Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Chapter 279

Nyx’s eyes lit up. She could tell it was Thron’s voice.

Then, another even deeper lion’s roar echoed, making Nyx even more excited.

Felix was here too.

With the two lion roars, the hyenas arrogant demeanor vanished without a trace as they fled in terror.

“Run!”

“It’s those two!”

“So scary.”

No longer concerned with dealing with the young female cub, they scattered and ran in all directions.

The mates arrived just in time, and Nyx was lucky to escape with her life.

Having survived, she wasn’t left with any psychological scars; instead, her heart was filled with excitement as she quickly crawled out of the bushes and ran toward the two male lions. “Theon, Felix.”

Theon and Felix had originally been planning to chase the annoying hyenas and vent their increasingly irritable moods due to the hot weather. Suddenly, they saw a lion cub happily running toward them,

They exchanged a glance, both seeing confusion on each other’s faces. They thought. Where did this little one come from?

By some strange impulse, they stopped in their tracks, staring at the lion cub as it came closer.

The golden–maned lion stiffened as it felt the warm little body pressed against its face. He thought, ‘Why, why is she so

affectionate?

“Do you know us?” Black Mane asked calmly.

Upon hearing that, Nyx froze. She lifted her small head, carefully looking at the two male lions again, very sure she hadn’t mistaken her mates.

Although they looked younger now and seemed to be in the subadult stage with their manes not fully grown, with their strong, solid bones and handsome appearance, they were definitely Theon and Felix.

Not all male lions looked this striking.
