Evan, on the other hand, had marks along his neck, collarbone, and chest where she had bitten him. The scene made it look like he had really been put through it. Sure enough, a shifter’s body was built differently. Even a female could be fierce.
When Annelise woke again, aside from a slight ache at her waist and a general weakness, nothing felt especially uncomfortable.
Evan, meanwhile, never took his attention off her. The moment she stirred, he rose at once and called softly, “Ms. Crawford, are you feeling unwell?”
At first, Annelise was still half-asleep and wanted to keep resting. Evan did not disturb her. He simply held her close.
When desire stirred, the orchid scent carried an aphrodisiac effect. Once it passed, his natural orchid scent became soothing instead.
Later, Annelise began shifting more often. Evan knew she was not sleeping deeply and could not settle. He leaned close and spoke again, “Ms. Crawford, are you awake? Are you feeling unwell?”
“Mm… my waist’s a little sore…” Her throat still hurt, and her voice was rough and hoarse.
Evan took the glass and helped her drink some water. After setting it aside, he began to massage her waist.
His pressure was just right, and Annelise let out a comfortable yawn.
As she became more alert, Annelise started replaying what had happened the day before and through the night. The more she remembered, the redder her face grew. The more she thought about it, the more she realized her shifter body was surprisingly resilient.
She remembered clinging to Evan, refusing to let him leave, even when he said he was only getting her some water. She held him close and kissed him, trailing her kisses from top to bottom.
Oh my god, why am I acting as if I have never seen a man before? I am only half thirsty, entirely out of my head, and I actually tap my own lips and practically order Evan to feed me water mouth-to-mouth.
That night, Annelise made it sound reasonable and said to Evan. I fed you your medicine mouth to mouth, so why can’t you give me water the same way?’

Evan spoiled her without limits. Besides, a mate was supposed to obey the matriarch without question. She had chosen him as the first mate to copulate with. Compared to that, feeding her water was nothing at all. Even holding her in his arms every day would have been more than worth it.
In the end, Annelise’s possessiveness showed. She bit into his neck, his collarbone, his chest, leaving deep, unmistakable marks behind.
He did not dodge her. He only smiled at her indulgently and let her, allowing her to do whatever she wanted.
Wait-bite marks. There is no way a collar can hide those, right? Oh my god. If he goes out looking like this and people see him, that would be beyond embarrassing.
Annelise shot up and turned to look at Evan. She hadn’t expected to spring up so fast and ended up straining her back. “Ugh… my back…”
When she was lying down, it had just felt a little sore, but that sudden stretch brought real pain.
Seeing Annelise’s face go pale, Evan quickly pressed harder while massaging. “Ms. Crawford, you can’t just get up like that. Copulation already takes a lot out of you, and then you make such big moves. Even doing nothing, standing up like that can easily pull something.”
“Ah… yeah.” Annelise’s eyes drifted to Evan’s neck, and sure enough, there was a deep, red bite mark.
She couldn’t stop thinking about last night, how she had bitten Evan, and he had held back but let it happen.
Ugh… this is so embarrassing!
Annelise flopped back onto the bed, burying her face in the pillow.
Evan looked a little puzzled. “Ms. Crawford, is there something special about the bite marks on my neck? Every male and female gets them after copulating.”
He went on to explain that during the heat cycle, bite marks typically become more visible. The more marks there are, the better it indicates that the male and female had a good copulation, a stronger bond.
“But… if it’s not during the heat cycle, it’s harder to get a cub. This time with you, it was just about copulating. Nothing meant to bring new life into the tribe.”
Annelise was moaning a bit as her lower back got massaged. Suddenly, she thought of cubs. “So

if there’s a cub, and I’m carrying it for ten months, wouldn’t the bunny be stuck holding back the whole time? Oh wow, that hits a blind spot. I have so many mates. If I have a cub, does that mean the others just have to deal with it?”
This time, Evan froze for a second. He looked confused. “Ten months? What are you talking about? After a female and male copulate, if there’s a cub, it shows up in your belly right after copulating. You’ll see a mark just above your navel. A red mark means the cub is female. Blue means male. In just ten days, we as mates can lightly dig out our cub’s spawn, raise it ourselves, and wait for it to hatch.”
So the way
this world reproduced wasn’t quite like the human world Annelise knew.
The female still carried life, but it only took ten days for the cub to reach egg size.
When Evan said “cub’s spawn,” he really meant the fertilized egg was already complete. Each fertilized egg had a shell around it when it emerged from the female’s body. The male just had to care for it for six months, then the cub would hatch.
If it were a fox’s cub, the shell held a little fox cub shifter.
If it were a rabbit’s cub, it held a little rabbit cub shifter.
Basically, during the cub’s early life, the male was the one who took care of them.
