After the fox girl died, Brock was mad and
wanted a new bride.
But everyone heard how brutal he was. No one
wanted to marry him.
Brock walked straight to Bethany.
Bethany was living happily with Alistair. When Brock stared at her, she hid behind Alistair.
Bethany and Alistair weren’t married in the
traditional sense, so they couldn’t compete.
I stood in front of her.
“Bethany, come with me.”
Brock reached for her, but I blocked him.

He was about to get angry, but he saw how
healthy and beautiful I had become. He
changed his mind. “If Bethany won’t come with
me, you can.”
I slapped him.
Everyone gasped. Brock’s face darkened. He
sent me flying. I crashed to the ground.
I could have dodged that.
But I didn’t.
Jasper walked in and saw me on the ground,
groaning in pain.
He rushed to me, pushing Brock aside and
lifting me up.
“Cloud, what-‘
Everyone stared.

A pool of blood was spreading beneath me.
The healers confirmed that I was pregnant.

“How is this possible? The eagle clan is cursed.
How is his wife pregnant?”
Jasper stared at me in disbelief, with
uncontainable excitement.
“Cloud, when did this happen?”
“What, the child probably is an accident,”
Corbin sneered. “Can’t you see what’s so
obvious?”
“Shut up!”
Jasper’s face darkened. He scooped me up and
carried me home.
I looked at him, confused.
“Aren’t you curious why I’m suddenly
pregnant?”
Didn’t you suspect I was cheating?
Jasper took my hand, his eyes full of trust.
“I believe you.”
“Bunnies are fertile. You must be gifted to have
our child.”
My eyes welled up.
No one had ever been genuinely kind to me
before. Even Corbin’s initial affection had been
fake.
Jasper was willing to trust me completely.
But not everyone believed me.

I was pregnant, but everyone was guessing who the real father was.
“That bunny looks innocent, but she’s a slut.”
“I knew it. The eagle clan can’t have kids, and they probably are a disaster in bed. She was
bound to cheat.”
“No wonder the eagle clan leader is okay with being cuckolded. He must feel guilty!”

Everyone looked down on me. Some eagle clan
members even snuck into the palace to yell at
- me.
The elders heard about it.
Since the last beast king died, a new one
hadn’t been chosen. Everything was handled by

The elders ordered Jasper to execute me.
“This woman is a disgrace to the beast clan.
She must be burned at the stake as an
example!”
Jasper, who usually avoided conflict, refused.
“Cloud is my wife. That’s my child in her belly. I
won’t kill my wife and child!”
Alistair and Bethany rushed over.
“Sister, I’m not as skilled as my brother, but I
have good luck. We’ll keep you safe.”
I thought they were just comforting me.
Soon, Corbin’s snake bride had her baby.
