After that first time, it was as if they became newlyweds on their honeymoon. Thorin couldn't get enough of her and she couldn't get enough of him. He explored every inch of her body and she returned the favour. They tried out different positions. Standing. Seated. Lying down. Her on top. Side by side. From the front. From the back.

And in different locations. In the space that resembled her old home. In the living room. In the variety of gardens. Even in the elevator. Sometimes the lovemaking was slow and gentle, especially in their room. Sometimes, it was fast and furious, especially in places where people could walk in, like the elevator. Each time they did it in a seemingly public space, it gave her a slight thrill from the fear of someone walking in to discover them humping like dogs on heat. Of course, no one had ever walked in on them. Thorin made sure of that.

The days went by this way. Zi Mei spending some time at the library before Thorin sought her out. Then clothes will be flung everywhere while moans and the wet sound of skin slapping against skin filled the air. Sometimes, they don't even make it out of the library, Thorin pushing her against the bookshelf and entering her from behind. The silver spikes never made an appearance again, much to Zi Mei's relief. Sometimes, they would go on dates too and Zi Mei would be the one planning the dates, picking the activities they do, such as Wine & Paint where they had a hilarious two hours painting ridiculous looking artworks while sipping wine or the time they went for a go-cart race and she won, much to Thorin's displeasure and bruised ego.

Zi Mei was beginning to look forward to the time Thorin come looking for her. They had settled into a routine of catching each other up on the day and then they would either fall into a fast and hot mating session or they would go for a companionable date. More often that not, the date nights would end with them making love in their room. On some days, Thorin would be late and appeared stressed and tired so they would cuddle and hold each other instead.

She could feel herself longing to see him and be with him all the time every day. He is no longer her kidnapper. He is not merely her saviour. He is now truly and in all honesty, her lover. Her boyfriend. And she is his mistress through and through.

The days turned into weeks and one day, she woke up to painful cramps. She gasped in pain, clutched her stomach and ran to the bathroom. Blood gushed down her legs before she reached the bathroom and she stared down at the amount of blood running down her legs in horror. It pooled around her feet like some terrible murder scene in a horror movie. She had forgotten to track her period but this was an inordinate amount of blood to be just her period. She think back to the date that Thorin kidnapped her. It was on May 8. She last had her period in the middle of April. It is now middle of June. She had missed her period and she did not even realised it. She was so engrossed with Thorin that she didn't even know how much time had passed.

Realisation dawned but the cramps in her belly became worse, squeezing so painfully, she felt as if she was about to pass out. She groaned in pain and her legs gave way. She collapsed unceremoniously in her own pool of blood.

Thorin sat up at the sound of her groaning and collapsing. He jumped up and went to her. Noticing the blood and her pale face which was wrought with pain, he drew her close and kissed her forehead. He scooped her up in his arms, ignoring the blood staining his clothes and still dripping from her.

"I am so sorry…sometimes, the first one is not viable enough to survive…" he murmured to her. He carried her to the bed and placed her gently on it. The bed sheets underneath her turned a bright scarlet from her blood. He didn't care. Instead, he placed a warm hand on her belly and soon, the pain subsided into a dull nagging ache. Blood is still dripping from her, the scarlet stain on the bedsheet spreading wider.

"What's going on…the pain…" she asked weakly. She could feel tears filling her eyes. Deep in her heart, she knew what happened, she just could not admit it to herself.

"My little Zi, I am so sorry…" he held her and kissed her forehead again. "It is my fault…it is the curse of the dragon shapeshifters," he said. He placed his hands on the bed and the blood disappeared. She felt a pad appeared between her legs. The squeezing roiling pain was now gone but a dull ache remain and a void. It was as if she had lost something.

"What do you mean…a curse?" she asked.

"We just lost our first child…the curse made sure of it and this could happen again…with the second one," he said sadly.

Her heart twisted. She was filled with loss and grief for the child she never even realised she carried inside her.

"What curse was that and why didn't you tell me that," she asked.

She is now sobbing openly. Her heart felt as if someone had stabbed her with a serrated knife and twisted it at every beat of her heart. She was so nervous about getting pregnant and yet here she was, she lost a baby she never knew she was carrying and it is breaking her heart.

"I am so sorry my little Zi, I…I thought the curse might skip me but it looked like it doesn't skip a single generation," he sighed.

He told her that every clan leader of the Heaven's Descent Clan is cursed to lose their first and second child before the child is born. Only the third child will survive to be born but not the fourth. The fifth child have a 50/50 chance of survival and only from the sixth child onwards, will all children survive through the whole pregnancy and be born healthy. This was why Thorin was an only child. His mother could not take it anymore and stopped having more chldren after he was born. It was also why the dragon shapeshifters in the clan have few offsprings.

Zi Mei was both upset and disturbed. This meant that she had to get pregnant again and again and suffer this devastating loss at least two more times. She doesn't even know if she could take such heartbreak repeatedly.

Thorin held her silently, stroking her hair gently.

"Please tell me, what can I do to make you feel better," he murmured.

"I don't know if I can do this again…this is much too painful…" she sobbed. She cried for the child who never even get a chance to see the world and it was gone. She knows it is probably just a cluster of cells at this stage but still, it could have grown into a child. A child she and Thorin made. A child that could resemble Thorin's dashing good looks or a mixture of both hers and Thorin's features.

Thorin released a heavy breath and tightened his embrace.

"My heart break just as much as you…we could have a little girl who looks just like you…" his voice shook slightly.

"I can't imagine getting pregnant again, knowing that this will happen…Thorin, I really can't," she sobbed into his chest. He held her without saying anything, stroking her back reassuringly.

"Let's not think about the future, let's just grief for our number one for now," he murmured eventually. She nodded and continued to sob into his chest, her shoulders shaking.

"Do you need me to get you anything? Warm water?" he asked her as her sobs slowly subsided. He handed her a handkerchief and she took it to wipe her eyes before blowing her nose.

"Don't I need to see the doctor?" she asked him. Shouldn't she at least get checked?

"Don't worry, as a clan leader, I have healing powers, I have repaired whatever that needed repair, you just need to let nature takes its course," he said.

He asked if she felt any pain. She shook her head in response. The dull ache is now so mild, she could barely feel it anymore. The only sign of her miscarriage was the wetness between her legs, dampening the pad. She is still bleeding profusely.

"I am still bleeding…is that normal?" she asked him. He nodded.

"It will take a while to shed all the lining and you will expel…um..the cells naturally," he said, pausing slightly at the word 'cells'. She immediately knew what he meant. She will have to let their child pass out of her naturally.

The thought brought on a new wave of tears and then she was sobbing again. He continued to hold her, patting and stroking her reassuringly, murmuring comforting words.

"Let it all out, it is okay to feel this way, just remember that it is never your fault," he said.

Zi Mei didn't know how long she stayed in his arms crying but she fell asleep while still clutching him close to her while she bawled over the loss of their first child.
