Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Chapter 155

It was just a serum designed to enhance her physical condition–nothing harmful. He had gone to great lengths to gather the rare ingredients and have it specially made for her, afraid that an experimental female like her might have too short a

lifespan.

He hadn’t told her beforehand, partly because he wanted to mess with her a little. After all, she was always so cold toward

him.

But he hadn’t expected her to react like this. She behaved as if she didn’t trust him at all.

Jaws no longer felt like explaining himself. Even if he explained, Nyx probably wouldn’t believe him.

Letting go of her gently, he closed the storage case, got up, and left without a word.

Nyx, lost in anxious thoughts for a long time, eventually calmed down and realized–nothing was happening. Her body wasn’t reacting the way she feared.

Confused, she unknowingly drifted off to sleep. When she woke up, she felt surprisingly light and energized, more refreshed than she had ever been.

She grabbed something nearby and tested her strength–her grip had clearly improved. Her vision, sense of smell, and overall perception had also sharpened. Her entire body had become significantly stronger.

Is it because of that serum from last night? Have I misjudged Jaws?‘ Nyx touched her ears awkwardly.

Though Jaws often teased and provoked her, he had never actually hurt her.

Remembering the look of sadness in his eyes when he left the night before, Nyx felt a little conflicted.

When breakfast time came, Jaws was nowhere to be seen.

By lunchtime, Jaws‘ subordinates brought her food, but there was still no sign of him.

No one came to finish off her leftovers either, and they were eventually taken away. Nyx hesitated, pacing back and forth in her room before making up her mind to go check on Jaws.

She thought, ‘What if he is angry and decides not to take me back to the Empire anymore?‘

Using that as an excuse, she immediately set off.

She arrived at his quarters without any trouble. No one stopped her–on the contrary, they seemed happy to point her in the right direction.
