Odian’s anxious voice came through immediately. \"Nina, where are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She checked their position. \"Southwest of you. A bit far.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was about to say more when Idir suddenly grabbed the locator—and by sheer coincidence, pressed the shutdown button.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nina, you’re not allowed to talk to other males.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took her wrist and began fiddling with the device. Whether by luck or instinct, he managed to remove it almost instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a flick of his hand, he tossed the locator aside, then pulled her tightly into his arms. \"Nina, you belong to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina blinked in surprise. He had removed it that easily?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before she could react further, Idir leaned in again, claiming her lips. \"Nina, don’t even think about other males.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hand roamed freely, sending a tremor through her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Idir... don’t...\" Nina breathed softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even as she spoke, warmth was already spreading through her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nipped lightly at her earlobe, his voice low and coaxing. \"Nina... don’t refuse me, alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ll regret it once you’re fully conscious again,\" she said, still trying to resist. She didn’t want to face the aftermath of something he might not even remember clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I won’t.\" His gaze was steady, filled with a depth of feeling that made her hesitate. \"Nina, I will never regret this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he? As long as she didn’t regret it, that was all that mattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The certainty in his eyes sent heat rushing to her cheeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nina,\" he murmured, \"you feel it too... don’t you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could tell—she was not rejecting him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She bit her lip. Of course she felt it. She wasn’t made of stone. And it had been a while since she’d been close to any of her mates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lately, with Idir constantly teasing and provoking her, she had been holding herself back to the point of frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His touch grew bolder, stirring something restless within her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nina, stop resisting,\" he urged softly. \"Holding it in like this isn’t good. I’ll take care of you—I promise you won’t regret it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone softened, almost pleading. \"Nina... I feel awful. Help me, alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He guided her hand, letting her feel just how much he wanted her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her resolve began to waver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nina... please.\" His lips brushed against hers again, his voice threaded with quiet desperation. \"I really can’t bear it anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A restless heat coiled in her chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At last, she reached up and pinched his ear lightly, half-annoyed, half-flustered. \"You’re absolutely sure you won’t regret this? When you come back to your senses, don’t you dare blame me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was struggling too. And it wasn’t as if this was unfamiliar territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Idir’s face lit up with unrestrained joy, a breathtaking smile spreading across his lips. \"I’ll never regret it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If anything, he would only be grateful—grateful that he belonged to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lowered his head and kissed her deeply, his hands moving to undo the last barriers between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dark pelts and pale furs lay layered together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the flickering firelight, two figures were entwined, bodies pressed close, inseparable...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The night stretched on—long, heated, and restless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the cave, several males were searching themselves half-mad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the locator signal abruptly cut off, Odian’s anxiety spiked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only thing that offered him a sliver of reassurance was that Nina seemed unharmed—for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That damned snake... he actually shut off Nina’s locator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, he contacted Sal and the others, relaying her approximate direction. The group immediately broke into a sprint, racing toward her at full speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, Idir stirred from sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes opened slowly, still hazy—only to find a soft, warm body nestled in his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lowered his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There she was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina’s delicate, flushed face rested against him, her features softened by sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart lurched violently—then skipped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then, like a flood breaking through a dam, memories from the past few days rushed back all at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Idir’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He... he and Nina... And last night... His face drained of color. A surge of regret and fear gripped him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What had he done? How could he have treated her like that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked down at her rosy, radiant face, his chest tightening with a bittersweet ache—equal parts tenderness and pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, he lifted a hand and traced the outline of her features.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fragments of the previous night surfaced in his mind—intense, overwhelming, impossible to forget.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These past days... he had been happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truly, deeply happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being with Nina had brought him a kind of joy he had never known.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was cursed. A beastman like him... didn’t deserve her. He would only bring her misfortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if one day he lost control completely—if he forgot even her—he might hurt her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought pierced him like a blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. He could never allow that. Even if it meant his own death, he would never harm her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hand lingered against her cheek, reluctant to let go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only now did he finally understand his own heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had fallen for her long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when he was clear-headed, he had never dared to admit it. Only in madness had he found the courage to show what he truly felt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet... He couldn’t stay by her side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would only destroy her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Idir closed his eyes tightly, anguish cutting through him as he made his decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina... I’m sorry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m not worthy of you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just begun to withdraw his hand when Nina suddenly stirred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Idir immediately shut his eyes again, pretending to still be asleep, though his heartbeat pounded wildly in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina slowly opened her eyes and saw the faint tremble of his lashes. Something deep inside her chest ached, though she did not know why.\u003C\u002Fp>",1009,"2026-06-03T08:29:56.682Z","2026-06-03T08:30:03.516Z",1,"novelbin.me","68cbb4fd39e1f46be56efa3446e94fd2cdcdc8dd514836472e23254e3823d0af","after-giving-birth-all-my-beast-ex-husbands-sudd-chapter-273","after-giving-birth-all-my-beast-ex-husbands-sudd-chapter-271",299,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-giving-birth-all-my-beast-ex-husbands-sudd-cover.jpg"]
