Shut Up Dragon! I Don't Want To Have Children With You Anymore

[🎉 Shoutout to Tiago, Salty004, Jeff and jojoisthebest for joining patreon. Thank you very much.🤗]

However, the birthday star had not yet returned.

Leon originally planned to call Luna along, thinking of giving the mother and daughter a surprise, which could also make up for the regret from last year when Rossweise's daughter didn't get to see her father awake on her birthday.

But it was already so late, and Luna had long since fallen asleep.

Noah had also returned to St. Heath Academy yesterday morning.

By the time Luna woke up tomorrow, he could bounce over to his daughter and say,"Do you know, my dear baby, Daddy made it to Mommy's birthday this year~"

Luna would surely be very happy as well.

But the problem was:

What about tonight?

One of the main reasons Leon agreed to let Rossweise organize her birthday celebration was because she had mentioned their daughters.

But now, one was at school, the other was asleep, making it seem like he had arranged this birthday surprise solely for Rossweise.

Leon sat on the sofa in Rossweise's room, sniffled, and muttered,"Cunning mother dragon, I definitely won't celebrate your birthday next year!"

This year, he would just make do.

Yeah, just make do.

At that moment, Rossweise was holding several gift boxes while heading to her room.

Although dragons only celebrate their birthdays once every ten years after reaching adulthood, inviting friends and family to a banquet,

This didn't mean they wouldn't receive small tokens of goodwill on their actual birthdays.

Among the gifts Rossweise was holding, there were ones from her sister Isa, the head maid Anna, and some female classmates she had gotten along well with during school years ago.

She had worked overtime tonight, handling some important affairs, which was why she had returned so late.

She originally wanted to check on her daughter, but at this hour, Luna was usually asleep, so Rossweise had to give up on the idea.

Moreover…

Throughout the entire day, aside from seeing Leon at the dinner table, Rossweise hadn't seen him at all.

Was he hiding because the birthday didn't go as planned?

Rossweise shook her head, not bothering to guess. Anyway, the night seemed like it would end just like this.

Nothing special.

She arrived at her bedroom door and was about to open it when she noticed that it was ajar.

Through the gap, she saw that the lights inside were off.

Holding her gifts in both hands, Rossweise blinked, pondered for a moment, then turned sideways and gently pushed the door open with her shoulder,"Leon, are you in my roo—"

BOOM~

As soon as she stepped in, the lights suddenly turned on. Immediately following was a muffled sound, and a few streamers slowly drifted down onto Rossweise's silver hair.

The sudden noise startled Rossweise slightly, and before she could react, someone covered her eyes from behind.

It was Leon.

She was very familiar with the feeling of this man's hands touching her.

Besides, in the entire Silver Dragon Sanctuary, no one but him would dare to break into her room and cover her eyes.

'Damn it, since when did a prisoner have this kind of privilege?'

'Oh well, then again, it isn't like captives usually got to celebrate their captor's birthday.'

Thinking of this, Rossweise felt slightly better.

"Happy birthday, Mother Dragon!",came the familiar voice from behind.

Rossweise didn't struggle, just stood still, quietly holding her gifts.

'Hah, damn bastard, so he actually went and threw me a birthday surprise in secret?'

After a brief moment of joy, Rossweise teased,"Maybe if you replaced 'Mother Dragon' with my name, it would sound better?"

"Next time, for sure."

Rossweise chuckled,"So, covering my eyes and saying 'happy birthday' is a human birthday custom?"

Leon thought for a moment,"Not exactly. Now, walk slowly to the living room—there's another surprise waiting for you."

Rossweise shrugged and began stepping forward.

Leon stood beside her, slightly behind, watching her steps from above.

"Lift your foot higher, there's a step at the entrance."

"Mm."

The couple walked one after the other, slowly making their way into the living room.

Rossweise sniffed the air—there was a scent of burning candles.

The queen was puzzled,'Lighting candles for a birthday? Is that also a human custom?'

Just as she was about to ask, she caught another faint scent mixed in—

"Buttercream?"

'Buttercream.'

'Damn!'

The moment she thought of buttercream, Rossweise immediately felt uneasy.

The traumatic memories of being overwhelmed by cream puffs during the school sports festival surfaced vividly, making her want to flee at the mere scent of it.

"I know what you're thinking, but it's not that."

Leon still had her eyes covered,"Alright, are you ready? I'm letting go now."

"Mm.",She was already prepared—if she saw a pile of cream puffs, she would smash them onto Leon's face.

The next moment, the hands over her eyes slowly lifted away.

Rossweise took a moment to adjust to the room's lighting, then looked down—

In the center of the living room was a gigantic cake.

This cake was at least as big as a coffee table, no wonder the buttercream smell was so strong.

It was decorated with small slices of fruit, mostly oranges, with strawberries and mangoes as accents.

On top of the cake, there was even a message written in fruit jam:

[Happy Birthday, Rossweise]

Looking at the spectacle before her, Rossweise couldn't help but be slightly amazed.

She had seen plenty of cakes, and many birthday wishes.

But combining the two and making the cake this enormous? That was a first for her.

Rossweise placed her gifts aside and asked,"Do humans always eat cake on birthdays?"

"Mm, it's sort of a tradition.",Leon said.

Rossweise nodded thoughtfully. "Are they always this big?"

"No, not always. That's what I meant when I said that while birthdays follow old traditions, the details can vary."

"I only see a cake larger than my coffee table—what details are you talking about?"

"The candles. Count them—there are exactly 218, matching your age."

There were indeed a lot of candles, but Rossweise didn't actually count them.

No wonder Leon needed such a big cake—there was no way to fit over 200 candles on a small one.

She stepped closer, gazing at the enormous cake. The candlelight reflected in her silver eyes.

Though she didn't quite understand why humans celebrated birthdays like this, the novelty of it pleased her.

Leon had gone through the trouble of arranging all this in just a few days without letting anything slip.

No wonder he was the strongest dragon slayer—he even managed to keep his movements hidden so well.

Even Rossweise had thought he was trying to brush past her birthday.

Rossweise extended a slender finger, lightly scraped some cream from the cake, and brought it to her lips.

It was sweet, but not cloying.

Far superior to cream puffs.

Sweetness could lift one's mood. Rossweise smiled and turned, rarely offering praise,"Not bad. Human birthdays… are quite interesting."

"It's not over yet.",Leon said.

Rossweise's eyes lit up,"There's more?"

For some reason, she was actually curious to see what else humans had up their sleeves.

Leon smirked mischievously, pointing to the candles on the cake,"Blow them out, then make a wish."

Rossweise narrowed her eyes, evaluating him. The fleeting joy and gratitude she had just felt vanished.

Damn bastard. Knew he wouldn't just behave.

Fine, she'd play along—but if he wanted to mess with her, she wouldn't let him off easy either.

She grabbed Leon,"You're blowing with me."

The couple took a deep breath together and blew—until they were both gasping for air.

Then, Rossweise clasped her hands, closed her eyes, and said,"I wish—my prisoner will never escape."
