with himself with the company of his lover. Tiramisu, similarly, realized that their true affection was solely for Powdered Cocoa. They both planned to move back to the Espresso kingdom so that Tiramisu could return to duty. Sopapilla cookie, growing closer to death from her old age, mostly lingers in her room, unable to forgive and trust herself. Milk Bread dies from old age earlier in between.

In the middle of the night (Y/N) has their son. With the weight of her forthcoming sacrifice, Dark Cacao allows for her to name the child. She chooses Dark Choco cookie in respect for the kingdom.

Saying their last goodbyes, just a day later the chocolate side of the Oreo Dragon peered into her window while she held the babe, Dark Cacao sitting next to her. Shakily and regretfully, he allows for the dragon to poke its head through. With one final kiss, she hands Dark Choco over to him. Sopapilla unexpectedly enters the bedroom behind them to voice for the dragon, thanking them for their cooperation and the treaty they had accepted to, ready to begin a new era for a new steady and benign king. With a wink, Sopapilla adds that it was most honorable for Dark Cacao's brother to do the honors.

Before Dark Cacao could react, he turned his head, seeing the window still open but (Y/N) and the dragon nowhere to be seen. When he whips his head back, Sopapilla has also vanished without detection. Left with nothing but his heir, he holds the child close, feeling a rage begin to brew inside of him. After much time of mucking in his negative thoughts, realizing that he lost the cookie he most loved, the one who showed him the way to be a good ruler but her direction was cut short, and now he had to carry on as if nothing happened. The child would be the perfect heir, no matter what.

From then on he would trust no one in fear of losing his son.

Wow. I can't explain the emotional tie I had with this fic and you all. A little brief backstory: this was my first ever attempt at writing a full length chapter story that got past Chapter 10. I've evolved so much after writing this book. Looking back at the beginning chapters then seeing Chapter 40 is a night and day difference to me. Even though I failed, I look and see many mistakes, and I had dreams too big to manifest, I'm still super happy I got this far. This is a big step, isn't it? Failure means progress, and hell , I've gotten a lot of progression out of this. It sounds stupid to be so invested and sad about ending this silly little story about cookies, but I can't help myself. I'm happy that you all got to experience a little slice of what I can do. Maybe one day I'll come back and write out what I had summarized and edit the story a bit. Maybe a completely new story, who knows? No promises, though.

Hope you guys will be surprised soon enough to what my stinky brain can fart out. Love you all <3

And for those that have read this far... Final Q&A Chapter?
