Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO

Gu Mengmeng looked up expectantly.

Not know what else to do with her, Elvis swiped her little nose. “You can listen to my story but you cannot become too sad. All that suffering contributed to me being able to meet you. If you pity me… I will become very pathetic.”

Gu Mengmeng pursed her lips and nodded.

Elvis continued. “When only one wolf was left in each of the three pits, some people came over again. However, they did not come to feed us but to fill up the pits. They repeatedly threw rocks in, which bashed into us as we were completely defenseless. The amount of space left to maneuver about in the pit became smaller and smaller, while they also stacked rocks at the side to make the pit opening higher and higher. The narrowing space had us all in a panic—we dug deep grooves into the sides of the walls with our bare claws… until one day, the huge rocks stacked by the side of the pit opening suddenly collapsed inwards. We were forced to a corner to avoid the falling rocks. Making a split-second judgment, we quickly clambered up the piled up rocks and escaped the pit.”

“Of the three pits, only two wolves escaped with their lives. The last one… was completely smashed and buried under the pile of rocks.”

“And things have yet to come to an end… it was just the beginning.” Elvis’ gaze gradually drifted and he pointed at the wide space outside the three pits. “The other wolf and I viewed each other as enemies. In our eyes, we were just food for each other. By then, any brotherly love… had long been eradicated.”

“He had suffered more serious injuries than me from the rocks. Hence, I became the final survivor.”

“In the years before I met you, I had repeatedly pondered… I should never have resisted, I should have just let him eat me? Such a disgusting and meaningless life, no harm in letting him have it. But now… I feel really lucky for my crazed desire to survive then. Thankfully I survived, no matter how terrible the process was, as long as it was for you… it was worth it.”

Gu Mengmeng’s hands were trembling, as she pursed her lips in silence.

Elvis hooked Gu Mengmeng’s chin, his gaze as deep and profound as the great blue ocean. “You promised not to pity me.”

Gu Mengmeng lowered her head and smiled. With the gentlest voice, she said, “I am just very touched. To meet me… you did something so brave.”

“Brave? Ha, you are always able to think of some nice way to describe ugliness. But I like it. ” Elvis kissed Gu Mengmeng on the lips. It was a mild, sweet kiss, without any lust but full of love and tenderness.

Gu Mengmeng indicated that Elvis should continue his story, at which he felt rather exasperated. He really didn’t think that such matters from the past were worth talking about. It was not as if they were any brave deeds.

But he must admit that regardless of how meaningless those memories were to him, he felt an unprecedented sense of lightness in his heart after sharing them with her.

It was as if the garbage from those memories were being gradually cleaned out with every word. His whole heart started to glow.

Smiling, Elvis tried his best to talk about his brutal past in a light tone. “Having become murderous and bloodthirsty, I was thrown into an underground wolf cave. At that time, I was about the same age as Jialue and the rest now. Hunger, pain and fear—they were all I had then.”
