Midlife Witchery 09.0 - Magical Delivery

Ancient traps, Fae beasts, and a lava chamber are the hurdles I must overcome to reach the dragon equivalent of a maternity ward. No biggie, right? Solving one crisis after another with my coven left me battered me to a pulp at times, but it prepared me for my most difficult journey yet: returning to Eidothea to save my child’s life. Apparently, most beings can’t successfully carry a dragon’s baby unless they undergo trials and tribulations to reach the lava tunnels in a forbidden mountain in the Fae realm. I know I will make it, because I have a much bigger issue to deal with. Argies’s overprotective brother, who just so happens to be my new king, is insistent on having things his way. Argies and I have barely made it past his discovery of my pregnancy, and now his brother thinks he can force me to stay in his realm. I’ve outsmarted a controlling ex, mastered the language of manipulation, and I’m one-third of the Backside of Forty. And did I mention I’m about to give birth to a dragon? King or not, he’s got to learn that I’m not someone to be messed with.
