The following morning, Aria and Muir resumed their flight towards the beast city. After about 3 hours of flying, Muir spotted a village. Prior to reaching the village, Muir descended and sought Aria's opinion. "Do you want to stop at the nearest village?" he asked, handing her a water.


"Sure, if they let us in," she expressed concern about being turned away if the villagers were unfriendly.


"We'll try. Just stay behind me while I speak to the guard," he assured her, taking her hand as they approached the village entrance, where two guards stood. As Muir neared them, they became wary.


"Stop there!" the big man commanded, halting Muir's advance. The guard scrutinized Muir's form and then noticed a small figure behind him. Attempting to peer behind Muir, he was obstructed. "Is there a female behind you?" he inquired.


"Yes. We would like to seek shelter here for just a day. My female is pregnant," Muir explained to the beastman before him, who appeared to be a tiger beastman.


"Your female is pregnant?" another voice emerged from inside, belonging to an older figure among the beastmen. Perhaps he was a leader. "Yes, she is pregnant and in need of a place to rest," Muir reaffirmed.



The older man appeared pensive and eventually permitted them entry. "Come in. I will prepare a place for you to stay," he stated, leading them into the village. Muir and Aria followed him cautiously.





Aria took the chance to observe her surroundings while trailing the old man. She had never ventured beyond the beast city and camel village. The other villages outside seemed to possess their own distinct characteristics, with houses built differently. The females appeared similar to the descriptions in the manga/novel, while the males surrounded them, vying for the attention of a single female.


'Would I be like Bai if I didn't know about this manga?... you know... afraid of having so many males?' she pondered.


"Here. You can stay here," the man showed them the house where they could stay, his gaze lingering on the beautiful female behind the eagle.


"Stay here as long as you want," he suddenly offered upon seeing Aria. 'Probably has some strange thoughts,' she mused, taking another look around and noticing the less of females outside.


How unfortunate this world is... so few females in the village. "How many females are there here?" she inquired of the presumed chief. "There are currently 5 females and 30 males," he revealed. "the female getting little day by day here."


"We also been very cautious recently because we've heard that scorpion beastmen have been destroying nearby villages," he expressed concern about his own village. If they were to lose against the scorpions, many would perish, and the females would likely be abducted.


'Scorpions? I don't even remember the storylines at this point,' she sighed, contemplating the threat. If the nearby village had already been attacked, wouldn't this village be next?


'One night,' Muir thought, feeling the need to depart from the village upon hearing news of feral creatures approaching the nearby settlement and wreaking havoc. He alone now, he can't risk more danger for Aria. 





They went inside the house and Aria can't help lay on the ground. feeling tired. "aria. let me put this first at least" Muir put a mat for Aria to lay down. He need to hunt but he can't leave aria alone here without a guard. "Aria you must be hungry" Muir looked at her softly. She touch her flat stomach. "yes...if you want,you can go hunt...i'll be okay here"


Muir really have a heavy heart to left Aria alone in this village. He stand up and open the door because he hear a footstep in front of the house. "huh?" he look at the meat that already wash and put nicely at the door. "what wrong?" Aria looked at muir.


"there a meat but i don't know who give" He take the meat and cut a little with his nail. Taste if there a poison inside the meat. since there no reaction, the meat is safe to eat. He bring the meat inside and roasted it.'There are too many suitors these days.' Muir is getting mad just thinking about another beastman becoming Aria's husband.


"hmm~ smell good! I wish they all eat together like we used to" She miss them...she just meet already have to be separated like this.She kept eating the meat that Muir cooked for her. Finally, today she can eat something other than fruits... She's happy even though she can only eat the bland meat.



Meanwhile Curtis and Calix,

Curtis hunted the animal and gulped it down in one go. "Let's get moving," he said. Calix, who was beside him, was a bit stunned by how he just gulped the animal like that. 'Thank god I'm not his enemy' Calix thought as he took a relieved breath.





back to Aria,


"Aria, let's plan to get moving in the morning," Muir informed her, knowing she was a heavy sleeper. They always struggled to wake Aria up in the morning. "I don't want to," she pouted, she hate wake up early!



"Don't make that face. I'll kiss it if you keep it up," Muir teased, well aware that she could get away with anything when she made that expression at home. "I hate waking up early!" she whined. Muir smirked, moving closer to her and kissing her pouty lips.He keeps kissing her, his tongue swirling around her own, their tongues dancing together. The kiss grows deeper and more intense, their bodies pressing together, their hands roaming, exploring each other's bodies underneath the fabric of her thin clothes. 


He  rubbing her inner thighs, his thumbs sliding upwards, teasing her sensitive flesh, until they reach her core. With his thumbs, he begins to massage her, making sure that she knows how much he wants her and how much he loves her.his eyes full of adoration and love. He doesn't stop, even when he feels her begin to squirm beneath his touch, her hips rocking back and forth, trying to get more.


"if you don't wake up. I will just carry you" He whispers while his voice growing rougher.


"that not a bad ideas~" 


It had been a while since he had the chance to be alone with her. He need to use this times wisely to be with Aria.
