Chương 45: The power of light, no, not the torchlight

"Move back in here?" Zi Mei repeated his suggestion. She disengaged from him and stood apart.

She had just regained her independence and freedom. It was lonely living alone and sometimes scary. Earlier today was scary. Still, she was independent. She was free. She could do whatever she wanted, go anywhere she wanted. She was living like a carefree college student. For once in her life, she was leading as normal a life as possible, except for the part of being a baby making slave to a few thousand year old dragon. She doesn't have to eke out a living and worry about loansharks or her father stealing all her hard-earned money to gamble it all away.

Now, she will have to move back to being his baby making slave. Granted, she has been given several months' reprieve from making babies to heal from the miscarriage. She didn't want this. Not just yet.
