The Wicked Female Is Wild and Scheming, Living in a Love Battlefield Every Day-Chapter 327 - 265: Gifts (Part 3)

But he could feel that Luna was indifferent towards him.

Clearly not as fond of him as the other Beast Husbands.

Thinking of this, a melancholy shadow passed over his face.

Rhys Blackwood knew he was always silent and aloof, not knowing how to win Luna’s favor, but fortunately, they already had a child together.

Kian Sterling looked at the dagger in Soren Phoenix’s hand, a flicker of emotion passing through his beautiful fox eyes.

Luna had originally liked him the most, but now this flamboyant phoenix arrived, easily receiving such an exquisite gift from Luna, which inevitably made him a little despondent.

He also felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Kian Sterling suddenly chuckled softly, his ten snowy white fox tails swaying elegantly: "Luna is right, there’s no need to be calculative among family."

As he said this, he took out a lustrous jade hairpin from his sleeve, the head carved into a lifelike fox. "I’ve been polishing this Cold Jade Hairpin for some time, intending to give it to Luna on her birthday..."

He gently turned it with his fingertips, the jade hairpin reflecting a warm and soft glow under the sunlight, the end engraved with a small "Sterling."

It was evident he had prepared it with great care and invested a lot of thought.

Luna Sutton felt a little touched, she hadn’t expected Kian Sterling to be so meticulous, even remembering her birthday.

In this Beast World, birthdays were not typically remembered, nor was there a concept of celebrating them.

"Kian, thank you."

She took the jade hairpin, gently caressing the fox carving on the hairpin, its texture warm and delicate, just like the feeling Kian gave her.

Seeing her pleased, Kian Sterling’s eyes brimmed with even more laughter: "As long as Luna likes it."

This scene was observed by the other Beast Husbands, leaving mixed emotions in their hearts.

Corbin Crowley’s silver eyes revealed a trace of sorrow.

Malachi Arcanus furrowed his brow, while Zeke Veridian remained cool and indifferent, his head lowered in contemplation.

Rhys Blackwood couldn’t help but let his gaze fall on the jade hairpin in Luna Sutton’s hand.

Pondering whether he should also give something to Luna.

Mael Valerius’s dark golden eyes were filled with complexity.

He glanced at Luna Sutton, and then at Kian Sterling, his thoughts unknown.

Soren Phoenix’s flirtatious eyes rippled with mirth as he watched the scene unfold, toying with the dagger in his hand.

Kian Sterling narrowed his eyes slightly, casting a dangerous glance at Soren Phoenix, yet smiling warmly: "Since Young Lord Fawkes is new here, why don’t I show you around the environment?"

Soren Phoenix’s Fiery Red Feather Robe flapped lightly without wind, peach blossom eyes still shimmering: "Sure, and we can chat about... how to win little Luna’s heart. I heard little Luna used to like you the most?"

Sparks flew between their gazes.

Corbin Crowley watched coldly, a hint of calculation in his silver eyes.

...

On this side, Chloe Callahan was assigned to the hardest and most exhausting area of the city wall construction site, her feet bound with beast sinew, a conspicuous "slave" mark imprinted on her face, digging earth and carrying stones from morning till night.

She tried to escape several times, only to be captured by the beastman guards and punished with a beating.

What was even more despairing was that the rogue plugin seemed to have vanished without a trace, no matter how she called, there was no response.

"System! System!"

Chloe Callahan screamed frantically in her heart, only to be met with silence.

As night fell, the weary Beastmen gradually returned to the temporary grass huts to rest.

Luna Sutton had just finished bathing and was drying her wet long hair with a beast skin when she was suddenly embraced from behind by a pair of strong arms.

"Cor... bin?"

She smelled the familiar icy fragrance and knew without turning who it was.

Corbin Crowley’s silver eyes were dark, lowering his head to gently sniff the fragrance in her hair: "Did you miss me?"

Since the misunderstanding was resolved last time, the two had reconciled, but due to the rotational schedule, they hadn’t had the chance to be close.

Tonight it was finally his turn.
