An Jin glanced from the expressionless Gu Yin to the grim-faced Ling Hong, her heart a tangle of emotions. It was incredibly awkward.
After realizing she liked Ling Hong, her only thought had been to cut the knot and become his mate, hoping it would save them both from any further turmoil. She never imagined the real trouble was yet to come.
She couldn't favor either one of them. In the Beast World, that was a huge taboo.
Doing so could easily provoke the other male's resentment, planting an emotional time bomb that might even threaten the precious female's safety.
An Jin wisely remained silent, looking down at the tips of her toes, then at the empty air beside her.
The few seconds of silence between the three of them felt like a century-long standoff. In the end, it was Ling Hong who yielded first. "You get a day, I get a day. We'll take turns being with her."
"HISS~"
