Natalie patted Peter soothingly and gave a light laugh. “We have succeeded now haven’t we, so don’t worry. Everything is fine now.”
Peter frowned as he watched Natalie with an aching heart. She had numerous scars all over her body and was unconscious for so many days… all because of him.
“So my bout of barbaric and violent urges was because of that?” Peter asked.
Natalie nodded. “The key to triggering the reversal of the mating contract was the fact I love you and bore children for you. So…”
After some careful thinking, Peter had indeed started being more violent after the birth of those six little ones. But it wasn’t that obvious at the beginning, and he could still suppress those tendencies. But after going with Gu Mengmeng to retrieve the Soul of the Forest and being affected by the white mist, he gradually started losing control of his bloodthirsty urges.
Peter frowned and looked at Gu Mengmeng. “So when I begged you to bring Natalie away, you asked me to come and ask her?”
Gu Mengmeng nodded. “Mmm, I had expected you would beg this favor of me. Because Lea told me before, that he insisted Elvis partner with me first because he needed someone with the power and whom he could trust to protect me and take ma away should he lose control. Elvis also said something like that to me… I think all males have this way of thinking. So I had already taught Natalie how to handle that. Ha… those television shows weren’t lying.”
Natalie also smiled. “Yes, I used that seven-word mantra that the Great Messenger taught me to subdue you until you were fully compliant.”
“Seven-word mantra?” Peter appeared perplexed. Elvis and Lea also exchanged glances before looking at Gu Mengmeng.
Natalie looked at Gu Mengmeng again before asking, “Great Messenger, this… can I tell them?”
Gu Mengmeng looked somewhat awkward. She tugged Natalie’s hand. “You are Elvis’ mother and my elder. It embarrasses me a bit to be called Great Messenger by you. Why don’t you call me Mengmeng like how Elvis does?”
“No way.” Elvis immediately opposed without even waiting for Natalie to open her mouth. “Only I can call her Mengmeng. If you want to snatch that from me… you must win me first.”
Peter tilted his head and looked affectionately at Natalie. “Do you like that form of address? I will snatch it over for you.”
Gu Mengmeng held her forehead. This Beast World was indeed full of ridiculous behavior. Was there a need to fight over such a thing?
She waved. “Why don’t you call me Xiao Gu ”
Natalie kept stealing glances at Elvis’s face. Seeing that he had no objections, she gave a light laugh and said. “Alright, I will call you Xiao Gu.”
The two females had made their decision. So Elvis and Peter didn’t have an excuse to fight and had no choice but to leave it as that.
“Xiao Gu, can I tell them about the seven-word mantra? If I reveal it… will it be ineffective in future?” Natalie asked with some doubt.
Gu Mengmeng smiled. “Don’t worry, so what if they know? As long as they love us, they are helpless even with the seven-word mantra.”
Natalie thought about it and agreed. She giggled. “You have a point there.”
The three males got goosebumps from hearing the laughter of their females. They felt that this seven-mantra must be something really powerful. The more the two females kept them guessing, the more they wanted to know. Three pairs of eyes stared fixedly at their own female, waiting for them to clarify.
