Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Chapter 165

Jorge could already see it–Pale Wolf getting rejected and letting out a heartbroken howl.

He sighed, resigned to the fact that he’d have to console the poor guy soon.

Silence filled the air.

Then, just like before, Nyx took one of his fluffy paws in her hand and smiled, “Okay.”

Jorge couldn’t believe his eyes or ears. He thought, ‘Did she really say yes? Just how lucky is this Pale Wolf guy?‘

Aurelius couldn’t sit still anymore. His ears twitched as he glared at Pale Wolf, clearly annoyed. He thought, ‘Guess dumb luck is a real thing… Tch. Whatever, considering this guy risked his life to protect Nyx, I’ll let it slide for now!

Erik himself couldn’t believe he actually succeeded in confessing. He just stood there, completely dumbfounded.

“But there’s something else I need to tell you,” Nyx said, brushing her fingers over the scar on his head.

Those words sent Erik into a spiral of nerves. He spent the entire afternoon lost in wild thoughts. Following Nyx home, he listened to her tell a miraculous story, and his expression grew even more dazed.

Yet, he never once doubted the truth of Nyx’s words. Without a trace of skepticism, he stood there in shock for a moment- then dropped to the ground with a thud.

Nyx flinched at the heavy impact.

“I–I swear to be loyal forever. I’m willing to die for you,” Erik stammered, nervous to the point of stumbling over his words. Luckily, words didn’t matter in this ritual–what counted was sincerity.

And he truly meant it. He would be Nyx’s loyal slave, and he really would die for her. He didn’t need to say anything more- his actions had already proven it.

Nyx pulled him into a tight hug. “I accept.”

A mark appeared on Pale Wolf’s chest.

He frantically tugged his shirt open, staring at the tiny, adorable sapling before looking up at Nyx, eyes sparkling with excitement.

He belonged to Nyx now.
