Chosen Mate Of The Beastmen Empire novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42 

Even if Zayne didn’t speak, this obvious truth couldn’t be hidden. 

Nyx bent down and picked up the lonely little ball, 

The toy was still there, but the kitten was gone, 

‘Where did it go? Will it come back? Did it leave because it felt its life with me wasn’t as good as outside? Nyx’s eyes heated up, and she tightly clenched the little ball. 

The two males were flustered, unsure how to comfort her. Feliz, especially, was at a loss, having no experience in soothing a female. 

Zayne was quicker than Felix. He moved first to embrace Nyx, pulling her into his arms. 

He had known the cat wasn’t good, and sure enough, it had made Nyx sad. 

Zayne cursed silently and gently took the ball from Nyx’s hands, asking softly, “Do you want to ride a wolf?” 

A pet was nothing special; he could fill in. 

Without waiting for Nyx to nod or shake her head, he had already transformed into Snow Wolf, wagging his tail and bowing low in front of Nyx. 

Nyx instantly held back the tears that hadn’t yet fallen, staring at Snow Wolf in a daze. 

The white–furred giant wolf was doing its best to please her, and Nyx didn’t doubt that if she asked for a puppy, Snow Wolf would endure the shame and bark, playing the role of a little dog. 

As her mind connected Zayne and Snow Wolf, Nyx felt a strange ache in her chest. 

It was so unlike him, someone so mindful of his image, to go to such lengths just to cheer her up. 

Nyx couldn’t help but tightly hug Snow Wolf and took a deep breath. “Zayne, thank you.” 

Snow Wolf comfortingly nuzzled her, carried her on his back, and grabbed the ball to play catch in the yard. 

Felix observed the scene with a serious expression, taking a valuable lesson from Zayne–when it came to the female he adored, pride was the least important thing; a single smile from her was worth far more. 

He secretly took note of this. 

Snow Wolf was agile, and with one ball, he could come up with countless tricks, making Nyx laugh through her tears and lighten up considerably. 

She realized that Cotton Candy was a little cat she had picked up, perhaps not a stray, but a wild one. 

The outside world offered more freedom for the little wild cat, and roaming the streets might make it happier than being kept as a pet at home. 

Maybe one day, it would come back to visit her. 

Chapter 42 

Outside the Palace’s Royal Garden, tourists were taking pictures, posing with smiles, when they suddenly saw a white figu streaking across the lens. 

The tourist rubbed his eyes. “What’s that? 

Just as he wondered if his vision was blurry, the white thing had already dashed into the Palace. 

It was very familiar with the Palace layout, running straight to the area near the Crown Prince’s Palace. 

A palace guard spotted the White Tiger and gasped, “Your Highness?” 

His voice suddenly changed tone as the White Tiger snarled and charged toward him. 

The guard trembled as he collapsed to the ground, his eyes squeezed shut, his mind consumed by thoughts of impending doom. 

An eternity seemed to have passed, but the anticipated pain never came. 

Though the White Tiger exuded fury, it held back and didn’t harm anyone. 

It was thinking of Nyz. 

It needed to call for help to rescue her. 

The guard was clearly not the one the White Tiger subconsciously trusted. It strode around him and headed deeper into th Emperor’s quarters, only to be surrounded by several guards at the entrance of the Emperor’s bedroom, who dared to stop 

1. it. 

Not even the Emperor could approach Aurelius when he was in such a state. Reason abandoned him then, making him a serious threat. 

The commotion at the door attracted the Emperor, who was both surprised and pleased. “Aurelius?” 

Aurelius had actually come back home on his own. 

The White Tiger’s eyes brightened, eager to rush over and tug at his sleeve, hoping to persuade him to rescue Nyx. 

However, because it couldn’t speak, its actions appeared aggressive to those watching. 

“Apologies, Your Highness,” the Head of the Guards, helpless, could only apologize before shooting a tranquilizer dart. The moment the sound of something cutting through the air reached its ears, the White Tiger could have easily evaded it. But with its mind focused solely on rescuing her, its reaction was a fraction too slow, and it was struck by the tranquilizer. 

The White Tiger let out an angry, unwilling roar that shook the heavens, but it was no match for the powerful effects of the tranquilizer. 

In the moment its eyelids closed, a single large tear fell. 

Aurelius had been away for many days, and today he suddenly returned home to the Palace. When the Queen heard the news, she immediately came, looking at the unconscious White Tiger and covering her mouth with both hands. “Aurelius—” He finally returned. 

The White Tiger was isolated, only allowed to be visited from a distance to prevent harm. 

The Queen carefully inspected the White Tiger from head to toe, relieved to see that it had not lost weight or suffered any

injuries, evidently having lived well outside. 

“How long until Aurelius wakes up?” The Queen asked. 

The royal doctor respectfully replied, “About two hours” 

This powerful tranquilizer could make an ordinary person sleep for two days, but for the mighty White Tiger, it would only last two hours, 

However, to the doctor’s surprise, Aurelius woke up after just one hour, struggling to regain consciousness. 

The White Tiger slowly opened its eyes, momentarily confused. 

It shook its head vigorously, stood up, and looked down at itself. ‘Beast form? 

Its memory was still stuck a few days ago at the Crown Prince’s Palace. After thinking for a moment, it understood the situation. 

It seemed that it had lost control. 

Everything that happened during that time was blank, with only vague feelings left behind. 

As it desperately tried to remember, a sense of deep regret overwhelmed Your Highness, who let out a low, muffled growl, in intense pain, feeling that it had forgotten something very important. 

The White Tiger’s painful roar drew the attention of the guards.
