Heart of Amore

Chapter eight: The torture of Yuelaing-Hua

A dark blue-haired dragon was chained up to the wall, her sparkling about eyes filled after the repeated violations and torments her capture had given her, A year since she's seen the surface... The moon dragon groaned as she felt the babies kick her stomach, she was roused out of her sleep. This was Yuelaing-Hua, the young dragon was the younger daughter of Long Huo and his wife, she looked tired and weak as if her body was about to give out any second.

She had to stay alive for her children... Her two little ones who were still inside of her.

Then he walked in... The bastard that caused her all of this suffering Astraeus.

"You know what? This is taking to long.." The star titan grew impatient for the children to be born.

"Patience is key, Astraeus... Patience is always key." Hera the former queen of the Gods walked in a sick smile on her beautiful face.

"Ugh! I know... But is there no way to speed this up?"

"There is, but it is at the cost of the mother." Hera sighed.

"Ugh, just do it! I am impatient."

"Very well." The woman's eyes gleamed viciously as if she was gazing at one of her husbands love child's or other women. Her black ebony hair flew around her:

"Paidia gennisis!"

Yuelaing felt that something being ripped out of her, and the last thing that she could hear were two babies cries. She lost consciousness soon after.

Moments later she woke up and she was no longer chained she was on a bed with two children in her arms, one a blue to the purple-haired babe with golden stardust on her hair, and the other a pink-haired little cutie with a heart-shaped birthmark on her neck. The blue to purple one looked like a bubbly shinny bundle of literal joy and laughter, the other seemed an incarnation of adorableness and Yuelaing smiled she wanted to speak but couldn't, for some reason her mouth couldn't utter words.

It seemed she had become mute...

"So... They got you too?" She looked and saw a firey Goddess who was chained up but not having to the wall.

Yuelaing-Hua cradled the two infants to her chest, but the woman didn't even wince seeing the lunar dragons reaction, instead, she sighed:

"My name is Hestia... I was captured a few days ago... How are you? I patched you up as best as I could... But I was never really the best at healing..." The Goddess of the hearth smiled warmly as she put a comforting hand on the young dragon.

"I...I... Am...Yu-" She couldn't even utter a single sentence and that frustrated her, why?!

"Here." Hestia sighed pulling out a piece of parchment, "Write that down.  In any language, you chose I will be able to understand."

Yuelaing took in and wrote:

My name is Yuelaing Long.

"Okay, that's a start, who are those two?" She pointed to the little dragons in her arms. Yuelaing sighed for a while, she hadn't really thought out any names, but then she smiled and wrote:

The star one is Xinghua and the pink one is Aihua.

"Nice names..." Hestia smiled, "Don't worry I have a tracer on me, my niece Athena will be here in a while to rescue us. Just wait and stay patient."

Yuelaing couldn't believe her luck, she was going to be free!
