Beast King'S Crippled Mate

21 Chapter 21: A Piece of Freedom (1)

Gale's brows creased as he knew that Jade was subtly trying to remind him that he would have many mates in the future. But he wasn't here to pick up a fight with her, so he simply ignored it and continued, “What did you tell my mate about the curse? Did you tell her everything?”

"I did not."

"Then why did she keep offering herself as a sacrifice to cure the curse?!" Gale was pissed by how lax Jade was. The gnawing feeling inside his heart lingered, and it worsened whenever he thought about Swan and her insistence on sacrificing herself. "You are the only one who knows the true extent of my curse."

Jade smiled and replied, "All I said is that-you're forced to marry many women due to your curse. She just lets her mind run wild with possibilities. Though, it's surprising that she can be so spot on.”

Gale gritted his teeth, “I don't believe you.”

"It's not my problem whether you believe me or not. But isn't she right? You can treat her right, then open that blindfold of yours. You can use her as a sacrifice, and you will be cured of the curse."

"Nonsense! The curse requires me to fall in love first!"

"And you are not in love with her?"

"No!" Gale denied vehemently.

Jade raised her brow, and her lips curled up deviously.

"Well, that's good. Since you need to share your love with everyone in your harem in the future, Jade stated. “Though, I doubt that you're here just to accuse me of poisoning her mind, especially after you keep yelling at her to keep silent."

Gale was reminded of his true intention to find Jade. He was reluctant at first because
