"I don't know if I should say this to you…."

"It's okay, just say it." Tang Shaoyang smiled.

Ava nodded, "It just does not feel right to hide it from you either. I am pregnant with your child." The former Elven Queen looked at Tang Shaoyang's expression. She wanted to see his reaction.

Tang Shaoyang went from shock to happiness, then doubtful, "Is it my children or…."

He did not finish his words as Ava immediately replied, "It's your child! I never did it again with my husband ever since we did it for the first time. There's no way my husband can satisfy me after being with you."

Tang Shaoyang nodded his head as he recollected what happened between him and Ava in Lukan. They went crazy after that day. Even though Ava was a few hundred years old, she still looked like someone in her late thirties. She still had the vigor, the body was excellent, and her charm was irresistible even though she had three children with her current husband. He lost count of how many times they did it on Lukan.

"I don't mean to doubt you. It just surprised me more than you expect my children first than my first wife," He tried to explain his doubt to Ava. It was understandable to doubt it from his point of view because Zhang Mengyao and Kang Xue were not able to conceive his child.

Ava nodded understandingly, "I think the main reason is because of my rank. My power is closest to you compared to your other wives, except for my sister, Aleesa. I think that's the reason why I am able to bear your child, Your Majesty."

Tang Shaoyang nodded understandingly as it made sense. He had come up with many theories why her women were not able to bear his child, and what Ava said was one of them. Now, it had been proved by Ava, so it was most likely the case.

"How old?"

"Three weeks. I realized it earlier, but I am afraid to tell you. I am afraid that you will throw away the child…." Ava's voice quietened down.

"You realized earlier; how?" Tang Shaoyang was more surprised at how she realized it earlier than her concern.

"I mean, a new life slowly forming in my womb. How could I not realize it?" Ava responded flatly as it was something obvious.

That made sense because she had a high sense. Tang Shaoyang nodded his head, "Why would I throw away my children? In fact, I am very happy right now, but there's a troublesome problem. I want you and our child to be recognized by my people, but there's an issue with your status."

Ava had a husband, and her husband was not just a random person with a random status. Her husband was the former Elven King, and if he announced Ava expected his child, there would be a riot from the Elven Kingdom. On top of that, he would lose one of the strongest subordinates, Revalor, the Legendary Rank. Not just that, he would create unrest within his people. They would be afraid that their wives would be taken by him, the fear that would be embedded into their hearts forever. That was not a good thing, even though he could suppress them with his power.

"I understand your difficulty. I am not asking you to take me as your legal wife. I am satisfied with our relationship as of now. I just want you to recognize the child as yours, no more than," Ava smiled.

Tang Shaoyang kissed her forehead, "I am sorry. I…."

"Don't be sorry. I choose to take this path myself. I can just hide this from you and kill the child, but I choose this path myself. I have fallen for you," The former Elven Queen confessed.

"I know you want to be lovey-dovey, but I am here too, you know," Jasmine could no longer bear it and protested, "I am jealous." Her interruption diffused the atmosphere.

Ava smiled, "I have been unfair to my husband, but I already have a plan for him."

"Wait, don't kill him." Tang Shaoyang thought Ava wanted to kill her current husband when she said. He did not want her to bear the guilt of killing her husband. There was no way he would let that happen to her.

Ava was shocked for a moment before she realized Tang Shaoyang misunderstood him. Her words could be interpreted that way, "I don't plan to kill my husband, but he deserves a better woman than myself." She had her plan for her husband.

"I see," Ava did not tell him what her plan was, so he did not ask, "But are you okay? Is the child okay?" Tang Shaoyang got worried as he was afraid that the child was harmed as they had gone crazy earlier. He caressed Ava's belly, trying to feel the thing inside her stomach.

"I think we will be fine for five months," Ava explained.

Tang Shaoyang did not know anything since this was his first experience. However, Ava had given birth to three children, so she should know more things than him. He nodded in response.

*** ***

Ava left the secret hide-out alone. She was in the main— Capital of the Tang Empire instead of the Elven Kingdom's city. Usually, she would hurry back to Elven's new home, but this time, she headed to Tarrior Housing. The housing area was meant for the people who joined Tarrior, and her husband got one even though he was just a war slave, and her second son got one too. The father and the son lived separately.

She went roof after roof before she stopped, staring at the house with the number 90. All the houses had the same exterior, and the number was the only way to differentiate the houses. She stared intently at the window on the second floor where the main bedroom was. Even though the window was covered by a curtain, her sharp eyes could see the silhouette beyond the curtain. Not just the silhouette, she could hear the voice if she focused enough.

Through the tiny gaps in the window, she could hear a woman's moan and also a man's breathing. She saw the man on the bed having sex with the woman on the bed. Her golden eyes shone, and she managed to see through the curtain. The man was an elf, and the woman was a young female human. That was right, the man was her husband, the one who lived in no. 90 was Revalor.

"I hope you find your new happiness, Dear," She muttered.
