Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO Chapter 500 - There Was an Engagement Between Us

Chapter 500: There Was an Engagement Between Us

Gu Mengmeng gently touched the little snow fox’s neck, as though thinking over something. She looked up at Cole and asked, “Where are my sons? Give them back to me.”
Cole was clearly stunned for a moment when he saw the little snow fox, but was soon back to normal, as though Gu Mengmeng’s hand that was strangling on the little fox’s neck did not scare him. He looked at Gu Mengmeng attentively and asked, “The little masters are safe, I can let you meet them anytime if you are willing to stay by my side.”
Gu Mengmeng looked down at the snow fox in her hand and said, “Are you in any position to negotiate with me… now?”
Cole smiled and said, “It’s been ages since I have reached the peak of the fifth-level, even if my partner dies, I won’t lose my life due to the mating contract. If you want to kill her with your own hands, I will just treat it as you are being jealous of having other females by my side. It seems like… a reward to me.”
Gu Mengmeng smiled and said, “The mating contract might not take your life, but it is enough to injure you heavily. By then, do you still think… you can beat Elvis?”
Cole did not take Gu Mengmeng’s threaten to heart and replied, “I have no problems with you killing Gillian, but I guess the one being reluctant would be… Lea.”
Gu Mengmeng raised her brow, turned to look at Lea and said, “Why? Your first love?”
Lea looked away awkwardly, discreetly glancing at Gu Mengmeng with the corner of his eye and he nodded almost unnoticeably. He said, “There was an engagement between us…”
Gu Mengmeng raised her head and Lea immediately added, “But, I never liked her. The engagement was based on the tribe rules, that the witch doctor must marry a female from the family of the tribe elder to strengthen the relationship between religious authority and political power.”
Gu Mengmeng did not ask further, she just smiled and said, “Don’t need to explain, I trust you.”
Lea’s smile became warmer, he hugged Gu Mengmeng by the waist and peaked on her face. Lea rubbed his forehead against Gu Mengmeng’s lightly and said in a low voice, “Mengmeng, I miss you so much.”
Gu Mengmeng patted on Lea’s back and said, “I miss you and Elvis too, but we have to deal with Cole and save the little wolves first.”
Lea nodded and his slender fingers turned into sharp claws directing straight at Gillian, as though he was trying to prove to Gu Mengmeng that he had zero feelings towards this little fox.
“Lea.” Gu Mengmeng stopped him, shook his head slightly and said, “It’s not my style to kill an unconscious female.”
Lea shrugged his shoulders speechlessly and said, “I’ll listen to you.”
Gu Mengmeng walked towards Elvis, hugged him and said, “It must have been tough for you all this while? I will make you delicious food for you to recover after we get our sons back.”
Elvis’s voice was a little coarse, he rubbed Gu Mengmeng’s head gently, hugged her into his arms and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Gu Mengmeng stood up straight facing Cole and said, “I would love to solve things with negotiations without physical fights involved. You and Elvis are both fifth-level orcs, although you are at a higher level than him, but who knows how much potential would Elvis show to protect me. At the very least, even if Elvis lost to you, I will kill that little fox to activate the mating contract to protect him without hesitation. By then, no matter how powerful a male you are, you would be left vulnerable to anyone.”
