Parker glanced at Bai Qingqing’s foot and said disappointedly, “Curtis is still alive. I thought he was dead.” Sigh. I got so happy for nothing.

  She glared at him. “How can you say that?”


  The cubs curled up beneath the blanket cried out, having been woken up by the adults.

  Parker’s ears perked up, and his heart throbbed for some unexplainable reason. He glanced at the figures slowly wriggling underneath the blanket and asked, “What’s inside?”


  Bai Qingqing blushed and reached into the blanket to grab the cubs.

  “Your cubs. They were born yesterday,” Bai Qingqing said as she blinked nervously at him.

  Parker instantly felt his whole body stiffen, and his left chest throbbed so hard that his heart was about to leap out.

  “These…” Parker glanced at Bai Qingqing in disbelief and reached out to touch the cubs. “Our cubs…”


  “Look at you.” Bai Qingqing couldn’t help but chuckle. She reached out to wipe Parker’s face. “Why is there so much blood all over your body? Did you just eat?”


  “The blood’s Muir’s.” Parker reached out to pick up a bun-sized cub and turned it towards him. “You’re so little…”


  Can it grow up well when it’s so small?

  “It’s all my fault. I should’ve come earlier. You must not have eaten well,” Parker said, berating himself. “The children are so small, and you’ve become thinner too.”


  Bai Qingqing was stunned upon hearing that the blood on Parker’s body was Muir’s. She grabbed his hand and anxiously asked him, “What did you say? What do you mean the blood is Muir’s?”


  Parker’s expression became colder at the mention of Muir. He replied, annoyed, “It’s nothing. I just fought with him. Hmph. He’s lucky I didn’t bite him to death.”


  “Why? Why did you guys fight?” Bai Qingqing looked at him in shock.

  “He stopped me outside and refused to let me see you. Of course, I had to kill him. This is between us males, so you should stay out of it. Even if you accept him, I can’t just let him treat me like that,” Parker said unhappily.

  He glanced at Bai Qingqing’s body and asked her with uncertainty, “Did you mate with him?”


  Qingqing had been spending all her time with Muir. Given how soft-hearted she was, she could have already mated with him.

  Hmph. Sparing his life had its benefits-at least Qingqing wouldn’t be so angry with him that she would ignore him. And he already broke one of his wings, anyway. There was no way he could still act arrogantly around him.

  “There’s no way he would stop you outside!”


  Bai Qingqing was confused. Muir was such a considerate person. How would he do such an evil thing? That would make him completely different from the Muir she knew!

  Alva guiltily took a few steps backward. He was about to slip away when Bai Qingqing looked towards him.

  “Alva, did Muir tell you guys to stop my mate? Were you guys busy guarding against him?” Bai Qingqing asked aggressively.

  She had never spoken so curtly to anyone before. Alva glanced at her before quickly looking down and responding in a submissive, girl-like manner, “Mm.”


  “Don’t be mad, Qingqing. Aren’t I already here?” Parker threw the cub aside and hugged her.

  The young leopard panted upon landing on the soft animal skin. It didn’t make a fuss and instead walked two steps on its short, little legs before rolling down. Bai Qingqing casually caught it. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was off. “By the way, you said you thought Curtis was dead. Why?”.

  Upon recalling the strange sadness she felt more than a month ago, Bai Qingqing suddenly had a bad feeling. The details she previously failed to notice all began appearing in her mind. What was previously fuzzy memories suddenly became clear to her.
