Chapter 1033: Something Which I Never Dared To Wish For Even In My Dreams Actually Came True.
The stone bowl in his hand fell to the ground with a crash that shook Peter’s heart.
He was a constant presence hovering around the edges of hell with only one hand desperately clutching onto an anchor outside to stop himself from being sucked in. This king of stray beasts, this demon-like being feared by all—actually started crying.
The bloody veins in those bulging eyes faded as huge tears splashed down.
Natalie was still weak, but she held a comforting smile. She shifted her head slightly to look at Peter. “Silly boy. Isn’t this a good thing? Why are you crying?”
“I… I am not crying.” Peter hastily wiped away his tears before kissing Natalie deeply. After a long while, he said in a trembling voice, “Something which I never dared to wish for even in my dreams actually came true. I am your partner. I can rightfully stay by your side and take care of you and our children.”
“Mmm, you are my partner. My only partner and my most beloved partner… the one who will forever be by my side.” Natalie held Peter’s cheek gently as she smiled with exceptional warmth.
“But… how?” Peter could not understand. In the Beast World, there had never been a case of a stray beast being able to become a partner again.
Natalie exchanged smiling looks with Gu Mengmeng, with a camaraderie that only females possessed.
For reasons unknown, Peter just could not control the corners of his lips. The moment Natalie smiled, he just wanted to follow suit. Even if he didn’t know why, as long as she was smiling, it must be something that he should be happy about too.
“Tell me, mmm?” Peter gently hooked Natalie’s chin as he cajoled her.
Natalie glanced at Gu Mengmeng, who nodded. Only then did Natalie say, “It was the Great Messenger who begged the Beast Deity for a solution. The process was very difficult and required your powerful capabilities and your undying love for me. It was a gamble with only a 10 percent chance of success. But for our future’s sake, I decided to take the risk and pushed you to that painful situation, and let you endure that torment. I am sorry…”
Peter held Natalie’s hand. “No, you did the correct thing. As long as I can be with you properly. I can endure any kind of pain.”
Natalie smiled blissfully before continuing. “When the rainy season just started, the Great Messenger came to see me. She asked if I was willing to take you on as my partner again and give the children a proper family. After all, if we cannot shed off your stray beast status, our children would also become stray beasts. For our children and for us…”
Peter tightened his grip on Natalie’s hand and kissed it to indicate his support.
Natalie’s smile was tinged with relief. “To reverse the mating contract, we had to destroy the filthy stray beast blood flowing in your body and recreate your flesh and bones. It is an extremely painful process, and one will never survive it without powerful capabilities. Even though you are a fifth-level beast, there was only a 30 percent success rate. We could only use my blood to cleanse the filth in yours, so if you didn’t love me as much as you did, you might have lost control and bit my neck to suck my blood.”
Peter’s heart thumped when he heard that. Just visualizing that image made his heart ache.
