Beauty in the beast world
Chapter 148: Mini Noah

Chapter 148: Mini Noah

"Answer me!" Kaizer’s cold voice reverberated inside the serene forest.

Even Kaizer, himself felt surprised by his patience while questioning this old bastard. He was seething inside but reminded himself, again and again, to not lose his calm before learning the truth.

"Do you think I will kill you and end this?" The witch master visibly flinched hearing his voice, "I will make you beg for your death. You will wish that you would die faster rather than go through the torture that I will inflict later"

"Ple-please" the old witch master crawled back to put some distance between the madman in front of him. Nothing else came to his mind but to flee as he looked at the frenzied eyes of the rootless beastman in front of him.

The witch master did not even understand why someone like him was even trying to meddle with these matters. Surely no rootless beastmen could feel emotions towards females so why was this one trying so hard to find out the one who was trying to harm that female?

He wanted to ask about these concerns but held back after seeing the dark aura around the rootless beastman. The witch master was still trying to process the knowledge about someone having dark powers in the beast world. It was not easily controllable or wieldable but the beastman in front of him looked proficient while controlling the shadow creature. He looked nonchalant and carefree while handling the most dangerous powers in the world.

"So this is your final decision?" The witch master came out of his train of thoughts after hearing Kaizer’s rigid voice.

He tried to stand up and flee but felt himself being held down by Kaizer’s shadow creature.

"You can’t escape from here," Kaizer said calmly while stepping on the witch master’s neck with his barefoot. He started to slowly exert strength and the old witch master felt difficult to breathe.

Kaizer smiled coldly and parted his lips, "You still have time until you are completely out of breath. Answer the one behind you and I will spare you"

The witch master looked up at Kaizer with bloodshot eyes. He thought that he was quite loyal to the fox king but only now when his life was put on line did he come to his senses. A little more strength on his neck and he would really perish. As the last hope to save his life, he finally opened his mouth and muttered, "It was the fo-fox king. He ordered me to ambush that female when she is at her weakest"

"You spineless bastards dare!?" Kaizer shouted. Then he closed and opened his eyes to calm his erratic nerves, "What enmity does that fox bastard have with, my female?"

The witch master was stunned, "You-your female?"

"Yes, she is mine! How dare you try to harm someone that is mine?" Kaizer was too lost in his outrage to even notice the implications of his words. He felt scared when he first learned about someone trying to harm his bunny and he was oblivious to that fact. That followed an immeasurable amount of anger directed toward the one who tried to harm her.

His heart thundered in his chest and he wanted nothing but to eliminate everyone and everything that could harm his lovely bunny. Kaizer even failed to notice that the emotions that he never felt in his life were surging inside him.

Then he coldly glanced at the man under his feet and exerted all his strength, "No one touches what is mine!"

His shadow creature too was affected by Kaizer’s surge of emotions and grew darker as well as stronger.

Kaizer stopped exerting his strength only when he felt the witch master stop breathing.

He clenched his jaw and glared outside the forest, "Fox king...You are next"

Meanwhile back in the lion castle, Lyra groggily opened her eyes and groaned. Her entire body screamed tired but she was not able to stop herself from getting up. She wanted to see her babies as soon as possible.

"Baby dove?" Noah hastily turned towards her when he heard her waking up.

Lyra blinked her eyes which still looked tired. Noah supported her to sit on the bed while supporting her back with a pillow made of fluffy animal skin.

"Ugh..." She winced slightly and Noah panicked, "Are you alright baby dove?"

She nodded weakly before her eyes landed on the two little cubs beside her. Tears brimmed in the corner of her eyes and Lyra suddenly felt overwhelmed with emotions.

Noah noticed her eyes on the cubs and gently picked the younger cub in his arms. Then he came near his mate, "He is the younger one"

A heart-melting smile adorned his mate’s lips and Noah fell into a trance. He had seen her smiling face many times but this felt different. This was the same as the smile she had when she looked at the little snakes.

Lyra stretched her hand and took the little one from Noah’s hands. She nestled him into her chest and smiled brightly, "My baby....."

The little cub opened his big brown eyes and stared at his mother. He kept on pursuing his lips and Lyra looked at Noah, "Did they eat something after waking up?"

Noah shook his head, "I was waiting for you to wake up. The little ones have not eaten anything for a long time"

"Why were you waiting for me? You should have fed something for them even if I was not awake" Lyra said making Noah chuckle.

He rubbed her head and said, "You have to breastfeed them baby dove"

Lyra blinked her eyes in confusion. Her first children were snakelings, so she totally forgot about the fact that lion cubs drink their mother’s milk for the first few months after their birth.

She looked at Noah with an embarrassed face, "How do I?" Lyra felt too shy to ask a man to teach her the method of breastfeeding.

Noah smiled at her and helped her to remove her tube top before placing the cub’s mouth on her nipples.

The smart cub quickly understood how to drink the milk and started to suckle on her nipples.

Lyra glanced at Noah, "Hurry up and hand me the other one too. He must be just as hungry.....sigh you should have woken me up sooner"

Noah couldn’t help but laugh at her panic-laced voice. She went through such a pain earlier to give birth to them but it seemed that she totally forgot about it. He did not dare to wake her up after seeing her suffering and here he was berated for not waking her up sooner.

Lyra supported the younger cub and Noah the eldest one. After a few minutes, the two cubs released their mouth and fell asleep.

"So cute...." Lyra gushed looking at the small figures in her arms. She bet that Noah must have looked the same when he was still a baby. She couldn’t help but feel a little sour about that fact. She was the one to carry them in her stomach for months and gave birth after so many complications but they looked only like their father and nothing like her.

"Grrr" a small growl that sounded more like an adorable mewl left one of the cub’s mouth and Lyra completely forgot about her previous thoughts and looked at Noah, "Did he just growl!?"

Noah too looked stunned. He glanced at his mate and nodded dazedly, "He did!"

"How adorable" Lyra whined, "They are just like you but in a mini size"

Noah stared at his mate as she beamed brightly, "They are mini Noah!"
