If he still had a tail in this form, it would have been wagging uncontrollably for sure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Jasper studied her with solemn sincerity and gave a slow, approving nod. \"Very pretty,\" he said carefully. \"And very adorable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory narrowed her eyes at both of them, then struck an exaggerated pose with one hand on her hip. \"That’s it? Justprettyandcute?\" she demanded. \"Nothing alluring? Nothing mysterious? Not even a little bit seductive? That’s... quite underwhelming.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jasper had to bite down hard to keep from laughing at her dramatic expression. Nix, meanwhile, immediately seized her hand in both of his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Female Master, this is my fault,\" he said earnestly. \"I designed the mask in a juvenile Ravaryn style. If you want something more mature or alluring, I can make you another one next time. Something elegant. Something bold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory stared at him for a long moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she sighed. \"Fine. A cub it is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least she had a mask. That was already a victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Lola Brandon emerged from the adjoining room, and the atmosphere shifted instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wore a phoenix-style mask—sleek, fiery, and commanding. Even standing still, she radiated confidence, like royalty stepping into a throne room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory couldn’t help sighing under her breath.That’s the kind of entrance I wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lola’s eyes lit up the moment she saw Rory. Without hesitation, she swept forward and wrapped her arms around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rory!\" she exclaimed. \"That mask is ridiculously cute. It’s perfect on you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks,\" Rory replied politely—though she absolutely did not mean it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on,\" Lola said, already tugging her forward. \"Let’s go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She laced their fingers together and pulled Rory toward the ballroom, practically dragging her along in her excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind them, Jasper and Nix followed closely, their attention never straying far from Rory. Lola’s two mates trailed after them, alert but relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ballroom was already alive with motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lights shimmered overhead, music pulsed through the floor, and the center of the hall was filled with dancing females.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hurry!\" Lola laughed, pulling Rory into the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Single males nearby instinctively stepped aside, clearing space for them without a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, Rory worried she wouldn’t know how to dance. But once she really looked around, she realized something important—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one knew what they were doing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were no steps. No rhythm to follow. No rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just movement. Laughter. Freedom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her nerves melted away instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If everyone was dancing badly, then no one could be embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory laughed and joined in, moving however felt right. Lola mirrored her movements, and soon they were laughing so hard they could barely breathe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rory, you’re so fun to watch!\" Lola said between laughs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around them, more females joined in, the center of the ballroom filling with carefree energy and bright voices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the edge of the room, Jasper and Nix watched quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Rory laugh like that—unrestrained, glowing—made something soften in Jasper’s chest. He realized, with a pang, that he should bring her places like this more often.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thrived in lively spaces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lights cut out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The music died mid-note.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ballroom plunged into darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What happened?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey—watch your feet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You stepped on me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rory!\" Lola’s voice rang out urgently. \"Where are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m here!\" Rory shouted back, though she couldn’t see a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t be afraid, Rory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Jasper’s voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anxiety threaded through it. Therians could see in the dark—but Rory couldn’t. To her, the world had vanished completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached out, trying to find her hand—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Starrail suddenly shook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People stumbled. Bodies collided. Someone bumped hard into Rory’s shoulder, sending her stumbling sideways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her only worry was that Jasper and Nix would be frantic trying to find her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rory!\" someone shouted again. \"Don’t be scared!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a pair of strong, calloused hands closed around hers and pulled her firmly into a solid chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, she thought it was Jasper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the only one who ever called her like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the moment she breathed in, she knew she was wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jasper always smelled cool and clean, like frost and metal. His skin was slightly cold to the touch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man was warm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His scent was deep and rich, spiced with something faintly earthy—like patchouli.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory stiffened instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re not Jasper,\" she said carefully. \"Who are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked up, straining to see his face, but in the darkness she could only make out eyes glowing faintly red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man froze, his entire body going rigid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re right,\" he said at last. \"I’m not Jasper.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was low, steady, almost reverent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rory,\" he continued softly, \"it’s me. Kather.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kather?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re Kather?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had wanted to find him just yesterday—and before she even had the chance, he had appeared on his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re really Kather?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t understand why his name seemed to shake her so deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" he replied firmly. \"I am Kather.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, as if remembering himself, his tone shifted—formal, respectful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forgive me,\" he added. \"I should have addressed you properly... my lady.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As her follower, he wasn’t permitted to use her name without consent. Until she accepted him fully, that was the correct form of address.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I heard Jasper call you that,\" he admitted quietly, \"and I couldn’t stop myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My lady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words made heat rush to Rory’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lola had offered her a chick. Even her brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now this—being calledmy ladywith such quiet devotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did everyone from Aurelia have something strange going on? Was that place just... like this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just—just call me Rory,\" she muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing those words from him made her heart beat far too fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rory,\" Kather repeated softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew her just a little closer, his voice gentle, warm, and undeniably sincere.\u003C\u002Fp>",997,"2026-06-05T18:17:47.496Z",1,"novelbin.me","79cbf45ee9f26fd55a68136e5e89672108f51f0aa8cf3296a468006d4876c582","interstellar-beast-world-all-my-husbands-are-pow-chapter-106","interstellar-beast-world-all-my-husbands-are-pow-chapter-104",315,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finterstellar-beast-world-all-my-husbands-are-pow-cover.jpg"]
