Chapter 168: Lea’s Request
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lea did not walk too far off originally and was just hiding at the boundaries of Elvis’s territory. He could forcefully hear Gu ngng’s voice from this distance and even sll her unique scent in the air sotis. He gently stroked the beast-skin band that Gu ngng gave him to tie his hair up and upon hearing that ngng wanted to see him, he paused for a mont.
Then, he suppressed the urge to rush to her with all his might and jumped off from a tree slowly. He stood at the boundaries of Elvis’s territory and until Elvis agreed to Gu ngng’s request, he then left for the cave.
This place that he entered a countless number of tis made him feel a sense of unfamiliarity and expectation for the first ti. He did not know what Gu ngng wanted to tell him but to him, listening to her voice was great at the mont.
According to the rules, without Elvis’s consent, he could not enter the inside of the cave as he wished. So, Lea stood at the entrance of the cave and looking at the emptiness in front of him, he could hear Elvis tell Gu ngng clearly, “He’s here, I’ll ask him to co in.”
Gu ngng pulled Elvis back with her uncontrollably shaking hand. She made the decision to see Lea but when he was really here, Gu ngng lost the courage to do so. If... if she said that she was willing to mate with him, what would she do if Lea still wanted to choose Nina? If that was the case, she would not even know how to imagine it herself.
“Hmm?” Elvis could not understand what Gu ngng was thinking, so he looked at her while frowning.
“Lea, are you here?” Gu ngng grabbed onto Elvis’s arm tightly with both her hands, not letting him go out and did not let Lea co in either. She glanced at Sandy who was standing at one side the entire ti and Gu ngng finally garnered up courage to ask.
“Yes, I’m here.” Lea’s voice was almost invisibly shaking while his expression was still nonchalant. Nobody knew how much strength he was exerting to appear without effort in front of others.
“If... I say if, I’m willing to mate with you... will you....return to my side?” Gu ngng stared at the entrance of the cave intently and despite her sight not being able to see Lea’s expression or state, her gaze was still fixated at the center of the entrance. Her heart was raised to the tip of her throat and she swore that she was not even this nervous the day her high school results were out.
Lea remained silent. The news of Gu ngng being willing to mate with him gladdened him and just two tis of this stress made it hard for him to breathe.
“ngng,” Lea’s voice was low and husky. At this mont when nobody was looking, he kept that refined smile of his for the first ti and replied discreetly with the most solemn expression while frowning, “I can die in the battle of defending you but I’m unwilling to see you receive any form of hurt before I die.”
Gu ngng was taken aback, clearly not understanding what Lea ant. She looked at Elvis out of instincts and realized that he was just frowning and not saying a word. She turned her head to look at Sandy on the other side and Sandy was just waving her hands, signaling her to listen to Lea’s words.
Lea’s hearing was very sensitive and he could clearly feel Gu ngng’s state in the cave. So, he paused for a mont to give her ti to think it through and cool down.
Until Gu ngng’s breathing and heartbeat beca stable again, Lea then opened his mouth to continue, “The Beast World is extrely dangerous. I don’t have the capability to protect you on my own. If you care for as well, please accept the rules on this Beast World and start a strong family. So that I have family mbers whom I can rely on and need not worry that my partner will be hurt before I die or don’t receive anyone’s protection after I die.”
