Chapter 689: I Am Gradually Losing Control Of Myself
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was like a graduation ceremony…
Gu Mengmeng was extremely tempted. Her children had been training resolutely everyday and they had not been back for dinner the past few nights. Instead, they had been out eating their hunted prey with Burke. This made Gu Mengmeng very unhappy, as if her own children had been s.n.a.t.c.hed away. However, she could not force them to stay by her side. They already had their own minds and had the ability to judge for themselves who to hang out with.
Lea came up and clutched Burke’s neck. His nails extended slowly, pinching against Burke’s flesh. Blood snaked down Burke’s neck and dripped onto the ground.
“Leave quietly before I kill you.”
Burke showed no fear but looked calmly at Gu Mengmeng. He completely disregarded Lea’s threat.
His att.i.tude successfully incited Lea and his fingers tightened around Burke’s throat like an iron vise, squeezing tighter and tighter, inch by inch.
Burke’s face had turned red and his eyeb.a.l.l.s were bloodshot and bulging. Nevertheless, he just stood there clenching his fists and resisting the instinctive urge to flee or retaliate.
Fleeing would mean giving up, while retaliating… even if Gu Mengmeng accepted him, he would never be able to get along with Lea in the future.
Gu Mengmeng liked Lea so much that he could not afford to get on his wrong side.
Gu Mengmeng hurriedly jumped down from Elvis’ arm and charged into Lea. She had her back towards Burke and didn’t even glance at him.
She gazed up at Lea with limpid eyes. “I want a hug.”
Lea lowered his head and his jealousy dissipated at Gu Mengmeng’s coquettish manner. He gradually drew back his hand, morphing it into a fox’s paw before morphing it once again back to human form, to get rid of all traces of blood.
He carried Gu Mengmeng and turned to walk away without another look at Burke.
After walking to a far enough distance such that no one else could eavesdrop on them, Lea finally leaned against a tree with Gu Mengmeng in his embrace. He slowly closed his eyes.
Lea’s big tail curled around Gu Mengmeng’s waist as the side of her face pressed against his chest. His chin rested lightly on the top of her head.
“I feel… I am gradually losing control of myself.” Lea’s voice held a tinge of fatigue and a sliver of frustration. “You are becoming increasingly important to me. My tolerance for the other males trying to get close to you has also become lower and lower. If this goes on, I cannot guarantee that I will stop my attack on Burke the next time he comes to invite you.”
Gu Mengmeng could also feel the recent changes in Lea. Although he no longer behaved with animosity towards Elvis, she could clearly see the anger in Lea’s face whenever Elvis was holding her.
This was why she had not been willing to accept two partners.
Not everyone could enjoy a blessed polygamous relations.h.i.+p.
Gu Mengmeng asked herself if she felt indebted to Lea and Elvis in terms feelings. That was why she was unable to bring herself to berate Lea or even leave him, even though that was what a female should do when a male behaved so badly.
“It doesn’t matter. We will reach Saint Nazaire tonight and Burke will leave then.”
