The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 697

With both beautiful women insisting on joining him, Danny had no choice but to acquiesce. "Fine, I'll take you both. With you two burdens, we're bound to starve here on Purple Gold Hill one of these days."

As soon as Danny's words fell, Belle shot him a fierce look. "Country boy, what did you just say? How dare you call me a burden? I'll kick you to death!" Not one to hold back, Belle was quick to take action, her foot connecting with Danny's rear and sending him tumbling to the ground.

"Belle, don't bully the handsome guy anymore. You've punished him countless times along the way. Despite his thick skin, he can't withstand this much punishment. What if you beat him to death? Then the two of us won't be able to get out of Purple Gold Hill."

"Are you taking pity on him?" Belle asked with a teasing smile.

"Pity him, that handsome guy? I'm not the least bit sorry for him! I just think he's useful for something, so don't play him to death."

Victoria deliberately played down her concerns, but deep down, she was feeling a bit protective of Danny. Watching Belle knocking Danny around, she felt an odd pang of jealousy, almost as if her own man were being disciplined by another woman.

"Victoria, relax; he's a natural masochist. He enjoys being punished. No matter how much I punish him, he's happy. If he annoys you, feel free to give him a whack, too!" Belle passed Victoria a twig with a knowing grin. "Hit him! He behaves better after a good thrashing."

Victoria took the twig and called out to Danny, "Hand out!"

Obediently, Danny extended his hand. "Such a good boy, I won't hit you."
