Baby Contract: Forced Deal With A Dragon

Lu Meili frowned as she watched as her metal cage shake. It loudly sounded and just as she expected, a part of the cage would be turned into the transparent glass that allowed the person on the other side to see and talk to her.

"Tsk. How could she be like this? This is unacceptable." Lu Meili heard someone else said. 

The glass was still unclear, and before Lu Meili could even see who had spoken unhappily about her, she already knows that she was not wanted because of the tone of their voices. 

'I don't care,' She thought amusedly with a smile on her face. There were things that she needed to worry about and bothering with beings that won't show any signs of help her was not worth it. 

Lu Meili was currently sitting on lotus position on the dirty floor of her cage. She was still on her u.n.d.e.r.w.e.a.r and the hanging top since no one bothered to give her new clothes to wear. If not because of magic, she would probably still wet. 

'What if they arrived and I'm like this?' Lu Meili thought to herself as she thinks of her martial sisters. She was looking forward to how they would react once they saw her in the current position as it was so different compared to her usual attire in the ship. 

The message she had sent was not much as the only thing that she wanted them to do was visit Shou Planet, Dragon country. They just have to figure that out themselves. 

For now, Lu Meili would be delighted to entertain her visitors that could already see her. There might be a monitor outside her cage for them to do so. 

It did not take long before the metal completely turned into a clear transparent glass. 

Lu Meili saw a group of beings that were looking at her with disgust unsurprisingly. Coming from beings that have savage beasts as their alter ego that could be hypocritical. 

Since dragon shifters were known to age slow, Lu Meili could not determine or guess the age of her visitors. 

There were those wearing the familiar-looking uniform of the dragon country soldiers, the others were wearing a long white robe, layered with blue. Lu Meili knew the uniform as elders of the Dragon Council.

Then Lu Meili's gaze shifted to the women and her eyes immediately narrowed. 

One of them was someone she had seen earlier. She remembers the woman being addressed as 'Lady Han' who demanded to see Long Cheng as well as she has the right to do so. 

Han Lu was glaring at her dangerously and Lu Meili responded by smiling brightly. 

"Father! Just look at her! Prince Cheng was surely hexed with a love potion! There was no way he would want a woman like this!" Han Lu exclaimed furiously. 

With a raised brow, "Woman like this?" Lu Meili laughed mockingly, "Then If he fell for a woman like you, then it is the end of this planet!" She declared loudly. It was not normal for her to respond to such a petty statement. 

There was no need for a love potion and it could be proven eventually, but Lu Meili felt unhappy for Han Lu to point it out in the first place. 

She could sense a strange feeling in her being that wanted to crush the woman for interacting with Long Cheng more than necessary. This feeling started surfacing from the time Long Cheng saved Lou Mary from the storm of thunders earlier. 

If she was not focusing on saving him, Lu Meili could have done something against Lou Mary by accident. 

Lu Meili could imagine herself, poking fun with Han Lu using a sword while the female shifter was tied up on a tree with bullet ants. 

Why? It was because of the annoying and unfamiliar feeling called jealousy. 

It a feeling that Lu Meili's master describes a lot before. The feeling that would make anyone lose rationality if uncontrolled as well a sign of weakness as it only proves that someone could take advantage of you. 

It could not be helped through since her red pendant was not with her. Remembering that, Lu Meili wondered what other annoying emotions would surface within her eventually. 

"Daughter mine, stop." The man next to Han Lu had spoken that cut off Lu Meili's thoughts. 

The way Han Lu's father speaks was not the same as the previous people who commented against Lu Meili with disgust. He spoke, stood and acts like a respectable, true wise noble. Basing on his attire, he was also an elder.  

Despite that, Lu Meili postured stiffened with alarm. The hairs on her nape tingled and she had the foreboding feeling of getting away from the man. 'He is dangerous…' She thought to herself. 

If the magic was not limited to her area and there was no cage separating them, Lu Meili would have no problem sensing the type of magic within the man despite being a dragon shifter himself as well. 

"But fath-" Han Lu had pursed her lips the man give her a meaningful stare that looked like a warning. 

The man then turned his attention to Lu Meili and greeted, "I am Han Ying, the third elder of the Dragon Council. You will be treated fairly just like any other prisoners even if you are the claimed mate of one of our royal princes, or regardless of what planet you came from," He said with indifference. 

Lu Meili tilted her head, "So? What do I do from here on to get out of here?" She asked sounding curious. For her, it did not make sense for the elders to visit to just introduce themselves. 

Someone laughed sarcastically before speaking, "Get out? You were accused of killing one of our kind and there's a witness to prove that. All you need to do is plead guilty to keep your head connected to your neck."
