Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Chapter 316

The open space outside the cave was already crowded. Zayne pushed through the crowd to find Nyx

squatting in the middle, holding Lila and Gina apart with each hand. The two fluffballs had stopped fighting but were still arguing.

"She hit me first." Gina pointed an accusing paw at the tabby cat.

“I hit you because you were bullying Nyx,” Lila retorted.

She had come to see Nyx and immediately saw Gina in beast form, chasing Nyx and biting her hand.

Gina was furious. "When did I bully Nyx? This is slander."

Nyx was also confused. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly understood and couldn't help but laugh, vouching for Gina. “She wasn't bullying me. She was just eating the roasted sweet potato from my hand.”

"Roasted sweet potato?" Lila's anger subsided, and she blinked curiously.

But Gina was still upset, snorting coldly, "Nyx was feeding me. What's it to you? You're just jealous of me." These words immediately set Lila off again. “Jealous of you?” she growled, sharpening her claws. "What do you have that I could possibly be jealous of?”

"Nyx has already fed me and held me. She even invited me to come play with her whenever I wanted. She likes me the most." When it came to arguing, Lila was clearly the stronger contender. Her rapid-fire sentences left Gina speechless.

Unable to speak her mind, she bared her teeth in a fierce snarl and almost struck out, but Nyx, quick as lightning, pinched her mouth shut. "No fighting."

After scolding her, Nyx hurriedly shoved half a roasted sweet potato into Gina's mouth, using both kindness and authority. The little wolf, with its long fur, was successfully coaxed by the half-sweet potato.

"Do you want some?" Nyx sighed in relief, then evenly distributed the remaining half of the roasted sweet potato, offering it to Lila.

Although it had cooled down a bit, its sweet, fragrant aroma still captivated the senses. Lila twitched its nose, forgetting about the argument, and wrapped its front paws around Nyx's wrist. It stood up on its hind legs, eagerly devouring the sweet

treat.

Nyx looked at the chubby tabby cat and couldn't help but smile, patting her head. "So you're Lila."
