Gangster Hybrid

Draven, completely spent but energized by the fight, thought, Hell yeah, I'm so tired. He turn walking away First, I have to go get something to eat.

His father's smile widened. "Alright, brat. A promise is a promise. Ready to hear the news?"

Hmm, news? What news?

A fleeting memory surfaced—his father mentioning some good news after their spar.

Ooh, now I remember.

"So, what's the good news?" Draven asked.

His father's smile softened. "Mom is pregnant."

Draven's eyes widened in surprise.

"You're soon going to be a big brother," his father added.

Me? A big brother? The words echoed in his mind. I'm going to be a big brother!

Lyriana, standing beside Aldric, overheard and thought, Hmm, the Queen is expecting.

A soft smile slowly spread across Draven's face.

"I'm going to be having a sibling. I wonder if it's going to be a girl or a boy. I always wanted to have a baby sis."

His father chuckled. "Actually, there are two of them. Twins."

Draven's grin widened, his eyes sparkling. "Twins?! That's even better! I might have two baby sisters instead of one!"

Walking closer, his father placed a firm hand on Draven's shoulder and looked him in the eyes.

"That means you've got an important job now. As their big brother, you have to take care of them—watch over them, protect them, and help them as they grow. Son, do you understand that?"

Draven smiled with a newfound sense of pride. "You don't have to worry. As their big brother, that should naturally be my duty."

" Draven through"

I've never had any siblings—even in my past life, he thought. So I don't really know what being an older brother means. But as long as I'm here, I will protect them… even if it costs me my life.

His father nodded. "I'm glad to hear you say that. I'll be taking my leave now. I've business to attend to."

He turned and started walking away. As he passed Aldric and Lyriana, they both subtly bowed and said, "We congratulate His Majesty on the wonderful news."

But he simply raised a hand in acknowledgment as he walked past.

"And hey, brat," he called out, opening the door, "you should probably go see your mom."

The door closed behind him.

"Yeah… I should clean up before I go see Mom," Draven thought. " His stomach growl And grab something to eat while I'm at it."

He started walking, yawning has his stomach continue to feel.

I'm so fucking hungry right now.

As he approached Aldric and Lyriana, she bowed slightly and said,

"Please allow me to extend my heartfelt congratulations, Young Master. It is truly joyous news that you are soon going to become an elder brother."

Draven looked at her and smiled. "Yeah, thank you."

Aldric's heart raced. Now's my chance! I have to ask him now.

He bowed his head.

"Your Highness, I realize this may not be the most appropriate moment, but I humbly request the honor of sparring with you, if it would please you."

Draven turned, his gaze sharp.

"What the hell, dude?! Of course this isn't a good time!"

Lyriana, standing beside Aldric, groaned internally. Crap! What the hell, bro? Why would you ask to fight him right now?!
