New law of Beast Taming

"Yoko, what are you doing here? Ah, about Moony! I was about to get you but Moony threw a fit every time I tried to bring you here. I do not know what is wrong with her. I am sorry."

Amane had tried to be as quiet as possible, but she had still ended up waking Eclipse. The child did seem sorry for not having answers to Amane's questions but that was to be expected.

There was no way Eclipse could make up for the difference between him and Amane in such a short amount of time.

"Don't worry too much about Moony. She is just going through a phase and it would be alright in a few days. But we might need a bigger space for her once she is finished maturing."

A dragon's size could range from a small house to a large continent. There was no telling how large Moony could get if she transformed into her real form.

At the same time, she would also retain the ability to change her form. It was a toss-up to see how big she would choose to remain once she was finished growing up.

"She's maturing? Yoko, I don't know about dragons, but isn't this too soon? It has not even been a year since Moony hatched. A dragon's maturity does not start until…"

"They are hundreds of years old. I know and this is a concerning matter. I will investigate it more so you should not be worried about it."

Yoko reached out to ruffle Eclipse's hair and make him feel better. It was a habit at this point but Yoko did not mind reassuring this kid that it was alright to mess up.

Sometimes, Eclipse took things too seriously and it ended up hurting him in the long run. He needed to relax and take a step back.

"I…if you say so then I will choose to believe you. Should I take Moony from you…ouch, be gentle on me."

Moony gently bit Eclipse's hand when he tried to get her off Amane's shoulder. Then, Moony curled deeper into Amane's shoulder to show that she was unwilling to get up for any reason.

This was disrespectful but who would tell a dragon what she could and could not do?

"Yoko, I am sorry…"

"Don't be. Moony is in a mood and she would want to be with the most familiar person right now. I will take care of her for the time being so you can relax."

Once this was decided, even Eclipse had no reason to complain. He watched Moony relax on Amane's shoulder with a jealous look before he went back to sleep. Amane also decided to head back to her room.

After wasting about a few more hours, it was finally time for her to meet Sakura. Thankfully, Moony decided to finally let her go and curl up in the blanket.

It was filled with Amane's scent and would calm Moony down for the time being. It was the only way for Moony to latch off Yoko and leave her alone.

"I will be back in about three hours. Take care and do not tear my room apart. I will not be happy to see that you made a mess of my room. So, you understand, you cheeky animal?"

Amane asked as she stretched Moony's cheeks. It was tough since dragon muscles were not meant to be spread or stretched.

It made Moony grumble and she snapped Amane's hand off her face. A pair of sleepy eyes looked back at her before Moony went back to sleep. That was Amane's cue to get up and leave as well.

The dragon had a good sleep for about 1 hour before Moony felt herself stir. There was a weird smell in the room which made her feel irritated.

She had managed to make the room smell as she wanted to after spending a lot of effort and now someone had entered this room to disturb her.

The intruder was opening drawers and trying to look for something. They smelled of desperation but that did not matter to Moony. The dragon opened her jaw and bit down on the intruder's thigh.

It was only after being bitten that the intruder realized that something was wrong and that he was not alone in the room.

He looked down, only to pale as soon as his eyes landed on that white-scaly face of the dragon.

"A-AH-AHHHHH, SOMEONE SAVE ME!"

The servant yelled as he tried to get Moony to loosen her grip on his leg. His face looked terrified and the servant collapsed.

As soon as the loud noise had sounded, other servants also started to investigate the room to see what was happening. And they all looked startled to see Moony in Yoko's room.

What was more? The dragon seemed to have taken offense to see someone unknown entering her territory.

"What is going on here? Why are all of you gathered out here?"

Lady Sherina finally made her way toward the front of the crowd and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. If there was one person who could help them all out, it was Lady Sherina. She was a good person and a strong person as well.

"M-My lady, please save me. I will die otherwise. I promise not to go into a room unsupervised."

The servant who was being chewed upon by the dragon quickly assured his master as his face went paler and paler. He looked to be on the verge of collapsing already. Lady Sherina was surprised to see someone being assaulted like this.

But then her eyes turned toward the creature assaulting her worker and her eyes went wide.

She instantly recognized a dragon and she felt a sliver of fear run through her heart. She did not know what a dragon was going on here, but it made her senses stand alert.

"L-Lady, please help me out."

Sherina met the dragon's eyes and she knew that she needed to back down. There was no way she was any match for the dragon in front of her.

Luckily, the dragon lost interest in the servant quickly and threw him out. Then, the dragon closed the door behind her (no idea how with those ting claws) and that was a signal for everyone to keep away.

The head maid also made her way toward the front of the crown and she looked annoyed. She looked at the injured servant as if he had committed a grave sin.

"How many times do I have to tell all of you not to go into Lady Yoko's room when she is not here? Incidents like these keep on happening because you all refuse to listen to my words."

The head maid sounded tired when she spoke. It seemed almost as if she had lost all hope in the people around her.

Sherina Tsurugi flinched when she heard the head maid's words. She also felt guilty because she had been the one who had asked the servant to check for weaknesses in Yoko's room. In essence, this was all her fault.

"I-I am sorry, miss. I will keep these things in mind for the next time."

The servant looked traumatized and Sherina knew that she would have to compensate him for this later.

As for the head maid? She quickly got out her phone and sent a message to Lady Yoko. This was something she needed to know since it could become a big problem in the future.

But for now, this incident had been warped up and no one would dare to go against the head maid.

.........

Amane's phone buzzed and she instantly picked it up. It was a reflexive action and her hairdresser seemed to not like it.

The disapproving look Amane got from her moving around was ignored by Amane in favor of looking at the message.

"Yoko put your phone down. We are here to relax and get ourselves ready for the party. Do not sully the mood of this place."

Sakura warned as she looked at Yoko with agitated eyes as well. Sakura's face was slathered with the bleaching cream and the sensation of being stung on her face made her a little irritated.

The price for beauty was pain and Sakura endured it every time. She also felt partially annoyed by Yoko because she made the whole routine seem so painless.

"Sorry, little sis. It is a force of habit at this point. But I will tell you one thing. If anyone asked what happened in my room or to one of our servants, you should that you do not know."

Yoko told Sakura which made her mutter, 'I do not know' under her breath before she let her temper go. The face massage had helped Sakura feel a lot better than before so that was why her temper did not flare at the shortest notice.

The pair was finally done with the self-care routine in about five hours. It sounded long but it was quite a reasonable time for all the services they had kept on adding at the last minute.

For some reason, the more services they both added, the more the staff around them congratulated them. Sakura looked just as confused as Amane was.

But then Amane finally looked at the pamphlet and she could not help but suppress her laugh. It seemed that they both had been recommended bridal care and they went with it. No wonder the staff kept on congratulating them all the time.

Sakura did not realize this until they came out of the spa and saw the bill.
