Chosen Mate Of The Beastmen Empire novel Chapter 155

Chapter 155 

It was just a serum designed to enhance her physical condition–nothing harmful. He had gone to great lengths to gather the rare ingredients and have it specially made for her, afraid that an experimental female like her might have too short a 

lifespan. 

He hadn’t told her beforehand, partly because he wanted to mess with her a little. After all, she was always so cold toward 

him. 

But he hadn’t expected her to react like this. She behaved as if she didn’t trust him at all. 

Jaws no longer felt like explaining himself. Even if he explained, Nyx probably wouldn’t believe him. 

Letting go of her gently, he closed the storage case, got up, and left without a word. 

Nyx, lost in anxious thoughts for a long time, eventually calmed down and realized–nothing was happening. Her body wasn’t reacting the way she feared. 

Confused, she unknowingly drifted off to sleep. When she woke up, she felt surprisingly light and energized, more refreshed than she had ever been. 

She grabbed something nearby and tested her strength–her grip had clearly improved. Her vision, sense of smell, and overall perception had also sharpened. Her entire body had become significantly stronger. 

Is it because of that serum from last night? Have I misjudged Jaws?‘ Nyx touched her ears awkwardly. 

Though Jaws often teased and provoked her, he had never actually hurt her. 

Remembering the look of sadness in his eyes when he left the night before, Nyx felt a little conflicted. 

When breakfast time came, Jaws was nowhere to be seen. 

By lunchtime, Jaws‘ subordinates brought her food, but there was still no sign of him. 

No one came to finish off her leftovers either, and they were eventually taken away. Nyx hesitated, pacing back and forth in her room before making up her mind to go check on Jaws. 

She thought, ‘What if he is angry and decides not to take me back to the Empire anymore?‘ 

Using that as an excuse, she immediately set off. 

She arrived at his quarters without any trouble. No one stopped her–on the contrary, they seemed happy to point her in the right direction. 

She knocked twice, but there was no response. 

“It’s not locked, ma’am. You can go right in,” one of Jaws‘ trusted subordinates said respectfully. 

He knew that Jaws was highly territorial, but when it came to Nyx, Jaws was clearly different. There was no way Jaws’d be angry about this. 

In fact, Jaws would even be overjoyed that she was coming to him on her own. 

Without overthinking it, Nyx pushed open the door. 

The first thing she saw was a familiar food tray on the table–the same one from her lunch earlier, now spotless. 

Nyx was speechless, but at least it put her mind at ease.

Chapter 155 

Looking around, she noticed his room wasn’t nearly as lavish as she had imagined. It was even plainer than her own quarters. 

There was barely any furniture, with no decorations at all. 

The air reeked of alcohol, and empty bottles were scattered all over the floor beside the bed. 

Interstellar liquor was incredibly strong, with a faint aroma and intense numbing effects. Even one bottle could leave an ordinary person with a massive headache for hours, so binge drinking was almost unheard of 

She didn’t believe Jaws had consumed this much–it was practically self–destructive. 

‘Isn’t he worried about alcohol poisoning? Nyx frowned deeply, thinking. 

Besides the bottles, she also spotted several used syringes. 

Carefully picking one up, she examined it. It was different from what he had injected into her–these were the type meant to suppress his loss of control. 

She thought, ‘Injecting so many at once?‘ 

Remembering what Jaws had said about these drugs, Nyx suddenly felt short of breath. 

In her mind, Jaws had always been unbelievably strong, but now, he seemed like he was barely holding on. 

As she worried, her enhanced hearing suddenly picked up a strange sound. Following the noise, she traced it to the bathroom–it sounded like… pain? 

Nyx’s heart clenched. Without thinking, she shoved the door open. 

The door slammed hard against the wall. 

Inside, Jaws froze and hunched over, gripping something tightly in his hands–something very familiar. His gaze turned dark and dangerous as he stared at the doorway. 

If it had been anyone else, he would have killed them on the spot. But it was Nyx. 

“Nyx?” he asked. 

In response, Nyx disappeared in a flash, slamming the door shut behind her. 

She cursed her heightened senses–she had heard way too much. Even after fleeing the room, she could still clearly make out the low, pleased chuckle coming from inside. 

She couldn’t stay here a second longer. 

His subordinates watched her bolt out of the room, utterly confused. They thought, ‘What has our boss done? He has scared off the little female, and yet he isn’t chasing after her?‘ 

A long time passed before Jaws finally emerged, dripping with cold water, and his eyes tinged with red. 

“She’s back in her room. Hasn’t come out since,” someone whispered. 

Jaws nodded. “Got it.” 

The moment he stepped inside her room, a pillow flew straight at him, hitting his chest instead of his face. He caught it effortlessly. 

His previous gloom vanished completely. He couldn’t stop himself from smiling.

The burle keepsake was the only thing keeping him going–there was no way he’d return it.

He hadn’t expected to be caught red–handed by Nyx. 

“What were you doing in my room?” Jaws leaned in with a smile. “Worried about me?” 

“Why would I be worried about you?” Nyx denied it immediately. But if she was being honest, she was a little concerned about jaws condition. 

With Jaws keeping everything under control, Crimson Sands was relatively stable. If he died, these space pirates would probably start causing real trouble. 

Honestly, she thought Jaws needed those restorative agents more than she did. 

Remembering the potion from last night, she stole a glance at Jaws and cleared her throat, still unsure how to apologize for the misunderstanding 

But before she could say anything, Jaws lowered his head first. “Sorry. Yesterday was my fault.” 

After reflecting all night, he realized everything had been his mistake. 

Nyx had seen the shameless, thick–skinned Jaws plenty of times, but hearing his voice tremble as he apologized for the first time was… unexpected. It left a strange feeling in her chest. 

Facing Jaws, she still couldn’t bring herself to say the kind of soft words she used with others. She snorted coldly. “Realized your mistake? Just send me back to the Empire, and I won’t hold it against you.” 

As she spoke, Nyx carefully observed Jaws‘ expression, trying to figure out if he was actually going to send her back.
