Alpha really different from other Alphas?
In her office, Long Ling couldn’t bite her scent gland and was so anxious that tears almost fell. Not being allowed to perform a temporary mark made her seem as if she had suffered a monumental grievance, and she was heartbroken and sad all the way home.
Now that the pheromone temptation was gone, Long Ling had no desire at all?
Violet felt an inexplicable annoyance toward Long Ling. Do Alphas only have pheromones in their minds, and nothing else?
Violet ‘s rose pheromones subtly intensified in response to her mood.
Long Ling inhaled more and more of the rose-scented pheromones. Her cheeks grew redder, and she, who had been diligently washing her body, gradually developed a fine layer of sweat on her forehead.
Crystal-clear beads of sweat rolled down Long Ling’s temples, suspended on her delicate little chin. Her bright red lips were bitten even redder by her white teeth.
Although Long Ling looked a bit gentle and delicate, she was still an Alpha. When faced with the seductive pheromones of an Omega, she was easily stimulated into the most genuine physiological reaction.
Her heart pounded faster, her breathing became rapid, and a layer of moisture misted over her icy blue eyes. All that filled her mind was the urge to mark the Omega.
She wanted to restrain the Evil Dragon Miss’s hands and trap her beneath her, just as the potion she bought had described, making the Evil Dragon Miss never want to leave her.
Long Ling blushed crimson with shame at her disgraceful thoughts. She quickly turned away, her gaze searching around until she finally spotted the familiar location of the bathrobe.
There seemed to be only one bathrobe; it must be the one the Evil Dragon Miss usually wore.
Would the Evil Dragon Miss get angry if she wore her bathrobe?
Long Ling couldn’t worry about that anymore. She had to get out of the tub immediately.
Otherwise, if she was provoked by the pheromones over and over again, she would lose control of herself.
As a worthless little gift, how could she constantly harbor such rebellious thoughts?
Every time Violet baited Long Ling, the little dragon took the hook easily.
This was the first time the little dragon had shown resistance and wanted to escape.
Violet frowned. “Where are you going now?”
Long Ling’s attempt to sneak away was exposed. She turned her head and explained with a blush, “It’s a little hot in the bathroom. I want to go out for some fresh air.”
Violet ‘s gaze fell upon Long Ling’s red lips, slowly tracking downward.
The line of the young girl’s slender neck was smooth, but her swallowing motion showed how hard she was restraining herself, with even her chest involuntarily rising and falling.
The sweet and delicious strawberry shortcake was melting, and the scent of strawberry pheromones filled the air. Violet couldn’t help but consider another matter: if an Alpha restrained themselves for too long, would they lose their marking ability?
For the sake of their future life, an inspection was necessary.
“You are not allowed to leave now.”
Violet was always dominant. Her long fingers lightly brushed against Long Ling’s cheek. Her skin, which felt like solidified cream and fine jade, was delicate and warm to the touch.
Her thumb slowly stroked Long Ling’s red lips. They were as soft as petals, slightly cool from contact with the cold air.
This little mouth sometimes spoke sweet words that pleased her, like it contained sugar, and sometimes it was as silent as a broken gourd, not saying a single word.
Long Ling tilted her face up. Her breathing became rapid and intense with the movement of Violet ‘s finger tracing her lips. As that finger moved her red lip down, her gaze couldn’t help but meet Violet’s deep, cold, and beautiful eyes. Her dark golden pupils were noble and enchanting.
Violet looked down at Long Ling, her voice ambiguous and suggestive. “Open your mouth.”
Long Ling’s throat bobbed, and she slowly parted her rosy lips.
The Alpha’s canines, used for marking, looked sharp and strong. Only the base of the teeth looked a little red and swollen. Her soft, red tongue subtly retracted, quietly hiding from her.
The little baby dragon’s cheeks, originally fair, were now completely pale pink. Her icy blue eyes, misty with moisture, kept staring at her, looking so pitiful it softened the heart.
Violet glanced at her, then withdrew her hand. “You look fine. You can go out now.”
Long Ling was stunned for a second. Crystal tears shimmered in her eyes, and her knuckles silently curled. She had been terribly tormented by Violet ‘s pheromones. She thought Violet would comfort her, but she did nothing.
She was exerting herself to restrain herself, almost reaching the point of exhaustion.
Long Ling was resisting Violet ‘s rose pheromones with all her might, so much so that she didn’t even have the strength to utter a soft sound.
Violet noticed that Long Ling still hadn’t moved. A flush of color touched her earlobes. She glanced at her and said softly, “Not leaving yet? Do you want to stay and massage my shoulders?”
What’s the difference between this and asking a clingy puppy to guard meat?
Long Ling’s eyes immediately lit up. She moved closer. “Yes, I want to help you with a massage.”
In just a few short days, massage had almost become Long Ling’s secondary profession. No one remembered that her main job was being a chef.
The little baby dragon was indeed extremely clingy, unwilling to be chased away.
Violet hadn’t applied a suppressant patch in the bathroom. The bathroom window was open, and the night breeze carried away some of the pheromone scent.
Under the warm candlelight, her smooth, fair back was exposed. Her curly, soft long hair hung down to one side. The woman’s firm abdomen curved downward, and her seductive, enchanting silhouette was semi-obscured between the bubbles and petals.
Long Ling’s hands climbed onto Violet ‘s shoulders, her slender fingertips uncontrollably sliding down.
The cold, snowy skin shivered slightly as her fingertips passed over it, spreading a charming blush along the lines of her muscles. The Omega’s rose pheromones were intoxicating.
Long Ling couldn’t resist tilting her head, using her soft lips instead of her fingers to kiss Violet ‘s side neck.
This time, without the Evil Dragon Miss’s permission, she did exactly what she wanted most.
The ensuing events were natural. The pheromones of the two fused too intensely; their scent permeated the entire bathroom. Eventually, they had to leave the bathtub and continue by the window.
Violet was fully held in Long Ling’s arms, surprised by the Alpha’s astonishing arm strength. Several times, she felt too overwhelmed and wanted to break free, but she was restrained by the immersed Alpha, constantly letting out satisfied, hazy gasps.
Her hands were bound behind her back—absolute possession. After the temporary mark was completed, Violet leaned exhausted in Long Ling’s embrace.
Her proud and noble eye corners were stained with seduction, and the thin, red marks of where Long Ling had tightly restricted her were visible on her delicate white wrists.
Long Ling affectionately stroked her wrists, occasionally blowing on them. Wisp after wisp of sweet little strawberry scent intimately intertwined around them.
The little baby dragon, who usually acted soft and pitiful, was actually greedy during the marking. Once wasn’t enough, so she went for a second time, and then many more times…
The scent gland on Violet ‘s neck felt prickly and numb. She had planned to punish the little baby dragon, who had been insatiable, but now that she was sated, she was too lazy to bother with Long Ling.
She pushed Long Ling away with her hand and instructed, “Carry me to the bed.”
Long Ling knew she had been a bit too eager just now, and the marking time was a bit long. The Evil Dragon Miss had provided too many pheromones, and she truly couldn’t bear to let go at the critical moment.
Fortunately, the Evil Dragon Miss didn’t blame her. Long Ling took the bathrobe from the side and helped Violet put it on. “Wait a moment. Put on your clothes. Although the bathroom is warm, you just sweated. If you don’t keep warm, you could easily catch a cold.”
She forgot that she hadn’t put on clothes herself and bent over to help Violet tie the belt, making a practiced butterfly knot.
Long Ling’s hot, red dragon horns occasionally brushed against her soft skin. A warmth surged in Violet s lower abdomen, and she couldn’t help but reach out and playfully pinch the dragon horn as punishment.
When Long Ling looked up, bewildered, Violet said faintly, “You tied it too tight.”
Long Ling obediently acknowledged her, lowered her head, untied the bathrobe belt, and tied it again. Her dragon horns were pinched several more times by Violet. Although there were fewer nerves on the dragon horns, she could still feel Violet teasing her.
Just when she finally finished tying the belt for Violet, she heard Violet speak towards the outside of the bathroom, “Elina, bring another set of bathrobes.”
“Yes.” Elina’s voice came from outside the door.
Long Ling’s face immediately turned crimson. How could this be? Did someone hear her and the Evil Dragon Miss doing that for so long?
Violet saw Long Ling’s look of embarrassment and raised an eyebrow. “You don’t want Elina to bring you a bathrobe? Do you intend to go out and get one yourself?”
Long Ling immediately fell silent, looking at the Evil Dragon Miss with pleading eyes. The Evil Dragon Miss remained unmoved.
Hearing the approaching footsteps outside, she quickly hid back in the bathtub.
Sure enough, Violet wouldn’t get it for her; she was only accustomed to being served.
Elina knocked and entered the bathroom, placed the prepared bathrobe on the rack. She was much more skilled at serving the Evil Dragon Miss. First, she cleaned Violet ‘s jade-like feet, then put them into warm, soft shoes.
Elina then took a clean white towel and carefully dried Violet ‘s wet long hair.
Violet was long used to Elina’s service, but after being temporarily marked by the Alpha, she felt a slight impatience when the little strawberry shortcake wasn’t by her side.
Her lips were lightly pursed, but she still didn’t rush the shy little baby dragon. She simply said to Elina, “Go heat up the food container and bring it back later.”
Elina left with the food container, leaving only Violet and Long Ling in the bathroom.
The sound of trickling water echoed. Long Ling emerged from the bathtub, hastily dried herself with a towel, and put on the bathrobe.
Afraid of making Violet wait, Long Ling voluntarily wrapped her arms around Violet ‘s waist and lifted her in a princess carry. “Your Grace, I’ll carry you to the bed now.”
Violet nodded slightly. Her white bathrobe was loose, outlining a soft curve across her chest. Her long legs hung naturally in Long Ling’s arms, and her whole body looked incredibly beautiful and seductive.
She glanced at Long Ling’s wet hair and snapped her fingers. Long Ling’s wet hair floated slightly under the control of magic and was instantly dried.
Long Ling realized Violet was taking care of her, and a warm current flowed through her heart.
Although Violet hadn’t allowed her to deep-mark, the temporary mark allowed the turbulent pheromones in her body to be soothed by the reciprocal pheromones from the Omega. It felt like a cool, continuous drizzle had fallen—an indescribable sense of comfort.
Long Ling carried Violet to the bed, placing a pillow behind her.
After Elina heated up Violet ‘s dinner, she brought it into the bedroom. Long Ling took it voluntarily, scooped up the seafood chowder with a spoon, gently blew on it, and brought it to Violet ‘s lips.
“Your Grace, it’s a little hot. Please drink slowly.”
The Alpha, after the marking, was particularly attentive, emanating an entire dragon’s worth of reliance on her. The blush on her cheeks and neck hadn’t faded, and her crystal-clear dragon horns were pink.
Violet couldn’t help but wonder: Does Long Ling like her, or does she only like her pheromones?
She felt a sudden, unreasoning displeasure and wanted to step on Long Ling’s dragon tail.
The silver-white dragon tail was quietly tucked beneath the bathrobe, with only the very tip exposed.
If her legs hadn’t been disabled, this little baby dragon would have been stepped on countless times by her.
But seeing the gentleness in Long Ling’s eyes, Violet still drank the spoonful of soup she offered.
The warm, smooth soup slipped into her stomach. Violet recalled the period when she was injured and recovering. She suffered from illness and took many different high-dose medications.
The ingredients in those medicines made her sleepy, and when she woke up, she would be uncontrollably furious. She never improved. The doctor said her body could no longer take suppressants, and other medications had to be stopped. That was when she accepted the suggestion of her elders and chose a suitable Alpha to try.
Looking at the current situation, perhaps everything was the most suitable arrangement. Marrying an Alpha was not bad after all. Having such a caring little dragon by her side, whose strawberry pheromones were soft and sweet, eased her body and mind the longer she smelled them.
Violet was finished being fed the seafood chowder by Long Ling. The strawberry pheromones softly sprinkled over her, like she had just eaten another delicious dessert, reaching a state of subtle intoxication.
Long Ling collected the tableware Violet had used and handed it to Elina for cleaning. When she walked back into the bedroom, Violet was resting on her side, propping her face up with her palm, waiting for her on the bed.
The white bathrobe had slipped down a little from her narrow shoulder, and her deep-set eyes were laced with seductiveness.
Long Ling saw this alluring scene and, feeling like she had just absorbed enough pheromones, suddenly felt a little “hungry” again.
She quickly walked to the bedside, voluntarily turned off the dazzling overhead light, leaving only the warm bedside lamp, and moved closer to Violet.
In this quiet and cozy moment, Long Ling suddenly wanted to call Violet by some intimate titles, such as “Wife,” as Butler Marcia had said, or “Veral,” as Prince Loran had called her today. She wanted to be closer to the Evil Dragon Miss.
She silently thought for a while, then felt a bit shy, unsure how to change the address so suddenly.
Violet, however, closed her eyes, seemingly not intending to chat.
Long Ling had no choice but to obediently pull up the soft, fluffy blanket, covering both her and Violet.
She couldn’t help but curl her lips, then nervously and slowly reached out an arm, gently embracing Violet in her arms.
The Omega’s body was very soft. Holding her felt like gathering a soft cloud. The blanket covering them smelled of sunshine, having been properly aired. Long Ling felt like she was lying in a pile of white clouds—a very happy feeling.
Violet merely treated Long Ling as a comfortable pillow. The little baby dragon’s body was also soft and smelled faintly sweet. Only her heartbeat was too fast.
The pounding heartbeat sounded loud in the silent night. Violet, who had just been through intense intimacy, was sleepy. She frowned slightly and patted Long Ling’s smooth dragon tail.
Long Ling thought Violet wanted to talk to her and tensed her body.
She waited for a long time but didn’t hear Violet say anything. Just as she was about to speak up, her silver-white dragon tail was patted several more times by Violet.
“Be quiet. Don’t let your heart beat so fast, or you’ll have to sleep at the foot of the bed.”
Violet s voice was a bit hoarse, carrying a trace of sleepiness.
Long Ling sniffed. The Evil Dragon Miss was really domineering; she even controlled her heartbeat, completely unconcerned about her feelings.
But she still relaxed her body, bowed her head, and very softly wished Violet, “Good night.”
Violet lightly rubbed against Long Ling’s neck, and her hands also wrapped around Long Ling’s waist.
Long Ling’s heart sped up again. She couldn’t help but quietly add in her mind, “Good night, Veral.”
Even though they didn’t do a deep mark tonight, she felt that hope wasn’t completely lost. If the Evil Dragon Miss was still willing to favor her, it shouldn’t be considered a complete loss of favor. When the Omega’s heat period arrived, combined with the expensive potion she bought, they should surely succeed.
Speaking of which, to buy that bottle of potion, Long Ling had spent all the money she had. Now, she was once again a poor little dragon with no savings.
However, the Evil Dragon Miss had entrusted the farm to her management. She could arrange for people to plant some vegetables tomorrow. If they had a good harvest, those vegetables could be sold to the people in the nearby town, and she could also use them to make special dishes at a low cost to sell in the tavern.
Before everything got on track, her crystal kitchen should be finished and tidied up. She could first make some dishes for the Evil Dragon Miss to try. If even a noble like the Evil Dragon Miss was satisfied, she would then teach others to make them and sell them at the tavern. This would surely open up the market.
Long Ling spent so long planning in her mind that the sky was almost light before she finally fell asleep.
When she woke up the next morning, Long Ling was initially a little disappointed, thinking the Evil Dragon Miss was gone from the bed again.
But as soon as she opened her eyes, Violet was still in her arms, sleeping peacefully. Her long, curly hair hung smoothly over her. The subtle fragrance of roses was easily detectable.
Long Ling’s mood instantly became joyous and excited. She almost forgot that Butler Marcia had told her yesterday that the Evil Dragon Miss would be resting at the manor today!
Her eyes shone brightly. Her gaze was too intense, and Violet s eyelids fluttered, quickly waking up.
“Your Grace, good morning.”
Violet saw Long Ling’s happy expression, and her lips couldn’t help but curve slightly. “Good morning.”
Long Ling’s hand was still wrapped around Violet ‘s waist. No matter how reluctant she was now, she had to let go.
The sun was shining brightly outside. Long Ling voluntarily sat up in bed. “Let me serve you today. I can help you get dressed.”
Violet gently shook her head. “Go ask Elina to come in.”
Long Ling was momentarily stunned, feeling a tiny hint of disappointment in her heart. Did the Evil Dragon Miss not need her after all?
She quickly adjusted her mood and said warmly, “I’ll go find Elina now.”
Even in front of a close bedmate, Violet didn’t want to be treated by Long Ling as a helpless invalid.
Moreover, she was accustomed to using Elina for her daily activities. Her wardrobe contained many clothes, and letting the little dragon search would only mess up the wardrobe and make it difficult to find what she wanted.
Rather than that, it was better to leave professional matters to a professional.
Elina was dedicated to serving Violet. As if knowing Violet would look for her first thing in the morning, she had been waiting outside the door early.
The moment the bedroom door opened, without Long Ling needing to say anything, Elina gracefully bowed to Long Ling and walked in with the items Violet would need for the day.
Long Ling couldn’t help but think: In the days before I appeared, Violet was always accompanied by Elina, wasn’t she?
Then, what exactly is my position in Violet ‘s heart?
Long Ling didn’t want to think too deeply, but sometimes, a person’s emotions are not something they can control.
With Elina serving Violet, Long Ling only needed to wash up and change into a beautiful dress herself in the morning.
After a simple breakfast, Long Ling was about to take Violet to look at the farm when Rennie came over and said, “Your Grace, Miss Long Ling, the crystal kitchen is finished. When do you have time to inspect it? If there’s anything unsatisfactory, I can change it on the spot.”
Long Ling was surprised for a second and nodded. “Let’s go take a look now. Your Grace, would you like to come with me?”
Violet nodded slightly. “Alright.”
The colorful crystal kitchen was located in the rose garden and was already completed. The main structure of the kitchen was made of sturdy, beautiful pine wood, and the walls and ceiling were constructed of polished crystals of different colors. The bright light reflecting through them refracted beautiful and romantic rainbows.
Rennie, wearing a yellow safety helmet, had a sparkling green magic light installed on her head. The other squirrel beastmen were just like her, with magic lights of different colors added to their heads for safety.
They wore blue overalls, their bushy tails wagging, holding various tools. Looking from a distance, it created an indescribably dreamy scene.
Long Ling was completely satisfied. She couldn’t help but exclaim, “It’s so beautiful! I’ve never seen such an exquisite house!”
Violet raised an eyebrow. These crystals were indeed irresistible to dragons, but the raw stones used for building materials were usually processed coarsely, without fine carving. The little Alpha dragon probably hadn’t seen anything more magnificent.
Rennie breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Long Ling was very satisfied. Taking off her safety helmet, she said, “Miss Long Ling, after taking on your job, we built it day and night for a full day. Thank you and Her Grace the Duchess for hiring us. We’ve also prepared a gift for you.”
Long Ling couldn’t help but sigh with emotion, “You worked so hard. You even prepared a gift for me.”
Rennie adjusted her black-rimmed round glasses. “We prepare a gift for every employer. Thank you for your support and trust.”
With such good business and high efficiency, they were truly super cost-effective squirrel beastman construction workers.
Long Ling, thinking about the tavern she urgently needed to repair, couldn’t help but ask, “Now that the kitchen is built, can I hire you to repair other buildings? I also have a tavern.”
Rennie sincerely said, “If it’s a job given to us by Miss Long Ling, we will prioritize it. Duchess Veralotte was willing to take us in and has always helped us, and the cost of building the kitchen this time was also paid for by Duchess Violet. This is our biggest order recently.”
I see. It was all because of her fiancée.
