Chapter 275 Slowly Changing (Bonus Chapter for Rewards)
Minos almost forgot to breathe, "You…"
Sang Luo took his hand, her almond eyes blinking playfully, eyelashes curled like butterfly wings, "Next time you want to give me something, give it to me personally. I won't refuse, and I'll be very happy."
What she liked was a gift given with affection, not a high and mighty reward.
Minos lowered his head in a daze, looking at their intertwined hands, then gazed deeply into her eyes, a strange warmth rising in his heart.
This feeling was extremely foreign to him, yet he couldn't help but crave it.
He wanted to hold on tight, never letting go.
A golden winged totem necklace appeared in Minos's palm, and he said somewhat awkwardly, "This, I wanted to give it to you."
"Mmm, it's very beautiful. Put it on me personally, please," Sang Luo invited him with a curve in her eyes.
Minos's heart beat uncontrollably faster, without a trace of lust, only joy and elation from the bottom of his heart.
Minos's gaze fell on Sang Luo's slender, snow-white neck. He reached out and gently brushed aside her dark, smooth hair. Her hair felt so good in his hand that he couldn't help but touch it a few more times, before putting the necklace around her neck.
As he let go, Sang Luo stood on tiptoe and gave him a quick, dragonfly-like kiss on his lips.
"Thank you, Minos. I really like the gift you gave me."
Minos was captivated by her sudden kiss, his face slightly flushed.
Sang Luo put her hands behind her back, her eyes narrowed with a wider smile, "You see, we're both expressing gratitude, but I haven't done this kind of thing to Iloti!"
Minos recovered, the corners of his lips slightly curved, "Mm, he doesn't need to be exiled to the borderlands."
"Ah? Hmph!"
Just as Sang Luo was about to complain about this unromantic guy, Minos reached out and pulled her into his arms, lowering his head to kiss her lips, deepening the kiss…
A few days later, Sang Luo was in a wisteria grove outside the palace. The sun was a bit strong, and she sat in the shade on a gently swinging swing, eating an ice cream croissant, when she met Iloti again.
"Greetings, Holy Consort," Iloti said regretfully, "The Holy Temple rejected my application."
Sang Luo: Sigh, I knew it!
She knew who was behind it without even thinking.
Rejection was a small matter. If he was really exiled to the border, losing his life would be a big deal!
Sang Luo almost dragged him down with her, and felt a little ashamed. She handed him the butter bread in her hand, "Come over and take a break… You don't need to think too much. Just do your job well. Don't worry about me. I'm doing fine here."
"But this subordinate still wants to be transferred here," Iloti sighed.
Minos walked over.
Iloti quickly said respectfully, "Greetings, Holy Son."
Minos looked at Sang Luo, "Do you want him back?"
Sang Luo thought for a moment and nodded honestly, "Iloti is patient and meticulous. He helped me a lot during the last period, better than the current guards in the palace."
The Holy Son and Holy Consort's palace needed guards to protect their safety. Minos had now revoked the guard order, and Sang Luo could freely enter and leave the palace, and could also leave the Holy Palace, but he had to accompany her.
It wasn't that he was afraid of her running away. The two had signed a contract, and Sang Luo didn't plan to escape now. She would stay in the Holy Temple to 'cultivate feelings' with Minos, but she also had a three-chapter agreement with him. After a while, she would go back to the Beast World Continent to see her beast husbands and children. She also had her own things to do, and couldn't just revolve around him alone.
Minos originally disagreed, but he didn't want the relationship between the two, which had finally eased, to return to the past. After struggling for two days, both sides took a step back.
Minos did not restrict Sang Luo from returning to the Beast World Continent, but before she completed the contract, she had to stay in the Holy Temple most of the time and be with him.
Sang Luo could accept it. After all, her current mission was to win over Minos, and she was willing to spend more time and effort on him… Sigh, Fei Yuan had been pregnant for four or five years. If she really wanted to conceive an angel clan offspring, it was estimated that the time would not be short. She couldn't stay in the Holy Temple forever for four or five years without going back. What if the beast husbands thought she was dead? Especially that restless one, Fei Yuan, that guy was probably already looking for his next spring. She couldn't give him this opportunity!
Minos looked at the somewhat restrained and uneasy Iloti.
He knew that Sang Luo had no interest in Iloti, so he didn't have any hostility. This kind of mixed-blood angel wasn't enough to make him feel any urgency, but the other party might not be the same.
As a male beast, Minos could see a little hidden thought in Iloti.
He also knew his identity and had never thought about anything.
He just liked being with the Holy Consort. The Holy Consort was gentle and peaceful, and he admired her very much. He was happy just to see her from afar.
"This subordinate knows, this subordinate understands."
Minos nodded, "If Luo Luo is willing to have you serve her, then come back."
Iloti was overjoyed, "Yes, thank you, Your Highness! This subordinate will definitely do my duty and guard the Holy Consort's safety!"
Sang Luo was also a little surprised that Minos had agreed to her request with just one sentence. He must have cared about this kind of thing to some extent, but since she liked it, he wouldn't go against her wishes on this small matter.
The Holy Son… is slowly changing!
Sang Luo smiled at Iloti, "Since the Holy Son has spoken, then you should hurry back and pack up. Move over in a few days. By the way, where was Habier transferred to? Although that person is a bit cold, he has a warm heart beneath a cold exterior. If he's willing, let him come back too."
"Okay, Holy Consort. I, I will go back and pack my things and notify him. He's in another guard squad, but he belongs to the same unit as me," Iloti said incoherently with excitement. After saluting, he quickly left.
Sang Luo finished the last bite of her croissant and was about to jump off the swing when Minos picked her up by the waist.
After spending a few days together, Sang Luo gradually became familiar with the warmth of the man in front of her. Her body no longer resisted his touch, but instead, a faint pleasure arose, "Have you finished your official business?"
"Mm, the old Holy Emperor's body is no longer working. If there are no accidents, I will succeed to the throne next month. These days will be a little busy, but I will come to find you at other times." This kind of thing doesn't need to be deliberately cultivated and learned. Although Minos has never experienced love, he is a male beast with a sound personality. His body will take the correct action faster than his thoughts.
It was as if an invisible thread hooked him and her together.
As soon as Minos finished his official business, he would instinctively come back to find Sang Luo's figure.
He liked being with her very much.
Relaxed, happy.
Male beasts spend their lives pursuing partners and offspring to form new families, and she can fill his emotional void, and he can't help but want to surround her.
"It's time for lunch. You haven't eaten yet, have you? The servants should have prepared the meal at this time. Let's go back!" Sang Luo took his hand.
It was just a small action, but Minos felt an unspeakable sense of satisfaction in his heart. He held her soft, delicate hand in return, and instead of using teleportation, he took her back to the palace for a slow walk.
The third update is here!
