Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 1046: Chapter 765: Love and Pain (2)

Lu Xiao, being her Beast Husband, is completely incapable of resisting the temptation of her pheromones. Coupled with the influence of "Return Nest," even a will of steel would falter!

Then, he moved.

Shen Tang didn’t even see how he did it, only felt a whirlwind, and her back collided with the soft grass.

"Uh..."

Lu Xiao was pressing on her, his hands braced by her head, his whole body like a drawn bow, muscles tense and trembling.

He lowered his head to look at her, inhaling the rich fragrance emanating from her, the dark cyan pupils swirling with loss of control.

He was naturally very aware, the female in his arms was in heat.

From the moment they met, he could smell the sweet and alluring scent emitting from her. He had been forcibly enduring the torment along the way; now his rationality was being tortured to collapse, making it difficult to bear.

His teeth were clenched, the veins on his forehead bulging, his adam’s apple swallowing hard. Sweat slipped off his jaw, dropping on her face.

Shen Tang widened her dark eyes, swallowing in fear, somewhat stunned.

Just when she thought Lu Xiao was about to do something, he suddenly got up from on top of her, staggering a few steps away with great effort. Yet the next second, he knelt half on the ground.

His back was to her, hands braced against the gravel, knuckles turned white, shoulders heaving violently.

His voice was hoarse, as if squeezed from the depths of his throat, accompanied by extreme suppressed panting, "Go quickly!"

He was using all his willpower to battle against the mad, uncontrollable instincts within.

"I won’t go." Shen Tang shook her head, stepping over the scattered gravel and branches, walking towards him.

"Tangtang, don’t come over! Please go, I beg you..."

Lu Xiao’s breathing grew increasingly hurried and heavy, his voice carrying an almost shattered plea, every word trembling as if squeezed out through clenched teeth, "I can’t control it..."

Shen Tang’s heart ached, crystalline tears slid down her cheeks.

She remembered what the System had said—there are at least two more explosion periods of Return Nest, each more intense and harder to control than the last.

For Lu Xiao to hold on until now was already a miracle.

The man who was always composed, always gentle, always standing behind her to shield her from all storms, now seemed like a trapped beast, making a final struggle between himself and his instincts.

Shen Tang didn’t care about his disheveled state, but she was determined to help him successfully weather this calamity.

Shen Tang moved to his side, knelt down and reached out to gently cover his face.

At the moment her fingers touched him, Lu Xiao’s whole body shuddered violently, a suppressed, low, beast-like roar came from his throat.

Then, he turned and knocked Shen Tang down onto the ground.

Shen Tang’s back struck the gravel, causing her to suppress a groan. The man pressed on top of her was scorching hot, muscles strained like taut bow strings, breathing hot and ragged into the hollow of her neck, carrying a heavy, wild aroma.

"Ah Xiao..." she softly called to him.

Lu Xiao’s body stiffened for a moment.

He lowered his head to look at her, in those burning eyes, rationality and instinct were making a final pull.

"I...I don’t want to hurt you...but I can’t control it..."

His lips were trembling, veins bulging on his forehead, with scalding sweat dripping onto her face. His voice was hoarse to the point of distortion, "I’m sorry...Tangtang, I haven’t fulfilled my promise to you, haven’t protected you...I haven’t been competent..."

Shen Tang felt as if her heart was being tightly gripped. She shook her head, choking up, "No, you’ve done better. You’ve been great by holding out until now..."

"But I’m almost at my limit..."

She reached out a hand, gently stroking his face, slowly wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, "Then don’t hold back."

Lu Xiao’s pupils suddenly contracted.

"The System said there are two more explosion periods," Shen Tang’s voice was light, her fingers slowly sliding down his sharp jawline, landing on his violently moving adam’s apple, "If this will make you feel a little better..."

She slightly raised her head, lips against his ear,

"Then come at me."

Lu Xiao’s breathing abruptly became heavier.

He turned his head, the tip of his nose brushing against her cheek, his scorching lips almost touching her skin as he spoke, with increasingly suppressed tremors, "No, you don’t know what I’m like when I lose control...I might hurt you...I might..."

"I know." Shen Tang said.

She raised her hand, gently unbuttoning the collar.
