That thought had died completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he ended up with a child just as clueless—running around feeding him fruit all day—would he even survive?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching his reaction, Rory nearly lost control and laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly lowered her head, tugging at the blanket Xarion had tossed aside so he wouldn’t see the expression on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How is that a terrifying idea?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory wrapped the blanket back around him, then cupped his face, her expression full of dreamy sincerity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Xarion is so handsome.

Our cubs definitely won’t be as well-behaved and adorable as Terry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you really want children... why not have Jasper’s instead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He started to get off the bed as he spoke, as if ready to go find Jasper right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He really didn’t want children that badly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory grabbed him and pushed him back down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jasper said he doesn’t want snake babies right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then Nix,\" Xarion said immediately. \"He’s from the Liger Clan. Little lion-tigers are very cute.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory shook her head. \"Nix isn’t home today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was still at the lab.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Vincent then. Vincent is a firebird. Baby firebirds are even cuter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more he thought about it, the more convinced he became.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Female Master, he’s your first partner. He’s the most suitable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat up again, trying to get off the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t need compensation anymore.

I was just teasing you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xarion froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...His Female Master was really something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching her smile so happily, his silver-gray eyes flickered. Suddenly, he grabbed the thin chain he had undone earlier and fastened it around her wrist instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Female Master, not only did you not compensate me—you even tricked me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fangs brushed lightly against the pulse at her neck, his voice dropping into something dangerous and low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So tell me... how should I punish you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She saw the dangerous gleam flickering in Xarion’s eyes—and instead of shrinking back, she smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Punish me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory tilted her head up, her warm breath brushing lightly against his ear as she spoke in a soft murmur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How do you plan to punish me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice dropped, teasing. \"Are you going to bite me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pause. \"Or...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She lifted a finger and tapped gently against his throat, feeling the subtle rise and fall of his Adam’s apple beneath her touch as it betrayed his reaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xarion’s entire body went rigid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had meant to intimidate her, to seize back control—but Rory showed no fear at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Female Master was far too cunning. Somehow, she always found a way to unravel him completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Female Master...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice turned hoarse, the edge of danger melting into something softer—almost like a plea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know I could never hurt you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He buried his face in the curve of her neck, drawing in a deep breath of her scent—warm, sweet, and unmistakably hers. Like a great beast that had finally found its home, he nuzzled closer, reluctant to pull away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory let out a soft laugh, her fingers threading through his silver hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chain around her wrist chimed faintly with her movement, a crisp, delicate sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know you wouldn’t,\" she murmured. \"So...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could react, she shifted—swift and fluid—reversing their positions in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now she was above him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xarion blinked, staring up at her. \"Female Master, you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rory leaned down, brushing her nose lightly against his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" she asked softly, her voice gentle but teasing. \"I’m compensating you, aren’t I? Don’t you want it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a heartbeat, Xarion simply looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then something in his silver-gray eyes ignited—hot, fierce, undeniable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elsewhere, Yuel stepped out of the bath, still drying his hair when his gaze fell on the message blinking on his communicator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was from that same unfortunate \"big spender\" again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He scanned the contents, and a trace of exasperation crossed his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all this time... and the man still hadn’t managed to get along with his Female Master’s other partners?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His emotional intelligence was astonishingly low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuel had half a mind to ignore him. But tonight, he couldn’t accompany Rory—and with nothing pressing to do, he might as well respond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Changing into his nightwear, he reclined on the bed and tapped a quick reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moonlit Heart:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Getting along with others is simple. First, you need to take the initiative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you can casually offer up an eleventh-rank beast core over such a minor issue, then you’re clearly powerful—and not lacking in resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, give some gifts to your bonded brothers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In another room, Paros had been staring at his communicator, waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After sending his message to \"Moonlit Heart,\" there had been no reply for a long time. He had begun to assume he’d been ignored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, a new message came through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Paros immediately opened it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he read, his brows slowly drew together, a faint frown forming on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>",1274,"2026-06-05T18:17:47.496Z",1,"novelbin.me","0aa1c7cc6e371b08b89f8e31ba4b237f41cdf1fa6e399e8495654236502474dd","interstellar-beast-world-all-my-husbands-are-pow-chapter-275","interstellar-beast-world-all-my-husbands-are-pow-chapter-273",315,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finterstellar-beast-world-all-my-husbands-are-pow-cover.jpg"]
