Beauty's Beasts
Chapter 183: Distracted

Chapter 183: Distracted

You...you!!!" Davis spoke but kept stuttering with his words. He turned around and left after casting the shed one last glare.

Beastmen weren’t proficient in word battles but things would be completely different if it was a real fight. He was only the current lord, temporarily, he had to wait for the others to make it here, in the meantime, he’d follow along with the instructions he had received from his father who was yet to come over. Once his other brothers came, he’d love to see who will be laughing then!!!

The beastmen who expected the presently acting lord to snatch the female were left dumbstruck watching him leave just like that!

But they also knew it deep down, if faced with Kevin, they’d act the same way and leave while they still could.

The following days went by peacefully, Ash and his gang also knew this shed wasn’t convenient for Sydney to stay in amd on tje third day, they constructed a simple house made of stone slabs. It was different from all the other houses in he vicinity that were made of either mud and straw or carved from tree trunks.

Information also spread out and Sydney and her group learnt of the Storm clan’s intentions.

First, they didn’t intend to attack and take over the city of beasts, though the place was perfectly established, they didn’t want to waste their manpower on useless battles, what they needed now was to establish their own city in his new territory, fights..they’d come up when they were struggling for resources.

Learning this, Sydney heaved a sigh of relief. This had been their greatest worry but it seems like those who were initially lords wanted to keep their titles at all costs.

Seems we don’t have to stay here for long. We have to move and learn what the other former lords plan to do." Sydney said. At the moment, they were seated in the sitting room and discussing their follow up plans.

Sydney’s right. We have ben here for a whole month now. It’s time we move." Greg nodded in agreement.

This place has undergone change in these few days, what were initially straw and mud houses were now also stone houses, standing strong and profound. A castle had been constructed in the heart of the village and beastmen had been working day and night to fortifie their territory. Strong walls stood erect with a few guard posts at top of the walls. The whole place stretched for a few thousand kilometers. Those who were considered first wee naturally the females and all their homes were close to the city’s palace.

It was also on this one special day that Sydney chose to come out after so many days. She didn’t let her mates carry her around and she was at the forefront, them right behind her like bodyguards. The city wa lively with beastmen doing exchange while others returned from hunting.

I didn’t know that other cities also know how to do trade." She spoke looking around. Of course, she didn’t come to parade her beauty and her face was covered with a thin material like a veil.

Though many didn’t get to see her face through the veil, seeing her mates behind her, it was enough for them to know who she is.

She finally came out!!!" A voice cried out happily!

Many had been dying to woo her but not only had her mates beaten them off, she also didn’t come outside for a whole month!!! It was extremely depressing for those who had hopes of becoming her mates.

Of course, during his month, Sydney didn’t just stay in the house doing nothing, to put it correctly, she was confined in the house by some hungry beasts. She was only a tiny female, how was she an opponent against seven strong men?!

She had been bullied till she couldn’t even cry! Whom to report her grievances to? There was no one! Even Enzo and his crew joined in on the fun and she could now be considered mates with them once again. Though she didn’t have their marks, their scents were heavy on her and they too now held a heavy possessiveness towards her. Enzo, Greg and Kevin were like husbands from earth, extremely territorial!!!

The number of beastmen flocking this new city begun to grow by the day but their numbers couldn’t equate to that of the city of beasts.

Time travels fast." Sydney sighed as she continued to walk around.

Hey..hey, do you know what I learnt of just now?" A conversation caught Sydney’s attention and she purposefully slowed down her steps. These few days, she was no different from a paparazzi, magneting all sorts of news and information.

Lord Storm will be arriving in the city in a few days!!! All our other brothers will soon reunite with us!! The beastman was cheerful as he spoke.

What?! Really!! That’s great! That’s great!!!" Those who were close cheered on equally happy.

This was good news!!!

How is your information true? Lord Davis hasn’t said a word about it!" One spoke up skeptically.

Of course he hasn’t announced it! I have a friend who is a guard in the lord’s mansion. He let me on this important matter. There’s no way he’d lie!" The one who brought the news jumped up in defence.

Sydney and her group continued on with their walk before returning to their home.

Lord Storm.. that’s your father?" Sydney asked Ray.

He nodded. "I have a total of thirty six brothers each from a different batch, the last time I checked, there were eight batches, it’s possible that there’s more...but I’m not so sure."

Sydney’s mouth wa agape that it could fit a fist. "That many!!!!" She cried out.

It’s inevitable. The more mates one has the more they are likely to give birth to more cubs. My mother for instance, she had a total of fifty males before I left home, it was only natural for her to have that many cubs.

Sydney died upon hearing the number of husbands her mother in law had!

Respects Respects dear mother in law!!

Ray laughed at her expression. "Despite that she didn’t get the chance to birth a female child... it’s depressing on her side and that’s why she continued to bare more." He told her.

It was all for a female child?" Sydney asked with a frown.

Indeed. A Queen who doesn’t bare a female child is, how should I put it, she’s considered bad luck...I guess."

Huh? Bad luck?! Who came up with such a stupid thing?"

I don’t know either! But that’s the case for those from the northern continent."

Is it the same for you?" Ash wa faced with Sydney’s probing gaze and he nodded. Something like that but it’s mostly among males. They don’t dare say it before females for fear if being cast aside by their females. But those females whose mates are in high positions know of it." He replied honestly.

Then how come I know nothing of it?" Sydney asked her hands under her chest puffing it up.

Ever since she her two peaks received sufficient attention from her men, they had gotten larger and plumper!

It was no hard to find that all the men’s attention was on her chest despite the serious topic they were tackling.
