Beauty and the Beasts

Brother Leopard’s flabby meat trembled. “What do you want?”

“Nothing.” Winston looked at him with a calm and unruffled gaze. When Brother Leopard clearly heaved out a sigh of relief, he then said in an undulating tone, “I’ll just return to you what you did to my people.”

After saying that, he grabbed Brother Leopard’s wrist and clenched it lightly. The person in the bathtub let out an even more agonizing cry.

Fresh blood formed a red cloud in the bathtub, and a twisted and deformed arm was reflected from the surface. When it was picked up, there was just a bare wrist.

With his limb broken off at the bone but the ligament still connected, when the ligament was pulled straight, Brother Leopard was in so much pain that his face muscles kept on trembling. His eyes rolled and only the whites could be seen.

Winston didn’t wish to cripple him. He gently tugged at the ligament with the other hand. The ligament snapped like a rubber band and even bounced a little.

Brother Leopard held onto his broken arm, and agonizing cries kept ringing out. His bloody wound was unconsciously soaked in the water, and the agonizing cry changed its pitch. The water in the bathtub was immediately dyed a bright red.

Winston mashed the hand up into a ball, then tossed it in the toilet bowl, flushing it down. He then walked over to the sink and checked himself out in the mirror as he washed his hands.

“I have no intention of complete eradication. As long as you don’t offend me, we can survive on the same piece of land.” After saying that, Winston turned off the tap, swung his hands, then headed out.

The woman outside was so scared that she fell weakly to the ground. After Winston was gone, she scrambled into the bathroom. “Brother Leopard, Brother Leopard, how are you? Ahh!”

When the woman saw the horrible plight in the bathroom upon entering, she let out a scream and fled.

…

Winston accidentally got some blood onto his clothes. Upon reaching home, he took a bath and dealt with the bloodstains.

When Bai Qingqing came home, she happened to see him coming down while wearing a bathrobe.

She asked casually, “Why did you take a bath at this time?”

“I got dirty,” Winston said, then walked over to her side, placed his big palm on her head, and rubbed it gently.

Bai Qingqing felt like a child when she was with Winston. It was as if she was his daughter.

She was stumped by her own imagination and ran off in embarrassment. She sat amongst the pile of thin vines and started weaving the big nest.

Parker’s eyes gleamed. “They’ve arrived? I want to weave, too.”

Bai Qingqing said in contempt, “Hurry up and go take a shower. You’re filled with the scent of the car. Look at how clean Winston keeps himself, taking a shower even though he’s at home. Confess, how many days has it been since you last washed up?”

Parker immediately shut up. He wasn’t going to tell his mate that he hadn’t showered for seven days.

Only after he fell quiet did his fatigue show. His dark eye circles were almost reaching his cheeks, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Bai Qingqing suddenly felt heartache for Parker. She pushed him and said, “Hurry and go wash up. After that, go to sleep. I have another day of rest tomorrow.”

Only then did Parker turn docile and left his mate’s side.

“Ssss~” Curtis flicked out his tongue and looked at Winston as if he was sizing him up.

Parker had also smelled the scent of blood. When he went upstairs, he said casually, “Winston, come over for a while.”

“En.” Winston followed him upstairs.

Curtis didn’t go up. He sat down next to Bai Qingqing and helped to weave the big nest for the five of them to sleep in.

After entering the room, Parker lowered his voice and said, “Speak up, did you secretly eat outside?”

Winston was stunned. Before he could explain, Parker continued, “Don’t try to lie to me. I smelled the scent. Where did you hunt? I’ll help you to keep it a secret. Hurry up and tell me. I want to go and hunt, too.”

Winston’s lips twitched and he said, “This isn’t blood from prey. It’s human blood.”

Parker’s face instantly fell, looking uninterested.
