Chapter 432 

The guy’s expression was calm, his usual edge dialed way down. At a glance, Nyx almost thought he’d gotten his memory back. Before she could process, he took her hand, and she dazedly followed him into his place. 

A sweet–tangy smell hung in the air. Seafarion brought over a steaming bowl of soup. Just made it–careful, it’s hot, he warned gently. 

Nyx sipped it slowly. Then a big hand settled on her full stomach. She paused, glancing at Seafarion. 

“I’ve been learning some massage techniques lately, he explained softly. Til rub your tummy–it’ll feel better and help digestion.” 

After all his doting, he rarely initiated touch. Today, though, something had shaken him up, flipping his usual restraint. Nyx raised an eyebrow but didn’t say no. 

The sofa was decked out with soft cushions. She sank in, cozy as could be, and started drifting off. Seeing her relax. Seafarion picked his moment. “What’d you cat out there earlier, Nyx?” 

“A place in the north part of town–Styria style, Nyx mumbled, eyes shut, listing off dishes in bits and pieces. 

“Did you like it, Nyx?” he asked. 

Nyx nodded, then shook her head. “It was alright, but not as good as your cooking.” 

One honest line, and the guy next to her was over the moon. He kept digging into which dishes she liked, planning to learn them himself. 

“Did you get carsick today?” he asked. 

Nyx nodded honestly. “Just a little bit,” she said. 

Truth be told, the driver’s skills were pretty good that day. It was Nyx who’d been too impatient, urging the driver to speed up, which inevitably made her dizzy again. 

“But I feel fine now,” she said. After downing a bowl of soup, she felt revived, her whole body at ease. 

“How come you’re back so early?” Nyx wasn’t just on the receiving end of questions–she turned it around on him. “Not busy with work today?” 

Seafarion had learned to be straightforward. “Because I missed you. I wanted to see you.” 

Work was, of course, busy. In his position, there was always an endless pile of things to do. But Nyx was his top priority. 

Those tasks could wait a day or two. Nyx, though, was one of a kind—irreplaceable—and he couldn’t let someone else snatch her away. 

They chatted idly about trivial things for a while. Seafarion gradually scooted closer to Nyx, sitting beside her, then suddenly asked, “Did you go out with Kai because he’s good–looking?” 

Since the sugar baby deal turned out to be a misunderstanding, it meant Nyx had gone out with Kai willingly–letting him hold her, kiss her, all of her own accord. 

Nyx lifted her eyelids, her sleepiness fading by half. She realized at some point she’d ended up wrapped in his arms. Seafarion had stretched out his long arm to hold her, gently rubbing her stomach. He gazed at her intently, waiting for her 

answer. 

“Part of it was that,” Nyx replied carefully, “but not the whole reason.” There were tons of good–looking cople in the world,

and she didn’t like every single one of them. 

“Part of the reason?” Seafarion chewed over those words cautioudy, then ventured an invitatio Tomorrow, could we go on a date?” 

His rival’s quick progress had sparked a fierce sense of urgency in him. He couldn’t afford in donde and we gon That guy didn’t have much going for him–Nyx was just momentarily swayed by his looks, that’s a turd sand beg looking too, no worse than Kai. 

“Sure, but not tomorrow,” Nyx said, wanting to cheer Seafarion up a bit. Let’s pack another time. Tomy Tee online event with the Breaking Chains crew. 

The show had aired most of its episodes, and lately, there were a ton of fan events. Her character was insanely popular, almost overshadowing the leads. She couldn’t miss a single event. Work would take up nearly the whole day–there m no time to go anywhere else. 

“How about the day after?” he asked. 

They settled on pushing the date back a day. Seeing Seafarion content, with no sign of tears, Nyx feud nough w head home. With work tomorrow, she needed to rest early that night. 

It was ten o’clock at night. The sky outside had gone pitch black. All the lights in her room were off. Sy ook aan he bath, climbed into bed with limp hands and feet, and soon slipped into a deep sleep. 

The house was dead quiet, with only the soft rise and fall of her breathing filling the space. A pair of glowing en besty eyes appeared silently outside her window. 

The fifteenth floor was high enough to deter human thieves, but for an agile leopard, it was like walking on fat gro Under the cover of darkness, Kai evaded every city camera, following the intel he’d gathered to sneak all the way to Nyx’s place. 

He didn’t mean to do anything bad. He was just in a sour mood and couldn’t resist wanting to see Nyx 

After climbing fifteen floors, though, the bedroom curtains were drawn tight, blocking everything inside. He couldn’t catch a glimpse of Nyx’s face. 

Kai was silent and irritated. He stretched out a paw and pushed at the glass in front of him. With a faint creak,” the window actually gave way and swung inward. 

The leopard froze stiff, wondering why the window was not locked. Instinctively, he wanted to step back but nearly fell. He caught himself just in time. The temptation was right there in front of him, too hard to resist. 

He couldn’t see Nyx through the curtains. So he’d just go in for a quick look and nothing else, and he’d leave right after 

After a long internal struggle, the leopard shut his eyes and slipped through the window into Nyx’s bedroom in one swift motion. A wave of warm fragrance hit him, nearly knocking him dizzy. 

This was where Nyx lived–her scent was everywhere. The leopard sniffed left and right, his tail shooting straight up. He rubbed his head hard against spots where her scent was strongest, trying to soak it up and leave his own mark 

He lifted his head, his eyes locking onto the bed. Nyx was clearly deep in sleep, her cheeks flushed, her breathing steady. Try as he might, Kai couldn’t hold back. He leaned in and took a deep sniff at her neck. 

Nyx was dreaming of a big tree. Maybe because she missed her life in that other world, the Divine Tree often visited her dreams, weaving a cradle for her, keeping her company through the long nights. 

In her dream, she nestled in her mother’s embrace, feeling utterly at peace. But tonight’s dream took an unexpected turn. 

A leopard appeared out of nowhere, circling her, then lunging forward to sniff her fiercely, starting at her neck and working

his way all over. Nyx reached out to grab him, but he darted back agilely and scampered off.

Not long after, he crept back with silent steps. She tried a few more times but couldn’t catch him–not even a single strand of leopard fur. 

Until the leopard returned to her side, no longer content with sniffing. He buried his head and lightly licked her exposed ankle. A rush of hot breath shot through her whole body. Nyx shivered and snapped her eyes open. 

It was morning. Nyx sat up and rubbed her forehead, feeling like that dream was way too real. She glanced around–no leopard, no sign of anyone in the room. 

Was it just a case of thinking about him all day and dreaming of him at night? I went out with Kai during the day, so I dreamed of him?‘ she wondered. 

With less than half an hour until her alarm, Nyx got up instead of going back to sleep, washing up and getting ready for her agent and assistant to pick her up. 

A few recently worn outfits hung on the bedroom rack. She scanned them, found none to her liking, and started toward the closet–then stopped short. 

Bending down, she plucked a few light golden hairs from her jeans. They looked like cat fur, but tougher, coarser- something left by a big feline. 

Nyx narrowed her eyes, lost in thought. The doorbell chimed once as a heads–up, followed by the sound of the door opening. Her agent and assistant had arrived. 

Helly bolted in fastest, her footsteps pattering to the bedroom door. She knocked. “Boss! You awake?” 

The moment the door swung open, her cheerful grin froze solid. She sucked in a shocked breath, leaned closer to sniff Nyx, then stumbled back two hundred meters like she was rolling away. 

Her panicked reaction was like a small animal sensing a predator. Marilyn and Gavin jumped too, exchanging confused looks, unsure why Helly was freaking out. 

She’d always gotten along great with Nyx–no way she was scared of her or avoiding her. 

“Your room.” Marilyn started hesitantly, giving Nyx a questioning look. “Was there someone else here?” 

Nyx shook her head and stepped aside, gesturing for her to come in and help pick out clothes. 

On the way to the event venue, Helly was unusually quiet for once. Normally, her mouth never stopped–endless topics, chattering with Nyx the whole way. Today, she slumped in her seat, silent, occasionally sneaking glances at Nyx. 

Marilyn and Gavin had no clue what was up with her, but Nyx had a hunch. 

She didn’t bother Helly’s sulking, giving her space to cool off. When they reached the venue and Helly still seemed shaky, too nervous to stick close, Nyx called over Gavin. “You’ll have to work extra today–fill in for Helly and stay with me.” 

Gavin didn’t mind and even urged Helly to see a doctor if she wasn’t feeling well. With a kind boss and caring coworkers, Helly welled up with tears, streaming like a river. 

‘I–I didn’t mean for this,’ she thought. ‘It’s just that Nyx reeks of a big demon–like she rolled around with one all night!” That scent was overpowering. Humans couldn’t smell it, but demons picked it up loud and clear. Getting too close felt like a big demon was clamping her throat, warning her to back off. She was just a frail little demon–she couldn’t handle it. 

‘If I get too close to her, I might accidentally revert to my true form out of fear!‘ Helly whipped out her phone and t the demon clan group chat.

Little Fox: [Wahhh, my boss might’ve been targeted by a big demon–so scary“) 

Little Sparrow: IA big demon? Is it going to eat your boue? What do we do 

Little Sparrow: (I remember you saying your boss is a good human–you brag about her a lo 

Little Fox: [Eat her? Noooo, please no] 

Little Fox: [She is so pretty and smells so nice–I love her. But today the’s covered in big demon stench. It scared me to death, wahhh.J 

Little Fox: [No! I don’t want my boss to get eaten!] 

Little Sparrow’s casual question sent Helly into a panic, her tail nearly popping out. Old tales of roque demons exting humans flooded her mind. 

Sure, Nyx didn’t look like she was missing any limbs, but with a fierce demon like that on her trail, the couldn’t escape 

“Nyx smells so good–that demon probably can’t bear to eat her right away. It’d sniff her, lick her to satisfy its cravings first she thought. 

Imagining her boss eventually getting devoured by a terrifying demon, Helly broke down, spamming the group with 99- crying messages. 

The commotion dragged a few lurking big demons out of the woodwork. 

Peregrine: [Alright, stop crying. I’ll go check it out.] 

Peregrine: [Lord Kai banned eating humans ages ago. Let’s see which idiot dares to defy him!] 

Brown Bear: [I’m going too.] 

-Brown Bear: [Once we catch that punk, I’ll twist its head off.] 

More and more big demons piped up, itching to teach any man–eating rogue a lesson. 

Old Ox: [Hold on, could it be a misunderstanding?] 

Old Ox: [I’ll go instead. Little Fox, what’s your boss’s name? Where is she now?] 

Little Fox: [Thank you, everyone!] 

Little Fox: [My boss is an actress named Nyx. She’s at the Breaking Chains online event right now–179 Sunset Road, Bovine District!] 

That set the group off like a bomb. 

Little Squirrel: [Nyx?] 

Little Squirrel: [Your boss is Nyx? The Nyx from Breaking Chains?] 

Red–Crowned Crane: [Holy crap!] 

Red–Crowned Crane: [I’m watching the livestream!] 

Big Black Bear: [Me too!] 

Big Yellow Dog: [I’m Princess Nyx’s loyal pup! No one’s allowed to hurt her!]

The group erupted with demons big and small, each more typed than the law to a blue, the rat surned imo a Nyx fan 

club. 

Helly stared at her buzzing phone, dumbfounded. Nyx is super propeder with demonst due thought 

As they bickered over who should go, a timid Sunflower Parrot popped up: 10m! 

Sunflower Parrots fit might be a misunderstanding! 

He called it a misunderstanding but stumbled over his words, not explaining what he meant. The fired–up demous quickly lost patience, diving back into heated detrates and even starting a pell to you on who’s best suited to protect Nyx. 

Halfway through the voting, with the competition heating up, the rarely active group leader suddenly appeared. 

Kai: I’ll protect her.) 

It’s Lord Kaif‘ Helly thought. Her eyes lit up with excitement, nearly dropping her phone. As a little fox demon who’d once almost been skinned for a scarf, she owed her life to Kal’s demon rescue organization 

She’d adored him for years, never meeting him in person. When she heard he’d come to Broskel, she’d moved there and got a job, hoping for a chance to visit–yet never got the opportunity. Today, she’d finally get to thank him face–to–face 

With Lord Kai stepping in, he’d surely catch and punish whatever bad demon was after Nyx.
