Beast Love Show: All For Her (by Sylvester Raven) novel Chapter 6

The king cobra lay motionless on the ground, unresponsive.

The collision had clearly been severe.

Layla tried to hold it in, but in the end, she couldn't help but let out a small laugh. You knocked yourself out while hunting? Prof. Slater, you're such a wimp.

Convinced the snake was harmless, she returned to her lunch by the fire.

Even without salt, the goldenfin was more tender and flavorful than any fish she had ever tasted. There was no trace of fishiness. The first bite was crisp, followed by a melt-in-your-mouth softness. It was indescribably delicious.

The viewers were stunned.

[What is Layla thinking? Prof. Slater is unconscious, and she's just sitting there eating, not offering help?]

[She's actually laughing? Of course, a vile female would revel in someone else's misfortune!]

[What's so funny? It's normal for a researcher like Prof. Slater not to catch prey! Help him!]

[His beast form is thicker than Layla's waist. What exactly do you expect her to do? Besides, he'll be fine after resting for a bit. Males aren't that fragile.]

[Defending Layla? You're just as ruthless.]

[You're stubborn and unreasonable like Stella, unwilling to let anyone speak fairly.]

[Well said! Throughout the livestream, Layla hasn't been malicious, but Stella's fans are just hurling insults.]

[Weren't you worried Layla would cling to Prof. Slater? Now that she isn't, you're unhappy.]

[Get lost! Those are two different things! She's watching him suffer and doing nothing. Layla is cold-blooded and cruel!]

[Layla is cold-blooded and cruel!]

[Layla is cold-blooded and cruel!]

Stella's fans, using their numbers, spammed the same message, drowning out any comments that spoke in Layla's favor.

Layla finished one fish and then devoured two more, unfazed.

Suddenly, a small shadow appeared before her.

A slender figure stood tall, dressed simply in a shirt and black pants, exuding an intellectual air with calm, handsome features.

When his serpentine eyes beneath thick lashes lifted, their slit-like pupils radiated a chilling, inhuman aura, leaving anyone who met his gaze feeling a wave of gloom.

However, Shane only resembled the stereotypical snake in appearance.

Layla, having read the novel, knew he had a good temperament and was the least scheming of the five fiancés.

"Something you need?" Layla asked calmly. "If you're looking for Stella..."

She pointed toward the stone hut. "It's about an hour's walk that way."

Shane and Stella's connection had started on a mech science show.

Stella, along with a few other celebrities, had visited Crownpeak University to learn about mechs. Shane was their instructor.

Over time, they grew close.

In Primal Hearts, Shane was supposed to be the first male to move into Stella's hut. But due to getting lost and running into the former Layla, he'd gotten tangled up with her for quite a while before finally escaping, arriving last.

Determined not to repeat that fate, Layla took the initiative to guide him.

But Shane didn't look in the direction she indicated. His eyes were fixed on the last grilled fish. His Adam's apple bobbed. "Can I trade you for it?"

Layla paused. "Trade what?"

"The fish." He gestured at the mess by the fire and the collapsed tent. "I'm hungry and didn't catch any bitmons. I'll trade my salt for your grilled fish."

Layla was stunned. Wait, aren't you supposed to bargain?
