Beauty and the Beasts

Chapter 61 - The Snake Beastman Publicly Displayed His Affection

Back then, Curtis didn't kill Bai Qingqing's former admirers as he wasn't completely sure if he wanted her to be his mate. He had planned to send her home if he didn't like her, so there wasn't a need to be ruthless.

B

ut now, he was seized with regret. Because he didn't get rid of this hidden danger, they had now attracted the attention of the eagle, putting Snow in danger.

What he couldn't stand the most was that she liked that leopard.

Bai Qingqing's heart was in her mouth as she listened to Curtis's tone.

Parker was so reckless. For goodness' sake, don't risk your life by coming over and getting into a fight with Curtis.

However, Parker wasn't as crude and reasonable as when he was in the village. Although he was seething with anger, he remained far away at a distance of a few hundred meters from them. He roared at Curtis, "The beast tide's coming this way right now. I'm here to protect Qingqing. Let's call a truce."

The murderous look in Curtis' eyes slowly faded. He didn't respond to Parker and instead retreated back into the gap between the boulders while carrying Bai Qingqing, somewhat agreeing to Parker's protection.

Bai Qingqing felt a huge sense of relief. Knowing that Parker was outside, she felt secretly happy.

Curtis' expression darkened. He grabbed Bai Qingqing's chin and forced her to look at him. "Your name is Qingqing?"

He was strong, so his rough grabbing caused her much pain. She murmured, "Yeah, my name's Qingqing. But you can call me Snow too."

Curtis' face brightened slightly, and he gradually felt happy. "All of them call you Qingqing?"

"Yeah." Bai Qingqing nodded honestly. She didn't dare to provoke an angry Curtis.

"Then, I'll still call you Snow, but I'm the only one who can call you that."

Despite feeling slightly weirded out, Bai Qingqing nodded and replied, "Whatever you say."

It was extremely quiet outside. All of a sudden, Curtis swung his tail outwards, flicked his tongue, and let out a threatening hiss.

Bai Qingqing looked outside as well. Then, she heard a roar come from the leopard's throat. "Howl!"

Parker had secretly moved closer towards them.

Bai Qingqing quickly shouted, "Don't fight! Parker, don't come any closer!"

Otherwise, Curtis will explode!

"Howl~" Parker let out an aggrieved howl, then paced back and forth on the rocky mountain. He eventually lay down behind a rock large enough for him to take shelter.

It was silent outside for a long time. Bai Qingqing felt relieved.

Curtis curled up his snake tail into a tight circle, then carried Bai Qingqing and said to her in an unusually soft voice, "Sleep on my body."
