“I heard it only hurts when females do it for the first time. It doesn’t hurt after that,” Parker said as he grabbed onto Bai Qingqing.

  How could biting her flesh not hurt?

  In any case, Bai Qingqing didn’t believe him. She feared that Parker would suddenly pounce on her like how Cortis did and struggled to get off his body. “I don’t want to mate with anyone for the time being.”


  “Qingqing…” Parker was about to retort when Moore walked over to the shelter and grabbed his wrist tightly.

  “You’re going too far,” Moore stated in a monotonous voice, glaring at Parker.

  As Parker looked at Moore, who had three animal stripes on his face, he grew wary and secretly tried to take his hand back.

  However, Moore’s hand was as steady as a rock, and Parker could not budge at all. The atmosphere between the two suddenly became tense.

  Bai Qingqing took the opportunity to get up from between Parker’s legs and sit on the other side of the shelter.

  “I think we should focus on figuring out how to stop the giant beasts from chasing after us. How do we get rid of this smell?” Bai Qingqing’s voice broke the tense silence between the two. Moore rudely shrugged Parker away, then looked at Bai Qingqing with a poker face.

  “The smell of the beast king’s egg will naturally dissipate after a month.”


  Parker cast a sidelong glance at Moore. Then, in an attempt to suck up to her, he walked over to Bai Qingqing and sat down with his long and thick tail curled around her hand.

  “I knew it—how could there be a beast tide during this season? You stole the beast king’s egg and even hit Qingqing’s head with it. Do you know that you almost killed her?” Parker roared indignantly.

  Moore looked down at the ground, not saying a word.

  Bai Qingqing quickly tried to ease the situation. “But I’m okay in the end, aren’t I? If not for Moore, I’d still be with Cortis.”


  Parker’s tail tightened around Bai Qingqing’s hand, which had been placed by her side. His eyes turned red as he said, “If there was a risk of you dying, I’d rather you stay with that snake beastman and live a good life.”


  Bai Qingqing was surprised. She smiled and replied, “What matters is that I’m fine now. I haven’t eaten for a few days now. I’m starving. Can you find me something to eat?”


  Parker immediately agreed. “Okay, I’ll go right now.”


  Moore interrupted, saying, “I’ll go. I’m faster.”


  “I’ll feed my female myself,” Parker said. He then stood up and transformed into a leopard.

  Moore looked at Parker with contempt. “When you’re done climbing down the cliff, I would’ve already returned with food. Stay here and protect the female. I’ll go hunt.”


  Although Parker was indignant, he thought that what Moore said made sense. He anxiously dug into the ground with his hind legs, not saying a word.

  Bai Qingqing smiled at Moore and said, “I’ll have to trouble you again, then.”


  Moore glanced at Bai Qingqing before turning around and transforming into a black eagle. He then spread his wings and flew off.

  “Howl~” Parker turned around and pounced on Bai Qingqing. His limbs were placed on either side of her legs as he forcefully rubbed his head against her abdomen.

  Bai Qingqing couldn’t help but laugh. She poked Parker’s forehead and said, “You’re such a huge cat.”


  How could they copulate? Parker was like a man-child. He was too immature to marry someone.

  “Why don’t you be my older brother?” Bai laughed at herself and continued, “That makes it seem like I’m taking advantage of you. I eat your food and stay in your house, and I even sleep in your bed.”


  Parker sneezed, indicating that he wasn’t willing to do that. He then enthusiastically licked Bai Qingqing’s exposed navel to show her how fond he was of her.

  For some reason, Bai Qingqing was able to understand all of the leopard’s body language. She panicked slightly.

  Although it didn’t hurt when the leopard licked her abdomen, it felt itchy and caused Bai Qingqing to move away. Her heart ached upon seeing that Parker’s eyes were bloodshot. “You must be tired. Sleep for a bit.”
