I, Valon, am frantically searching for my mother.

Alice's mother, the silver dragon, was clearly not expecting such a response.

"puff……"

Her icy blue eyes widened slightly, her long silver eyelashes blinked, and the faint melancholy on her face was quickly replaced by an irrepressible smile.

"Hmm~ Mom understands."

Alice's mother gently embraced Wayne, holding him in her arms like a baby.

"Our little Wayne is still a baby~"

Alice lowered her head and affectionately rubbed her cool, smooth chin against Wayne's head and neck, her voice so gentle it could melt water.

"Babies should eat baby food, right?"

"It was Mom's oversight. She forgot that our baby Wayne is still so small and it's not suitable for him to eat adult dragon food all at once..."

"Come here, Mommy will hold you and let's eat the food that babies should eat."

As Alice spoke, she adjusted her position to make Wayne more comfortable in her arms.

Then, carrying Wayne, they walked deeper into the dragon's lair.

"Um...Mom, I...I can walk by myself..."

Wayne was a little stunned by the sudden baby hug, and at the same time felt a sense of shame.

How old is he! And he's still being carried around like this!

Wayne instinctively twisted his body, trying to break free from the silver dragon mother's embrace.

"Don't move around, baby~"

Alice's mother seemed to have anticipated his reaction. Instead of letting go, she gently patted Wayne's bottom a few times with one paw, just like she would soothe a real baby.

Wayne: "..."

Wayne froze instantly, and then he gave up struggling.

Forget it, I'll just lie down.

When Wayne was finally able to calm down and enjoy his mother's embrace, he realized...

Oh my god, Mom's embrace is so comfortable!

In his past life, when he was able to be held, Wayne didn't have the ability to remember, so he couldn't enjoy the feeling of being held in someone's arms.

After he transformed into a dragon here, Tia's mother was naturally very kind to him, teaching him hunting and various skills... but she didn't hug him much.

Now, Wayne finally got to experience what it felt like to be held in his mother's arms.

Since he was still a baby dragon, little Wayne looked quite fitting nestled in Alice's arms.

The silver dragon's cool scales felt refreshing against his skin, and his embrace was broad and secure. Wayne could even smell his mother's pleasant scent.

Really fragrant!

Wayne, in a fit of despair, leaned his head against Alice's mother's chest and chose to completely indulge himself.

Alice, holding Wayne, passed through the thick, intricately carved snowflake curtain into a warmer side room.

This appears to be Alice's bedroom, with thick, soft fur from some unknown beast covering the floor, moonstones emitting a soft glow inlaid on the walls, and a rich, fresh scent of grass and trees filling the air.

With a sudden pull from Alice's dragon claw, the stone door at the entrance to the side chamber slammed shut with a resounding click, separating the inside from the outside.

In the vast, warm, and private space, only the two of them remained.

When Alice gently placed him on the soft, thick fur, Wayne finally came to his senses, slightly waking up from the dizzying feeling of being held.

He looked around and finally remembered that he was supposed to eat.

How did I get here?

Wayne asked:

"Mom...what are we eating?"

Yeah, what are we eating?

Before him, the silver dragon Alice slowly lay down in front of Wayne, bringing herself to eye level with him.

His icy blue eyes were now brimming with an almost overflowing, unreserved doting affection.

She reached out her paw and gently stroked Wayne's dragon face, speaking softly in a gentle and matter-of-fact tone:

"Of course, baby wants to drink milk!"

"Come on~"

"Mommy is feeding you milk."

……

"Quack, I don't want to drink milk!"

Wayne jumped up in fright.

As we all know, love can be found at the ends of the earth, but not at the corners of the sea.

If this continues, Wayne will be relegated to the parenting section of the forum.

However, Alice pressed Wayne down with one paw and then looked confused.

"What's wrong, baby? Don't you like breast milk? But..."

Silver Dragon's mother leaned a little closer, blinked, and said in a tone that soothed a baby:

"It should taste really good! Mommy prepared it especially for you! Come on, baby, just have a bite to try? Mommy will feed you, it's not hot~"

No, Mom, I really can't drink this!

Wayne tried to shut his mouth and shake his head, but the next second...

A strange sensation was shoved into his mouth.

Wayne opened his eyes and found a huge baby bottle, similar to one used for feeding babies, being shoved into his mouth.

It really is a baby bottle!

Wayne then realized what was happening.

That's not right!

We dragons are oviparous, so where would we get a grandmother?

Now I can rest easy!

The white liquid in the bottle emitted the aroma of Milong. Wayne took a sip of the liquid; it was sweet and had a milky scent.

It is indeed the milk of some kind of organism.

Drink it all up!

Wayne didn't need to be fed anymore; he held the bottle and drank by himself.

Seeing that Wayne had finally stopped resisting and was instead drinking the milk bottle with great relish, Alice's mother finally breathed a sigh of relief, her icy blue eyes curving into gentle crescents.

She reached out her paw and gently stroked Wayne's cheek, which was slightly swollen from sucking so hard, and said softly:

"How is it? Doesn't it taste great? This is the best quality unicorn milk that I've been saving for a long time!"

"If Little Wayne likes it, drink more so you can grow taller!"

Oh dear, metal dragons are better for babies.

There's even unicorn milk to drink! That must be really hard to come by, right?

Back in the day, Tia's mother didn't have these. Wayne and her sister Lina ate juicy troll crickets.

However, Wayne thought Alice's mother's way of raising children was a bit too human.

The baby bottles, the grandmother, and the red envelopes—it's obvious they've learned a lot from humans.

However, considering that silver dragons often frequent human society, this is not entirely unexpected.

While Wayne was lost in thought and trying to eat with the baby bottle in his arms, Alice had already adjusted her position, lying on her side on the thick fur, and gently pulled Wayne, along with the large baby bottle in his arms, into her broad and cool embrace.

She gently embraced Wayne with one front paw, while the other paw gently and rhythmically patted Wayne's back, just like a human mother lulling her baby to sleep.

"Sleep, sleep, my dear little Wayne..."

Alice hummed a soothing tune softly as she gently patted Wayne.

"You must be exhausted today, right? After you drink your milk, it's time for a good night's sleep~"

Perhaps because it was so comfortable to lie in his mother's arms while drinking milk, Wayne soon became drowsy, but he still tried to keep his eyes wide open.

Quack, I don't want to sleep!

I want to strengthen my bond with my mom!

However, what met his stubborn resistance was the gentle smile of the silver dragon mother, which could melt away all his defenses and vigilance, as well as even gentler pats and humming.

"Sleep, sleep... Little Wayne is sleepy, isn't he? It's okay, you can sleep peacefully here with Mommy..."

Alice's voice grew softer and softer, as if imbued with magic, gently enveloping and sinking Wayne's last conscious thought.

"Sleep well, little Wayne, sweet dreams... Tomorrow morning, when the sun rises, Mommy has a big surprise for our little Wayne!"

Wayne did have a good dream!
