Gu Mengmeng held Elvis’ face in her hands and kissed his chin. With a gentle gaze, she said, “It’s not so serious, don’t take it to heart.”
Elvis turned Gu Mengmeng to face him. “If the authority of the first partner has been challenged, the other family members will also start to create trouble. Every one will want to replace the top position. When that happens, the conflicts within the family will become increasingly fierce. Following that, the female will be subjected to deception, bewitchment and coercion. This kind of situation is a major threat to the family, to the tribe, and even to the entire Beast World.”
Gu Mengmeng was taken aback. She never thought things could turn so grave.
But Elvis’s worries were not unfounded. She was not sure just what kind of battles went on between the males, but she had watched “Empresses in the Palace” and “War and Beauty”. A woman could stoop to anything so as to become an empress. In the Beast World, a male would probably commit even crazier acts over his blind love for a female.
A family would fall apart sooner or later if all the males were plotting to overthrow the first partner and take his place.
A tribe with all the families in this state would self-destruct as time went by. There wouldn’t even be a need for any external enemies.
And if the entire Beast World was full of such families…
What kind of malevolent consequences would there be?
If she was not the Messenger of the Beast Deity, perhaps such matters would be unimportant.
But she happened to be a Messenger of the Beast Deity, and all eyes were on her. If the situation of a partner challenging another partner occurred in her family, it may lead to some crazy butterfly effect. Just look at how the 16 valued women, all pampered First Beauties in their tribes, had all mimicked her kind and gentle ways.
Gu Mengmeng nodded. “I understand. I will speak to Lea and tell him not to do act like that again.”
Elvis kissed Gu Mengmeng’s delicate face and said in a raspy voice, “I am reluctant to do anything that will cause you sadness… but if it is for your safety, I have no choice.”
Gu Mengmeng leaned against Elvis and pressed her face against his chest. Listening to his heart beating until it was in sync with her own, she gave a slight laugh and nuzzled gently. “I know you love me and I know Lea would never hurt me. Don’t worry, such a thing won’t happen.”
Elvis sighed softly. “I hope so.”
That night, Gu Mengmeng slept in the tree hole while Elvis sat by the entrance with her little hand in his. He used his chest as her pillow and his tail as her blanket. Elvis also discreetly released a little beast energy to chase off the surrounding insects, so that Gu Mengmeng could have a peaceful sleep.
Lea didn’t return that night. They didn’t know where he went.
When Gu Mengmeng woke up the next morning, her three sons were obediently sprawled beside her. The comatose Chixuan was nestled comfortably in her arms, as if just asleep.
Lea was preparing breakfast and acted as if yesterday’s incident didn’t happen.
Elvis called Burke aside and instructed him to take good care of Gu Mengmeng. This made Gu Mengmeng feel somewhat incredulous… he was actually going to allow her to spend time alone with Burke? She had thought he would definitely come along.
She was not used to this sudden magnanimity of his.
