"Come here," Elvis waved to Gu Mengmeng and said, "I know you have woken up."
Gu Mengmeng, who had originally wanted to continue acting asleep, was left with no other choice but to open her eyes. She rolled up from the pile of grass and smiled in an awkward yet polite manner, "Leader."
"Who will you choose, tonight?" Elvis's figure looked ambiguous in the shadow and Gu Mengmeng could not see him clearly even from such a close distance.
"Huh?" Gu Mengmeng's heart paused for a split second due to Elvis's words. Who would she choose tonight? Like an emperor choosing which concubine to sleep with? Lea's ambiguous movements and alluring words were put on automatic replay in Gu Mengmeng's mind and her face blushed naturally.
Damn, Lea had looked like a transcendent flower on the highest mountain, why did he know so much about flirting? Even being a bad influence to my Leader! Give me back the cool and abstinent Leader, who is this awkward guy?! I must be having a fake Leader now!
Gu Mengmeng criticized silently, without bothering to manage her facial expressions. Hence the politeness on her face had disappeared, leaving behind awkwardness.
Elvis pulled Gu Mengmeng straight into his arms, his chins against the top of her head to prevent her from noticing his anticipatory look.
He knew Gu Mengmeng was a little scared of him, but not the reason behind it. He wished Gu Mengmeng could look at him in the same affectionate way as she had looked at Lea, but she never did except during their first encounter.
"Who will you choose as your first partner tonight during the campfire?" Elvis had tried to keep his tone calm, but he did not know how jittery he sounded. He looked forward to her answer, but was also afraid of hearing names other than his.
Well sorry, Gu Mengmeng definitely went against Elvis's hopes.
Because a nuclear bomb had just been dropped in her brain!
"What first partner?! Leader, have you forgotten? I'm still a young female! Underage!" Gu Mengmeng covered her chest with both of her hands instinctively and looked at Elvis with her guard up. She thought: Even if this is the Beast World, but surely even beasts have morals to abide to? Everyone will rage if you did it to underage young females, wouldn't their greatest Beast Deity come and settle this issue?
"You have matured into adulthood today." Elvis rubbed his chin against Gu Mengmeng's head with a gentle smile in his eyes. "You are going through estrus today."
"What the?!" Gu Mengmeng blurted out. "I am an innocent girl, why the heck would I go through estrus?"
Elvis tilted his head and looked at the raging Gu Mengmeng with a pampering smile on his face.
The scent on Gu Mengmeng was not covered by Lea's medicine pouch at all, instead, it had represented an unspoken ambiguous feeling, making it even more irresistible. Like an invisible hand, the sweet scent was tearing his every nerve, with a voice repeatedly muttering in Elvis's ears:
"Your female, she has matured!"
Gu Mengmeng was a little creeped out by Elvis's smile. She cleared her throat, lowered her head in a defeated manner and said, " Leader, I wasn't scolding you, I was just expressing my shock. I'm really a young female, it's impossible for me to go through estrus. You gotta trust me, really!"
Elvis circled around Gu Mengmeng's shoulders, bent down to match her height and looked at her straight in the eye. He said, "If you continue to be this excited, the beast pressure I'm exerting might not be able to suppress the males outside. They are Saint Nazaire's tribesmen and I don't want to hurt them."
