Chosen Mate Of The Beastmen Empire

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.

the

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?"

At home, there were more big c

big cats, and Emperor, who could turn into a little kitten, was sometimes spoiled even 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 was a

also quite perfect in Zayne's eyes. He was utterly enchanted, itching to touch her soft fur.

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.

"I passed your test, right?" Zayne shifted the topic to something more serious, showing a hint of nervousness as he asked the question that mattered most to him.

The little bunny gently patted his arm and said, "Yes, that's right."

Heavenly Law seemed to be waiting for her acknowledgment. As her words fell, a faint glow appeared at Zayne's heart.

Feeling that mysterious connection of souls intertwining, Zayne's mind trembled violently. His excitement couldn't be hidden, and it showed in his eyes and expression,

He thought, I really could be with Nyx forever."

His soul seemed to leave his body, and the scene in front of him changed

rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, Nyx was back in her familiar home, meeting many pairs of anxious and concerned eyes.

She smiled, her eyes narrowing with joy, and said to her mates, "I'm back."

To the males, Nyx had never truly disappeared. She had simply been with Zayne, seemingly in a state of soul detachment for about half a minute. But that half- minute was enough for them to endure, each second dragging on like years.

"Was everything smooth?" Aurelius had already strategically positioned himself, taking advantage of being closest to Nyx. He quickly took her hand.

He knew that in those short moments, Nyx might have experienced years in other worlds, so he tried to make himself more noticeable, fearing she might forget him or her feelings for him might fade.

Emperor had transformed into Nyx's most beloved little kitten, meowing and wagging its tail, rubbing against her leg

Nyx

thought. After all, my own cat is the cutest.

Nyx's eyes lit up with affection, and she quickly hugged the soft, white Cotton Candy, kissing its cheek. "Everything went smoothly. I even met a tabby cat"

The kitten's whining tone suddenly changed.

The kitten in her arms instantly puffed up, and Nyx snapped back to reality, quickly stopping herself from speaking.

It had been so long since she had seen Aurelius that she had momentarily forgotten that he was the most jealous one at home. Though he wore a gentle and generous face, he was the most petty without a doubt.

She looked around, pretending as if she hadn't said anything at all.

"What tabby cat?" Aurelius persisted, wanting her to clarify.

He thought. "Has Nyx been seeing other cats?"

Seeing Nyx keep silent, as if trying to brush it off, he turned to look at Zayne, his gaze sharp.

Their

eyes

met. Zayne gave a slight smile and shook his head, signaling that he knew nothing.

In front of Nyx, he kept quiet, successfully covering for her and earning a grateful glance from Nyx.

Once Nyx left the living room and went to the bedroom to rest, Zayne walked over to Aurelius, lowered his voice, and said softly. There is indeed a tabby cat that keeps bothering Nyx."

"It's a Beastman, very young and under twenty. Zayne knew what would irritate Aurelius, so he deliberately said these words to provoke him. "Nyx likes it a lot, always hugging it, making it a cat toy, and even feeding it."

These were all the privileges Emperor had earned by turning into a little cat and trying to act cute.

More importantly, he was no longer young, at least not as young as twenty.

Emperor was seething with anger but barely managed to smile. "You must feel so wronged, not getting to have enough couple time with just Nyx."

He could hear the deliberate provocation in Zayne's words and retorted with sarcasm. He thought, 'He couldn't even hold Nyx's heart, and now she has started to like someone else. What a failure.

"Not wronged," Zayne said calmly, as if being very magnanimous. "Nyx is just playing around with them. She'll still come back to me. They can't follow Nyx into this world. Even if they get some affection for a while, so what?”

This made sense. A fleeting and unpromising affair wasn't worth worrying about.

But even so, Aurelius couldn't control his jealousy. His feelings of resentment surged.

In her sleep, Nyx vaguely heard someone knocking on the window.

After living in the wild for a year and staying in a semi-open cave, she had gotten used to various noises. The soft tapping wasn't enough to disturb her sleep. She turned over and continued to sleep soundly.

Zayne had worn her out, and she was mentally exhausted, needing a good rest.

The knocking sound soon weakened.

With no further disturbance, Nyx slept even deeper. Her mates knew she was tired, so they hesitated outside, not daring to wake her. They let her sleep until she woke up on her own

When she opened her eyes, it was already deep into the night.

In the pitch-black room, Nyx lazily stretched and lay on the bed with her limbs

sprawled out in an X staring blankly at the

ceiling for a while before fully waking up.

She finally found that she had already returned home.

The window was gently knocked on again.

This time, Nyx heard it clearly.

She quickly climbed out of bed, smiling as she opened the window. As expected,

she saw a little white cat sitting there.

His bright blue eyes were wide and moist, staring at her without blinking, as if

filled with grievance.

"What's wrong?" Nyx couldn't bear to see him looking so pitiful, so she quickly picked him up. "Have you been waiting for me for a long time?"

She felt a bit annoyed; she shouldn't have slept so deeply and for so long.

The little white cat pressed his head tightly against her chest, folding his ears and snuggling up to her, purring softly as if he were acting cute.

He had waited an entire day, but didn't feel impatient at all Watching Nyx sleep,

he found her utterly adorable and could never get enough of it

"Let's eat first," he said, using his soft paw to gently nudge Nyx, his tone full of concern. "You haven't eaten anything all day."

In the kitchen, Theon had prepared food, stored in an insulated box, ready to eat without needing reheating.

After living in a primitive society for a year and then returning to space, Nyx truly experienced the convenience brought by technology.

Theon's cooking skills were as excellent as ever.

I haven't had oatmeal in so long. Nyx inhaled deeply, savoring the fragrance of

the grains, her eyes filled with gratitude.

In the tribe, they always had roasted meat, and she was starting to smell like it

Luckily, she could occasionally eat wild vegetables and fruits to mix things up, which helped her bear it.

"Isn't there oatmeal over there?" Aurelius, now in human form, put his arm around

her waist, took the oatmeal bowl from her hands, tested the temperature, and blew on it to cool it before feeding it to her. "What's that world like?"

Not even a simple wish like drinking oatmeal could be fulfilled. He thought Nyx

must have suffered a lot.noveldrama

His jealousy and irritation faded a little, replaced by a sense of concern. Aurelius furrowed his brows. "Didn't Zayne take care of you?"

"How could that be?" Nyx was confused as to why he thought that, quickly defending Zayne. "Zayne took good care of me

“Zayne and I lived in a primitive tribe, and the conditions were limited," she said

as she ate, explaining life there.

She talked about daily life in the tribe, the snow disaster migration, and then the

Grand Trade Market.

The reason she couldn't get oatmeal was because they couldn't find the material.

It wouldn't be fair to blame Zayne for that.

He had done his best for her within his capabilities

Aurelius listened patiently, not interrupting. Only when Nyx stopped, tired of

talking, did he softly ask, "What about that tabby cat?"

06:27 Tue, 11 Mar

He thought, "Wasn't it Zayne's lack of care that gave other people the chance to

step in? From what Zayne said, "they" seems to be more than just one rival:

The thought of various young males surrounding Nyx, flattering and trying to win

her over, made Aurelius keep his expression neutral, but his spoon almost cracked under his fingers.

He thought if he were there, he wouldn't let Nyx be charmed by those other little

cats and dogs

"Lila?" Nyx chuckled dryly a few times, surprised he was still thinking about this. "You already asked Zayne, didn't you?"

"Yeah" Aurelius didn't deny it. "Do you like him? What do you like about him?" Whatever Nyx liked, he could become.

As a male of the cat species, he had a natural advantage over the others and could definitely imitate him well-except for

"I heard he's very young?" He glanced up, observing Nyx's expression.

"Yes, very young," Nyx's eyes curved into a smile. "Only in his teens, still a kid.

Not worthy of being a rival."

Even when Lila came to confront her angrily back then, she found her cute and immature, so she couldn't get angry

Lila wasn't bad at heart, and in her beast form, she was chubby and cute to touch. After a few lessons, she was much more! polite than before. "When I see her, I think of our Sera, Nyx chuckled lightly and playfully hooked Aurelius's finger with hers

Thinking of the kitten she had raised and fed herself, her maternal instincts kicked

in, and she couldn't help but feel a little extra affection for the teenage female.

"Hm?” Aurelius, grinding his teeth, suddenly looked up.

The tabby cat you're talking about, is she a female?" He froze for a while before

finally realizing he had been tricked by that guy Zayne.

In the past, the petty Emperor would have hated everyone close to Nyx,

regardless of whether they were male or female.

But after spending a whole day in his mind tearing apart his rivals, hearing that

there was no rival-just a little female that Nyx saw as a daughter-he sighted

heavily in relief, and joy surged in his heart.

"Of course, she's a female." Nyx vaguely realized there had been a

misunderstanding. "What did Zayne tell you?"
