Chosen Mate Of The Beastmen Empire novel Chapter 379

Chapter 379

“Quick, someone!” If the first call was casual, the second one from Nyx was clearly urgent and serious, as if danger was near. 

Outside, hurried footsteps echoed as the patrolling guards rushed to the scene. 

Hearing the approaching noise, Banon froze, as if struck by lightning. 

He suddenly realized that his actions had been sneaky and underhanded. If the Duke’s Mansion people caught him, not only would it be hard to escape, but he would also lose all face. 

The orange cat, who had just suffered a defeat, could no longer think about revenge. Covered in wounds, he quickly turned and fled, moving as fast as he could. 

His speed was so fast that Nyx didn’t react in time, but the little white cat, with sharp eyes, shot forward like an arrow, landing from above and stepping firmly on the orange cat’s tail. 

“Yowl!” Banon cried out in pain, losing all dignity. 

As the guards entered at Nyx’s call, they were greeted with the sight of the white cat, who had the domineering dark hair symbol on his forehead. 

He stood tall, full of authority, his fur shiny and healthy, almost glowing, no longer resembling a mere beast, but the king of all animals. The orange cat, who had been subdued beneath him, appeared much rounder and bulkier in comparison, but cowered like a mouse. 

The scene left everyone stunned for a moment, but after the initial awe, confusion and doubt followed. 

The fully armored guards, with swords strapped to their sides, vigilantly scanned their surroundings. They found nothing unusual in the study and looked at Nyx in confusion. 

They thought, ‘Did the lady call us here to handle these two cats fighting?‘ 

When they heard Nyx’s urgent call, they thought someone had infiltrated with spies or assassins, disturbing Nyx in the study. They had prepared themselves for a fierce battle, only to be confronted with this. 

The contrast was so great that the leader of the guards couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh, letting out a breath of relief. It wasn’t a big deal after all. Better this than a real crisis. 

Everyone in the mansion knew that Nyx was the one closest to Nyx’s heart. She was treated as delicately as if she were a fragile treasure. Nothing was more important than ensuring her safety and peace. 

While the animal fightings weren’t something to be alarmed about, the cats with sharp claws and wild tempers could indeed be dangerous. 

A few guards cautiously approached and reached out to separate the fighting cats, to prevent them from accidentally harming Nyx in the heat of their struggle. 

“Wait,” Nyx spoke just as they moved, “The white one is mine.” 

She stepped forward, faster than the guards, and gently scooped up the fluffy Cotton Candy. Aurelius, whose aura nad been as fierce as a tiger, immediately melted into a puddle, his tail curling around Nyx’s slender wrist as he nuzzled her chest with his cute face. 

Nyx could easily guess what he was thinking. 

He was trying to act cute and win her over, hoping she’d forget the ferocity he’d displayed earlier during their fight. He likely also had the intention to assert his dominance, declaring to everyone present–and to the orange cat–that he was her favorite little kitten.

“The most comming little kitten in the world, as always; she thought, as she couldn’t help but chuckle, rapping his nose lightly. 

Seeing the intimate interaction between the two, no one doubted their master–pet relationship. Some of the bolder yards even dared to flatter, “As expected of the lady’s car, truly quite intelligent? 

“Yes,” 

“It only recognizes the lady as its master” 

“Who would have thought a cat could be so smart and loyal?” 

Amid the lively chatter, Banon sat frozen on the floor, his expression vacant, his head tilted back as if he had lost his soul. 

From earlier until now, everything that had happened felt like the most absurd and nonsensical nightmare. He couldn’t believe his eyes of cars. 

His Majesty is willingly acting as a pet to a subject’s wife? he thought. No matter how much he despised and belittled this younger brother of his, he never imagined such a ridiculous thing 

And then there were the guards‘ attentive and respectful behavior towards Nyx–Banon’s gaze trembled. 

He thought, ‘Nyx is not the helpless woman neglected by her husband… She is clearly an evil cloaked in human skin. Aurelius and Erik have both been enchanted by her. Even 1, a man who has slept with countless women, have just fallen into her trap, seduced by her allure. 

The more he thought about it, the more he was convinced of this. Cold sweat broke out over his body as his mind raced, and he lowered his head, not daring to look at her graceful figure any longer. 

Nyx, unaware of the tangled thoughts in his mind, didn’t care. She turned and ordered, “Catch that cat and follow me.” 

A large group of guards, with great authority, escorted the orange cat, ensuring it had no chance of escape. 

Banon, being held by the scruff of his neck, gave up on struggling. He closed his eyes and played dead, not wanting to see the mocking expression on Aurelius’s face. 

In the banquet hall, no one spoke, only the occasional clinking of bowls and fork broke the silence. The vibe was restless and odd. 

The prince had yet to return, and his attendants couldn’t help but worry, trying hard to hide their concern, but each of them was visibly uneasy. 

The few confidants who knew Banon’s plans were especially restless. 

They thought, Why hasn’t the prince returned yet? Is the discussion with Nyx not going well? Is the woman refusing to cooperate? Or has something gone wrong? 

After all, this was the Duke’s Mansion, enemy territory. While the prince had the advantage of his beast form, acting alone was still fraught with danger. 

Some of them couldn’t sit still any longer and glanced at Erik. He sat composed in his seat, calmly serving himself if he knew nothing, yet there was an air about him that suggested he was in full control of the situation. 

Just then, loud footsteps were heard from outside. 

Irink, as 

The first thing everyone saw was a woman’s figure. Draped in a magnificent robe and exuding brilliance, her presence alone made it clear she was someone of high status. 

The moment he saw her, Erik’s usually calm and composed expression finally cracked. He stood up quickly, hurrying toward Nyx. “Nyx”

“What are you doing here?” He grabbed her hand, anxiety clear in his voice. “Has something happened?”

He didn’t want Nyx getting involved in the mess with Banon, and Nyx herself disliked the deceptive, hypocritical social occasions. They had agreed that she wouldn’t need to appear as the lady of the house today, and he would handle everything on his own.
