260: Chapter 260 You Want to Be My Beast Husband Too?

Chapter 26: Do You Also Want to Be My Beast Husband?

Bai Wanwan looked up and saw a dark face; the features were vaguely familiar, yet something seemed off.

“Shh, don't make a sound,”

Warm breath brushed against her ear, sending a shiver through her.

“Unless you want me to take you away right now, ensuring you never see your dear Beast Husbands and The Cubs again.”

Roger!

She finally recognized who the owner of this voice was.

Bai Wanwan’s pupils constricted, and her heart nearly leaped out of her chest.

She had almost forgotten about this Male, thinking he had long since died in the ice and snow.

He wasn't dead!

But what did he come looking for her for?

Instinctively, she began to struggle with all her might.

But Roger’s strength was staggering. His chest was pressed tight against her back, allowing her to clearly feel his powerful heartbeat and the lines of his hard muscles.

“It seems you forgot what I just said in the blink of an eye.”

Bai Wanwan froze, glaring at him fiercely.

The Male looked down and, instead of getting angry, he seemed almost nostalgic.

His fingertip brushed the corner of her eye. “That’s right. If you didn’t look at me with those eyes, I wouldn’t be used to it.”

Bai Wanwan grew anxious. In the past, Yan Lie would have surely noticed something was wrong by now.

But there was an event in the Tribe tonight, and the commotion masked the subtle movements in the woods.

“Wan Wan...”

Yan Lie’s voice called out from outside the woods.

Bai Wanwan felt the Male’s arm tightening its hold on her.

Secretly, Bai Wanwan felt a surge of joy. She hoped Yan Lie would quickly realize something was wrong and come in to investigate.

“Answer him,” his canine teeth lightly grazed her sensitive earlobe. “Tell him you’re fine.”

Seeing that Bai Wanwan didn't respond, his long arm pulled her even tighter, pressing her slender waist against him.

“If you don’t answer, I’ll take you away immediately. He alone can’t stop me. By the time your other Beast Husbands catch up, do you think I’ll have already taken you out of the city?”

Yan Lie called out once but received no response. Frowning, he called again, “Wan Wan...”

“Remember my words.”

After Roger’s warning, the hand covering her lips slowly loosened.

In that instant, Bai Wanwan’s mind raced with possibilities.

She didn't want to gamble; if she lost, she would be taken away by him again.

In any case, she needed to appease Yan Lie for now so she could figure out what Roger’s goal was.

Bai Wanwan took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound normal. “Wait for me a little longer.”

Hearing Wan Wan’s reply, Yan Lie pulled back the foot he had just stepped forward with.

He knew Wan Wan didn't like them getting too close, so he waited quietly again.

“I’ve done as you asked. You can say directly what it is you want.”

The tense atmosphere eased slightly, and the sweet fragrance at the tip of his nose caused his tight muscles to slowly relax.

The moment he had seen her from a distance just now, he thought his eyes were playing tricks on him.

He blinked three times before he was certain it really was Bai Wanwan.

She seemed even more beautiful now, more so than any Female he had ever seen.

She also affected his nerves more than any other Female. Just thinking about her made him grit his teeth in hatred, yet he was also jealous that her Beast Husbands could possess her entirely.

Now, with her soft body in his arms, he felt an uncontrollable impulse.

His breathing became hot and heavy.

“What do I want? Because of you, my entire Caravan was reduced to ashes. Tell me... how are you going to compensate me?”

Although he later found some of his men who had escaped, the loss was still immense.

His voice was sinister, making Bai Wanwan’s skin crawl. She gritted her teeth and asked, “Did I force you?”

Under the moonlight, a trace of ferocity appeared in Roger’s eyes.

Bai Wanwan was originally angry, but as she looked at his face, she suddenly felt something was off.

His ordinary features were masked by his dark skin, yet there seemed to be slight differences from before.

However, judging by the voice, she was certain it was Roger.

On that excessively ordinary face, his eyes were quite beautiful, with a deep, inseparable inkiness in the depths of his pupils.

A strange sensation flickered through her heart, but she didn't have time to catch it.

“Bai Wanwan, do you really hate me that much?” Roger’s voice sounded like he was speaking through gritted teeth.

Just then, Yan Lie’s voice came in again, “Wan Wan?”

Bai Wanwan took the opportunity to turn her head and respond, then fixed her gaze back on Roger.

She thought back to that time; if it hadn't been for him, she and The Cubs might not have been found safely by Zhu Xiu.

Later, it was also because of her that he had been seriously injured by Zhu Xiu.

The loathing she felt for him had actually faded quite a bit.

However, he knew of her identity as the Sacred Female.

Her mind continued to whirl, and then she suddenly flashed a bright smile at him. “Could it be... that you also want to be my Beast Husband?”

Seeing her smile, Roger’s eyes instantly darkened. Before he could speak, Bai Wanwan continued with a look of regret:

“But what can I do... I only like handsome Males. Your face alone destines us to never be together.”

“You don’t like me because of this face of mine?”

Roger’s voice was filled with a strange emotion as he stared intently at her.

Bai Wanwan, however, raised her hand, her lily-white fingertips brushing across his dark, ordinary face.

“I’m just teasing you. Actually, since you saved me last time, I’ve been worried about whether you were still alive. Seeing that you’re doing well now, I can rest easy.”

Her wrist suddenly tightened as Roger stared at her with burning eyes. “You were really worried about me?”

Bai Wanwan’s expression remained unchanged as she looked into his eyes, as if her gaze were filled only with him.

“Of course it’s true. Don't pinch me so hard; you’re about to break my waist.”

Roger’s brow furrowed slightly, but he didn't let go immediately.

Bai Wanwan softened her voice even more. “Loosen up a bit!”

Her voice fell upon his ears like a feather brushing against his eardrums, tickling all the way to the tip of his heart.

His hand unconsciously loosened its grip.

“If you keep holding me like this, Yan Lie will find out. Let go and let me go back first...”

The corner of Roger’s mouth curled into a mocking sneer. “Weren't you just worried about me? You’ve shown your true colors as soon as you finished speaking. Are you trying to shake me off and leave with your Beast Husband?”

“What nonsense are you talking about? I’m clearly worried you’ll be discovered. If that happens, you’ll be driven away by them. Do you want to be kicked out as soon as you’ve arrived?”

Roger stared into her eyes and asked, “Then do you want me to be driven away?”

Inside, Bai Wanwan was nodding like a chick pecking at grain, but her face wore a smile. “I don't. But I really have to go now, or else they’ll come looking. Aren't we in the same Tribe now? You can see me whenever you want.”

Just then, Yan Lie’s voice came from outside again, “Wan Wan...”

This time, Bai Wanwan didn't respond; she only looked up at Roger.

Roger stared back at her in silence, his hand still firmly gripping her slender waist.

The two of them were very close, their breathing almost audible to one another.

In the end, however, Roger released his hold. “I’ll believe you one more time.”

Bai Wanwan felt a wave of relief, but she nodded with a smile on her face. “Mm, then I’ll see you next time...”

With that, she walked out with feigned composure, responding to Yan Lie’s voice as she went.

Only when she was close to Yan Lie did she rush up to him. “Yan Lie...”
