Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Chapter 343

Before Zayne could finish, Nyx raised her hand and covered his mouth. There was no need for further explanation; she

silenced him.

She recalled that Zayne had indeed paused for a while earlier, then there was a subtle change, but at that time, distracted to think about it and didn't investigate further.

It turned out that his memory had returned.

Zayne observed Nyx's expression, then reached out and pulled her into his arms, speaking gently, "Do you prefer him?"

"Who?" Nyx froze, blinking in confusion, and then understood what he meant. She couldn't believe it. "Are you jealous of your own self?"

Although there was a difference in personality between amnesiac Zayne and the one who hadn't lost his memory, they were, at the core, the same person. They shared the same soul.

"He's you, and you're him. If I like him, it means I like you; because I like you, I also like him," Nyx said, looking down at Zayne. "Do you understand?"

Their eyes met, and Zayne nodded obediently. "I understand. Nyx likes me."

"But you're more proactive with him." Zayne lowered his gaze, his tone laced with an unmistakable hint of sadness.

That was indeed true; it had happened.

Nyx couldn't argue, and seeing her mate looking so pitiful, she couldn't help but soften. "It's just that amnesiac you didn't understand anything. You were a bit silly, and I found it really cute."

Seeing him, usually full of schemes, suddenly so awkward and clumsy, naturally made her feel more intrigued.

As soon as she finished speaking, Nyx realized something felt off, as if she was making it worse, so she decided to stop defending herself. Instead, she lowered her head and kissed Zayne's forehead, showing with her actions that her feelings hadn't changed.

Whether it was the amnesiac version of him or the current one, she could still be very proactive.

Zayne caught the hint, and a gleam of mischievous satisfaction flashed in his gray-blue eyes.

The little rabbit was already caught. The big wolf slowly pulled in the trap, stepping back and shaking his head. "No need to force it, Nyx."

"Sure." Nyx bit.

She was tired, but just a little. She was just relying on her ability to turn into a little rabbit to play coy.

Zayne smiled gently, "Okay"

It took Nyx a long time to realize that she had been tricked.

But by then, it was too late. Zayne didn't let her go for even a moment, preventing her from turning into a little rabbit, and began to ask other questions. "Why do you like that tabby cat so much?"

"Is it because she's cute? I don't think so," he said gently, but to Nyx, his tone felt cold. "Do you like felines more?"

Already at odds with Aurelius, Zayne loathed everything related to felines- whether big cats or small, male or female.

Nyx felt like she was drowning in his jealousy, weakly defending herself. "Dogs, dogs are cute too. I like dogs."

She thought. As for wolves, they love biting people and tricking us too. Noel's so scheming-just like his father.

Zayne paused, then suddenly chuckled, "Wood"

Nya was both angry and amused. She kicked him hard, and while he wasn't paying attention, she seized the opportunity. quickly turning into a little rabbit and scampering far away.

This time, the wouldn't turn back into her human form no matter what. She would never fall for it again.

Zayne shamelessly followed, soothing his flustered mate. "Nyx's beast form is so cute. Let me hold you,"

When Nyx was in her human form, though not exactly skinny, she was neither fat nor out of shape-her body was perfectly proportioned. But in beast form, she looked like a chubby little ball with short legs, fluffy fur, and a shiny coat.

It wasn't until the little rabbit couldn't take it anymore and kicked him that he finally pulled back a little, his expression reluctant to let go.
