Chapter 272

Chapter 272 “How long have you been taking this medication?” Nyx shook the pill bottle and stared directly at Kal Under her intense gaze, Kai dared not lie and confessed truthfully, “About twenty years That meant he started using contraception not long after their marriage, and it had continued until now.

Nyx took a deep breath. “Twenty years? Then, as punishment, for the next twenty years, you’re not allowed to come to my bedroom In an instant, Kaj felt like he had been struck by lightning “No.” He clung to Nyx’s leg. begging her. Twenty years is too long.”

“Now it feels too long?” Nyx snorted. “Why didn’t it feel long when you secretly took the pills behind my back all these years If he kept taking them, he’d never be able to have children.

Kai was at a loss for words, his head hanging low, He knew he was wrong, but twenty years without getting close to Nyx would be worse than death for him.

Nyx examined the leopard, who was in despair, and, after a long pause, pinched his ear while softening her tone. “We can reduce the punishment based on your performance Suddenly, a glimmer of hope flared up in his despair. Kai grabbed onto the lifeline, nodding vigorously.

Without hesitation, he threw the pills into the trash can and started actively working on his body every day, showing Nyx that he had reformed.

The other males in the household, upon learning what had happened, felt a bit awkward and didn’t know what to say.

On one hand, they felt that this leopard brought it on himself, but on the other hand, they couldn’t help but feel a bit sorry for him.

They thought being ignored for twenty years was indeed a cruel punishment.

As Nyx gradually cooled down, she also felt the punishment was too harsh. She couldn’t just ignore Kai for so long because she was mad at him.

At dinner time, Nyx sat at the table, feeling Kai’s eyes sneakily glancing at her. She looked up and met his gaze.

Kai seemed guilty, like he had been caught, but his intense desire overshadowed everything else. He couldn’t bear to look away.

Half a year had passed. The effects of the last pill had long faded, and he had been replenishing his body during this time.

He was a vigorous male. After his body was nourished, his potency was at its peak. He couldn’t release his pent–up energy.

When he watched the other males in the house and Nyx being affectionate, he felt so painful that he almost couldn’t sleep every night.

Every day of the punishment felt like a year. Six months had already been so hard to endure. He couldn’t even imagine how he would survive twenty years.

After finishing a tasteless dinner, Kai continued to sneak peeks at Nyx, torturing himself by wanting to know who she would choose to accompany her tonight.

1/2 Tue, 4 Mar Chapter 272 No matter who it was, he knew that he certainly didn’t have a chance. Feeling discouraged, he transformed into his beast form, his large body of a leopard drooping its ears dejectedly, squatting beside Nyx.

Fortunately, Nyx didn’t take away his grooming privilege entirely, allowing him some chance to be close to her.

Nyx gently rubbed the plush head of the leopard, a faint, almost imperceptible smile appearing in her eyes.

After finishing the grooming and playing enough, she stood up, leaving the leopard gazing at her with reluctant eyes.

Another tough night came. The leopard lay there, head buried in his paws, reminiscing the feeling of being cradled by Nyx while she groomed him, preparing to spend the long night on his sweet memory.

Suddenly, two delicate feet appeared before his eyes. The leopard jolted to his feet, his gaze moving up from the ankle to the calf, thigh, waist, collarbone, and finally. Nyx’s stunning face.

“Why are you barefoot?” He didn’t know why Nyx had returned but was worried she might catch a cold from standing on the ground. He tried to shift to his human form to pick her up but was stepped on lightly on the back by her.

In an instant, his bones went weak, unable to change into human form successfully.

Nyx remained silent as she walked on him, her toes teasing his tail.

Teased so cruelly, the leopard shivered. He didn’t dare move or escape–nor did he want to. Instead, he meekly begged, “Nyx, stop playing with me.”

The leopard’s large frame and broad back easily bore her weight, and he barely felt any pressure.

Usually, he’d serve as Nyx’s transport, carrying her around. But right now, after being tormented by Nyx, his body was burning with heat, his muscles stiff as rocks, standing there rigid “Let’s go,” Nyx said, patting his head and urging him.

Kai’s usually sharp mind was now blank; bewildered, he asked dully, “Go” Where to?”
