"Ah-Rock, something is not right tonight," Long Xiurong said as she sat beside her husband in the den. She gently patted her pregnant belly and continued, "I have a feeling that our dearest princess and Beast King are in danger."
She didn’t know why she said those words, knowing her husband was very sensitive about Gale and Swan.
Rock Silverfang had easily ruled over the island after Saintess Swan told them to make this place their new home. They were well fed and well sustained here. Every day was peaceful for Long Xiurong.
But Rock kept his training every day, believing that Princess Swan and the Beast King would eventually need his help once more.
He was very focused on both his training and also his new married life with his mate, Long Xiurong, especially now that she was pregnant with their first cub.
However, it had been a while since they last saw Saintess Swan, and Long Xiurong had accepted that maybe Swan simply didn’t want them in her life anymore. After all, both Rock and Long Xiurong were still fugitives to the Beast King.
Unfortunately, Rock became extra sensitive about that. He still truly believed that his dearest princess wouldn’t abandon them, and she would eventually return to take them back to the Kingdom of Beastmen someday.
Thus, Long Xiurong rarely mentioned Swan or Gale around her husband anymore.
At least until now.
She had been feeling restless and sad for no reason lately. Her mind kept wandering to the beautiful Saintess who saved her back then.
"Do you feel what I’m feeling right now, Ah-Rock?" Long Xiurong asked. "I feel... uneasy."
Rock nodded. He wrapped his arm around her waist to pull her closer, "I also feel the same, Ah-Rong. Something is happening on the main continent—" Rock pointed out in the sky. "Look at those dark clouds. It’s not normal. There must be someone powerful who controlled those clouds to block the moonlight, which is His Majesty’s source of power."
"T-then, does that mean Princess Swan is in danger?" Long Xiurong asked. She hugged his arm tightly, feeling anxious over her best friend’s fate.
"I hope not," Rock murmured. "If she is in danger, then she should call me, and I will find a way to help her. She is our Saintess, after all."
Long Xiurong nodded.
Long Xiurong and Rock stayed in their den for a while until their eyes were blinded by the sudden radiant light that entered their den.
They closed their eyes for a few seconds, and once they opened it again, they saw a beautiful woman with a gentle glow around her body. She carried a baby in her arms and smiled at them.
"Princess!" Both Rock and Long Xiurong wanted to kneel in front of her, but Swan used her power to hold Long Xiurong in place, so it was only Rock who kneeled. freёwebnovel.com
