Su Yu's body went rigid. Her voice trembled as she asked, "M-Mating period?"
Only then did she remember a specific detail from the book's setting.
Beastmen, both male and female, have mating periods, and spring is the peak season for them.
Their beastly instincts drive an urgent desire to mate and produce offspring of their own bloodline.
She wasn't experiencing a mating period because she was already pregnant.
But Shengqing was a male Beastman, so of course he had one.
So right now, he was...
In heat?!
Shengqing raised an eyebrow. His jade-like fingers gripped her chin, his eyes dark and menacing. "That's right. I saved you and have taken care of you for so many days. Shouldn't you repay me?"
He paused, then added with mock kindness, "Don't worry, my Beast Mark is still intact. My body is clean. I can give you my Beast Mark, let it nourish your body, and be your Beast Husband."
"You're so fragile. A single Beast Husband could never support you."
