The Switched Daughter's
A bond that remains connected even if it is very far away.

In Yu empire, everyone felt happiness because their empress was pregnant in the early months. Elders Ying and elder Zan were also there to protect the empress and the baby in her womb. But, just as everyone was asleep, Empress Yu had a nightmare.

"No, no don't go son, no,,,," the empress cried out as she awoke from her sleep with her hands pointed forward as if trying to reach something.

"What's my queen" the emperor woke up to his wife's screams.

"Hiks,,, hysterics,, hysterics," the empress instead of answering, she just cried making emperor Yu even more confused.

"What's my empress, say something don't just cry" Emperor Yu said.

"Hiks,,, hyx,, I miss my son" the empress murmured.

"Didn't we just meet last night at dinner, then why did you miss them" perplexed emperor Yu.

"Hiks,,,,,".

"Ah, alright, I will call them" the emperor resigned as he walked towards the room door.

"Guards, please wake up and call the princes and princesses here, and please also call elder Zan and elder Ying" the emperor ordered one of the guards in front of his room.

"Good noble" replied the guard. Then, he passed away going towards the prince's pavilium.

The guard came to the prince's pavilions, the princess and also the elder's room. The bodyguard told her that her highness wanted to meet this late at night, and she also told her that she heard the empress' crying voice, making those who heard her become worried that something might happen to the empress. So, in a hurry, those summoned immediately rushed to the room of the emperor and empress.

"Dad what's wrong?" xian asked as he had just entered the emperor's room along with the others.

"Your mother" replied the emperor briefly as she rubbed his hand gently on the empress's arm in her arms, in an attempt to appease the empress.

"Mother, what's wrong?" xian asked, but there was no answer that Empress Yu gave other than her sobs that still did not subside.

"If you don't tell us, then how are we going to know what you're worried about, dear" elder Ying said as he held Empress Yu's hand.

About half an hour passed after elder Ying's words, finally the empress was willing to talk and tell her nightmares.

"I dreamt I was staring at the back of a woman the same age as Anchi who was dancing with butterflies in autumn. I looked at her from behind who seemed to be very beautiful like a goddess, with golden-colored hair that was so long it almost touched the ground. He was wearing a white shirt. However, he suddenly changed into a black all-round shirt, his hair turned black, then he turned his body towards me. I saw him have fangs and horns with a face so white as a ghost. As she turned her body around, she said 'this really hurts mom, and I'm sorry that maybe I won't be around you anymore' then he disappeared into the black dust that was carried flying by the wind. When he said that, I didn't know why, but my heart felt so sick. It was as if she was indeed my daughter, but I did not see her face as she danced in her white clothes as well as her golden hair. I saw her, when she had turned so horrible, so I couldn't see her face. But, I'm sure that he's neither Anchi nor Anshi. I feel like I have a bond with her, but who she is I don't know" the empress told me as she lowered her head.

'Wang Yuan' Inner elder Ying and Zan were compact.

"Where are you going?" anshi asked as she looked at elder Zan who was walking out.

"Grandfather should see grandfather's friend, to ask about your mother's dream" replied elder Zan.

"I'm coming" said elder Ying.

"Calm down, and rest, son" said elder Zan as he looked at the empress who was also staring at elder Zan.

Elders Zan and elder Ying went to the moon empire to meet their grandchildren. But, when they arrived, they were disappointed that their grandchildren were in the empire the night to fight. They heard that from the imperial gatekeeper of the moon. So, they're into the night empire.

******

Everyone was still in their shock from hearing the remark from Ying Wie. However, it did not last long as the speech of the emperor's daughter of the night that saw Mona turned even more terrifying.

"Mother, I'm afraid" said the emperor's daughter at night when she saw Mona's monstrous appearance. So, she chose to hide behind her mother.

"Darling, it's okay" the emperor's consort of the night tried to calm her frightened daughter looking at the crazed Mona as she stared at Mona.

"Ah,, mother,,,, this is a pain, my body is very hot and sick, mother".

Mona's appearance changed to be so terrible with her golden hair turning black with long, red eyes, fangs and increasingly elongated horns, and the color of her skin that turned white was like a ghost while looking solemnly at the night emperor's daughter.

"It looks like your blood is very sweet, little girl. So, come here" her smile as she looked towards the night emperor's daughter who was hiding in fear behind the night empress.

"Non him, there's very little blood. So, choose one of us who is an adult" said Ying Wie.

"Your blood is not as sweet as that little girl" Mona went down one staircase with her eyes still looking towards the night emperor's daughter who occasionally peeked at her.

"Don't you dare mess with my nephew" said prince Ming Zan as he stood before the night empress with the two swords he held in both hands.

"No one dares to hurt her because she is my woman" Ming Fan said trying to weigh down the sword held by Ming Zan by using his strength.

"Second sister, that horrible woman wants to suck Zuwie's blood. So, of course I as his uncle then it is my duty to protect him" Ming Zan said making the two look at him with a very terrible look.

"The woman you said was terrible was my sister/your sister-in-law" said Ying Wie and Ming Fan.

"Akh,,," cried Ming Fan as Mona suddenly bit her neck. Then, he sucked Fan's blood very greedily as if he was struggling with someone else.

"Patience, slowly, no one will take it away from you my queen" Fan tried to calm Mona down by stroking her hair and back while standing up. However, her body grew limp as Mona continued to suck her blood making her fall to sit on the floor, but she still held Mona who continued to suck her blood. While staring that her second brother was starting to limp, Ying Wie approached Mona and Fan.

"Sister, you can also suck dar,,,, laugh," Ying Wie's words were cut off because Mona strangled Ying Wie's neck, with her fangs still around Fan's neck.

"She's your sister, don't you remember?" fan said in an attempt to release Mona's hand that was strangling Ying Wie's neck.

"It doesn't matter second brother, you can hurt me whenever you want, as long as it makes my sister happy" ying Wie said as she kissed Mona's hand that was strangling her neck with her eyes constantly looking towards Mona.

"Ah,,, Ying Wie, Fan, sorry" Mona took her hand off Ying Wie's neck and pushed Fan away slightly. But, Fan pulled himself back into his embrace.

"No problem" Fan said, kissing Mona's lips that had traces of blood.

"I'm sorry, because I can't control myself so I can hurt times,,," Mona said in a speech and her eyes returned to normal as usual. But, his words could not be resolved because Mona fell unconscious.

"Mona,,," shouted Ying Wie and Fan compactly.

"Ying Wie, call the grand healer from the temple to my room to check on her condition" Fan asked as she held Mona in front of her chest as she passed away.

"Alright, sis" Ying Wie replied as she passed away.

The other dark imperial members could only follow Fan silently behind him. Because none of them wanted to ask Fan about Mona. After a while after Fan laid Mona on her bed. Then, came Ying Wie with the great healer.

"Please check him out as a great healer" Fan asked.

"Your curse has moved on her, because she was the woman who exchanged blood with you not" said the physician still at the door of the room.

"How do you know" surprised Ying Wie.

"He's too good for me to touch" said the healer, watching Mona lying down.

"What does that mean?" confused some people.

"He won't last another year".

"Ying Wie, where did you get such a lying man from" Fan exasperated as he let out his aura of intimidation.

"Fan, uhuk,,,, uhuk," Mona called out to make all eyes look back at her lying self.

"What do you want?" fan asked softly in contrast to his previous remark towards the great healer.

"Can you wake me up,, you,,,,".

"I understand" Fan said as he lifted up half Mona's body. Then she was behind him making Mona inside his chest to support his body.

"Come grandfather" Mona moves her hand coding for the healer to approach her.

"Yes, miss,,," confused the healer wanted to call Mona.

" Mona, that's my name's cake. Don't mind him, just answer my question. What's your reason for saying that my life is only about a year away".

"You have borne the burden that was once the burden of prince Fan, and it has been your destiny to be born a descendant of the riches,,,," said the physician cut off because of Mona.

"How can I survive for another year, is it by exchanging blood again?".

"When the curse was on the prince's body when you were young, it was useful in exchange for blood. But, now, the curse is growing because the mother body is also very extraordinary, I mean the mother is you. So, since you're incredibly strong and your age is all grown up, it doesn't work just by exchanging blood. It can be calmed when you are united" replied the physician.

"Uhuk,, youhuk, another way?" asked Fan while holding his reddened face.

"Nothing, because you're the former parent while she's the current parent. So, that's it, that's it," again the great healer's speech was cut off because of Mona.

"I want a wedding to be held as soon as possible Fan".

"What did you say Mona?" surprised Fan.

"You heard it" Mona began to close her eyes again.

"Well, can you hear me until I'm done" the healer upset Mona's behavior.

"I kept this secret of my life, for over ten years. Whereas you want to dismantle it so easily, then of course I won't let the healer happen".

"I, that's true as well" said the physician.

"But marriage is not something that you can easily say and do. You need a witness and a lady's commitment" the healer said.

"We've been committed for a long time. About the marriage witness from my family, it's not necessary because I'm a penny,, auhg,,,,," Mona held a part of the black rose symbol on her shoulder that suddenly bled out by itself without being accidentally injured.

"Well, leave the matter of wedding preparations to me" Fan said, holding Mona's hand on her right shoulder.

"He will feel pain during the night, if he can carry out his marriage directly tomorrow only" suggested the healer.

"So, who said you shouldn't be in a hurry" Ying Wie said.

"He said that he did not need witnesses from his family, so do it quickly so that his body does not suffer more" said the healer.

"Truly the bond of a mother and child is very strong yes" said someone who entered Fan's room.
