So long as it was Bai Qingqingâs request, Winston would complete the task to perfection, as though it was superiorâs order. Even if it was something as trivial as a bath, he would cleanse himself thoroughly. After wiping himself dry, he then climbed to the top story of the tree hole.
When Bai Qingqing saw that there wasnât any moisture on Winstonâs body, she had thought that he didnât bathe. But then again, thinking that he wouldnât lie to her, she didnât question him about it and merely lifted the blanket.
âCome over and sleep. Keep away the lights, will you?â
âMm.â Winston kept away the luminous balls, then laid down next to Bai Qingqing and pulled her into his arms in a perfectly natural manner.
The two of them drifted off to sleep with their arms around each other.
Having done the deed once with Winston, Bai Qingqing clearly felt that the child was more energetic. Hence, one day later, she took the initiative and asked to mate with him again. The latter complied without hesitation.
Curtis and Parker only returned to the village about half a month later, bringing back with them nearly a hundred females and five hundred wolf beastmen.
As for the thousands of snake beastmen, they could be disregarded entirely, because Curtis had chased them away the moment they reached the village.
However, a half-grown snake beastman didnât leave. With red and black snake prints on his body, he bore a great resemblance to Curtis. Though, his body length was only one-third of Curtisâs.
Ssss~ Curtis narrowed his eyes, killing intent evident in his eyes. âTo think you managed to sneak in.â
The little snake that was planning to secretly tail his father tensed up.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âEh?â Parker also caught sight of this little snake. His gaze shifted from the little snake to Curtis, before saying in a shocked tone, âIsnât this Qingqingâs baby snake? He grew so fast.â
Curtis restrained his killing intent and said coldly as he stared at the little snake, âIâll pretend I didnât see you this time. Donât appear in front of me again.â
The little snakes had yet to mature, so this one was probably just missing his mother, and not seeking her because he desired a spouse. Or else, Curtis couldnât guarantee that he wouldnât lay his hands on his offspring.
The little snake let out a hiss and fled in panic.
âDonât tell Snow,â Curtis said to Parker.
Eyes rolling about, Parker said roguishly, âDepends on my mood, I guess.â
Pa!
A golden-haired youth was sent flying away once more.
Parker crawled to his feet and stared at Curtis with clenched teeth. âIâll go back and tell Qingqing right away!â
With that, he transformed into a leopard and sprinted away.
Ssss~
Curtis, too, slithered towards the village.
When the duo rushed home, they saw that Bai Qingqing was taking her nap, the warm environment making her cheeks appear rosy and tender. It was a tranquil and beautiful sight, making two anxious hearts lower back to their original positions.
The village started buzzing with life. Winston cast one final glance at Bai Qingqing, before leaving the bed reluctantly to make arrangements for the village.
With great chemistry... or perhaps being unable to hold himself back, Parker immediately ran to the bed and took over Winstonâs job of warming up the nest.
An unfamiliar odor suddenly entered his senses, making Parker halt in his actions. He twisted his head to bare his fangs at Winston, letting out a growl as he did so.
Although he was mentally prepared for Qingqing to mate with Winston, he couldnât help feeling wretched when he sniffed it with his own nose.
In a rush to tend to the village matters, Winston went down the tree immediately. With him gone, Parker could only direct his anger at Curtis.
âThis is all your fault. If I was around, Qingqing wouldnât have chosen him.â Though his expression was ferocious, his voice sounded a little choked and aggrieved.
Curtis didnât refute that and merely coiled his body around his head.
Roar~
Upon hearing the commotion, the cubs ran to their daddyâs side and started licking his legs.
Now that the kids were around, the tree got noisy all of a sudden. Bai Qingqing mumbled something, then propped herself up and opened her eyes.
âCurtis? Parker?â
