Dragon King's Harem Chapter 300. Is It Just For The Sake Of Bearing My Child?
With a long exhale, I let go of the tension coiled inside me. The urge to spread my wings and take off over the Healer Tribe’s stunning cityscape was strong. But I knew better. A flashy display of flight wasn’t just impolite—it could stir up trouble I didn’t need right now.
Instead, I stayed perched on the stone fence of my balcony, taking in the view. The city was like something out of a dream, a perfect mix of magic and nature.
Lifting the goblet to my lips, I sipped the golden drink, savoring its subtle sweetness while my thoughts drifted to the differences between this place and Dragon Cross City.
A movement below caught my attention. I glanced down at the palace courtyard, where a group of female elves stood. When they noticed me looking, they quickly lowered their heads in a respectful gesture.
I smirked, nodding back politely. As they turned to leave, their silvery laughter floated up. Their chatter was lively, punctuated by bursts of giggles, and I found it oddly charming.
Taking another sip of my drink, I couldn’t help but glance back at them as they walked away. Something about their youthful energy and camaraderie reminded me of high school. It was strange to think about, but their behavior had that same playful, gossipy vibe. For a second, I felt like the popular guy everyone wanted to talk about.
“What’s got you so interested, Your Majesty?” Evelina’s voice came from behind me. She stepped up to my side, curious about what had caught my attention.
“Some female elves,” I said casually, still watching the group below. “They’ve been checking me out.”
Her eyebrows shot up. “Female elves?” She followed my gaze to the courtyard, quickly spotting the group of noblewomen.
“Oh,” she said, recognition lighting up her face. “They’re the dukes’ daughters.”
I turned to her, curious. “Are they your friends?"
She smiled, her eyes soft with nostalgia. “Yes, we used to play together when we were younger. I let them know I was coming, and they showed up right away,” she explained.
I raised an eyebrow, a teasing grin creeping onto my face. “To see you? Or to see me?” I asked, my tone light but playful. It was odd they’d chosen the courtyard instead of the parlor room on the opposite side of the palace.
Evelina’s cheeks flushed, and she stammered slightly. “They… wanted to see you,” she admitted. “I thought about introducing you to them, but my father said you were resting. So, I figured they could just get a quick look at you from the yard.”
I chuckled, amused by the effort they’d gone through. “Well, it looks like their mission was a success.”
Turning to Evelina with a mischievous glint in my eye, I asked, “Aren’t you worried I might take a liking to one of them and bring her back to Dragon Cross City?”
Evelina pressed her lips together, her expression thoughtful. “You’re the king, Argod,” she said softly. “If that’s what you wanted, I couldn’t stop you.”
Her answer only made me more curious. “But if you could refuse, would you?”
She hesitated, then shook her head. “Of course, I want you all to myself,” she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper. “But you’re a king. You need an heir. What if I can’t give you one? Having more wives would increase your chances.”
Her hand moved to rest gently on her stomach, and she sighed. “Still,” she added, her voice tinged with both hope and determination, “I do want to be the one to bear your child.”
I studied her, her words lingering in my mind. “But is it just about giving me an heir?” I asked, leaning closer. “Don’t you want me for yourself? All of me?”
