Emma cradled the two eggs in her arms. The moment she felt their warmth, she knew she had to find Lucien.

She needed to tell him right away.

Just before she left, Kieran had pulled her aside. “I masked your ability again. It’ll register as Rank 7 now.”

Whether she chose to tell Lucien and the others was entirely her call.

Emma nodded while clutching the eggs. “Got it.”

Kieran escorted her out without delay.

As soon as she stepped out of his room, his demeanor flipped back to sweet and innocent.

?

He took her hand, blushed, and whispered, “Ms. Tibarn, don’t forget to come find me tomorrow. Try guessing the right answer. Every correct guess earns a prize!”

He really knew how to sell it.

Emma had never noticed it before. Not even once. “Do not worry. I won’t stop until I’ve uncovered every secret you’ve got.”

She was going to tear him apart, piece by piece.

Kieran’s eyes sparkled with amusement. “You’re so smart, Ms. Tibarn. I’m sure it won’t take long before I’m stripped clean.”

That angelic face was spewing absolute filth.

Well played, merman.

Emma had just turned to go find Lucien when she saw him walking down the stairs.

“Lucien!”

She lit up and pointed at the grass–lined basket in her arms.

“Come here! Our babies are out!”

Babies?

Lucien’s eyes narrowed the second he saw the basket.

Two red–and–gold eggs sat quietly inside, tucked into the soft nest.

Golden patterns shimmered across their shells. Only the most gifted Phoenix hatchlings were born with/4

those.

His babies had come?

Already?

Lucien froze for a moment, then hurried toward her.

“These are ours?”

Emma grinned. “Of course! And there are two! Aren’t you excited?”

She shoved the basket right into his arms.

“Go on. Hold them!”

He stood there stunned, the eggs settled in his arms. He could barely react.

Were they really his?

?

“But I thought you weren’t due for another two weeks.”

Why now?

Why so sudden?

Emma explained, “It was Kieran. He used a special bonding ritual from the Merfolk. While we were bonding, some of the energy he used to help me rank up got absorbed by the babies. That’s what brought them out early.”

She didn’t blame Lucien for being in shock. She had been just as confused when she first saw them.

Lucien turned straight to Kieran.

Kieran lowered his head, still looking like a perfect little angel. “Lucien, I didn’t expect them to absorb my energy, but don’t worry. My energy’s gentle. It only helps. It doesn’t harm.”

He never would’ve used a bonding technique like that while she was pregnant if he hadn’t been absolutely

sure it was safe.

He only did it because he knew it wouldn’t hurt her or the babies.

“As long as they’re okay. As long as Emma’s okay, that’s what matters.”

Lucien looked back at her.

“You just gave birth. Let me take you back so you can rest.”

“I’m fine. I feel incredible right now.”

She had never felt so clear–headed. So alive.

Emma held his hand and looked down at the two eggs in the nest.

“When will they hatch?”

“What’ll they look like after that?

“Will they be little puffballs like you were?”

Lucien paused.

His mouth twitched.

Was she calling him fluffy?

“Emma, newborn Phoenixes have puffed–up feathers. That doesn’t mean they’re fat.”

Why would she think he looked like a chubby chick?

That image was not flattering.

“I’m still taking you to lie down.”

Emma wasn’t even tired.

She felt electric.

“But I want to see you incubate them.”

Lucien said nothing.
