Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO

Panda Novel

Just when Gu Mengmeng wanted to gossip about Sandy and her new partner Berly, she saw another female walking in with all the males clustered around her in the crowd of beasts.

Gu Mengmeng’s mouth twitched and let out a cold laughter. She said, “After one winter, why did you look like you went for plastic surgery, while this one stilled looked as ugly and as fat as before?”

Sandy followed Gu Mengmeng’s look and glanced over, before twitching her mouth too. She said, “Every year she had been like this, god knows how many partners she had eaten this year round.”

Sandy’s words sent a shiver down Gu Mengmeng’s spine. She looked at Sandy as though she had encountered a ghost and said, “She… eat her partners every year?”

Sandy nodded and said, “Partners are just the back up food during winter to her. So she readily accepts any males that confess to her. But some males ended up in her stomach before even having the chance to mate with her. There, you see…”

Sandy did a head count as she pointed to Nina’s family, but Gu Mengmeng heard that she was not counting numbers, but names. After finishing the head count, she said, “Quentin and some first-level beasts that just joined Saint Nazaire last year are gone.”

Gu Mengmeng then looked carefully among Nina’s partners, sure enough, there were no eagles.

Although Gu Mengmeng could not recognize the males from their beast forms, the only eagle beast in Saint Nazaire was Quentin, in addition his size comparable to the one in ‘The Giant Eagle and Its Companion’ and the broken wings, she could tell him apart nonetheless. But after scanning around, sure enough she did not see Quentin.

Gu Mengmeng counted carefully again. Twenty-eight.

There were only twenty-eight of Nina’s partners left.

Gu Mengmeng said softly, “Elvis said that everyone in the tribe have to take part in the first hunt of the spring every year and nobody stays behind in the cave, is that true?”

Sandy nodded as an answer.

Gu Mengmeng asked again, “So all of her males are here?”

Sandy continued nodding.

Gu Mengmeng felt revolted, she managed to suppress the feeling and said, Elvis said that she had forty-three partners in total, now there are twenty-eight left, which means that she ate fifteen of her partners in this winter?!”

Sandy counter her finger and said, a little embarrassed, “I only knew that Nina did have forty-three partners, Lea counted it and it won’t be wrong. But how many are there now and how many are missing… I don’t know how to count and I can’t calculate.”

Gu Mengmeng patted on Sandy’s shoulders and said, “She is such a psychopath, why would there be males willing to marry her? Do they feel that their lives are too long and they no longer want to live on?”

Sandy smacked her lips and said, “Even though they knew that they might be her next meal, many males are still willing to trade their lives for the right to mate. After all, they feel their deaths are worthy if a complete female could give birth to a strong cub with him.”

Gu Mengmeng looked at her own husband and let out a cold laughter. Thinking about the attitudes he had towards their sons, she really could not agree to Sandy’s mindset.

Not every males regarded cubs as important, maybe… they just did not want to believe that another male’s tragedy would happen to them again, always imagining that they were the special one, the only one, the one that Nina cared about, the important person to her. But they did not the old saying of ‘mountains and rivers can be changed but not a person’s nature’, or simply, ‘a leopard never changes its spots’. Nina’s personality was selfish and distorted, the hottest love would not heat up her heart that was as hard as a huge rock.
