Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Time ticked away. The figure never got up,

“He’s dead?” Nyx’s mind went completely blank.

She thought, ‘No chance to surrender? Just got shot dead like that? Isn’t Jaws supposed to be really strong? How did he not dodge the Neutron Lance?‘

Nyx felt intense shock from head to toe, while her face was burning hot. There wasn’t a shred of joy in her heart, just an empty, hollow feeling.

Her eyes stung like there was sand in them. She raised a hand to rub them when she suddenly heard a familiar, gentle voice behind her. “Are you crying for me?”

In an instant, every weapon turned toward the figure that had just appeared.

Nyx whipped her head around and saw Jaws standing there, completely unharmed, looking at her with a smile in his eyes.

Even with all those weapons aimed at him, Jaws showed no fear at all. Seeing Nyx upset over him, he felt completely satisfied–like he could die with no regrets.

“A bionic?” Felix narrowed his eyes at Jaws, quickly assessing the situation.

“Sharp eyes, Your Excellency,” Jaws chuckled and nodded.

The relief Nyx had just felt instantly vanished. She thought, ‘If the Jaws standing in front of me is a bionic, and then the one who got killed just now…

“That one was a bionic too; don’t worry.” Jaws walked toward Nyx, wanting to wipe away her tears, but the group of males surrounding her blocked him immediately.

Nyx frowned. She couldn’t tell that the Jaws in front of her was a bionic–just like she hadn’t noticed the one who got killed was a bionic either.

They were way too real. Every movement or word was exactly like the real Jaws.

Jaws could see her confusion and explained, “These two bionics are equipped with the NeuroSync System. I control them remotely myself. You’re not talking to an AI or a pre–programmed response–it’s me.”

Unlike regular bionics, these ones were practically his clones.

Nyx finally understood. She studied the bionic in front of her for a while, making sure Jaws was really alive. Only then did her tension start to ease.

She let out a long breath, her worried expression fading as she ground her teeth a little.

She thought, “This bastard tricked me again. All that sadness just now? A complete waste of emotions.

“Sorry,” Jaws admitted his mistake right away.

beforehand–not because he didn’t trust her or was afraid she’d try to kill him, but because he’d planned for this exact scene to happen. He wanted to see if she’d feel even a little bit reluctant to lose him. The result was better than he ever expected.
