Two Thousand Years Ago

2,000

in the kingdom of Nevetha......

The war was fierce, all supernatural creatures and their spirit beasts joined forces to fight against King Haule, the demon king of Nevetha.

King Haule saw he was losing, his demon warriors stood no chance against them. It was an unexpected fight and he wasn't prepared. On a normal day, as the second Lord of the supernatural, he would have killed all with just one slash of his Dark curse sword, but not today.

His beloved mate who was pregnant was going through pains which surprised him.

A dragon wouldn't give birth until 1,000 years later, but his wife and mate was a half dragon and a half elf, her delivery date wasn't due so what is wrong?

"Are you all right, Elfey?" He asked worriedly.

They were inside his palace and could hear the clanging of swords and war shouts but Haule didn't care, all his attention and thoughts were on his wife. His kingdom midwife was with them.

"I am okay my love." Elfey replied smiling as she placed her hands on her small bulged stomach.

"This is a false alarm my King."

"Then why the pains?"

"I don't know my King, maybe it's because she is a hybrid and this is the first time a dragon who is an elf will be pregnant."

The door to their chamber opened and a guard came in.

"I'm sorry for barging in, my king and queen." The guard said going down to his knees. "But the Grand King is on his way here and they have conquered the two Gates that lead to this palace, I'm afraid they will soon be in the palace."

"Thank you, you can go. I will join you and the rest soon." Haule waited until the guard had left before he returned his gaze to your wife. "You have to run away my love, I will try to fight and hold them down and that will give you enough time for you to escape with my child."

"I'm not leaving you Haule, no, we promise to be at each other's side even in death." Elfey said with tears. "I can't leave you now."

"You have to save our child, please Elfey."

"Okay, if that will make you happy my love," she said.

King Haule smiled and focused on the midwife. "Grab a few things and take her through the palace secret passageway quickly, we don't have much time." He said. "Please, take care of her."

The midwife nodded her head and quickly did as told, as she had packed a few clothes in the Queen elf magic bag, she lifted up the Queen from her bed.

"Promise me you will be safe?"

"I promise you, once this is over my love, I will find you." King Haule promised.

Queen Elfey smiled and kissed him briefly, they turned to go but he stopped them as he made his Dark curse sword appear in his hands and gave it to his wife. "In case you encounter any obstacles when you escape, you are a great warrior."

"What about you? How will you fight without your sword?"

"I have others, I will be fine." Haule replied, the war chants were getting closer and closer. "Go now my love."

"I love you Haule." Elfey said taking his sword and they left quickly.

Haule made another sword appear in his hands and instead of joining his warriors, he went to his throne room, waiting for them, knowing fully well they would know where he is.

"I can't do this, my Queen."

"You have to Pula, I can't leave my mate, please." Elfey pleaded.

"Okay, you've been kind to me and that is why I am agreeing to do this." The midwife now known as Pula said.

"Thank you." Elfey said, handing Pula her Dragon egg covered with blood. Her eyes flashed gold and her spirit beast, a black Jaguar with wings appeared before them. "My spirit beast will take you to meet my elves sister's." She gave the sword covered in leather made in fire, given to her by her husband, to Pula. "Only my child or me or my husband can remove the sword from the leather. Give it to my child when he or she comes of age. Thank you for everything Pula."

Pula collected it and climbed on the black Jaguar and it flew away.

Elfey ran back to Nevetha, ignoring the blood pouring out from her stomach and in between her legs.
