Dragon King's Harem Chapter 301. Suitable Queen
My question made Evelina fall silent, her cheeks turning a deeper shade of red as she mulled over her thoughts. When she finally spoke, her voice was soft but genuine. “I do want you,” she admitted, her eyes avoiding mine. “With or without the thought of bearing your child. I just... want to be with you.”
Her gaze drifted toward the cityscape, sparkling under the twilight sky. “But...” she murmured, almost as if sharing a secret with the wind, “I know I can’t be possessive. If I let jealousy take over, it’ll only create problems in your harem, and I don’t want that.”
I stayed quiet, letting her words sink in. There wasn’t a shred of disappointment in me, only a deeper appreciation for her understanding. Evelina wasn’t asking for exclusivity. She was thinking bigger, about keeping the peace and balance in what might become an ever-growing harem. It struck me how invaluable she could be in helping me manage it all.
The future was unpredictable, and who knew how large my harem might grow? But in Evelina, I saw someone who understood the bigger picture, someone who could help me navigate this complicated path.
The silence stretched between us, and I could see her start to fidget, her worry evident in her expression. “Your Majesty,” she finally asked, her voice hesitant, “did I say something wrong?”
I smiled, hoping to reassure her. “Not at all,” I said, my tone soft. “I just got lost in my thoughts for a moment. But your answer? It was perfect. I appreciate your honesty.”
Reaching out, I pulled her into a gentle embrace. “I truly hope, one day, you’ll be the one to bear my child,” I whispered.
To my surprise, he nodded politely, a gesture that carried an air of respect rather than hostility. I nodded back, unsure of what to make of it. He turned away, continuing his path into the palace.
Evelina joined me shortly after, her expression thoughtful as she gazed toward the palace courtyard. “They’re here for Evelyn, aren’t they?” she asked, her voice soft.
I nodded. “Most likely. With you married to me, she’s the next focus for alliances. I just hope this doesn’t get messy.”
Evelina sighed, brushing a strand of hair from her face. “Evelyn won’t let herself be used. She’s stronger than most people realize.”
I couldn’t help but admire her faith in her sister. We stood there, watching the Serpent Tribe prince disappear into the palace, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that things were about to get a lot more complicated. Whatever happened next, I’d need to tread carefully.
