Free Web NovelChapter 54: Chapter 52: Yue Ying Adores His Wife
Yue Ying flipped over, trapping her completely beneath him.
His warm palm cupped her slightly flushed cheek. His fingertips gently grazed her trembling eyelashes, then followed the line of her brow to her ear, where he pinched and toyed with her jade-like earlobe for a moment before slowly sliding his hand into her scattered black hair.
His gaze suddenly darkened. The tender look from just a moment ago was now a raging wildfire, scorching hot as if it would consume her.
He leaned in close to her ear, his voice low and husky. "Life is short. We should enjoy it while we can. Wife, are you sure you don’t want to try?"
Su Mo’s breath caught in her throat. Her heart trembled, and a trace of confusion flickered in her eyes.
’What the hell... I may have read plenty of smut, but I have zero practical experience! The books... never described in detail how seductive a Beastman in heat could be... The term "fox spirit"... it’s no joke!’
In that instant, a flash of intense, delighted surprise lit up the depths of Yue Ying’s dark eyes.
In almost the same moment, he was certain: his wife had no experience with passion or desire.
No matter who the person inhabiting this body was, or where she came from, her experience in the affairs between men and women was a complete blank slate.
She liked abs, but she had never enjoyed them.
This realization was enough to drive Yue Ying wild. He captured her endlessly struggling hand and pressed it firmly against his chest.
"What are you afraid of, wife? It’s not like I’m asking you to take responsibility for it. What’s the panic?"
Su Mo’s eyes widened. She opened her mouth... "..."
Before she could say anything, he leaned in to nuzzle her neck and sniffed lightly, murmuring in his low, husky voice, "Wife, you smell so good~"
"Um..."
She tried to pull him back to his senses, but Yue Ying freed a hand and placed it on her lips, stroking them gently.
The words Su Mo had yet to speak were silenced.
Then he looked up at her and smiled faintly. "Don’t say anything I don’t want to hear right now. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to hold on to this last shred of rationality..."
Su Mo looked at him with the startled eyes of a fawn, trying to tell him to calm down.
She knew that if a Beastman in heat didn’t control their passion in time, they could easily lose control, transform, and go berserk.
She didn’t dare provoke this fox, who looked extremely dangerous at the moment.
Her only option was to call for Little Nine in her mind, wanting to open the System Laboratory and take out a bottle of the new inhibitor she had developed a few days ago to soothe the fox.
But she called several times to no avail.
Su Mo was speechless. ’This damned system always flakes out at the crucial moment!’
Yue Ying had only meant to tease her at first, but heavens knew how tempting that faint, elusive scent on her body was when he held her.
He watched the expressions on her face shift again and again—from surprise, to a shy blush, to a hazy trance.
A strong, unfamiliar, and unprecedentedly extreme desire suddenly surged through his body.
He wanted to possess her.
To possess her completely, body and soul.
His heat had started early.
This was something Yue Ying hadn’t expected. After all, he had just been bluffing before, but now, a simple touch, a brief mingling of their breaths, had actually brought on his heat for real.
Perhaps his desire for her ran even deeper than he himself had anticipated.
Su Mo could feel the change in his body temperature, as if it were scorching her through their clothes.
She felt she was in great danger now.
The way Yue Ying stared at her was like a predator eyeing its prey...
She forced herself to remain calm and said, "Yue... Yue Ying... let me go first. I’ll figure out a way to help you..." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
Before she could finish, Su Mo felt a tickle on her neck.
His warm lips had descended upon it.
His suppressed panting sounded in her ear.
She would never know that at a time like this, her every move, even her very breath, was a silent temptation to him.
Su Mo struggled slightly, and he only held her tighter, the danger in his eyes deepening.
"Wife~ do you really dislike me...? Is it okay if you don’t have to take responsibility?"
Su Mo forced herself to stay calm and blinked. "Y-You... calm down..."
’Heavens above, someone save me! I don’t want to become a tool for him to relieve his urges during his heat...!’
A thread of composure returned to Yue Ying’s emotions, which had been on the verge of collapsing.
He turned her face and forced her to look at him.
His eyes burned with insatiable lust, but also with an incredibly fervent sincerity. "Wife, have you never once considered spending your life with a Beastman like me?"
Su Mo’s brow furrowed slightly. For a moment, she couldn’t answer.
She really had never thought about the future. It seemed that ever since she’d transmigrated into this book, the thing she thought about most was how to get rid of those villainous fiancés.
Or rather, the future she envisioned didn’t include any of those villains.
A flash of hurt crossed Yue Ying’s eyes. "The world says foxes are fickle, but did you know, wife, that once a Beastman like me chooses his wife, he remains faithful for life."
"..."
Most Beastmen were extremely loyal; Su Mo knew this.
But hadn’t he been trying to break off the engagement before?
As if seeing through her confusion, Yue Ying continued, "The past is the past. People’s minds are always changing. And you... aren’t you different from the you of the past?"
A flicker of surprise flashed in Su Mo’s clear pupils.
’D-Does he know something?!’
Yue Ying hid the turbulent undercurrent in his eyes. He took her hand, placed it on his chest, and said softly, "I adore you."
As if afraid she didn’t understand, he spoke again, enunciating each word. "Yue Ying adores his wife."
Shock, astonishment, and a hint of bewilderment flashed in Su Mo’s bright eyes.
’H-He wouldn’t... He wouldn’t lie like this just to trick me into being his release, would he...?’
Yue Ying’s gaze flickered. He lowered his head and caught her in an unexpected kiss.
’Sometimes... I really just want to crack open my wife’s little head and see what’s going on in there!’
’This blockhead... she’s so infuriating and amusing at the same time!’
’I don’t want to hear her speak, and I especially don’t want to hear her thoughts. Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll get so angry I’ll just keel over and die on the spot!’
He just wanted to punish her fiercely right now!
But every time his rationality was on the brink of losing control, he forcibly reined it back in. In the end, he couldn’t bear to hurt her in the slightest.
His kiss was gentle and lingering, yet it allowed no resistance.
After a long moment, he suppressed his nearly-collapsing emotions and looked at her, his eyes turbulent with hidden currents.
He patiently explained, word by word, "My heat started early not because I want to sleep with you, but because I want you to sleep with me."
"..."
Su Mo’s brain felt starved of oxygen, her thoughts struggling to keep up.
A moment later, she reacted. ’Don’t those two phrases mean the same thing? You sly fox...’
"It’s not the same!" Yue Ying cut off her thoughts through gritted teeth, patiently explaining between pants, "If I didn’t like you, I wouldn’t deign to be touched by you. But because I like you, my heart yearns for you."
"I was afraid you wouldn’t like it, so I carefully hid my own instinctual desires. I was afraid you wouldn’t like it, so I tried to restrain all my passion and suppress all my impulses."
"But now I’ve realized, the more I suppress it, the less you see my feelings. I don’t want to be ignored by you forever. I need your affection, and I desperately hope that you can need me, even if all you feel for me is driven by carnal, instinctual desire..."
