Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Chapter 319

A small rabbit was wedged in the gap between the bed slats, her face squished into a bundle. She blinked helplessly. "Please help me."

It was easy to crawl in, but hard to jump out. After avoiding several beasts, she tried to escape from the gap, but the space was too narrow, and she couldn't get enough leverage. After a while, she got herself stuck even more tightly,

Zayne quickly raised his front paws and carefully pulled her out. Finally seeing the light of day again, Nyx let out a long sigh and looked around, noticing many pairs of eyes staring at her, making her awkwardly curl up into a ball.

It was so embarrassing. Yet those gazes were not mocking; they were filled with admiration and envy. It turns out there were benefits to having a small beast form.

Many females and young ones in the tribe had been injured in the attack, but only Nyx had managed to avoid harm due to her size advantage, despite the beast assault.

Nyx sneezed, raised a paw to rub her face, and shook her fur vigorously to get rid of the dust. Then, with a leap, she landed precisely on her mate's head.

“It's me, Zayne." She bounced around, tapping her fluffy little paws on his head. “I'm fine. I hid away.”

She knew Zayne well enough to immediately sense what he was thinking, and hurried to comfort the guilty- looking mate. “The brown bear ate the stew and left, and the other beasts only circled around, not touching a single hair on me."

As she spoke, she jumped down and twisted her body in front of Zayne, showing off her unscathed fur from all angles. The soft little rabbit moved agilely, with no wounds, though her appearance was a bit messy, covered in dust she couldn't shake off.

Zayne didn't mind at all. He raised a paw to pull her into his arms, holding her tightly. Her soft body radiated warmth, full of life, still moving around. It wasn't an illusion. Nyx was alive.

It was as if his soul returned to its body at that moment. Zayne exhaled deeply, feeling as though he was alive again.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm. Nyx was fine, but others in the tribe had suffered real injuries. Luckily, there had been no deaths, at least not yet.

Zayne checked each injured person, instructing everyone, “Take the injured to the big cave and settle them there. I'll prepare the medicine."

The others obediently took the wounded away, leaving only Nyx and Zayne in the cave. They shifted into their human forms and dressed.

“You don't need to clean up, I'll do it in a bit.” Zayne stopped Nyx, who was about to pick up the broken pottery shards, afraid she might cut herself on the sharp pieces.
