Chosen Mate Of The Beastmen Empire novel Chapter 148

Chapter 148 

If Jaws lost control, Nyx could escape. She tiptoed to the door and peeked outside. There didn’t seem to be any patrols. 

She quietly pushed the door open, but as soon as she stuck her head out, several guards emerged from the shadows. 

could slip out of this room, she had no idea where to find Kian. 

Nyx quickly pulled back inside, feeling helpless. E 

if 

If she tried to escape, it might provoke Jaws and lead to the destruction of Pale Wolf’s planet. 

Nyx rubbed her temples in frustration, stepping back and sinking to the floor. 

Before she could sit down, the python’s massive body caught her gently placing her back on the bed and pulling up the 

covers. 

Nyx turned away, ignoring him. 

For a long time, there was no sound. Curiosity got the better of her, and she glanced over to see the python quietly curled up, watching her intently, completely non–threatening. 

Nyx clenched her fists. She thought, ‘If I kill Jaws now, maybe I can escape without consequences. 

Coincidentally, Jaws hadn’t taken her Space Button, which contained a dagger Kian had given her for self–defense. 

Nyx sat up, pulled out the dagger, and aimed it at the python’s vital spot. 

The sharp blade gleamed brightly. 

Sensing danger, the python twitched nervously, backing away slightly. 

But it soon returned and pressed close to Nyx as if surrendering, its eyes showing a mix of obedience and vulnerability. 

Nyx’s hands trembled slightly, her resolve wavering. 

The out–of–control Jaws seemed like a clingy little animal, desperate for her affection, willing to endure even harm. 

She couldn’t bring herself to do it.

After much hesitation, Nyx sighed and put the dagger away, summoning her Soul Form instead. 

Under the glow of the small sapling, the black mist around the python began to fade. 

Jaws‘ expression shifted. He stared in awe at the radiant Nyx, who looked like a goddess descended from the heavens. 

Jaws studied Nyx for a long time, his thoughts racing, ‘Why has she saved me?‘ 

He didn’t speak, pretending to still be out of control as he coiled around her, quietly observing her reaction. 

Nyx’s expression remained unchanged, showing no fear or disgust as Jaws had expected. 

She wasn’t afraid of snakes, but after nearly being suffocated earlier, she wasn’t about to let the python cling to her. Calmly, she pushed him away. 

“Stay still. Behave,” Nyx scolded firmly. 

Her attitude toward Jaws wasn’t gentle, but she still focused on mentally soothing him. When she noticed some black mist lingering, she ran her hand over his scales.

The moment she touched him, Jaws shuddered, rolling into a tight ball in disbelief. 

Nyx clicked her tongue, frowning, “I told you to stay still.” 

Before she could finish, she was stunned 

to 

see the python transform into his human form, leaning over her. 

‘Since when has he recovered?‘ Nyx thought, surprisingly. 

Jaws‘ crimson eyes darkened as he leaned closer to Nyx, gently pinning her to the bed. 

“If I listen to you, what’s my reward?” he teased. 

Trapped under his imposing figure, Nyx was too nervous to speak. She fell silent. 

Jaws, pleased that Nyx hadn’t rejected his beast form, wasn’t bothered by her silence. After a moment, he continued, “How about I make you jewelry from my scales? You’d wear them, wouldn’t you?” 

He’d been secretly watching Nyx and knew she’d worn jewelry made from Seafarion’s scales during her broad thought stirred a possessive desire in him. He thought, ‘Crimson scales would complement her skin perfectly. 

Nyx avoided his gaze, pursing her lips in silent refusal. 

The standoff lasted a while. 

As Nyx remained silent, Jaws‘ expression darkened. “Do my scales disgust you?” 

He thought, ‘Why? Am I so much worse than that fish?” 

The 

He coldly pinched Nyx’s cheek, his tone icy. “If you’d prefer Black Mamba’s scales, I’ll strip them off and make you jewelry. You’d like that, wouldn’t you?” 

Nyx finally reacted. “No,” she whispered, her voice trembling. “I’ll wear your scales.” 

Facing the submissive Nyx, Jaws felt no joy or satisfaction. Instead, his anger only grew fiercer. 

He took a deep breath and forced a gritted–teeth smile. “Do you really like Black Mamba that much? Are you willing to do anything for him?” 

He thought, ‘That poor, down–and–out male, now a wanted criminal of the Empire–what’s it about him that makes Nyx go to such lengths? Is it because Black Mamba has desperately protected her? But now, he clearly couldn’t even protect her anymore. 

“Come on, let me show you how pathetic Black Mamba looks now,” Jaws said, easily suppressing Nyx’s struggles and picking her up without giving her a chance to resist.

He wanted Nyx to see with her own eyes 

that a 

useless Black Mamba wasn’t worth her affection. 

The lowest level of the starship was a prison. 

The entire prison was pitch black, with a chilling cold that seemed to seep into your bones from all directions.
