Blood in the rose thistles

Chapter 29

The sun was already set when the monster stopped swirling, making the team waiting in the Golden Turtle Ship immediately sail the ship towards the island that they could see from afar.

When they arrived, there was no sign of Cale and Alexina until they heard some shouting from the forest.

"Idiot! Run!"

"I hate this! I should bring them with me! Choi Han can kill this, and Beacrox will cook it for me."

"Cale-nim." Choi Han immediately ran when he heard Cal shouting and calling his name.

Choi Han arrived at the scene of something he didn't expect. The young master Cale that they see, who looked like a nobleman, now looks like he suffered a lot. Full of dirt, leaves, and even branches, the same goes with his wife. They are running away from a boar.

"Cale-nim!!"

"Weak human!" 

"You're here! Now, take care of that." Cale immediately ran away from them and got out of the forest with Alexina in tow.

The moment they came back from the shore. Both of their legs gave, making them trip and roll down. No one knows this, but Alexina doesn't really like exercising. She thinks that taking care of her child is already an exercise. She lifts them; she does some squats when she follows the trail of mess that her son left to pick it up.

"Oww.." Alexina groaned when her rolling was stopped by something.

"Are you done playing?" In an instant, Alexina sat up and looked innocently at the two dragons glaring at her.

"I'm not playing. Who said I was playing? Cale?" Alexina asks innocently to the dragons.

"You..." 

"Rosaria. Give that child some time to process everything. Look at her. She's so messy. Come here, child. Let me clean you up." Aquaria-nim spoke with a sweet voice that made Alexina suspicious. She gathered her strength and ran away.

"You're going to throw me in the water, don't you?" You did that to me last time." And there you have it; Cale just watches as Alexina runs for her life while one ancient dragon finds a stick from somewhere and is chasing her down while another ancient dragon is trying to catch her. Cale can't move right now as he is surrounded by experts looking at him, especially the butler, who is opening a high-grade potion.

"Young master, please drink this potion that Ron served you." Ron, with a viscous smile, handed the drink to Cale. Making Cale gulp it in one drink

"Give her some things." Cale murmured before he passed out. Ron easily catches the puppy.

"The potion with some sleeping side effects works, Eruhaben-nim." Rosalyn, who made this potion with the instructions of Eruhaben, looks satisfied.

"Weak human!!! We're back!! The boar is ready to cook!"

"I don't want to." Cale heard the same phase coming from his wife. He didn't mind it, but it looks like his wife has another plan.

"I want to sleep more. I didn't get enough sleep. I'm so tired." Alexina complained, and Cale can feel that she's trying to move closer. Cale, who's also sleepy, positions himself so that Alexina can fit. He put his arms around her and pulled her closer. Sleepy Cale signaled with his hands for whoever was disturbing their sleep to go out. Sleep is the most important thing right now.

"I'll let you sleep and not go into a coma!" Alexina and Cale yelped at the same time when someone pulled the mattress off the bed.

"Who the fu--ah?" Hello." Alexina angrily snapped but immediately backed down when she saw who was the culprit.

"Don't say hello, me child. Both of you have been sleeping for 40 hours since we rescued you." Rosaria-nim angrily said to the couple, who looked like they wanted to go back to sleep.

"Mother!! Father!! Finally, you're awake! The door opened with a bang, and Alaric and Ambrose ran towards their mother, whose arms were already spread. They gave her a hug and stayed there.

"Clean yourself up and go back to reality. I can only wait for two hours. If I didn't see you then, you know what happened." Rosaria-Nim threatens them, making Alexina shiver.

"Now, go to your father. I need to get ready." Alexina passes the children to their father, who is leaning on the bed and is about to go to sleep.

"Good afternoon, father." Alaric greeted Cale when he was put down by her mother.

"Good afternoon. Did you eat already?" a sleepy Cale asks them.

"Yeah, we already did, and then we had this sparring match against each other, but the result was a draw." Alaric started sharing their days.

"What draw? It's clearly my win." Ambrose replied, and Alaric snapped at him, and the second match began.
