Alexander Summers didnât go over immediately.
He laughed for a while, enjoying himself before heading leisurely to the kitchen.
Soon, Alexander returned carrying a thawed dead rabbit, picked up Purple in one hand and threw the rabbit into the glass box with the other.
Purple only felt her body suddenly airborne and then gently landing on the couch.
She couldnât help but think: Heâs so strong.
âIâve told you before, you need to feed it once a month. Youâve been slacking, havenât you?â Alexander pinched her nose and teased her.
Purple thought he was being unreasonable, âYour snake escaped, and you blame me?!â
âItâs our snake,â Alexander corrected her.
Purple didnât want to argue with him, clutching the little crow and speaking seriously, âIt wanted to eat the little crow. The feeding box isnât secure enough. You need to figure out a solution, or else weâll be on edge every day.â
Alexander dismissed her concerns, saying, âIt was just hungry. It hasnât eaten for a long time, and nobody took it out for a walk or gave it a bath. If it were you, could you bear it?â
Purpleâs face flushed, as Alexanderâs words seemed to accuse her of animal cruelty.
However⦠she didnât have any affection for Cleo, the snake. Fear would suffice; there was no room for love.
Purple turned to look at the glass box; Cleo had stopped trying to escape and was slowly swallowing the dead rabbitâ¦
Such a large rabbit filled the snakeâs mouth almost to the brim, bit by bit, swallowed in.
The sight of the snake feeding was brutal. Even though Purple knew the rabbit was already dead, she still couldnât bear to watch.
Alexander then thawed another rabbit and three chickens.
Cleo ate them all.
With its belly bloated, Purple watched with alarm, âIt eats so much!â
âWell, there was a long interval between meals,â Alexander said indifferently. âYou could feed it less, but when Cleo gets too hungry, itâll come out looking for food.â
Purple felt a chill in her heart and decided it was better to feed it more, make sure it was full!
Alexander found her alternating pale and green face amusing, and pulled her onto his lap. âYou didnât react much last time, I thought youâd gotten used to it. Are you still so scared?â
Last time, she had been forced to walk the snake, give it a bath and apply medicine⦠she had eventually grown numb to it.
But this time was different.
Back then, Alexander had been by her side, but today, she was all alone!
Could anyone not be afraid when facing a giant python, especially a hungry one?!
Purple pursed her lips and remained silent.
Such a response made her seem like she couldnât do without him. Purple didnât want Alexander to get the wrong impression.
Nor did she want to give him any satisfaction.
She struggled to get off his lap, but he held her tightly.
âLet go of me,â Purple tried to pry his arm off her. âMy mom could come back at any time.â
Alexander remained silent but finally released her.
Purple immediately put distance between them.
Alexander sighed softly, his tone tinged with a hint of melancholy, âIt would be nice if we could make our relationship public.â
He truly wanted to mark her from head to toe as his own.
Purple said, âAlexander, youâd better accumulate some virtue! Iâm only sixteen; people will find out not only about our premature love but also the incest between my brother and me. Do you want me to be drowned in spit whenever I step outside?!â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDonât talk nonsense.â Alexanderâs face turned slightly cold, as he disliked Purple describing their relationship in such an unpalatable way.
âSome things donât cease to exist just because we donât talk about them.. I have to study and make friends; I want a normal life!â Purple fretfully pulled at her hair, âAlexander, youâre making my life abnormal!â
