Eternal Vows of Dragons

Gu Yuena dipped herself in a spacious bathtub. The violet water touched her tender, flawless skin, and her silver hair whiffed with flower fragrances.
She stared at the glass door and saw Yunlong standing awkwardly. She bit her lips in irritation, thinking how dumb she could be to invite him into the bathroom.
To her surprise, Yunlong suddenly stripped his clothes and revealed his third leg behind the glass wall for a fraction of a second. Although it was fast, Gu Yuena couldn't hide her shock.
She gulped nervously, dipping herself even more into the bathtub and vigilantly watching the glass door.
"I'm entering." Yunlong's calm voice seemingly rubbed against her now-red ears.
"C-Come in." Gu Yuena responded sheepishly. Who would have thought the arrogant and mighty Silver Dragon King could be this nervous?
Yunlong opened the door and entered, allowing Gu Yuena to see his finely-sculpted body.
Yunlong is tall but lean. His nicely developed upper body entranced Gu Yuena into impure thoughts. His toned legs and arms even made her drool for a second.
Combined with his handsome face, it was a deadly combo for a single dragoness like her.
Unfortunately, Gu Yuena couldn't see the thing again because he wore a towel around his waist. Well, she could see the faint outline of it.
Yunlong possessed one, if not the strongest, heavenly dragon bloodline flowing in his body, and countless tribulations allowed him to make it even stronger.
That alone makes him the number one mate's candidate for Gu Yuena.
After all, Gu Yuena wanted to recover the Dragon Clan's glory!
Gu Yuena has been searching for this universe's Dragon Clan's Graveyard but discovered no result because the secret realm has drifted away from its original position.
Another method is to find the Golden Dragon King and become one again as the Dragon God. However, Gu Yuena found this method excessively worthless.
She didn't know why, but the feeling of losing her bond with Yunlong was indescribable.
It felt like her other half wasn't the Golden Dragon King anymore but a mortal kid whom she met at the bottom of the spiritual lake.
That day, he awakened her from the deep slumber.
And now, he's a Godking whose power isn't lower than her former form, the Dragon God.
Gu Yuena also felt a complex feeling in her heart, knowing she mated and had a child with Yunlong in the future.
An adorable daughter who inherited her goddess-like looks and his father's godly talent, which makes her heart bloom for eternity.
Yet their adorable daughter tricked and died under the extreme horror of a powerful being outside the Great Douluo Dalu Universe.
When Yunlong allowed her to see the memory of their daughter's final moment, Gu Yuena never felt so much hatred and resentment toward someone.
And that someone is Loki.
"Yuena, Yuena? Are you still there?" Yunlong kneeled before the bathtub and poked her cheek with a smile.
"Ah!" Gu Yuena awakened from her stupor. She looked at Yunlong and blushed. "Don't look!"
Yunlong chuckled and responded, "But you were the one who invited me here? Don't tell me the Silver Dragon King is scared of half-naked men?"
"Should I release the towel around my waist?"
"D-Don't!" Gu Yuena panicked once again. Her deep thoughts finally disappeared and were replaced with annoyance.
She puffed her cheeks and gently punched Yunong's chest, weirdly tickling him. She felt his strong muscles and mumbled, "You have gone through a lot."
"People called me one of the strongest, but I couldn't catch up to you..."
"Mortals, especially humans, always think differently."
"Want to talk it out?" Yunlong caressed Gu Yuena's fair face and caused her to shiver. The Silver Dragon King felt she was about to melt from his touch alone.
Their bloodline is too goddamn compatible!
"T-Turn around..."
"Eh?"
"I said, turn around!"
Yunlong quickly turned around and felt Gu Yuena's soft hand driving him to a small seat nearby. He didn't know what she was planning.
Gu Yuena's breath reached Yunlong's back.
"Let me wash your back."
"Uh, oh..."
"What, you don't want to?"
"Haha, please wash my back, Yuena." Yunlong laughed because he was overthinking this situation.
Gu Yuena's cheeks flushed as she rubbed Yunlong's back with scrubs.
The warmth from Gu Yuena's hand and foam made a great combination that allowed the stress to fade away from Yunlong's body. Every little ache is like impurities squished out.
Yunlong closed his eyes, feeling very relaxed.
He noticed Gu Yuena's breathing became heavier and heavier as time passed. Her intoxicating aroma hit his nostrils.
"When I met Xiaona, I was confused." He suddenly said, catching Gu Yuena off guard.
"I mean, a daughter from the future?"
"You have no idea how surprised I am at the moment. But Kaguya met our daughter when I was on the Sea God Island and went through
the God's Trials."
"She met four of my daughters. One is Gu Xiaona."
"She never told me about this..." Gu Yuena's eyes widened.
Yunlong laughed wryly and responded, "It's not that we don't want to, Yuena. We can't."
"Not long after the first trial, we finished the second and the third... Then, we go teleported to the Ancient Battlefield."
"We were trapped there for nine years before going to the alternate universe. It wasn't a coincidence for me to enter Universe-101. Someone is calling me."
"Na'er..." Gu Yuena realized something.
Yunlong nodded, "Yes, Na'er."
"She called me with her power over destiny and fate."
"But how?" Even though Gu Yuena knew the power of destiny and fate was powerful, only a handful of individuals could use them properly.
It's like swimming in muddy water.
Yunlong chuckled and returned, "Do you forget who her father and mother were?"
Gu Yuena bit her lips, "Ah..."
Yunlong stared at the mirror in front of him and saw Gu Yuena's baffled expression, making him amused.
He cleared his throat and bitterly continued, "With our bloodlines, she was 'inherently' bound to be extraordinary. Still, no amount of extraordinary could save her that day..."
"She told me I wasn't like her old father. And it's a good thing."
"My current self is deviating from my future self."
"The timeline is slipping, altering its course..."
"Na'er passed away in the future, but that doesn't mean she's in this timeline."
Gu Yuena's rosy lips parted as she finally realized what Yunlong meant by telling her this whole time. She looked at his back and noticed the heavy burden he must carry.
She's not the only one with goals and duties.
"I..." Yunlong sighed but closed his mouth again.
"I like you, Yuena."
"It's not because we are a couple in the future. It's because I enjoyed your company."
"Although we haven't known each other for so long, you have taught me many things. You make me stronger."
"When you were jealous that day, I promised you something, right?"
Gu Yuena blinked, feeling her emotions surge when Yunlong confessed to her. "I remember you promised me a date." She said with a smile.
Yunlong smiled back and responded, "Yes."
He suddenly turned around and pulled her into his embrace.
Lifting her chin, Yunlong could see Gu Yuena's beautiful violet eyes.
At the same time, Gu Yuena also could see Yunlong's deep crimson eyes.
Their instincts ran deep.
Yunlong took Gu Yuena's lips, and Gu Yuena reacted by hugging him tightly, afraid this moment would be over too quickly.
The sounds of smacking lips echoed in the bathroom.
Gu Yuena gasped out of the air, glaring at Yunlong with a smoldering gaze. Her inner heat surged out.
"Do you know there is a tradition in the Dragon Clan when two dragons mate and devote themselves to each other?"
"Oh, what is it?" Yunlong was curious.
Gu Yuena hugged Yunlong's neck and pushed her chest onto his face.
She opened her mouth and bared her fang, biting Yunlong's neck. She marked him with her bloodline essence and soul energy.
A silver dragon tattoo appeared on Yunlong's neck, giving him an extra charm.
"With this, you will be my one and only mate. For eternity."
"Even if the world got destroyed, even if I died in the future and reincarnated, the mark wouldn't disappear."
"The mark binds you as my soulmate." Gu Yuena waited for Yunlong's response and saw his stunned expression.
Yunlong stared at Gu Yuena and pulled her down, similarly biting her neck with his teeth. A platinum dragon tattoo appeared and slowly covered Gu Yuena's flawless neck.

Two dragon tattoos lit up.
Yunlong and Gu Yuena's vision gradually becomes hazy.
...
After a while, Yunlong opened his mouth and caught a naked Gu Yuena laying her head on his collarbone. They are currently on the bed, needing each other's warmth as their bond becomes closer than ever.
Her silver hair scattered on his chest.
He picked a few strands of her hair and kissed them, "When everything is over. We will revive the Dragon Clan and bring Na'er back."
"For me." He kissed Gu Yuena's forehead.
"And for you."
