Ten years later—
"Claire, is that guy named Yume coming to see you again?" said the lioness leader Varner. Except for Claire, all the other lionesses in the group are her sisters, but Claire has always gotten along well with the other lionesses.
"Oh, forget it, I don't even know how that guy can be so laid-back!" Claire's attitude towards Yuzu was very impatient.
"Believe me, he is not leisurely at all - I heard that his tribe just occupied a territory that belonged to the Garaman Lions a few days ago. These unlucky guys, whether they are males or females, have all been killed without mercy. I drove him out mercilessly. I just saw a stray male lion on your territory, but I drove him away." Vana said, baring his teeth.
After hearing this, Lanni, the third child, also complained: "Although we are not afraid of those guys, I have to say that the guy named Yu has increased our workload. Why doesn't he at least keep those lionesses? ? Now, we not only have to guard against the lions of Garaman, but also ten lionesses! That guy will really cause us trouble!"
She sharpened her sharp claws on the stone: "If Lord Pascal hadn't said he was our ally, I would have clawed his way up. He is so annoying!"
"Hey! Don't say that. Although Yuzu is a little bit too troublesome...but he is very powerful, isn't he?" Berene said: "Except for Lord Pascal, he is the most promising person I have ever seen. A young lion. Moreover, his tribe is as intelligent as ours, so it’s only natural that he doesn’t like those pure female beasts of Garaman!”
"Do you like him? Renee?" Claire raised her voice in surprise.
"Kind of. After all, you know, our heat is coming soon. Although we have spent the past few years alone during our heat, if there is a suitable partner, I wouldn't mind asking them to help. I'm going through heat," Berenee said.
Lionesses have a period of estrus every two years. In this regard, the Berennie sisters and others are no different from those lionesses who cannot incarnate into humans. Not choosing to have sex with male lions does not mean that they do not have this need. They just cannot accept promiscuous sex in order to survive the estrus period.
Except for a few male lions in the Pascal pride, most of the male lions living on this prairie are low-level intelligent lions. In the eyes of the Varner sisters, they are a group of pure beasts! Which normal person is willing to get together with a wild man just to vent his anger and make himself feel more comfortable in a short week? Especially after going through the annoying estrus period, they still have a certain chance of getting pregnant, that is to say, if they may give birth to offspring for a group of beasts! Just thinking about this kind of thing makes people feel uncomfortable.
Although the Varner sisters are not chaste and fierce women, their vision is not low.
But You and others are different. In Beileni's eyes, he, like them, is a lion with high intelligence, and Yume himself has great potential, so he is qualified to be included in their consideration.
Berene licked the fur on her body that was blown up by the wind, and said to Claire: "In my opinion, that Yumei is pretty good. If it wasn't because he likes you, I would have taken action long ago. But now Well, to me, sisters are much more important than a male."
Claire shook her head: "No, no, no, I really have nothing to do with him. Renee, you don't have to worry about me at all. If you like him, just go ahead."
In Claire's mind, the word pomelo is directly linked to trouble. Normally, him chasing her would only make her irritated. But sometimes, his eyes made her panic. Thinking of the way he looked at her a few days ago... Claire shook her head and pushed the throbbing of that moment out of her mind.
She had never considered finding a male to live with in the past, and she probably wouldn't consider it in the future. It is true that she has changed her mind about Yuyou to a certain extent over the years, but this does not mean that she can accept him.
Claire told him these words clearly, but unfortunately, after hearing this, he still followed her stubbornly.
Since he is so free now that he bothers her every now and then, it would be best to find something to do to distract his energy, such as dealing with Berene's pursuit, Claire thought.
"You really don't mind?" Berene narrowed her eyes seriously and looked at Claire.
"Really, really, really!" Claire responded three times in a row, looking like a person who was forced to constantly reveal her feelings.
"Well, then don't regret it!" Berene said, her vertical pupils showing the light of hunting.
"Of course!" Claire had to admit that she was actually a little uncomfortable when she heard Berene said she planned to pursue Yuzu, but she quickly suppressed her discomfort. Since she doesn't intend to accept Yuzu, and can't even imagine a life with Yuzu, there is nothing wrong with someone else pursuing him or even being with him.
"By the way, where did Mr. Pascal and Jela go?" Lanny asked.
In the Pascal pride, when lionesses are about to go into heat, adult male lions who do not intend to mate with them will automatically avoid them.
There is no doubt that Pascal will not stay in the territory at this time, nor will other adult male lions. Although Jera is in a sub-adult state, it has been affected to a certain extent in recent years, so it also avoided it early.
Even though Jela has grown up now, in the hearts of the lionesses, he is still a little lion who needs their protection. Even if the only couple in the lion group, Sean and Sarah, later gave birth to a little lioness Elsa, they could not dilute the lionesses' love for Jela.
As soon as Jela leaves their sight, they will worry about whether Jela will be bullied by Pascal. After all, Pascal's image as a father has always been very bad in the hearts of the lionesses.
"I don't know, but maybe Master Pascal is giving Jela a bath again. He has fallen in love with this activity recently, but Jela obviously doesn't like it very much." Varner said, frowning.
Lanni was obviously confused by this: "I remember, Master Pascal doesn't have mysophobia, right? Even if he has mysophobia, he doesn't need to lick Jela every day! This is so strange!"
"That's right!" Berene firmly stood on the same front as her sisters in this regard: "And Jela is not a child who doesn't like to be clean! I saw that he washes his fur with water every day. He doesn't like Pascal at all. Mr. Er is so close to him! We all know that male lions are very territorial. After all, Jela is not a child anymore. Maybe every time when Mr. Pascal licks his fur, what he feels is not care. , but my territory has been invaded!"
"That's right. When Master Pascal comes back, we have to talk about him! Does he want to lick little Jela's hair bald?"
…
Deep in the grass, the grass is almost half a man tall. If there are predators sneaking quietly in the grass at this time, this lush grass will be their best cover.
A strong gust of wind blew past, and the grass was blown to one side, revealing a little golden hair hidden in it.
If someone goes to dig through the grass at this time, they will find that a strong adult male lion is pressing down on a lion that is smaller than him and licking it up and down. The thick mane is undulating due to his ups and downs. Constantly shaking. His eager look was like savoring a delicious dish.
His claws were firmly fixing the lion underneath him, stopping all the other's struggles.
"Well, that's enough! I'm clean enough already! Stop it, stop licking it, Pascal!" cried the lion below.
Pascal lay on top of Jela and breathed heavily, almost all of his heavy breath spraying on the latter's body.
"Oh, dear Jayla, why are you always so tidy? I'm just giving you a bath."
Every time his tongue swept through his hair, an unbearable shiver rose up in him.
Jela could feel that Pascal was the most aggressive at this time. Every part of his body, this damn lion, refused to let go.
Male lions need their own territory. Even if Jela is only a sub-adult male lion, when another male breaks through his safe range, he will still be able to help but stand up and be wary.
But Pascal didn't seem to care at all. He is exactly the lion who refuses to follow the default rules at all.
He didn't care about sharing his territory with Jela, and at the same time, he unscrupulously invaded Jela's safe range.
Every time Pascal pressed him under his paws and forcibly licked his whole body in the name of bathing, Jela felt that Pascal was confirming whether his meat was delicious and delicious enough.
Yes, Jela wondered if Pascal wanted to swallow him whole.
They are of the same race. Logically speaking, lions would not be interested in the meat of their own species, but perhaps Pascal is an exception.
Once he had this thought in his mind, Jela couldn't help but remember that when he was a little lion, Pascal used him as a food reserve.
At that time, Pascal was waiting for this day, fattening him up and then eating him.
Jela didn't understand why Pascal was so eager when it was clearly not winter yet and the lions were not short of food.
However, he knew that he could no longer sit still and wait for death. He doesn't want to be what his adoptive father calls a delicious lunch! He is very grateful to him for raising him and is willing to repay his kindness, but definitely not in this form!
"Look at you, I told you, I'm just bathing you." Pascal's voice was a little low and hoarse, and there was something in his eyes that was not usually there. But Jela was very familiar with this look in his eyes: the look in his eyes when he met his prey.
'Yes, you just inspected the goods in advance in the name of taking a bath. 'Jera thought angrily. Fortunately, he thought that after all these years, they had developed some friendship and he wouldn't eat him again! It turns out that everything about father and son and family relationship are all lies! He was the only one who foolishly believed it!
Jela didn't say what he was thinking, he didn't dare. As a hunter, Pascal is full of oppression and aggression, which makes Jela feel afraid.
When Pascal finally loosened his grip on Jela, Jela breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was safe for the time being. At least this time, Pascal didn't intend to actually eat him. However, if you can escape the first grade of junior high school, can you escape the fifteenth grade
A belief became firm and clear in Jela's mind.
Escape, you must escape!
