I wish I realized my feelings for Winter earlier. None of this would have happened. Qibli could have been with MoonWatcher, and Winter would not be sacrificing anything. He might become a eunuch, but Qibli will still love him, no matter what. I wish I was the one that had Winter's egg. Maybe I still can.

"Anemone! I have a question for you." Anemone turns around and looks at me.

"Yes, what do you need?" Anemone has improved greatly since Darkstalker. Should I ask her for this? Would Winter even want it? No he probably wouldn't, but I do, and it is for Winter's happiness.

"Anemone can you enchant me to have Winter's egg before he sacrifices his... well ya know?" I manage to get that out successfully, without becoming a blubbering mess. She signs and more her head. Anemone can read thoughts in a way. It scared me. All of a sudden I felt something grow within my womb, an egg. Freezing time within my life. Three weeks until it is fully laid. Then 60 days until it hatches.

Maybe it would be the for best, but then again maybe it wouldn't. I don't really know though. Is this the right thing to do? Will Winter even accept the eggs as his possible dragonets? I have to tell him.

"Winter. I have something to tell you," I say. He looks at with deep, blue, sad eyes. He was crying. I bring him into my chest and wrap my wings around him. "What is wrong, love?" Did I really just say love? Winter doesn't love me like that.
