He Killed Our Son for Her

I gave him seven tails, my soul core, my whole kingdom.He repaid me by cutting our son in half and marrying my betrayer.A thousand years later, he returns—not for me, but for my core to save her.He tortures our son. Burns my body.Then my boy rises from the flames—a golden dragon—and speaks the truth:“Her core has been inside you all along.”Now he kneels, weeps, begs me back.But what if I've forgotten how to love him?
