Gentle Beast Chapter 50

Crew and Flick stopped.

“Chief, what do you mean?”

Ryan lifted a long leg. “Stop you fighting. Send this Olympus female to Bersen’s house. Remove her from the race and send her, along with the other females, up to the to the Uhland Snowfield.”

Berson was the leopard that replaced Scarlet as elder. He and Scarlet were about the same age, but Berson was of a much milder personality.

Crew shifted into his human form and asked, “Uhland Snowfield? Why do we need to send our females up to the barren land?”

Flick also expressed his doubts.

Ryan carried Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu past them, saying, “Call all the young males of the race. Tomorrow I will explain why.”

There was a group of snow leopards in the depths of Uhland’s deep snow fields. After the sudden change in environment on Bornia, they had gone into hiding and weren’t included in the overall Leopard race.

This group of snow leopards actually had only a dozen or so members. After hundreds of years of breeding, there were not about two hundred of them and most of them were female.

Ryan had always intended to take care of them, but they had always acted too cautiously and traces could hardly be found.

Now, Ryan had come up with a plan. Beasts would relax their vigilance towards those of the same kind. If they were to use their females to draw out the snow leopard females, then finding their whereabouts would be easy.

The following day, Ryan explained about the Uhland Snowfield and the males formulated a careful plan to take over.

That afternoon, Dole and Corey led the tribe to the field.

Ryan did not go. This kind of trivial thing could be settled without him.

Things went as well as Ryan had expected.

Olympus and two other females walked into the snow-capped mountains. One of them pretended to be injured and successfully lured over a snow leopard.

Dole and Corey easily followed the snow leopard and found their settlement.

First they tried persuading them to return to the race, but they were used to their freedom and refused to compromise. Afterward, Dole led the tribe to overtake them with him. Because most of these snow leopards were female and lacked combat skill, they quickly fell and had to surrender. They obediently followed Dole and Corey back to the leopard tribe.

In fact, returning to the race was going to be good for the two hundred snow leopards.

With the protection of the race, they would no longer have to live out their lives displaced and could settle into Camuda Valley. They wouldn’t have to suffer the bullying of the other races either.

Of course, the leopard males were much happier.

With the extra females, numbering more than a hundred, it would quickly solve the scarcity of the females in their race.

Ryan let Berson register the names of the snow leopards and assigned them to males of the race.

Although some males still did not get a spouse, most of the males that gained a spouse were very satisfied with the results. They gained an additional layer of “reverence” for Ryan.

As for Olympus, one of the male snow leopards fancied her. After seeking her out to be his spouse, he contributed further to the race and could stay.

However, Morelli settled in the northwest of the Camuda Valley. Ryan’s house was diagonally across from them, so unless there was a special visit, there was no chance of coincidental meeting.

*

In fact, there were many more changes Ryan had decided for the race, and he had his reasons.

In just a few days, two of the females int he race were declared pregnant.

——To understand their joy, it had to be known that they hadn’t celebrated offspring for nearly a year!

This was good news. Elder Berson decided to hold a bonfire party and asked the chief to go with his spouse.

When Ryan heard the news, he was bathing in the back mountain.

The ice had melted and the trees were springing up all around, green sprouts piercing through the snow and stretching up high. It created green sparkles in the silver-white world.

Though river had thawed out, it was still cold and ice floated in the water.

Ryan got out after his bath and water dripped from his jaw down over his broad chest, slooping all the way down. It licked against his abdominal muscles then into the thick hair along his belly.

Ryan wiped his body with his clothes and put on another leather outfit, delivering a few words tot he beastman that came to give him the news, “I know. Go back.”

The other party quickly shifted away his eyes and obediently left.

While walking away, he couldn’t help but think about the size of their leader. Even the leopard females wouldn’t be able to bear it. The leader’s little spouse was even more petite. He didn’t know how their sex life was coordinated. . .

However, these things Ryan’s subordinates did not need to worry about because Ryan had never touched his spouse.

Although Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu wasn’t avoiding Ryan anymore, she still forbid any intimate contact with him.

Not to mention “copulation”.

Scared to death, and quick to cry.

This was Ryan’s final assessment of the little one.

“What are you doing?” A deep and powerful voice suddenly sounded throughout the air.

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu was startled and she raised her eyes, seeing Ryan standing in front of her with his chest bare. His shoulders were wide, his waist narrow, and his legs long. He wore a wheat-yellow jacket of a skin she didn’t know, and his trousers were loose. A shadow of a jungle peered out from inside, as if hiding a lion ready to go.

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu’s cheeks were slightly hot and she hurriedly looked away, asking, “Why didn’t you get dressed?”

While she spoke, she packed away gauze and cotton in a cupboard next to her.

Ryan glanced at her but was uninterested in the cotton and gauze. He walked over to her Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu and bent over, trapping her between him and the cabinet, “Didn’t you think my body was dirty? I’ve washed it now, why don’t you check it?”

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu was blocked in by him and in front of her was his bare chest which still dripped with water. The mixture of cold moisture and male hormones had her cheeks fully red, “I don’t wnat to check. Go away!”

“Don’t you want to check if I haven’t cleaned?” not only did Ryan not move, but he pressed her towards his chest and brought his mouth close to her ear, “Is it dirty here?”

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu bit her lip and her wrist twitched, and resentfully said, “Ryan. . .”

Ryan didn’t seem to hear it. Holding her hand down, he pressed it to his belly, “Well, is it not dirty?”

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu: “Hey. . .”

The corners of Ryan’s mouth hooked upward, his voice more and more mellowed, and huskier and huskier. He used Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu’s hand to explore even further, even deeper, “Or dirty here. . .?”

Her fingers touched something hot and solid thing and Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu’s face flushed even brighter. Panicking, she withdrew her hand in a hurry and pushed Ryan, “You! Don’t go so far!”

Ryan blinked and said thoughtfully, “So to speak, don’t overdo it?”

“. . .”

Ryan saw her cheeks were red, about to be ripe. So he kissed her grumpy cheek and accepted his loss, “The clan’s holding a party tonight, want to go with me?”

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu bitterly turned around, “Do not.”

She knew not everything could be blamed on Ryan. When he had her touch him with her hand, only she knew how hard her heart was beating.

——Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu sadly realized that it was getting increasingly more difficult to resist Ryan’s touch.

Ah, ah, ah, she unlikely enough already liked Ryan. . .

How could she like a leopard T_T? Not to mention that his tongue was barbed, when he kissed her, her tongue hurt. And now, Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu remembered that a cat’s genitals were also barbed. In Ryan’s case. . .

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu thought back for a moment. She hadn’t encountered anything strange, as if there wasn’t. . .

But she only touched the head and shrank back, even if there was she wouldn’t have felt it, ah. . .

Ryan don’t know what Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu was thinking about so he didn’t force her, “Then stay here and wait for me to come back.”

His female was lovely and snow-white, and he didn’t want to expose her to his tribe too much.

*

That evening, Ryan went to the tribe party.

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu held a flashlight in one hand and sat on the bed, sewing the number one priority for a woman’s period.

For this, she endured her heart’s distress and cut two strips of cotton. In two days, she had heard period and there was no pads here, she could only think of how ways herself.

Once her menstruation began, cotton would get stuffed into it, and she would make do with it.

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu looked at her watch. It was around 9:15 but Ryan had yet to return. She first got into her tent and went to bed.

When Ryan did come back, it was late at night.

Berson took out a few barrels of fruit wine he had brewed and invited the people to drink together. The guys rushed up to take him up on it and had gotten tossed.

Ryan went into his house and saw the tent next to the fireplace was closed. The firelight reflected on the tent’s side and revealed the hazy, petite figure inside.

Ryan squatted in front of the tent and hooked his long fingernail in the zipper. When he went to pull down, he paused.

The air was filled with a gluttonous sweetness, as if something had subtly bloomed. Like it were open, ready to be crushed into juice.

——The smell was coming from the girl in the tent.

Ryan’s eyes were slightly heavy and he opened the tent immediately.

. . .

. . .

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu was too tired to continue sewing so she had fallen deeply asleep. She only felt that something was going on inside her. She groaned but didn’t want to wake up.

Then she dreamed that she was walking in a snowstorm. A cold wind lifted her skirt and her body was suddenly cold.

She opened her eyes and saw Ryan had come back and squatting in front of her, staring at her. . .

When Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu noticed something, she blushed furiously and tried to lift her legs, “You. . .”

Originally, that wasn’t a dream. Ryan had peeled back her clothes and had separated her legs, his focus on her.

“Don’t move,” Ryan held down her legs and his voice was particularly low, and the dim, dark light in his eyes didn’t shift.

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu cried out quickly. How could someone do this? She extended her small, white foot and said, “Go away!”

Ryan caught her delicate ankle and kindly reminded, “You’re injured.”

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu followed his gaze to see that the scarlet drops on the trousers tossed aside were especially startling.

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu’s body stiffened.

She had clearly counted the days and it wasn’t until the day after tomorrow that she was to start her period. . .

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu wanted to sink into the ground with embarrassment. Her period had come ahead of schedule and was now caught by Ryan. Was there anything more embarrassing than this?

——Of course.

Ryan lifted the girl’s leg around the waist and stretched out his other hand, scratching at her delicate place. His fingers came away stained with red and he asked in a low pitch, “This place will bleed every month?”

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu: “. . .”

Because of her shyness, the girl’s whole body was a seductive shade of pink. She hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly nodded.

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu finally realized that if she didn’t explain everything to him, then the next time she had her period, he’d probably strip her and check it again.

This wasn’t the first time he’d done something like this.

“It’s not an injury. Just a physiological phenomenon. . .” Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu lifted her lips and tried to disengage his hands from her body. She bit her lips and blood pooled on them, “Once a month, for about three to five days, like the estrus of your race’s females.”

Ryan said: “The leopard female’s don’t bleed.”

“. . .That’s because they aren’t primates.”

Ryan: “How do you fix it?”

Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu could not go out now. She pressed her flushed face to the pillow and said: “You can help me by bringing the things in the cabinets over here. . .”

*

After two days, Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu didn’t respond to Ryan.

Aside from getting angry, there was also a kind of indescribable shame. . . The most intimate and tender place of a girl’s body was just so casually looked at by him!

While Jǐ Xiǎo Ōu was angry and Ryan was sulking, the beastman finally returned from the east.

And brought back news about Pat.
