Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 93

Chapter 93: Chapter 93: So, They Have a Chance

The weather was clearly getting colder, yet for the past few days, she often felt that her palms and soles were unreasonably hot. She felt sweltering when she slept at night, and it was as if a fire was hidden in her chest.

It had been even worse today—the sight of a man had made her blood surge, and she had fainted. When had she become so lacking in self-control? Or was there something wrong with her body?

She pondered this in her room, while outside, the five men found themselves parched with thirst, enticed by the fragrance wafting from her body.

They had sensed her heat was approaching several days ago, but they hadn’t expected it this soon.

Now that her scent was overflowing from the room, the men all stood in the courtyard, keeping a motionless vigil.

Each man was lost in his own thoughts, hoping to be the fortunate one she would choose this time.

Though her attitude toward them these past few days had been indifferent, they could at least tell she was no longer averse to them. This meant they had a chance.

This was precisely why they had been going all out for the past few days, each flaunting his own charm and trying to flirt with her at every turn, all in an effort to catch her attention. Their goal was to be chosen during this heat and become the first Beast Husband she officially approved of, allowing them to move into the bamboo house in broad daylight. Then they would never have to sleep in the trees again.

Shen Yue truly couldn’t bear the heat any longer. She stood up, deciding to go outside to cool down.

But who would have thought that the moment she pushed open the door, she would see the five of them standing stock-still in the courtyard like a row of Night Rakshasas.

The moment she pushed open the door, the men’s eyes locked onto her, their gazes laced with a faint, unreadable intent.

She froze.

"Why are you all standing out here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

They each let out a cough and remained silent, but the look in their eyes was full of unspoken drama.

Shen Yue gave them a strange look.

"Well? Say something!"

Mu Silin considered for a moment, then said, a little bashfully, "You’re feeling very uncomfortable, aren’t you? Can’t sleep?"

Shen Yue froze. How did he know?

Mu Silin’s voice was deep and husky.

"I can keep you company!"

Keep her company?

To stay up all night with her?

At that, Ye Lüqi, who was standing beside him, retorted:

"You think you’re the only one who wants to keep her company? We’re all standing right here."

Lan Cangyue looked at Shen Yue.

"We can all keep you company. If it’s truly unbearable, just choose one of us."

Shen Yue grew more and more confused.

"Choose one? For what?"

Bai Chaosi listened, his eyes as gentle as tranquil water.

"I stand by what I’ve said before. I’ll accept whoever you choose, as long as you’re the one to choose him. All that matters is that he can make you comfortable."

Shen Yue: "???"

Huh? Make her comfortable?

Huang Ziyue looked at her and spat out two ice-cold words:

"Choose me."

Mu Silin shot him a sharp look.

"You damn Flood Dragon, have you no shame!"

*Can’t you be a little more subtle?* he thought. *Do you have to be so blunt? You can’t just bully your way into this!*

Bai Chaosi added, "The right to choose is hers. How can you be so domineering?"

The more she heard, the less she understood. Just then, she felt her body heat up even more. As she looked at the men, she found them more and more pleasing to the eye. An involuntary urge to get closer to them surfaced.

She frowned, and then it hit her.

*Oh, crap! This feeling... Don’t tell me this body’s heat has finally arrived. I’m in heat?*

She snapped her gaze toward them and finally noticed that all their bodies were tensed, their gazes searing her. It was as if a sensitive nerve had been struck.

The penny finally dropped for Shen Yue. So, when they told her to "choose one," they meant choose one to sleep with?

And to pick one that could "make her comfortable"? 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Were these things that a civilized person would say?

How was she supposed to know which of them could make her comfortable?

She cleared her throat, her eyes flickered, and she asked meekly, "And... what happens if I don’t choose?"

The disappointment on their faces was palpable.

Bai Chaosi:

"You don’t have to choose, but you would have to endure it on your own. It would be very hard on your body. The explosive surge of hormones will drive you to the point of losing your reason, scorching your body from the inside. It lasts three days at minimum, seven at most. Can you handle that?"

Shen Yue’s lip twitched.

Endure it? For three to seven days?
