Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Upon hearing that Erik was going to marry Nyx again, Aurelius could no longer sit still and rushed over without delay. The thought that the loophole it could exploit was about to be closed made the little white cat anxious, pacing back and forth

around Nyx.

Having known each other for years and lived together for so long, Nyx had never seen him so unstable before. She found it quite amusing and couldn't help but secretly watch him for a while before pulling him into her arms, soothing him by stroking his fur.

After all, he was still young-an emperor in his teens. His emotions weren't as controlled as those of older rulers.

Nyx kissed his soft cheek, making the little kitten dizzy with joy. However, she then calmly rejected his request, "No. My identity is not suitable for the palace; it would only attract gossip."

A ruler taking the wife of a subject was hard to explain, and such rumors would be harmful to all three of them. It was better to keep things as they were.

Aurelius's beast form was perfect for sneaking into Duke's Mansion, where he could secretly visit Nyx from time to time for a tryst.

But Aurelius was not satisfied. Given the chance to go further, he would surely seize it.

Unfortunately, Nyx was determined. No matter how much he pouted, begged, and tried to coax her, she would not relent.

After being rejected several times, the little white cat lay dejectedly in Nyx's lap, as though it had lost all its strength and tactics.

"Be good." Nyx, knowing this was all part of the little scheming cat's performance, still couldn't help but feel a bit of sympathy. She spoke softly, "We need to think about the bigger picture."

If Aurelius's reign were stable, with no internal or external threats, she wouldn't mind how their reputation looked. She could go to the palace with him.

But with Banon's situation still unresolved, and enemies eyeing the throne, she didn't want her mate to become the subject of rumors or suffer bad reputations. She didn't want them to be blamed for the downfall of a regime or for losing the people's trust.

Nyx appealed to reason and emotion, and after spending some intimate moments with Aurelius, who had reverted to his human form, she finally persuaded him to give up his intention of taking her to the palace.

The cat who had tasted the forbidden fruit couldn't forget Nyx's intimacy, so he began frequenting Duke's Mansion more often, as if trying to compensate for the unspoken grievances in a different way.

Erik naturally noticed the blatant signs.

The two young males, both full of youthful energy, began to compete with each other in bed, using Nyx as the battleground, each trying to prove they were stronger than the other.

Nyx suffered greatly because of this.
