Chương 110: Delicate

Lazarus continued, "This is what I have read about dragons. They will lay eggs in a place where no one can find them. Dragons don't lay eggs so easily. Birth amongst them is rare. And the eggs hatch only when the hatchling senses his or her rider is nearby. Until then they remain hidden from the world." 

"Goddess!" She took a deep breath. "Will I be able to see her eggs?" 

"I am afraid, Emma, but dragon mothers are too protective about their babies." 

Suddenly, a heavy knock on the door disturbed them. Lazarus growled, hating the disturbance. Emma placed her hand on his and then her finger on her lips. He gritted his teeth and got up to open the door. The guards had parted their spears for Gladys. 

"Lazarus!" Gladys said with a glint in her eyes. "When did you come?" she asked, trying to peep inside. "We've been worried. Where is Emma?"

He gave a long stare to Gladys and then stepped aside. "She is inside, healing from her injuries."
