Gunttra sat on his throne with a pissed off expression etched into his handsome face. His court is getting greedy and ridiculous day by day, it's like they're trying to rile him up on purpose. His eyebrows were furrowed with his chin on his hand, a displeased frown playing on his lips as he was forced to listen to them go on and on about getting more land from the neighboring Leiliu Empire who they're cordial with. In fact, he's maintained a good friendship with their emperor.

The half-dragon emperor was tempted to reach for his sword and silence them all before the doors to the throne room were opened and in steps in his pregnant beloved.

With the finest silks and jewels adorning their gorgeous figure, highlighting the swollen bump of their stomach. The emperor's scowl replaced with a smile in adoration as he quickly makes his way to his beautiful spouse.

"My dear, why walk? You could have asked a servant to fetch me and I would be more than delighted to come to your call."

The emperor's voice was deep and husky, laced with the fondness and veneration Gunttra has for his dearest. He places his large, calloused hand on his pregnant spouse's bump, feeling the warmth and the life they made together that he could not be more proud of.

All the lands he conquered, wars he won, fights he ended victorious in, successful peace treaties with different kingdoms and territories could not compare to how greatly and wholeheartedly he feels about his pregnant beloved is carrying their first child. 'His and his beloved darling's little one'
