All who you and Bakugou passed were shocked by his sudden appearance. No one had expected this other than Kirishima, Sero, Denki, and Mina. They all bowed before their king, sharing whispers here and there. However, Bakugou's attention was at the front, leading you to his throne room. Still holding his hand, you looked around, seeing dragons roaming the halls alongside people. There are children, too, playing in the courtyard in the middle of the castle with baby dragons. Everywhere you looked was stunning, including the tribal clothes the people wore, much like Bakugous attire. One thing is for sure, the dragon kingdom is more lively than your kingdom.

Upon reaching a large wooden door, Bakugou stops. You stopped right beside him, and you saw him lowering his head, unsure as to why. Unconsciously, you squeezed his hand reassuringly, sending him a smile when he looked at your hand and then your face. Ushering him to continue, he released your hand so he could push the doors, which he did without breaking a sweat. Your feet met a long red rug leading to an elevated platform where a grand throne sits.

At first glance, it's intimidating, with a giant dragon skull hanging above it. A reminder of how belligerent a dragon can be. The throne is decorated with dragon bones protruding from the back, and two seats are sitting behind the throne by its sides. Bakugou's eyes looked over the chair, remembering the times he found himself sleeping on it as a child. The memories surrounding this chair drew his eyes away once a familiar face came into view.

A red-eyed woman with short spiky blonde hair, carrying a tiny baby dragon in her arms. This woman is adorned in the most elegant fabric the dragon kingdom has to offer since she's the queen they all know and love. Under her striking eyes are red tribal tattoos. She wears a circlet crown on her head with two dragon heads joined together (I'm using Sansa's crown from game of thrones as a reference) and carries a staff. As Bakugou watched the woman appear out the side doors leading to another hall, her servants were her only company. You spot her as well, seeing the unmistakable resemblance between her and her son.

"Has anyone seen the high priest?" The woman asked the servant on her left.

"No, you're grace," The servant replied, causing the queen to sigh.

"Well, let me know when you find him before-" Her eyes meet Bakugou's, causing her to pause mid-sentence with a gasp. She is shocked, gently passes the sleeping dragon into her servant's arms, and slowly approaches Bakugou. Once she's in front of Bakugou, he's taller and more muscular than she remembers. Holding his face in her hands, she smiles. "Katsuki-"

"Mother," He finally spoke, resting his hands over hers. The woman rests her forehead against his, tears forming in her eyes.

"Oh, my son-you're finally home!" The woman cried, throwing her arms over his shoulders and bringing Bakugou in for a hug. Bakugou accepts her embrace and wrapped his arms around his mother. For a moment, they held each other in silence, then her cries suddenly flared into pure anger. The tempered blonde hits Bakugou on the back of his head. "What the hell were you thinking, Katsuki?!"

Bakugou grunts, rubbing his head. "Ow, what was that for you old hag!"

Now pinch his cheeks, the woman growled. "Don't call me an old hag after you left me alone to mourn for four fucking years!"

"I'm sorry, jeez...so much for a friendly 'hello hi' reunion, mother!" Bakugou hissed, his cheeks stinging at the touch of his fingers.

"Don't think I'll forgive you so easily, Katsuki. This kingdom needs its king, so act like it because my work here is done as are the councils-" Sighing once again, you've been spotted by the said woman. She raised a brow, shoving Bakugou aside. "-And you've brought a guest,"

"I'm Mitsuki Bakugou, this stupid boy's mother," The queen introduced herself whilst she pinched Bakugous's chin.

"Thank you for having me in your home, your grace. My name is Y/n L/n." You curtsied, formally greeting the queen.

"L/n? You're Queen M/n's child?" The queen stammered. To your surprise, it's your mother's name that the queen could recall, making you question their hidden history. Maybe they were friends back in the day? You thought to yourself.

"You knew my mother? What was she like?" You asked, eyes widening with curiosity.

"She was a beast in her younger days, always looking for a fight and fought in many wars against invaders. I crossed blades with her several times during the ring of fire and lost. I guessed she stopped fighting after she was married and had you. The last I saw her was when Katsuki was seven, and he learned how to ride a dragon," Mitsuki explained truthfully. She lifts your head up a little higher with the tips of her fingers. "You almost remind me of her-you have her beauty. Perhaps that's why my son is so drawn to you,"

"O-oi, you hag!" Bakugou fumed, the tips of his ears turning pink.

"Oh, we're not-not like that-" You corrected her, your face heating up.

"Oh, pardon me for assuming," Mitsuki chuckles, facing Bakugou, who looks away out of embarrassment. "Well since you're home now, Katsuki, I'll ask the high priest to prepare a feast for you here tonight to celebrate your return,"

"Do what you want-" Said Bakugou, walking up the steps leading to the throne.

"And as for you Y/n-" Mitsuki turns to you. "You and your friends will be my son's guest of honour. As his guests, you will be draped in the most elegant clothes the dragon kingdom has to offer,"

"I'd be honoured. Thank you for your kindness, your grace," You bowed your head with gratitude.

"You're welcome, young lady, but for now, I'll have my girls assist you and have an outfit prepared for you." Mitsuki gestures to her two servants, Tsuyu and Toru. "Tsuyu and Toru have the princess and Lady Ochaco bathed and dressed for tonight. Have Mina join you as well. I want the gods to be envious of y/n once you're done,"

"As you wished, your grace," The two girls said in unison, each wrapping an arm around yours. "Follow us, your highness,"

"Okay," You smiled nervously, allowing the girls to drag you away.

Once you've disappeared arm locked with Tsu and Toru, a silence fell within the throne room. The sound of the large doors closing is all that echoed. Mitsuki is nothing but bewildered by her son's change of attitude as if his cruel self had suddenly disappeared and accompanied by a girl too. Mitsuki is very eager to learn about this new Katsuki Bakugou, taking a seat upon his throne that had collected dust over the years.

"I'm surprised, Katsuki..." Mitsuki began as she walked around the throne. "I remembered when you were little, you'd chased the girls away or challenged them to a fight. And do you remember the time, you begged your father to stop throwing a ball every year on your birthday because you didn't want to be betrothed,"

"What are you blabbering on about, old woman?" Bakugou's voice rumbled.

"Are you in love with this girl, Katsuki?" Mitsuki asked, tilting her head.

"Fuck no!" Bakugou rebuked. Mitsuki fought off the urge to burst into a fit of laughter, expecting the blonde's reaction. Bakugou crossed his arms, avoiding his mother's teasing gaze so she wouldn't see his face flushing a beating red.

"By the gods, my son's heart has been snatched by a princess! She'd make a great mate and queen for you, Katsuki!" Mitsuki laughed, astonished at the revelation.

"Shut up, you old hag! She's not my mate!" The blonde screamed in response, blocking his ears. Mitsuki laughed while he groaned in annoyance. She missed teasing him like it was second nature. Bakugou, on the other hand, didn't miss this side of his mother at all. It was the complete opposite. Yet, there's a part of him telling him that his mother is always right.

Double update!!
