Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO

If there was anything in the messengers tribe that made Gu Mengmeng delighted, it would probably be the buildings. This place was different from Saint Nazaire. Nobody lived in caves or in other words, all native tribesman and females who came to participate in the beauty pageant did not need to stay in caves. Over here, there are old houses that resembled those in traditional villages and they were built using blocks of blue-stones. In all fairness, this could not be considered as luxurious because if you were to see this scene in the present world, it would only be a protected cultural heritage or a building, in imminent danger, which had large red words of ‘demolish’ stuck over it. But in this world, it showcased how the messengers tribe was different from the rest and was superior over others.

“Are you all representing Saint Nazaire to compete in the beauty pageant?” A guard, standing in front of a stone house, asked Elvis.

“Yes,” Elvis replied.

The guard threw a glance at Lea and did not say a word. He just turned his body aside to make way, implying that they could enter through the entrance.

After they entered the house, Elvis placed Gu Mengmeng on a stone table before taking action to clean the house with Lea.

The house was very bare and was just a simple building. In the present world, even the set-up of children’s playing-house was much more human than this. It was not Gu Mengmeng being picky but this little house was not even half as big as her hostel room. Now, with the three of them inside, it appeared rather squeezed. If Elvis or Lea were to evolve into their original form, the frame of this torn house would probably fall apart.

There was a stone bed in the room. It’s surface was full of bumps and hollows but surprisingly, the sides were very smooth and glossy. It was not an exaggeration to say that…this bed was so used till it became rusty.

Elvis and Lea took out a tiger skin from their bag and laid it on the bed. Then, they positioned Gu Mengmeng’s little pillow properly and folded her large rabbit-skin blanket tidily at one side.

After he finished tidying everything, Elvis carried Gu Mengmeng to the bed and said, “It must have been tiring for you this entire journey. Rest for a while first. I’ll bring the tribesman over to the cave at the back of the mountains for a rest and bring some food back for you at the same time.”

Gu Mengmeng nodded and said, “Take note of your safety and come back quickly.”

Elvis landed a light kiss on Gu Mengmeng’s forehead and after exchanging a gaze with Lea, he left without any other words.

Gu Mengmeng swung her feet by the bed in great boredom while staring at how Lea was arranging the fruits they plucked on the way on the table in order. Then, he took out Gu Mengmeng’s clothes for the next few days and checked them one by one. If any one of them had a problem, he would immediately salvage it while he would place those without any problem properly at one side. His state was carefree and at ease and he did not seem to feel uncomfortable coming back to Sauder.

On the other hand, Gu Mengmeng was not used to interacting with Lea alone so she cleared her throat and asked, “That…they did not recognize you, right? I see how they were all quite normal, they won’t suddenly rush in with some men to catch you, right?”

Lea smiled while turning his head to look at Gu Mengmeng. “Every stone house here resides the First Beauty of every tribe. If they create a ruckus here…that will equal to offending all the tribes at one go. Regardless of whether it’s Sauder or not, they will also not dare to undergo this kind of rash move so you don’t need to worry because it will not happen.”

“Oh…” Gu Mengmeng replied but still felt that there was something not in harmony. She thought for a moment and lifted her head up, saying, “So, they recognized you?”

Lea nodded his head and said, “The guard earlier was my entourage since young. He had been following me ever since I was born. There’s no way he can’t recognize me.”
