19 Chapter 19 : Mated for Life +778 Swan laid on the bed after the sheet had been changed . She tried to close her eyes and fall asleep but couldnt . She kept thinking about Gale , who seemed upset by her offer to sacrifice her if it was necessary to cure the curse . Is he mad at me ? But why ? Aria and Queen Mother didnt think twice about sacrificing me , and Im sure everyone in Holy Achates palace would be more than willing to save their lives in exchange for just one unworthy life . Swan refused to believe that Gale or anyone in this beastmen kingdom thought of her as a human being . She was naive , but not naive enough to think someone would be kind to her for no reason . She was in a daze as she kept thinking about Gale until the real one jumped into the room from the window . Swan darted her eyes and saw Gale , whose hair was slightly damp , proof that he had gone to the lake just now . Why havent you slept yet ? Gale asked as he walked to the bed . He lay right next to her , and Swan quickly turned to the other side so she wouldnt need to face him . Gale paused for a second and then tried to hug her from behind when he realized her body was stiff . Gale was just as stiff as she was . He kept hesitating because Jades words poisoned his mind , making him unsure if he should keep this close contact with Swan even though his curse would force him to mark and marry many more women in the future . However , the moment he inhaled the scent on her nape at the place where he marked her yesterday he felt at ease . ( 4) Thus , he buried his face there , sniffing her scent that had been harmoniously mixed with his . Gale naturally hugged her closer until there was no gap between them except her dress and muttered , Dont think too much about it . You will be safe with me . And ignore Jades words . Only I know the true nature of my curse . Including the fact that you will have more wives after me ? Swan asked with a low voice . She had been keeping it for a while , and if she was smart enough , she would just 20:24 * 1/4 19 Chapter 19 : Mated for Life shut her lips and nod to everything he said . But then , she realized this would be the perfect time to propose her sacrifice . Gale would have more wives , which would be far more beautiful and dignified . On top of that , his new wives wouldnt be crippled like her . Gale went quiet after that , so Swan continued , I heard from Lady Jade that you are obliged to marry many women from other parts of your conquered lands . So , uhm … Im sure they are much more beautiful than me . So 1- Gale suddenly hugged her tightly and kissed her nape . There was a strange sensation that ran through her body as he kissed the place where he marked her yesterday , Swan began to tremble , but she managed to control herself and continued her speech , S so , I think its fine if you … sacrifice me Ah ! Swan moaned when Gale suddenly nibbled on that same area on her nape , like a hungry wolf tasting his prey . His hug continued to tighten until Swan felt a little stuffy . He didnt respond or perhaps he simply didnt want to listen . Swan wanted her message to go through , so she endured the stimulation coming from his nibbles and continued , I I think I have no use other than being a s sacrifice . You dont need to worry about me . I will AH ! Swan finally couldnt endure it anymore when Gale bit her nape . His hands also began . to go up , and he pulled her dress down . Then he fiddled with her nipples , effectively shutting her up by making her sensitive body feel all kinds of pleasure . Swan almost gave up as it was too much for her , but she still delivered her last sentence despite the difficulty , I unh ! I I dont mind if you sacrifice me ahh ! Gale punished her by pinching her nipple , making her scream in response . Swan thought that Gale would finally respond to her , but he talked about a different topic instead , Princess , do you know what would happen after I mark you ? Swan shook her head, hoping that Gale would stop teasing her body so they could have a proper conversation about her sacrifice . In my culture , that means we are meant to be mates for life . You will respond when Im in my rut , and so do I will respond when youre in heat . It also allows you to bear our cubs , Gale explained . That also means our bodies will reject any other werewolves , or even anyone from your human species , as a human mate is not as 20 24 19 Chapter 19 : Mated for Lile uncommon as you thought . Swan found that to be quite romantic because in Holy Achate , despite being a kingdom that upholds monogamy , she knew there were so many infidelities between married couples . The prime example was the late king , who cheated on Queen Anastasia with a prostitute , and Swan was born because of that . It was also the reason why Swan never blamed the queen and Aria for tormenting her , even after they crippled her . She wasnt supposed to be born . That was the principle embedded in her head since she was young . The idea of being mated for life was very tempting for her , but after being told by Jade that Gale had to marry many women because of his curse , she didnt find the idea of being mated to Gale attractive anymore . She felt like she would always lose to the many beautiful women he would have in the future Its okay if you have to marry other women and sacrifice me I Hnnnh ! Gale shut her up again by pinching her nipples , Why do you keep talking about sacrifice ? Do you want to leave me that badly ? Swans body trembled again as Gale nibbled on her nape again . She tried to form a sentence but kept on getting interrupted by the constant pleasure . It was as if Gale didnt want to hear her answer . Gale nibbled on her earlobe and said in a low yet commanding voice , You cant leave me , Swan . We are mated for life . 20:24 Thank you for reading ^^ Title: A Tangle of Love (English-dubbed) In "A Tangle of Love," a captivating romance unfolds within a unique observation show where participants navigate intricate relationships, love triangles, and power dynamics.
