Emma said, “I don’t believe in all that. Besides, have you considered the fact that you were chosen as the Beast God’s successor? Do you think you would’ve been chosen if you really did represent death and misfortune?”
It didn’t take a genius to understand that Life wouldn’t ask Death to substitute for Them for a day.
Plus, she was no fool, continuing, “The Beast God must’ve long known about your beast form when he picked you out as his successor. The fact that he still chose you regardless of your beast form means that you don’t represent death and misfortune.
“If anything, you’re more likely to bring good luck.
“You really think so?” Jim whispered tremulously, his words sounding as if he’d forced them out of his throat.
His wispy tail that had awkwardly stiffened up earlier seemed to come back to life. It wrapped itself around Emma’s wrist, rubbing against her affectionately.
“I tell it like it is,” she answered firmly.
As her eyes fell upon the wispy tail wrapped around her wrist, she couldn’t resist the temptation to squish Jim a couple more times.
She never imagined that the poster child for strong and silent was actually an adorable ball of floof with built–in smoke effects? She had so many words about how great he felt under her lips that she was just going to keep them to herself.
Basically, he was the perfect little squish ball.
Emma was about to take advantage of the situation to cuddle him to death when she heard someone knocking on the door.
Before she could say anything, she heard Corvin’s muffled voice beyond the door. “Emma, can I come in?”
When Jim heard him, his wispy tail that had been wrapped around her wrist instantly slipped away as he got ready to shift back to
his human form.
He had already shown Emma his beast form, and he was over the moon over the fact that she didn’t hate it.
Frankly, he was more overjoyed about this than when she’d agreed to make him a wood carving as well.
However, Emma swiftly pressed a palm on Jim’s fluffy form.
Then, she leaned in close to Jim’s tiny black ear and whispered, “Jim, does Corvin know what kind of beast you are?”
Jim shook his head. “No.”
Everyone on the warship, except for Emma and Corvin, knew about his beast form.
Now, Emma had joined their ranks.
Thus, Corvin was the only one kept in the dark.
“That’s perfect!” she exclaimed, her eyes flashing with excitement.
Then, she held Jim up and whispered, “Hear me out. Let’s…”

She didn’t miss the chance to squeeze the black furball in her hands a few more times. By the Beast God, would it be wrong of me to turn him into my stress ball?
Jim felt his heart stutter when he felt Emma’s fingers wrapped around his beat form, his face turning bright red beneath his fur.
She seemed to really like squeezing him, especially that particular area.
Nevertheless, he wasn’t sure if she actually knew what she was squeezing.
Emma was completely oblivious to Jim’s blushing.
Instead, she said, “Remember, you’re not Jim. You are the arrogant, mysterious new mate that Drake added to the group chat!”
Jim hummed in agreement.
Then, he said, “I can change my voice.” That meant that he could speak if she needed him to.
Emma said, “Wonderful! You’ll speak when I give you the signal, okay? Just try to pretend to be as arrogant as possible. After all, you’re my favorite sweetheart right now.
Jim felt his cheeks turn even hotter.
He had a feeling he’d suffer cardiac arrest if this kept going.
Still, he tried to sound calm as he answered, “Okay.”
Emma nodded in satisfaction. Then, she sat back in her chair, adjusted her posture, crossed her legs, and called out, “Come in.”
The door instantly swung open as Corvin rushed in. “Emma, I…” he trailed off, his eyes landing on the black thing in Emma’s hand.
‘Emma, what’s that… that black thing in your hand?”
t was an ugly thing that was several shades blacker than Lucien was.
Emma reined in her laughter, keeping a straight face as she deliberately made a vague introduction. “Corvin, allow me to introduce you. He’s also my mate. He left me for a long time because he had some business to attend to, and he just got back today.”
‘He… he’s your most beloved sweetheart?” Corvin blurted, staring at the black ball in Emma’s palm in shock. But he’s so ugly!
He couldn’t help but wonder about Emma’s preference when it came to beauty.
‘Corvin, did you need something?” Emma asked while cradling the black furball.
Corvin pursed his lips as he scrutinized the black furball in her hand, looking like he’d swallowed a lemon.
