“They all have cubs now, and I have nothing! And his cub is a female… A rare female…”
Adrian said that in some families, they kept breeding until the last offspring was female.
Others never even got a female at all.
That was why males outnumbered females, and one female often had multiple mates.
And Evan-he’d only mated twice, and already he had a daughter. That meant Adrian would likely never have a daughter of his own.
“It’s over… He took the daughter from me…’
Annelise stared at him, speechless.

“What do you mean he took it? That’s just how it is. She’s his.”
As if all the cubs were just sitting there waiting to be picked, first-come, first-served.
At that moment, Hudson came over, cradling his own egg. No jealousy. No resentment. Only blessings.
“Evan, you have a cub too? A daughter… That’s amazing! My cub has a little sister!”
Adrian couldn’t help but butt in.
“What’s so amazing about that? Yours is a male, a son. His is a daughter-a rare female. I’m telling you, no one’s excited for your egg to hatch anymore. Everyone’s looking forward to his daughter. And in the future, everyone’s going to love his little girl, not your son.”
For the first time, Annelise and Evan found common ground-they both wanted to punch Adrian.
Annelise went first. “Fat rabbit, what nonsense are you spouting? Can’t you keep your mouth shut for once? I don’t care if it’s a son or daughter, I love them all equally. I’ll give them the very best.”
Evan hurried to reassure Hudson. “Little fox, don’t listen to him. Your child is the first, and nothing can ever replace your place in Ms. Crawford’s heart.”
Hudson patted his already two-sizes-larger egg and smiled. “Don’t worry. I barely listen to half of what Adrian says anymore. No matter what, I’ve said it before-whether my cub’s male or female, I’ll love them. I won’t be like my dad, getting jealous when the matriarch had a daughter with another mate and letting it affect how he treated his own children.”

Annelise felt a warm glow hearing that. She couldn’t resist stroking Hudson’s head, and he popped out a pair of fox ears to nuzzle her hand
Then, to her surprise, four tails appeared behind him-there was a new one.
Each fluffy, one even stretching behind Adrian to tap the top of his head.
Annelise couldn’t even imagine how blissful it would be to completely bury herself in Hudson’s tails.
She’d probably melt away, wrapped in all that fur, like she’d become part of him entirely.
Adrian swatted the fox tail off his head, shaking out the stray fur, only to see Riven approaching.
He felt a knot in his stomach-this was trouble from every direction.
On one hand, Evan already had a daughter.
On the other hand, there was this eager firebird pressing in.
Adrian crossed his arms, huffed, then sighed.
Annelise reckoned that Hudson might grow nine tails in the future, just like the legendary nine-tailed fox from “The Boundless Atlas.”
She told Hudson not to worry if he grew more tails.
“You could become really powerful someday,” she said playfully.
“Really? Powerful enough to protect my cub… forever?”
Annelise nodded, smiling. Hudson cared deeply for his cub under any circumstances.
“I will protect the cub too. Can’t rely on you all the time-otherwise, I’d be useless as a mom, right?”
Riven shoved Adrian aside and came up close, yanking at Annelise’s top to peek at her red mark.
Annelise quickly pushed his hand away.
“Stop that!”
Riven chuckled. “What’s wrong with a little peek at your belly? We’ve mated. You’ve seen me all over-I can’t look at your stomach?”
