Chosen Mate Of The Beastmen Empire

"Nyx. I'm also called Nyx." She dodged the difficult question and let out a small breath of relief, returning to the main topic. "I have very little memory. I've been in a fog for many years, and I can't remember most things, but I still remember a little about medicine."

She grabbed a handful of herbs and began sorting them into piles by type, pointing to two of them. "These two are antagonistic to each other, and taking them together over time will lead to chronic poisoning,"

After thinking for a moment, she added, "You can take it to a trusted doctor for verification."

She observed Pale Wolf's expression and felt that he probably believed her. Taking advantage of the moment, she continued, "Can I take a look at your leg injury? Maybe I can help alleviate it."

Considering that so many imperial doctors couldn't treat it, she didn't promise that she could fix it completely, not wanting to give him false hope.

Upon hearing Nyx mention his leg injury, Erik immediately became tense.

His expression grew serious, and his muscles tensed as if he instinctively tried to avoid it. He fell silent and didn't speak.

Time ticked by, and Nyx began to feel a little anxious.

It seemed she had been too rash.

Her identity was already suspicious, and the leg injury was a sensitive topic. Even though Pale Wolf had just barely believed her fabricated story, hearing that she wanted to look at his injury might make him wary again.

She understood this logic, but she couldn't wait any longer.

Previously, she hadn't known about the enemy, and was planning things carefully, but this box of medicine had given her an intense sense of danger.

The leg injury was a weakness, and the poison in Pale Wolf's body was also a weakness. If it wasn't treated soon, someone who wanted to harm him could take advantage at any time.

Nyx furrowed her brows in anxiety. "You..."

If he didn't trust her, he could have someone who understood medicine supervise her.

Before she could finish, Erik seemed to have finally made up his mind. He gritted his teeth and nodded. "Okay, you can... look."

"But, I have... one condition," nervous, he stammered, his head lowered, his hands clenched into fists.

Nyx was slightly surprised. "What is it? You say it."

She didn't expect this dumb Pale Wolf to learn to negotiate with her. Truly, he was making progress.

She didn't think he would ask for anything unreasonable, so she relaxed and propped her chin up as she looked at him.

However, Erik still looked tense and uneasy, unable to sit still.

"My... leg... is scary... and ugly," after hesitating for a while, he finally spoke in a stutter. "After you... look at it, you... can't... dislike me."

After saying this, it seemed as though he had exhausted all his courage. The once confident Erik now lowered his head, looking like a little dog waiting for judgment. If he had a tail, it would definitely be between his legs, no longer wagging.

Nyx was stunned, thinking, "That's your condition?'

Seeing the dejected Erik, a sense of sorrow and sympathy began to stir in Nyx's heart. She reached out and ruffled his hair in a comforting manner, trying to soothe her self-conscious mate.

"How could I dislike you?" She softened her tone, pulling Pale Wolf into an embrace, gently stroking his hair and back, as though calming a beast. Suddenly, she had an idea.

She leaned close to his car and whispered softly, "The reason I wanted to marry you is because I borrowed a corpse to come back to life."

It was as if Erik had been injected with adrenaline. His previously gloomy aura suddenly disappeared, and he sat up straight, exclaiming, "Really?"

He thought, 'Since she could already be reborn, why would she need to borrow a corpse to return to life? Could it really be because she wanted to marry me? With this, Nyx's unusually warm attitude toward me from our first meeting suddenly makes sense-

The original Nyx didn't like him, but the current Nyx liked him. Once this realization entered his mind, it became impossible to get rid of.

Erik was so excited that his mind went dizzy, and his face turned bright red.

As Nyx took advantage of the situation to pull down his pants, she half-lied and half-jokingly said, "Of course it's true. You're my fated mate, my destined one. That's why I gave up the chance to be reborn, just to be with forever."

you

With each word she spoke, Erik's gaze brightened more and more, completely absorbed in her sweet words.

When all his pants were pulled down, and a cool sensation ran through his legs, he suddenly snapped back to reality, his face turning so red it seemed like it might bleed. "N-No, it's too fast..."

They had just started to understand each other, and it was still daylight. 'Does it really need to go this fast?' he thought.

Nyx, who had been leaning over to examine his injured right leg, looked up in confusion. She noticed the situation in that area just in time and was momentarily speechless.

She hadn't done anything yet. She had merely comforted him by patting his head and back, saying a few soothing words. Pure and innocent love, and yet it had such an effect.

An eighteen-year-old male as Erik was really lacking self-control.

Nyx shook her head, clicking her tongue. She gave Pale Wolf a pitying glance. "You should hang in there for a bit."

She hadn't expected him to admit it in front of her, revealing one of a man's most embarrassing flaws. 'He must have felt really insecure and upset inside, right?' she thought.

Having explained her medical skills, Nyx no longer hesitated. She raised her hand to feel Pale Wolf's pulse, analyzing it quietly for a moment, her brows furrowing in confusion.

She couldn't detect any issues from his pulse, and his leg didn't appear problematic either. She was stumped for a moment, unable to pinpoint the problem, but she did feel he was a bit too agitated and overheated.

"It's okay," Nyx carefully chose her words to comfort her mate. "You're still young, so don't rush."

She still felt that Pale Wolf's body couldn't have a major issue, and she was confident it could be healed.

Erik didn't dare look up, his voice barely audible, "Mm... I'm not in a hurry."

He had only just realized that Nyx was simply checking his leg injury, and it was

his own thoughts that were inappropriate,

thinking too much.

Extreme embarrassment made him no longer care whether his grotesque leg injury would be rejected. He just wanted to cover up the embarrassing situation he couldn't control.

Grabbing a piece of clothing to cover himself, he awkwardly froze for a moment before gradually recovering, lifting his head slightly and focusing on Nyx's hair. Vaguely, he could feel her breath lightly brushing against his leg, causing a tingling sensation along his spine that spread to his entire body.

Erik couldn't help but tilt his head back, lost in thought.

"Are you afraid of monks or priests?" he suddenly asked, trying to distract himself.

"Hm?” Nyx, who had been focused on studying his leg injury, was caught off guard by the question and shook her head. "No, I'm not afraid."

She wasn't really a ghost, after all.

That brief hesitation, however, seemed to Erik like she was pretending to be calmnoveldrama

and lying

He opened his mouth to reassure her, but felt that words of comfort wouldn't be enough. The comforting words were on the tip of his tongue but didn't come out.

Nyx didn't notice anything unusual and didn't spare any thought to what Erik might be thinking

Her entire focus was on his leg injury.
