Beauty in the beast world-Chapter 282: Calming her mate

"His Majesty has returned from the hunt!" A loud announcement outside the castle gained everyone’s attention sitting in the living room. There were no growls or barks but instead menacing hisses filled the entire snake tribe. The air around all of the guests turned rigid as they sensed a higher-level beastman making his way in their direction. The wolf king together with his queen and the others stood up from their seats while gazing at the entrance of Snake Castle.

Mona hugged the lion cubs to her chest and waited with bated breath until she caught sight of a large black snake entering the castle. Shining coal-like scales and slit green eyes that shone. Within no time, the said Black snake shifted into its Beastman form before covering himself with a robe that her sister-in-law handed over. Then she saw the snake beastman embracing Lyra in a crushing hug. This must be the Snake King. Thought Mona as she saw the intimate interaction between her brother’s mate and the Snake beastman.

"I’m back, Lilly" Blake ignored all the prying eyes inside the room that were looking at him because his eyes were only on his most important person. His mate. She came first and everything else was next.

"Welcome back" answered Lyra while smiling at him. Blake made sure to check if the clothing she was wearing was warm enough and only then did shift his attention to the guests occupying his castle.

"Wolf King" With a brief nod to Lucas’ father, he was about to head inside to only get stopped by his mate. She tugged at his arm before looking in a certain direction, "That is Lucas’ brother-in-law, the Tiger King" Lyra didn’t want her mate to commit an unnecessary mistake due to lack of information. According to Blake’s standing, the only ones he must greet are the other Beast kings present inside the room. Victor was another story but King Sheru was a stranger as well as a powerful individual so respecting him was what they must do as King and Queen of the Snake tribe.

Realizing his mate’s motives, Blake followed her line of sight before greeting King Sheru with a curt nod. The latter acknowledged it with his own light bow. Blake then left that place saying that he would return after washing up and Lyra excused herself before following behind him. She didn’t want to leave but had no choice because she felt something was wrong in the way her Blake was looking at her. His gaze was adamant about wanting her company and hence she followed suit.

"That slimy bastard" Victor on the other hand clicked his tongue in displeasure as he felt jealous of Blake taking his mate away.

As the couple left the living room and walked deeper into the castle, Lyra noticed that her mate was oddly silent. He had his jaw clenched while taking long strides toward a certain direction. His demeanor looked rushed and was filled with unease.

Lyra was worried but also was falling behind due to difficulty in keeping up with his steps. So she couldn’t help but voice out, "Blake, walk a little slower, it is hard for me"

Blake hearing his mate stopped in his steps before turning back, "I’m sorry" he briefly said before he picked his mate up from the ground, "But I can’t go any slower because I feel like I will really die if I do that"

Lyra blinked her eyes in confusion, "What do you mean by that?" he was saying weird things making her worry, "Are you alright? Did you get hurt while hunting...Ah!" her words came to a sudden halt when Blake crushed his lips on to hers. She was still in his arms as he sucked on her lips as though he had been starving for something.

Blake felt his head dizzy and his eyes blurry. His poison suddenly started to act up back on the hunting grounds which made him rush back lest he hurt his tribesmen. Just like all the venom-filled beastmen, once in a while, he had to deal with poison trying to overwhelm his judgment which in turn increased his blood lust. During their training time in the past, Demir helped him suppress his venom and Blake did the same to the former. But after mating both of them had not experienced this until now...Blake nuzzled his face against the crook of his mate’s neck before whispering, "My Lilly....my mate"

"Tell me what’s wrong, Blake?" asked Lyra feeling the trembles of his arm. It was like he was suppressing something and Lyra didn’t like that. She wanted to learn everything about her mates.

However, Blake didn’t answer that because he once again started to walk making Lyra surprised. For now, she decided to stay silent and wait. She could feel that something was bothering her mate and didn’t want to aggravate it further by asking unnecessary questions.

Lyra hugged her mate’s neck while he carried her to his room. She had little time to think before she was settled on the bed as Blake climbed on top of her. She noticed how he put his entire weight on her which was unlike him and pried open her legs apart.

"Blake?" Lyra traced her fingers along his face before rubbing his eyelid which was hiding his unfocused eyes. And when he opened his eyes, she could only see raw desire inside them that seemed feral and unrestrained.

Lyra then felt a movement in her lower half when Blake removed her panties before pushing her skirt up. He gripped her waist as leverage before plunging himself into her.

"Mmm" A muffled moan left Lyra’s mouth as Blake continued to piston himself in and out of her. When she tried to touch her mate’s face, he gripped her arms before settling them above her head. It was like he couldn’t tolerate any interruption while he fucked his mate.

All Lyra could do was stay still and enjoy the pleasure she was receiving. This was not lovemaking....because it felt more like Blake’s primal instinct taking charge of making sure to keep his mate filled with his seeds. And he did just that as he gave his final thrust and came inside her.

Lyra breathed roughly while nestling her face against her mate’s sweaty shoulder. As both of them lay in each other’s embrace relishing the aftermath of mating, Blake slowly released her arms before getting up together with Lyra. He soothingly rubbed his mate’s back while she relaxed in his arms.

"Have you calmed down?"

"Yes...I have"
