Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Chapter 397

They had been together for many years, so she shouldn't have been nervous.

But the mature and steady male mate was completely different from this young, reckless boy before her.

Setting aside other technical issues, just in terms of service awareness and self- control, the young male was far behind. When he got serious, he didn't show any mercy.

Moreover, recently, he had been neglected by her, and he had probably built up plenty of energy.

Nyx was so nervous that her fingers trembled slightly. Knowing she couldn't escape this, she still tried to delay. "Don't mess around, I have to go to the Ministry of Works tomorrow..."

She had promised the Minister of Works a big favor and arranged to begin some important tasks tomorrow. She had a lot to do, so she would be very busy.

Aurelius wanted to be considerate of her. But with his beloved right in front of him, seeing her in such a vulnerable state, he couldn't control himself.

He simply hugged her, and his breathing grew heavy.

You promised me, Nyx," he whispered as he kissed her neck and murmured in her ear, "You said you'd return to the palace."

"And," his tone took on a hint of grievance, "you were the one who started it..."

He had been holding back for so long.

Hearing him accuse her like this, Nyx felt guilty. She gave up struggling and raised her hand to cover her face.

If she had known that petting cats was a paid activity, she would have gone to pet the little wolf cub.

Although the little guy had grown a lot recently, and his fur wasn't as soft and smooth as the kitten's, he'd still happily let her pet him as long as she gave him a piece of jerky. At least she wouldn't have ended up losing herself.

It was as if Aurelius had seen through her thoughts. His jealousy flared up as he cupped her face, not letting her dodge. "Nyx, do you think that wolf is better than me? If you had to choose just one, who would you pick?"

He was asking about the wolf, but really, he was asking about the man.

Even though Erik was far away, he could still stir Nyx's heart, making his rival feel a sense of crisis.

Nyx thought this felt like a form of torture.
