Chapter 1225: I Don’t Like People Threatening My Mother
“No need. We can settle things on our own.” Jialue stepped forward imperiously. “Also, my most venerable Beast King, I don’t like people threatening my mother… not even if you were just flirting.”
Yes, because of Cole and Chixuan, the four little ones were extremely sensitive about others using themselves to corner Gu Mengmeng. It was like a minefield with skull and crossbones symbols plastered all over—whoever stepped inside would be blasted to pieces.
Elvis was just flirting with Gu Mengmeng and didn’t think so much.
He was displeased at Jialue’s claim that he was threatening Gu Mengmeng. Even more vexing was the fact that although he could have easily annihilated Jialue—he was unable to harm even a single hair on him.
“That is best.” Elvis smirked. “I don’t want my sons to be useless b.u.ms. Needing to rely on their parents’ status and background to eke out a living in the Beast World.”
With that, he left carrying Gu Mengmeng.
Jialue and Jialue didn’t pursue them. They knew very well that they were now adult beasts. Under normal circ.u.mstances, beasts at their age would have already struck out on their own and no longer maintained relations with their mother and her family. They would be an independent ent.i.ty and completely responsible for their own life and future.
But Gu Mengmeng was different from the other females—she had given the four brothers a mother’s love and warmth, like large pair of gentle hands sheltering them. Now, they could not bear to leave her or stray too far off.
That was why they had chosen to settle down in a place that their mother would definitely return to. Here they stayed, waiting for their mother to come back, so that they could once again see her loving smile, her unwavering support and her self-sacrificing protection.
Nevertheless, they should also know their limits.
They could no longer willfully clamor around their mother like when they were little kids.
So when Elvis carried Gu Mengmeng off, they knew they should not go after them. They were no longer children living under the protection of their parents. They were no longer babies who could go whining to their mother after being bullied by Elvis and Lea. They were now strong sons who were going to stand beside their mother to help her hold up the sky.
After Elvis became a wolf king, there was one thing Gu Mengmeng was really unused to: no matter where he went, a pack of wolves would be following right behind…
How should she put it?
It was like being bringing your dog out without collar and leash. You would feel especially ill-at-ease.
After all, huskies were a breed well-known for running away.
Elvis pinched Gu Mengmeng’s cheek and turned her face towards himself. He said in a stern voice, “I will not allow another wolf to come into our family, and none of them have the guts to become a beast pet in the wolf king’s household. So there’s no need for you to look. If you like the beast form, I will morph for you. Mmm?”
Gu Mengmeng held her forehead, completely speechless.
After Elvis became a Beast King, his domineering side had been enhanced a bit too quickly.
He used to be rather quiet in the past, but was now rather glib.
It seemed like he had totally discarded the “debonair manners of a first partner”.
Although this felt pretty good as Gu Mengmeng rather enjoyed Elvis’ possessiveness—why was he treating her like some sort of pervert?!
Never mind if he was guarded against other beasts, but he was now wary of even your common wild animals?!
Gu Mengmeng placed two hands on Elvis’ shoulders and smiled. “Hubby, you are the great wolf king. I already have you as my partner, why would I fancy any other wolf? Am I right?”
Elvis’ lips curled up in a light smile as he nodded approvingly. “My Queen has good taste.”
