Chapter 71: Scissor Legs
For Naya, in this complex deep palace, only Iris, as the Dragon King, can give her a sense of security.
If even the Dragon King is not resolute, Naya wouldn’t know whom to turn to for justice.
“Are you really deciding this?”
“As long as you’re willing, it can be decided however you want. To me, they are not family. If it weren’t for you, Iris, I wouldn’t even glance at them.”
“Executing them is a bit too much, right? I’m afraid you’ll get labeled a tyrant.”
“What do you want to do then? Hmm?”
What Naya wanted was Iris’s attitude.
She wanted Iris to convey the strictest punishment to her, to let her know that Iris stood unconditionally on her side.
Naya thought for a moment and decided on a punishment that felt satisfying.
“Make them kneel in public and apologize to Illya. A hundred bows, and they should bow as forcefully as they can.”
“Okay.”
Naya’s tense nerves finally relaxed.
Leaning against Iris’s shoulder, Naya asked with some concern.
“If you punish them like this, won’t the other dragon ministers consider you a tyrant?”
“How could that be? The strong can humiliate the weak, this is the survival rule among dragons.”
For Naya, whether the young dragons were executed or made to bow meant nothing, as long as to vent her anger.
But she also had to consider whether it would affect Iris’s reputation.
“Ah… this place really isn’t good at all. I want to go back to the castle.”
“See? I told you there was a reason I didn’t bring you out.”
“But since we’re here, it wouldn’t be good if I suddenly went missing. And after this lesson, Illya should understand that she can’t become friends with the royal brothers and sisters. From now on, Illya just needs to listen well.”
Though it might seem cruel for Illya, Naya couldn’t let her remain a caged bird forever.
She couldn’t choose to continue locking Illya away in a paradise just because of a little setback. Otherwise, Illya would forever be just a fool living in a fairy tale.
True happiness is remembering the warmth of home and a mother’s love even after witnessing the cruel world outside, while still holding onto expectations for the future.
Naya hoped to be Illya’s support.
To guard Illya as she grew, not to imprison her.
“Hmm, I’ll listen to you. Whatever arrangement is fine, my Queen.”
“You seem rather dismissive?”
Naya shrugged, a bit dissatisfied, pushing off the weight on her shoulders.
To Iris, this was indeed a minor matter. Using her title as Dragon King to punish those little dragon cubs might somewhat undermine her status.
Illya was tricked by her companions and went to the beach to be ambushed by the Heroes. It was true they were not righteous.
However, in such situations, it’s supposed to be Illya who becomes strong enough to overcome difficulties, returns, and gives them a good beating, then personally decides how they should be punished.
Instead of her Mother using her identity as the Dragon King to punish them.
After all, the dragon world follows the principle of survival of the fittest. If Iris intervened on the behalf of Illya, people would think Illya was bullying them by taking advantage of her status.
In that case, everyone would see the royal princess as a weakling who couldn’t fight and only relied on her mother when faced with difficulties.
But as long as it made Naya happy, Iris is even willing to play tricks on those royal princes or princesses, let alone bully others by relying on her status as the Dragon King.
Let alone using her identity as the Dragon King to exert power.
Whether Illya was strong or not should not be judged by the gossip of others.
Currently, Illya indeed had great talent but couldn’t fight and lacked cunning, she was far from being the heir to the Dragon King.
“Do you want me to make a sour face too, punishing everyone in the palace to write a confession about why they didn’t keep a close eye on Illya?”
“Are you saying I’m making a sour face?”
“No, no. Illya hasn’t suffered any harm, right? Just remind her a bit more in the future, don’t get angry.”
Right now, Naya seemed like an unreasonable little powder keg, igniting at the slightest touch.
Iris tightly held Naya and softly comforted her restless heart.
For Illya’s sake, Naya didn’t even bring up the topic of Leo first.
It was easy to imagine how important Illya was to Naya. Iris kissed Naya’s shoulder.
Naya pouted.
She felt very wronged.
Even though she had Iris’s promise to punish those little dragon cubs, Naya was still upset.
She was upset that her daughter was bullied by others, especially since she was the daughter of the Dragon King.
When had her precious Illya ever suffered such grievances?
For six years, she had treated Illya like a treasure, fearing she would get hurt, not letting her face any danger.
And now, after just moving into the palace for a little over a week, Illya encountered this.
Naya was furious.
Angry that the incident had already occurred, and Illya had already been harmed.
As her body temperature gradually rose, Naya tightly closed her legs, suddenly realizing the situation was getting out of hand.
“I still want to see Leo later, let’s not…”
“What’s wrong? Is Leo more important than me?”
“No, uh…”
Naya’s head was turned around, and her mouth was blocked.
“Uh ha… ha…”
Three minutes later, Iris lifted her head, and Naya looked at her with tearful eyes, leaning against Iris’s arm, her body feeling utterly soft, the fuse of her inner desires already lit.
“I need to handle this little powder keg of yours, come on, relax your body.”
“You’re the real powder keg…”
Naya pushed Iris away.
They had fought so fiercely last night, tonight was better left alone.
Iris took a deep breath and submerged into the water.
“What are you doing?!”
Naya felt an unusual sensation in her calves, somewhat flustered.
“Ah!”
Suddenly, Naya was lifted out of the water, and her unstable form forced her to grab Iris’s dragon horn tightly, her legs locking around Iris’s head.
Iris’s neck was surprisingly strong.
Even being squeezed by her scissor legs, she remained stable in the water.
But… but this position…
Isn’t it a bit too strange?
Naya looked down at the bright red hair beneath her, feeling torn.
However, soon, she wouldn’t feel conflicted anymore; she lost the strength to grip the dragon horn tightly.
With a splash, she fell back into the water.
“Glub glub…”
Here it comes, the classic underwater kiss often seen in idol dramas.
Although it was cliched.
For Naya, it was very effective.
……
After playing in the water for half an hour in the bathroom, Naya’s cheeks were flushed as she walked out.
“You’ve had enough bread, why do you want to eat peaches too? After the peaches, that should be it! And you’ve eaten so many strawberries!”
Naya covered her neck.
Turning her head, she glared at Iris, who was following her.
Iris, however, blinked innocently with big eyes.
“Aren’t you going to see Leo later?”
“Exactly because I’m going to see Leo later that you shouldn’t do this!”
The double meaning of “Do this.”
Iris stared straight at Naya and spoke earnestly.
“I want him to know that you are mine. I want to prove to everyone who knows you that you are mine, to everyone you have been close to that you already belong to me.”
“I don’t like man, there’s no romantic bond with Leo. What are you even fussing about?”
Naya’s pouting lips gradually calmed down.
The anger in her heart also lessened a bit.
In fact, she felt a bit happy about Iris’s inexplicable jealousy.
