Lea was stunned, he smiled in sadness and said, âWhat I want was just a little space by your side to guard you, thatâs enough.â
Gu Mengmeng turned around to look at Elvis and said, âHubby, I want to keep a vixen in our home, can I? I promised not to mate with him and I promised my love for you will not decrease... Like this, can you accept one more member in our house?â
Elvis walked forward, hugged Gu Mengmeng and said, âI have accepted him long ago, did you forget?â
Gu Mengmeng pounced into Elvisâs arms and murmured softly, âHubby, Iâm sorry, I am an easy woman after all.â
âXiao Meng, you are not.â Elvis held Gu Mengmengâs shoulders and said, âIâve been wanting to say something to you since long ago. Do you remember what Lea had said to you outside of the cave? He said he could die protecting you on the battlefield, but he did not want to see you getting hurt in any way before dying. My thoughts are the same. I can fight for you, I can die for you, but I donât want to see nobody protecting you after I died.â
Gu Mengmeng looked up at Elvis and said, âIf me accepting Lea as our family member could ease your worries and make you risk your life without any concerns during danger... Then I donât want him, I want you.â
Elvis was stunned, he said, âThatâs not what I meant, I just wanted to say... one additional person in the house taking care of you is a good thing.â
Gu Mengmeng clenched her fist, kept quiet and stared straight at Elvis.
Elvis hugged Gu Mengmeng into his arms, sighed and said, âI will never give up my life easily, you know how much I couldnât live without you. Donât worry, donât be scared, I wonât give up my position as the first partner to anyone else.â
Gu Mengmeng said, âPromise me.â
Elvis replied, âI swear to the Beast Deity, I will never leave you.â
Gu Mengmeng was satisfied and lowered her head.
Elvis supported Gu Mengmengâs shoulders, turned her around and carried her up the Platform of the Deityâs Punishment. He gave her a light push and said, âGo, Lea will really jump into the fire any later if you are not there.â
Full of remorse, Gu Mengmeng looked back at Elvis, but she still took the step forward, waved to Lea and said, âLea, I am here to bring you home.â
Lea froze, as though he could not believe what he had just heard.
âYou... You have forgiven me?â
Gu Mengmeng shook her head and said, âIn between us, you are not the one at fault. It was me not being used to the rules here, torturing myself, you and Elvis. My greatest concession is to make you my family member, give you love and care, admiration and reliance, but... I will not mate with you and breed children for you. The title of beast pet might become the disgrace of your entire life. Even so, are you still willing to stay by my, a selfish femaleâs side?â
Lea smiled and stumbled to hugged Gu Mengmeng into his arms. He felt his heart beating again, he said, âI have told you, your âselfishnessâ was something that I dream about in every sleepless night.â
It was the first time after their break up the Gu Mengmeng responded Leaâs hug, it was so careful, and she was struggling with conflicted thoughts.
But when her hands finally touched him, she felt assured all of a sudden.
She accepted Lea, but... the sky did not fall either.
âLetâs go home, Daddy Lea.â
âYes, as you wish.â
