~Three Days later~
~Layla's POV~
It's been three days since I left the mansion. I miss everyone, but I can't go back yet. I have to stay away another nine months so I can help the dragon for the first two months of my child's life after I give birth to the child. The dragon's name is Glacia, and she's an ice dragon. She hates fire but has agreed to only use it for me and my child. She's very kind to humans as long as they don't attack her with fire or some other weapon. Some poor souled man did that the day I arrived. He was sent flying with a flick of Glacia's claw, and was knocked unconscious. He awoke to a broken left wrist, and a fractured right ankle. I guess he shouldn't have instigated a fight with a dragon for heaven's sake. " Layla. Layla!" Glacia yelled, snapping me out of my thoughts. "What?" I responded obviously annoyed. "Stop your daydreaming and help me with the fire. You're the one that needs it." She hissed, narrowing her eyes at me. "Fine, I'll help since its true that I'm the only one who needs it." I stated calmly and nonchalantly that made her scoff at me. I got up and went looking for wood.
I came back a few minutes later with Capricorn helping me carry extra firewood since I was already carrying more than I had to. "Hey, Capricorn? Can I ask you something? And I want a truthful answer." I asked calmly. "Of course you can Layla-sama. I'll answer any question you ask with my most truthful answer." He responded. "Do you think Jude will find out about me having the second child?" I asked as calm as I could possibly be.'I have a feeling I already know the answer to this question...' I thought as I set the extra firewood in a pile. "Layla-sama, I don't doubt that he'll be suspicious. He'll look into it in the future, but not while you're around. He may only look into it when Lucy is a teenager. After all, she's only one and a half right now. Layla-sama, I can tell that you have an illness that can kill you not long after the birth... Are you really sure that you wanna give birth to the child Layla-sama?" He asked, his voice laced with concern and sadness. "Yes, I'm sure Capricorn. This is the second child I'm able to conceive before I die, so there is no possible way that I'm going to avoid giving birth to a child. I want my kids to do whatever makes them happy. Other than treating their spirits like tools or causing harm to others for their own enjoyment. I want them to have separate ways of growing up so only one will have to grow up as rich and the other will grow up happy. I have faith that the stars will make them cross paths when they're older." I explained with a soft tone in my voice. "Layla-sama... I never thought of the idea of that because I just didn't think that you would survive it." Capricorn said with a sad look in his eyes as he looks away from me. "Hey Capricorn? Can I ask you for one last contract for after I die?" I asked with tears starting to form in my eyes. "Of course, Layla-sama." He answered. "Can you protect my family?" I asked, trying to keep my voice calm. "Yes Layla-sama... I will keep your family safe after you die." He replied sadly. "Thank you Capricorn." I said calmly.
~Nine Months Later~
It has been two months since I gave birth to a healthy baby girl, and it's almost time for me to go back to the mansion. I decided to name the baby girl Arsheena and she has pitch black hair with ice blue eyes since Glacia put the lacrima in her a few hours after she was born. Glacia also told me that Arsheena will have two types of magic because before the lacrima she had celestial magic now she also has slayer magic. I am extremely happy I decided to leave my second daughter with a dragon because she will become strong here. I already have my stuff packed and in the celestial world and now I'm just standing over my daughter telling her goodbye because I'll never see her again. I lean down and kiss her forehead before leaving back to the mansion. I only have about three months left of my life, so I better spend it with Lucy and Jude.
