The Wicked Female Is Wild and Scheming, Living in a Love Battlefield Every Day-Chapter 390 - 302: Exposed
The moonlight in The Winged Tiger Tribe is exceptionally cold.
Chloe Callahan gazed into a basin of clear water, her smooth, delicate hand gently caressing the once-smooth skin of her left cheek, finally resting at a certain spot.
That spot once had the humiliating and ugly character "Slave" engraved upon it.
Now the "Slave" character had long disappeared, and the skin was smooth and soft again.
Even the scars were no longer visible.
She couldn’t help but think to herself: The healing powers of The Raging Lion Tribe’s old shaman are indeed impressive, absolutely leaving no trace behind.
Standing behind her was a tall and fit beastman, Javier Ashwood, the son of the leader of The Raging Lion Tribe, a Sixth-rank Beastman.
With a handsome and alluring face, high nose and deep-set eyes, bronze skin with a honeyed glow, his body exuded a strong masculine aura.
His algae-like golden long hair was casually tied with a bone chain, bright and exotically featured, greatly attractive.
He was one of Chloe Callahan’s suitors, and their relationship was currently hot and sticky.
The Slave Mark on her face was cured by The Old Shaman from The Raging Lion Tribe, whom Javier found.
Of course, he liked Chloe Callahan, but more importantly, it was for the mysterious treasure that helps beastmen evolve.
Unfortunately, this female was very cautious, no matter how much he tried to please or probe, she just wouldn’t bring out the treasure.
Even though their relationship was good now, having mated countless times, she still wouldn’t reveal it.
Instead, she kept stringing him along, which was very frustrating, yet he couldn’t act out.
Chloe Callahan finally got enough of her reflection in the water, turned to look at Javier Ashwood beside her, fingers tracing her smooth face, and smiled charmingly: "I’ll remember your kindness, Young Master."
"It’s just a small thing, I’m your man, helping you is my duty."
Javier Ashwood, with a lazy demeanor, opened his arms and embraced her from behind, fingertips ambiguously rubbing her waist’s exposed skin, voice hoarse: "Let me stay tonight?"
Chloe Callahan laughed softly, dodging away, the bone hairpin in her hair glinting coldly under the moonlight: "Why is Young Master Javier in such a hurry?"
Outside the window, the sudden hiss of a serpent could be heard.
Caelus, unknown to anyone, had appeared at the door, his deep eyes coldly fixed on Javier Ashwood’s hand around Chloe Callahan’s waist: "The Raging Lion Tribe is indeed domineering, not only stealing fragrance at night but also liking to snatch other people’s females?"
His speech was lazy and indifferent, containing hidden thorns even amid extreme emotions, showing the endurance of a beastman.
With a gloomy and beautiful face, always hiding in darkness, disallowing others to touch or approach.
This was the Young Master of The Serpent Beast Tribe, his strength also at the sixth rank.
Another of Chloe Callahan’s suitors, naturally also for the mysterious treasure.
Of course, there is also a bit of personal interest in Chloe Callahan involved.
"Heh."
Javier Ashwood’s golden hair fluttered in the night wind, revealing his gleaming white teeth, coldly laughing repeatedly: "Chloe didn’t clearly agree to you being her second beast husband, you don’t seem qualified to say such words."
Caelus’ eyes instantly turned cold, gaze falling on Chloe Callahan’s flawless and pure face: "Then did you agree to him?"
Chloe Callahan hadn’t yet spoken.
"Naturally."
Javier Ashwood already answered on her behalf, lips curling in pride, arm tightening.
He held Chloe Callahan tightly in his embrace, lowered his head to claim his dominance with a heavy kiss on her cheek, "Chloe already agreed to me being her second beast husband, right?"
He lowered his gaze to meet Chloe Callahan’s, bronze skin shimmering faintly in the firelight indoors, eyes aggressive yet accompanied by a trace of barely noticeable tension.
He was nervous about Chloe Callahan’s answer.
Though they had long shared intimate connections, he always assumed Chloe Callahan was his female.
Yet she never clearly agreed.
Being questioned by Caelus on the spot, he suddenly realized the importance of this matter.
Chloe Callahan’s eyes shifted between the two, quickly weighing the pros and cons in her mind.
These two beastmen were equally strong, both uniquely handsome, exemplary male beastmen, choosing either wouldn’t be disadvantageous.
Yet she didn’t want to give up the other.
After all, both of these beastmen were only flattering her for the "mysterious treasure" she supposedly had.
If she clearly agreed to one, the other would surely cease treating her with such favor.
This feeling of being like a star adored by everyone, pursued and pampered by all, she hadn’t enjoyed enough.
Also, fundamentally, she dared not agree to either side.
Once formally upgraded to her beast husband, the imaginary "mysterious treasure" would inevitably have to be revealed.
She didn’t have such an item on her, surely couldn’t materialize it, right?
"You guys..."
Her voice was soft and tender, eyes carrying a hint of perfect confusion and helplessness, "You both are the most outstanding beastmen of various tribes, choosing anyone would hurt another, Chloe doesn’t want to make any of you sad..."
Speaking to the point of heartache, her eyes slightly red, voice carrying a touch of sob: "Could you please give Chloe some time? Let Chloe think it over..."
"Okay."
Javier Ashwood and Caelus nearly spoke in unison.
As the words left their lips, they realized the impropriety, faces instantly souring, glances at each other filled with hostility.
Chloe Callahan rejoiced inwardly, but her face showed no trace of it.
She gently broke free from Javier Ashwood’s embrace, her soft and delicate hand holding his, her voice sweet and soft: "Javier Ashwood, Young Master, would you mind going back for tonight? I want to talk to Caelus alone."
Javier’s face instantly darkened. He looked down at Chloe, with a hint of hurt and unwillingness in his gaze: "Chloe, you..."
"Don’t be like this."
Chloe stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear: "Come back tomorrow, I have something to tell you."
Her voice was tender, her breath fragrant as orchid; the pure look on her face was tinged with a seductive charm.
Javier felt a flutter in his heart, swallowing back the questions he was about to voice.
He gave Chloe a deep look before reluctantly leaving.
Caelus watched his departing figure, threads of coldness flashing in his deep eyes.
He turned to Chloe, coldly questioning: "What did you say to him just now?"
Chloe chuckled, gazing at him with charming eyes: "Of course, sweet words, else why would he leave willingly?"
She laughed and walked over, pulling Caelus into the wooden hut, her voice soft: "Don’t be angry, I truly have you in my heart..."
As the animal hide curtain fell, ambiguous whispers and heart-throbbing sounds faintly resonated inside.
With a gentle night breeze, Pearl Vance stood outside the wooden hut, listening to the ambiguous noises inside, her nails deeply embedded in her palms.
Under the moonlight, her pretty face twisted terrifyingly.
These days she watched as Chloe Callahan maneuvered among the various tribe’s Beastmen, and even the Slave Mark on her face had been healed, regaining her glory; the feeling was just as painful as being bitten by a poisonous snake.
"Slut..." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
She cursed silently, turning and disappearing into the darkness.
After an unknown duration, the commotion inside the wooden hut finally ceased and quietness returned.
Soon, the sound of rummaging for items echoed again, light footsteps barely audible.
As the night deepened, the moonlight of The Winged Tiger Tribe was shrouded by thick clouds, plunging the surroundings into darkness.
Inside the wooden hut.
Caelus searched the wooden hut by moonlight, his movements incredibly light.
He lifted the animal hide mattress, felt around each clay pot and the floor, even crawled under the bed for a look.
He even checked the vine basket hanging on the beams.
Still, there was no trace of the precious artifact.
"Hmm..."
On the bed, Chloe Callahan suddenly turned over, prompting Caelus to halt his actions immediately.
Moonlight slipped through the window cracks, illuminating Chloe’s smooth face.
Caelus stared at her for a while, then suddenly reached out and grabbed her neck: "Pretending to sleep?"
Chloe snapped her eyes open, fearfully gripping his wrist: "Caelus...you..."
"Where’s the precious artifact?"
Caelus’s eyes were cold and dark, his grasp increasing pressure, as if the previous tenderness was just an illusion: "Do you think tricking us is fun?"
He hadn’t intended to reveal his true face so soon. Since the other had noticed, she was to blame.
Chloe was choked to the point she could barely breathe, her face flushed red.
She clearly understood Caelus’s intent and knew what he sought.
But she didn’t possess the precious artifact, nor dared to admit; otherwise, this Beastman would definitely kill her.
Tears came swiftly, her pitiful and helpless look feigning ignorance: "Caelus, what’s wrong with you? Don’t scare me, I’m scared~"
Caelus sneered coldly, his deep eyes chillingly cold: "Playing dumb?"
His grip suddenly tightened, sharp nails penetrating her neck skin, "I’ll ask you one more time, where’s the precious artifact?"
Chloe was choked until stars danced before her eyes, her nails leaving blood marks on Caelus’s arm: "I...truly don’t know...about any precious artifact..."
Caelus suddenly released her, sneering coldly: "Looks like you won’t cry until you see the coffin."
He emitted a ghostly green poison mist from his fingertip, slowly approaching under Chloe’s terrified gaze: "Snake venom will cause your body to fester and perish. One last time, the precious artifact, where is it?"
Chloe gazed at the increasingly close poison mist in fear, quick-thinking under pressure, "The artifact isn’t on me!"
"Oh?"
Caelus squinted his eyes: "Do you think I’ll believe that?"
Caleb Manning had advanced to the eighth rank and evolved into Ancient Divine Beast, the White Tiger, news long spreading across The Lower Domain.
Everyone’s been saying, Chloe Callahan’s body contained a precious artifact aiding Beastman evolution, could the news be false?
How could that be possible?
Then how to explain Caleb’s change in power?
"Really, I’m not lying, it’s with Luna Sutton!"
Chloe suddenly screamed, "She stole my precious artifact and deliberately spread rumors to frame me; Caleb became Luna Sutton’s Guardian just to save me..."
