When The Dragon Girl Fell In love

A thousand years past, Kunshiya kun ruled the Dragon clan—a dominion forged through centuries of bloodshed and conquest across Atakar. Crowned Dragon King after vanquishing rival realms, he sought to secure his legacy, yet his Queen Tekiya's iron grip over the inner palace ensured no concubine would ever bear his heir. Tormented by his inability to produce offspring, Kunshiya endured endless pressure from his court ministers, each council session a reminder of his failure.

During a brutal eastern campaign, Kunshiya encountered Salsa, a captive dragon slave whose pristine white scales and penetrating dark green eyes ignited an unexpected passion. One night changed everything. Fearing Queen Tekiya's wrath and her network of spies, he concealed Salsa in a hidden estate beyond the city walls, determined to keep their connection secret.

Kunshiya believed he had buried his feelings until vivid dreams invaded his nights—Salsa's voice calling to him, her touch burning through his consciousness.

"My king, we are going to have some hatchlings," she whispered in the darkness.

"My king, I miss you."

Unable to dismiss the vision, Kunshiya summoned his Royal Astronomer at dawn. The ancient scholar's revelation shook the throne: "The moon goddess has blessed you with hatchlings, my king. Your vision speaks truth."

Within the palace walls, a spy delivered the news to Queen Tekiya, her crown glinting as fury consumed her features. Her voice dropped to a lethal whisper: "If I cannot bear his heirs, neither shall any imperial concubine. So long as I reign, every one of them will fall."
