Claimed by My Furry Wolf New

Short filmTranscript
00:00My mate's name is Naxos. He's a merman bad-tempered, but beautiful. He hates me. He runs from me.
00:07This was already Naxos's 10th escape this year. Looking at the empty containment cell,
00:12the last bit of patience in my heart went cold. The control bureau sent me a text.
00:18You have one chance to select a new mate? Are you sure you want to choose a new mate?
00:23I remembered the gray wolf next door. He had been secretly glancing at me for a long time.
00:30I would have absolutely nothing to do with him anymore. I put my phone away.
00:34Now, as long as I picked a new mate and dragged Naxos back to fingerprint the paperwork,
00:41I would have absolutely nothing to do with him anymore. On the day of choosing a mate,
00:46I walked up to the gray wolf's containment cell. I had barely knocked. The door opened almost
00:53instantly. The gray wolf was a cool and handsome wolf shifter. His eyes were bright and piercing.
01:00I cut straight to the chase. Are you willing to be my new mate? The gray wolf's eyes lit up
01:06and the
01:06fluffy gray tail hidden behind his back wagged frantically like a windmill. I stared in a
01:12daze. He pulled his tail back, the tips of his ears turning red as he blinked. I am willing.
01:18The gray wolf was named Tristan Cole. He had just arrived at the shifter control bureau this year.
01:24The bureau hadn't matched him with a mate yet. Now, it seemed I had scored a lucky find.
01:32I observed Tristan for a few days. I found that his containment cell was neat and clean and he had
01:38no bad habits. Moreover, he didn't hate succubi. This was a world where humans, shifters and succubi
01:46coexisted. Once shifters reached the age of 22, they would suffer from mental frenzy. They would be
01:53brought to the control bureau under guard. Succubi or humans who had awakened mental soothing abilities
01:59would be responsible for calming the shifters. And the bureau would match the shifters with soothing
02:05mates. My very first match back then was Naxos. He rejected me intensely, loathing the entire succubus
02:13race. Other than me, no one was willing to soothe this bad-tempered, high-maintenance,
02:19and beautiful merman. I still remember the first thing Naxos said to me.
02:25Soothing is fine. But don't touch me with your filthy succubus tail.
02:34I hadn't hidden my succubus tail when I arrived today. Tristan must have seen it. My heart tightened.
02:41I dreaded seeing a look of disgust in his eyes. Instead, I was met with the gaze of a curious
02:47child.
02:47Tristan was staring intently at my tail, his own fluffy gray tail spinning like a windmill behind him.
02:54He looked, exactly like a curious, good puppy.
02:59I blushed quietly, silently tucking my succubus tail behind my back. I asked him nervously.
03:06Why do you keep staring at my tail? A blush crept onto Tristan's handsome face as he pointed at the
03:11tip of my tail.
03:12There's a heart shape at the tip of your tail. It's really pretty. It looks so different from mine.
03:19I was just wondering if it feels different from something fluffy too.
03:23My face flushed crimson. Did he have any idea? A succubus's tail was a symbol of courtship.
03:29Praising a succubus's tail right to her face. That was no different from a blatant confession of love.
03:36I felt the tip of my tail throb and swell. I tucked it away. Hastily. I muttered an excuse. Then
03:43I fled the scene.
03:47Since I had already decided to give up on Naxos. I needed to find him. To terminate our mate bond.
03:54Fortunately, he hadn't thrown away the phone I had given him earlier. I could track him down through that device.
04:00I found him in an exclusive private villa district. When I went inside, Naxos was resting his head on a
04:07strange female human's lap.
04:09Acting all spoiled and affectionate. That look of pure, obsessive adoration was something I had never seen before.
04:18Naxos's face drained of color the moment he saw me.
04:21How did you find me here?
04:23I offered a faint smile.
04:25You kept the phone I gave you.
04:28Barely had the words left my mouth.
04:31When Naxos whipped out the phone.
04:34Hurling it away with tremendous force.
04:37I clenched my fists, pretending not to notice the smashed device.
04:41And kept my eyes on Naxos.
04:43Let's go.
04:45Come back with me.
04:48Naxos didn't move.
04:50But the woman strolled over.
04:51She admired her long, diamond-studded acrylic nails.
04:56She looked me up and down with careless disdain.
04:59Psst.
05:00So you're at Naxos' Suxaba, mate?
05:02You look pretty average for a Suxaba.
05:04Just as overly flashy and annoying as I imagined.
05:08My face darkened at the insult.
05:10I glanced at Naxos.
05:13He remained entirely unmoved.
05:16His gaze was fixed solely on the human before him.
05:21His heart was ice cold.
05:24I took a deep breath.
05:26Are you quite finished?
05:28If so, I'm taking him away.
05:30The human girl tilted her chin up.
05:32He's my merman.
05:34I forbid you from taking him.
05:37Naxos glared at me warily as well.
05:42I shook my head.
05:43My expression instantly turning dead serious.
05:47After a long time without my soothing.
05:50Naxos' volatile mental energy was likely on the verge of eruption.
05:56Miss.
05:57I now suspect you of illegally harboring a highly dangerous, volatile shifter.
06:03Take them all away.
06:04At my command, a pair of control bureau officers rushed in to grab Naxos.
06:09The human girl had probably never seen such a scene before.
06:13She instantly panicked.
06:16Seeing this, Naxos looked at the female human with heartache.
06:21Then he bared his teeth fiercely at me.
06:25I won't let you scare her!
06:28If you dare hurt Chloe, I will loathe you for the rest of my life.
06:34I chuckled, brushing a stray strand of hair behind my ear.
06:39Suit yourself.
06:42Back in the room at the control bureau.
06:45I sterilized Naxos as usual.
06:47I checked his mental frenzy levels.
06:50I set down the medical equipment.
06:53Naxos glared at me on high alert.
06:56Don't even think about forcing a soothing on me.
07:00I won't submit to you.
07:02I nodded.
07:04Seeing that I didn't pester him like usual,
07:07Naxos narrowed his eyes suspiciously.
07:11What are you plotting now?
07:13Playing hard to get?
07:15Thinking it'll make me go soft on you?
07:17Whether he went soft on me or not,
07:19didn't matter anymore.
07:20I turned to leave.
07:22But the moment I took a step,
07:24Naxos grabbed my wrist.
07:26He pulled with such force.
07:28I stumbled right into his arms.
07:30He looped his arms around my neck.
07:32I knew you liked me from the very first time we met.
07:36You like this face of mine.
07:39Beautiful and demonic.
07:40But what can I do?
07:42I absolutely despise filthy suckers.
07:46But it's fine.
07:48If you let me out to see Chloe,
07:52I might just like you a little bit.
07:56The breath against my ear was scorching hot.
07:59I keenly felt Naxos's lips brush against my earlobe.
08:03This was the first time in two years that Naxos had willingly initiated any closeness with me.
08:08Yet it was all for that human supervisor.
08:11Startled,
08:12I quickly shoved him away.
08:14Thrown back onto the sofa with his legs spread wide.
08:18Naxos's eyes flashed with anger and a hint of disbelief.
08:23Evelyn,
08:24you actually pushed me away.
08:27If you want to see Chloe,
08:29take it up with the control bureau.
08:32Whatever you want to do from now on has nothing to do with me.
08:35I smoothed my hair and turned to leave.
08:38Evelyn,
08:38do you have any idea what you're giving up if you walk out that door?
08:43Of course I knew.
08:44I was about to make a clean break with it all.
08:49Naxos had been throwing tantrums for days.
08:52He demanded to see Chloe.
08:55He was whacking his large tail fluke against the door every day.
08:59It made a loud thumping racket.
09:02Tristan and the shifters nearby had been sporting dark circles under their eyes for days.
09:07Left with no choice.
09:09I submitted a request to my superiors.
09:12The request was to let Naxos see Chloe.
09:15The day Naxos went to see Chloe,
09:17the bureau reminded me that the agreement to terminate our supervisory bond had been generated.
09:23All I had to do was take it directly to Naxos to sign.
09:26When I arrived at Naxos' room,
09:29Naxos was just saying goodbye to Chloe.
09:31He held her hand.
09:33He looked at her with eager, pleading eyes.
09:36You have to come back for me.
09:39You must take me back with you.
09:41The woman stared at the manicured nails on the hand he was holding.
09:45She replied absentmindedly.
09:48I know.
09:50I'm about to awaken my soothing abilities soon.
09:54When I do, I'll definitely take you back.
09:57Only then did Naxos reluctantly let go of Chloe's hand.
10:01He waved at her retreating back with longing eyes.
10:05After she was gone,
10:07I stepped forward with the agreement to approach Naxos.
10:11Naxos.
10:12Naxos.
10:13I have something to tell you.
10:17Naxos casually clasped his hands behind his head.
10:21Let's talk about it when we get back.
10:23I'm sleepy now.
10:25I shoved the termination agreement and a pen directly into his arms.
10:30Sign this before you go back to sleep.
10:33Naxos let out a soft scoff through a yawn.
10:35And without even looking, casually scribbled on it with the pen.
10:41Is this good enough?
10:43Tossing the termination agreement carelessly at me,
10:45he slammed the door shut.
10:49Don't disturb my sleep again!
10:51My mind was finally at peace.
10:54Just as he said, I would never disturb him again.
10:57As I was about to leave,
10:59a fluffy gray tail poked out from next door.
11:02The tail swished and twirled, curling like a hook.
11:05The tip twitching with barely contained excitement.
11:10I found myself entirely lured into the room.
11:13The big bad wolf, Tristan, leaned against the doorframe.
11:18He wagged his tail frantically.
11:20Trying to get my attention.
11:22His ears perked forward.
11:24Eyes sparkled with that eager,
11:26puppy-like anticipation.
11:28His smile showed the faintest hint of a canine tooth.
11:31I was in a good mood,
11:33unable to stop the corners of my lips from curling up.
11:36I asked him,
11:37What are you trying to do?
11:39Luring me here with your tail?
11:41He stared at me unblinkingly,
11:43his gaze burning with intensity.
11:45Just wanted to congratulate you on terminating your bond.
11:48And to wish you well on starting a new one soon.
11:51This wolf was truly a walking contradiction.
11:54He had a cool, handsome face.
11:56But his personality was surprisingly innocent.
11:59I thought for a moment.
12:01I asked him,
12:02What is your bonding right?
12:04Every shifter had their own preferred bonding right.
12:07A maid only needed to perform the same action to complete the bonding right with them.
12:12His tail swayed gently unconsciously.
12:15My bonding right is very simple.
12:19It's,
12:20it's kissing the entire body.
12:25In the days following the termination of my bond,
12:28I spent all my time with Tristan.
12:31One day,
12:32we had lunch together in the cafeteria.
12:35Almost everything he picked was meat,
12:37roast beef,
12:39grilled lamb chops,
12:40and fried chicken.
12:41I couldn't help but click my tongue.
12:44A true carnivore.
12:46Tristan blinked.
12:48If I don't eat my fill?
12:52How can I complete the bonding, Ryle?
12:56How can I make my maid happy?
12:58Hearing that,
12:59I nearly choked on my own saliva.
13:02Tristan and I found an empty table and sat down.
13:05A figure suddenly sat down opposite us.
13:08It was Naxos.
13:09Crossing his legs,
13:11he looked at Tristan,
13:12then at me,
13:13and sneered.
13:17Thinking you can make me feel threatened by getting cozy with another shifter?
13:24You really are full of tricks,
13:25Thanks, Evelyn.
13:27Thanks, Evelyn.
13:29Tristan slammed his spoon down.
13:31Watch your mouth, you mermin scum.
13:34His eyes gleamed with ferocity.
13:36He instantly bared his teeth at Naxos.
13:39What a barbaric, disgusting werewolf.
13:42Naxos refused to back down.
13:44Naxos refused to back down.
13:44I frowned at Naxos.
13:46What do you want from me?
13:48Naxos curled his lip.
13:50My phone broke.
13:52Transfer this month's avalanche to me.
13:54Naxos' family sent him to the control center.
13:57After that, they completely washed their hands of him.
14:01Food, clothing, housing, and transportation everything was fully covered by me.
14:06His supervising mate.
14:08But now, I truly had no obligation to foot the bill.
14:12Naxos, I think you're mistaken about something.
14:16You shouldn't be saying that to me.
14:19But to your new mate.
14:21Naxos frowned in confusion.
14:23What do you mean?
14:25I took a sip of my soup.
14:27It means our bond has been terminated.
14:32Naxos froze.
14:35After a long silence, a sudden smirk curled his lips.
14:39He swept his gaze over Tristan and me.
14:42Evelyn?
14:43You're saying all this on purpose.
14:45And hanging around this wolf.
14:48Just to get my attention and make me jealous, aren't you?
14:51Tristan and I shared a look.
14:53Both of us were bewildered.
14:56Naxos stood up.
14:57His face darkened.
15:00Evelyn.
15:01If you want to win my favor.
15:03Stop playing these annoying little games.
15:06I watched his retreating back.
15:09I suddenly felt something.
15:11My two years of devotion had been a complete waste.
15:15Thank goodness I had finally left him.
15:18Tristan's face was full of confusion.
15:21Did this merman suffer a brain injury before?
15:24I burst out laughing.
15:26Stop thinking about other people.
15:30Just eat.
15:33A few days later, I heard from the black bear shifter across the hall.
15:38Naxos was clamoring to get out.
15:40He had started frantically smashing his door.
15:42The bureau had already activated its security protocol.
15:46The protocol was to prevent the room from being shattered.
15:49The very next day, word spread that he had run away again.
15:53He had probably gone looking for that human Chloe.
15:56Again.
15:56I didn't care about anything regarding Naxos.
16:00No matter how much of a scene he made.
16:03It had nothing to do with me.
16:05At that time.
16:06I was busy getting accustomed to the bonding right process with Tristan.
16:10For instance.
16:12Starting with holding hands.
16:13Hugging.
16:14And kissing.
16:16Holding hands and wrapped in an embrace with Tristan.
16:19I saw his tail pop out again.
16:22And couldn't resist reaching out to grab it.
16:25The moment I grabbed it, the man in my arms stiffened.
16:29I asked curiously.
16:30When exactly does your tail appear?
16:33I think it's so fascinating how it just pops out.
16:39Tristan's voice was muffled and slightly husky.
16:43Well, it's when I'm excited.
16:46Whenever I see you, I just can't help but let my tail out.
16:50That was actually quite similar to us, Succubi.
16:53I also like to show my tail in front of the person I liked.
16:57I gently kneaded his fluffy appendage in my palm.
17:00My tone carried a trace of caution.
17:04So, can I show my tail in front of you too?
17:08Of course you can.
17:09In my pack, if two people can show their tails to each other, it means they have completely
17:14bared their hearts.
17:16And let down all their defenses.
17:18His words seemed to trip a switch inside me.
17:22My eyes filled with unched tears.
17:24Then, then I'll let you touch my tail too.
17:28Making up my mind, I revealed my tail.
17:30Letting it slip right into Tristan's palm.
17:33He gently closed his hand around it.
17:35The most beautiful part of my tail was the tip.
17:38It formed a perfect, lovely heart shape.
17:41The heart shape only took on that shape when my heart truly fluttered for someone.
17:45It's a beautiful tail.
17:47I love it.
17:48Said.
17:49His fingers would trace the edge of the heart-shaped tip.
17:53He would do it until I shivered.
17:57Today, I submitted a request to the Bureau to go out and buy a few things.
18:02I brought Tristan along with me.
18:04After shopping for what we needed, we headed to a dessert shop.
18:09Carrying the takeout bags in one hand, I linked my other arm through Tristan's and smiled.
18:14As we walked out the door, we brushed past a couple.
18:17The man called out in surprise.
18:19Evelyn?
18:20I froze and turned to look.
18:23The man standing behind me wore a black overcoat.
18:26His hands were shoved in his pockets.
18:28He is Naxos.
18:30The woman beside him was none other than Chloe.
18:33Naxos's gaze darted back and forth.
18:35It was fixated on where my arm was linked with Tristan's.
18:39I felt absolutely nothing.
18:41I simply gave him a polite, brief nod.
18:44Naxos glared intensely at our linked arms.
18:47His displeasure was palpable.
18:49Why did you bring him out here?
18:52And why are you two so close?
18:57Tristan and I are about to undergo the bonding, Ryle.
19:00I frowned.
19:01Why shouldn't we be this close?
19:04What did you just say?
19:06Naxos's eyes widened in shock.
19:10Disbelief flashed through his eyes.
19:12You two are undergoing the bonding, right?
19:14He quickly brushed it off, though.
19:17He lifted his chin arrogantly.
19:21Impossible.
19:22We haven't even terminated our mating bond yet.
19:27How could you possibly perform the bonding right with him?
19:30The document I signed for you earlier was the bond-dermination agreement.
19:34I looked at him like he was an idiot.
19:36The Bureau has already severed our ties.
19:41Impossible.
19:42Naxos still refused to believe it.
19:45The Bureau never notified me that our bond was broken.
19:51Tristan let out a soft scoff.
19:53Of course you wouldn't know.
19:55You were too busy throwing a tantrum about getting out of there.
20:00To see this human.
20:03His icy gaze landed squarely on Chloe.
20:06Chloe pouted.
20:08Her patience was wearing thin.
20:10Are you done yet?
20:12If the bond is broken, then it's broken.
20:16You have me now, anyway.
20:19You were always meant to be my Marin.
20:23Naxos looked utterly dazed.
20:26He desperately searched my face for any sign of a lie.
20:31But Tristan simply took my hand.
20:36Let's go.
20:37We should head back early.
20:39He pulled me away.
20:44The Bureau is scheduling our bonding right for tomorrow.
20:47That night, I tossed and turned.
20:50Completely unable to sleep.
20:51When dawn finally broke,
20:53I was immediately startled out of Bedby,
20:55a frantic knocking at my door.
20:57I thought it was Tristan.
20:58But to my surprise,
21:00it was a staff member from the Control Bureau.
21:03The staff member looked at me anxiously.
21:05Miss Evelyn.
21:06We have a matter that requires your assistance.
21:09Naxos had fallen into a mental frenzy,
21:11injured someone in the human world,
21:12and been dragged back.
21:15Could you please come and help soothe him?
21:17I shook my head.
21:19Today is the day of my bonding right with Tristan.
21:22I have no intention of missing it.
21:25And I'm no longer mates with Naxos.
21:27You should find someone else to calm him down.
21:32The staff member sighed.
21:34We've already tried several pacifiers.
21:37But, unfortunately,
21:39the merm shift drove them all out.
21:40I knew Naxos had a terrible temper.
21:43But what did that have to do with me now?
21:47The staff member practically begged me.
21:50The Control Bureau takes its responsibility
21:51towards every shifter very seriously.
21:54We can't just give up on him.
21:55Miss Evelyn, please!
21:57I sighed.
21:59Ultimately moved by their earnestness.
22:01I sent a message to Tristan.
22:04Tristan, I'm so sorry.
22:06Something came up at work.
22:07I have to go.
22:09I'll make it up to you.
22:11I promise.
22:12Tristan replied quickly.
22:14It's okay.
22:16Since the staff asked for you,
22:17it must be important.
22:19I respect everything you do.
22:22I hope you don't feel burdened by this.
22:24My heart fluttered.
22:26Deeply touched.
22:27By the time I arrived at Naxos' room,
22:30the place had already been put on full lockdown mode.
22:34Naxos had already shifted into his half-human,
22:37half-fish merman form.
22:39He was sprawling across the sofa.
22:42His silver tail fluke was twitching irritably.
22:47The black bear shifter was standing nearby,
22:50talking to Naxos.
22:51You've got a rotten temper.
22:54Someone comes to soothe you,
22:55and you're still not happy about it.
22:58Evelyn will come to calm me down.
23:01She's my supervisory mate.
23:02For the past two years,
23:04she's been absolutely crazy about me.
23:06How could she not come?
23:09Naxos sounded so certain,
23:11as if he knew for a fact I would show up.
23:13He had guessed right,
23:15but I wasn't here for him.
23:17I came because the staff begged me.
23:19Wearing a protective helmet and carrying my equipment,
23:22I walked in to examine Naxos.
23:25Upon seeing me,
23:26Naxos smugly tilted his chin at the black bear shifter.
23:31See?
23:32I told you she'd come.
23:33I placed the equipment on him
23:35and gestured for the black bear shifter to leave.
23:40During the examination,
23:42I corrected what Naxos had just said.
23:45I'm not here for you.
23:48You drove away the people who came to help you.
23:51The control bureau staff begged me to come soothe you.
23:55A look of suspicion crossed Naxos' face.
23:58I don't believe it.
23:59You used to be so in love with me.
24:01That was then.
24:02My patience for you ran out a long time ago.
24:04I channeled my mental energy to soothe him face to face,
24:08without initiating even the slightest physical contact.
24:11Once the soothing was complete,
24:13I prepared to leave.
24:14I haven't been your supervisory mate for a long time.
24:18If you still don't believe me,
24:19you can just ask the bureau.
24:22He clenched his fist.
24:24After I left the room,
24:26Naxos immediately called the control bureau.
24:29Did you terminate my mate bond with Evelyn?
24:31The operator paused.
24:33One moment sir,
24:35let me check.
24:36Yes,
24:36Mr.
24:37Naxos,
24:37your bond with Miss Evelyn has been officially severed.
24:40Right after,
24:41a loud,
24:42rumbling crash of destruction erupted from within the house.
24:45He trashed the entire room.
24:47His temper remained as volatile as ever.
24:50But I was no longer going to clean up after him.
24:54Soon,
24:55the control bureau demanded that Naxos pay for the damaged property.
25:00Naxos' family had washed their hands of him.
25:02They wouldn't give him a dime.
25:04He had a terrible temper.
25:06He didn't have a single friend.
25:08Let alone anyone willing to lend him money.
25:10Left with no other choice.
25:12He could only call Chloe.
25:14Chloe requested the control bureau to let her take Naxos away.
25:18She also paid off the compensation for the property he destroyed.
25:22But none of it had anything to do with me.
25:25I was currently holding Tristan's hand,
25:27preparing for our bonding right.
25:30After we pressed our fingerprints before the bureau,
25:33the two marks merged into the shape of a heart.
25:37The bonding right was officially certified.
25:40Tristan and I were now mates recognized by the bureau.
25:46That night in the bedroom,
25:48my face burned hot as I sat face to face with Tristan.
25:51My fingers trembled slightly as I reached for his belt buckle.
25:55My voice was just as shaky.
25:59Tristan's ears were already flushed completely red.
26:03I'm really completing the bonding rile with you.
26:08His gray tail was thrashing behind him like a wild thing.
26:11It couldn't stay still.
26:14He breathed.
26:15His golden eyes dark with want.
26:18Yeah, come on.
26:19Once we took off our clothes and were completely bare.
26:22I pressed kisses to his brow.
26:25To the bridge of his nose.
26:27To his lips.
26:29As my kisses trailed down to his Adam's apple.
26:33Tristan wrapped a strong arm around my waist.
26:38His breathing was ragged.
26:41Don't forget the method for the bonding right.
26:44I closed my eyes and nodded.
26:47I know.
26:48Of course I remembered.
26:50That overly bold and indulgent method.
26:53Kissing every inch of the body.
26:58I started with his neck.
27:00Trailed my lips down the column of his throat.
27:03I felt the pulse in his neck hammer beneath my mouth.
27:08When my lips reached his collarbone.
27:10I nipped lightly.
27:12A low growl rumbled from his chest.
27:15He gasped.
27:17Evelyn.
27:19His chest was warm.
27:22It was dusted with soft hair.
27:24The hair led in a dark line down his stomach.
27:28I continued downward.
27:31I kissed each rib.
27:33Each dip of muscle.
27:35When my tongue flicked across his nipple.
27:38His whole body jerked.
27:44Fuck.
27:45His tail wrapped around my calf.
27:47Squeezing.
27:48I smiled against his skin.
27:50I kept going.
27:52His stomach quivered under my lips.
27:56When I kissed the sharp jut of his hip bone.
27:59His hips bucked.
28:01You're killing me.
28:03He groaned.
28:04I looked up at him through my lashes.
28:08My succubus tail curled behind me.
28:11The heart shaped tip throbbed with every beat of my own desire.
28:16The rite isn't finished.
28:19I kissed lower.
28:21My mouth found the core of his desire.
28:24Tristan's head fell back against the pillow.
28:26His hands tangled in my hair.
28:29A broken moan tore from his throat.
28:31His tail tightened around my leg.
28:34The fur soft but the pressure insistent.
28:38Suddenly, he flipped us over in one fluid motion.
28:41Pinning me beneath him.
28:43His eyes were nearly feral now.
28:45Pupils blown wide.
28:47Chest heaving.
28:48It is my turn.
28:52He kissed me deeply.
28:56I've wanted this since the first time I saw you.
29:00His mouth traveled down my body.
29:03He retraced the path I'd taken on him.
29:06But slower, worshipful.
29:09He kissed the hollow of my throat.
29:11The curve of my breast.
29:13The soft skin of my inner thigh.
29:17When his tongue found the heart-shaped tip of my tail.
29:21Tristan.
29:22I cried out.
29:24My back arched off the bed.
29:26He looked up at me.
29:27His gray ears perked forward.
29:29His eyes were soft.
29:31Despite the hunger in them.
29:33I love you.
29:36And then he proved it with his body.
29:39The night was long.
29:41Wild and chaotic.
29:46Waking up the next morning, I saw a strong arm draped across my body.
29:51At my slightest movement, the man beside me woke up.
29:57Tristan nuzzled against my neck.
30:00Awake so early?
30:01Wanna sleep a little longer?
30:04After all, you were so exhausted last night.
30:07My face flushed bright red.
30:09Mm-hmm.
30:11I gave a muffled reply.
30:13After breakfast, Tristan and I submitted a request to the control center.
30:17The request was to leave and go home.
30:21After all, shapeshifters who had completed the bonding rite.
30:25Received mental soothing from their mates.
30:28Once their mental rampages stabilized.
30:31They no longer needed to be monitored by the control center.
30:36After packing our things.
30:38I prepared to take Tristan home.
30:41Mom and dad will like me, right?
30:43Tristan was still a little nervous.
30:46I squeezed his hand.
30:48Don't worry.
30:50I like you.
30:52So my parents will definitely like you too.
30:56Tristan finally relaxed.
31:00I brought Tristan back to my family's large villa to meet my parents.
31:04Mom, dad, this is Tristan.
31:07My mom looked him up and down.
31:09Then nodded approvingly.
31:11So you're the new mate.
31:13You're not like that mermaid, are you?
31:15My dad asked directly.
31:17Tristan shook his head firmly.
31:19No, sir.
31:20I would never hurt her.
31:22My parents already knew that Naxos and I had broken our bond.
31:26They also knew I had chosen a new mate.
31:29How do you feel about him?
31:31My mom asked me.
31:34He's wonderful.
31:35Nothing like Naxos.
31:37Good.
31:39You should have given up on that merman a long, a long time ago.
31:42My dad said.
31:44Tristan was a smooth talker and knew exactly how to make my parents happy.
31:49You look so young.
31:51I almost mistook you for sister.
31:54Oh, stop it.
31:56My mom laughed and waved her hand.
31:59My dad patted Tristan on the shoulder.
32:02He's a smart one.
32:06One evening, Tristan and I went out for a walk.
32:09We happened to see people from the control bureau running into the woods.
32:13Soon, they captured a berserk shifter.
32:16We walked over to see what was happening.
32:18I realized the shifter was none other than Naxos.
32:21His hair was a mess.
32:23His eyes were bloodshot.
32:24He was glaring fiercely at a woman in front of him.
32:28It was Chloe.
32:30Chloe was crying and complaining to the control bureau staff.
32:34Take him away.
32:36Hurry.
32:36I was trying to soothe him.
32:38He actually attacked me.
32:40He injured my arm.
32:42I don't want him anymore.
32:44As Naxos was being taken away, his gaze shifted in my direction.
32:49His expression was filled with sorrow, agony, and regret.
32:53The crowd gradually dispersed.
32:56I pulled Tristan away.
33:00That night, my phone rang.
33:02I picked it up.
33:04Miss Evelyn, this is the control bureau.
33:07We've decided to give up on Naxos.
33:09We won't take care of him anymore.
33:11I froze.
33:13You mean, exile him to the uninhabited zone?
33:17Yes.
33:18We have no other choice.
33:19His temper is out of control.
33:21He hurts people even when he's not berserk.
33:24But he's asking to see you.
33:26One last time.
33:27I was about to refuse.
33:30Tristan took the phone from my hand.
33:33We'll come.
33:34He hung up and looked at me.
33:36I've wanted to hit that merman for a long time.
33:38This is my chance.
33:43Consider it me venting for you.
33:45Tristan and I walked to the room where Naxos was being held.
33:49We went inside.
33:52Naxos was sitting on the sofa, his gaze fixed out the window.
33:56Hearing the noise, he looked over.
33:59His gaze paused for a few seconds when he saw Tristan and me holding hands.
34:06Naxos's eyes dimmed completely.
34:09I know I wronged you and I did a lot of things that hurt you in the past.
34:15But I thought you still had feelings for me.
34:17I frowned and cut him off.
34:18There's no need to talk about the past.
34:21Time is running out.
34:23We've seen you and now we should go.
34:25The man's face instantly turned deathly pale.
34:28He wanted to say something else.
34:30But Tristan stepped in front of me and told me to leave first.
34:33I nodded and left ahead of him.
34:36Soon, loud crashing sounds echoed from the room.
34:40You scumbag fish!
34:42How dare you still covet my wife now!
34:44I'll beat you to death!
34:47She used to be mine!
34:49Naxos roared.
34:51Tristan sneered.
34:52Do you know?
34:53I fell for Evelyn the first time I saw her.
34:55Even back then, I knew you didn't deserve her at all.
34:58I secretly watched her every day,
35:00only to see her crying because of the pain you caused.
35:03I wanted to beat you up even then.
35:04Now she's mine!
35:06After a massive crash, the room door opened.
35:09Tristan patted the dust off his clothes.
35:12Then he reached out and held my hand.
35:15Let's go.
35:16We're going home.
35:17I stood there stunned.
35:20Tristan, I heard you say you've liked me for a long time.
35:23Yeah.
35:24When I first arrived, I fell for you the moment I saw you.
35:28But you already had a mate,
35:30so I could only watch you secretly every day.
35:32I laughed out of sheer amusement and lightly smacked his chest.
35:37Well played, you sly big bad werewolf.
35:40Tristan's eyes sparkled.
35:42Who said I'm a werewolf?
35:44I've always been your big doggie.
35:46Oh.
35:50With a playful howl,
35:51he pulled me into his arms and kissed me deeply.
35:54A bad werewolf had finally tasted meat.
35:57He never seemed to get his fill.
35:59I didn't think that's how I fell.
36:00No.
36:01No.
36:02No.
36:02No.
36:02No.
