The Villainess Redeems Herself, The Beast Husbands are in a Daily Love Battle-Chapter 62: Is There Really a Child?
Unless Selene Kane agrees to set her cousin free, she’s not considering adding any new members to the family temporarily.
She knows that the engagement between her cousin and Selene Kane is merely a product of family alliances.
But as long as that contract remains unbroken, she can’t rightfully approach him.
She would rather wait than be the third party interfering in someone else’s relationship.
"I’m not old either, just eighteen! Right now, I haven’t decided how many to marry, but I might end up with more than you in the future!"
"Who wouldn’t boast? You young females have no idea what marrying a Beast Husband means. It’s not just something you say; you have to bear the responsibility of reproduction, endure the pain of childbirth, suffer through the agony of postpartum confinement, and balance the emotions and family relationships among multiple partners."
Her face was haggard, the faint dark circles under her eyes revealed the traces of long-term lack of rest.
However, her skin was well-maintained, having used expensive skincare products for years, her face remained tight and smooth, her figure still maintained a proportional curve with no signs of distortion.
From a distance, she looked just over thirty.
Joni puffed up her chest, stood upright with confidence, her tone couldn’t hide the pride.
"My body is fine, even if I have a child for each Beast Husband, I can handle it. I’m young, I recover quickly, full of energy, how could I be worn out like you by a few kids?"
"Pfft."
The female suddenly laughed out loud, deliberately covering her mouth with her hand, pretending to conceal the corners of her lips.
Yet the sarcasm in her eyes couldn’t be hidden.
She laughed until her shoulders shook, as if hearing an extremely ridiculous joke.
She tugged at a nearby male with orange ears and pushed him forward, "Kneel down."
The male paused, the tips of his ears twitching slightly, seemingly surprised by the command, but after a brief moment, he obediently kneeled on the ground, his knees making a soft sound when they touched the floor.
He lowered his head, his voice gentle yet clear, "Master."
"Tell her how many children I have given you."
The male slowly raised his head to look at her, his eyes soft and bright.
His voice trembled slightly, filled with genuine pride.
"Thank you, Master, for giving me four children. My family and I are especially grateful. You are a benefactor to us, never to be forgotten."
He paused, his tone more sincere.
"Being chosen by you is my blessing. Regardless of the past or future, I will remain loyal to you alone. My life is complete thanks to you, my lineage is extended because of you."
Joni’s smile froze, the overt confidence solidifying on her face.
But she quickly clenched her teeth, suppressing the unease, striving to maintain surface calm.
She couldn’t help but speak, her voice sounding slightly sharp.
"This male loves you so much, and yet you treat him this way? He has dignity too, he’s not just your servant! Don’t forget, he was once the pride of his family, with his own pride and boundaries!"
The female’s eyes chilled immediately, the smile on her lips long gone.
"Do you know how many partners I have?"
Joni looked down guiltily, her fingers knitting together subconsciously, her mind racing to calculate.
Ten partners?
If each had four children, wouldn’t there be forty?
Sweat palm, the palm moist and damp, she unconsciously touched her stomach, her brow furrowed tightly.
Her fingers lightly glided over her flat belly.
Will she also have to do this in the future?
Give birth to so many?
Year after year, children constantly, her body emptied repeatedly...
For the first time, she felt fear.
Selene Kane also quieted down.
In this world, females are responsible for birthing, their numbers scarce, yet their status is confined within a narrow range because of it.
Reproduction has almost become their sole mission and embodiment of value.
Every female is expected, from birth, to continue the bloodline for the tribe.
While their freedom, dreams, and even lives might be silently consumed with every childbirth.
When she first crossed over, she complained daily.
Why isn’t it the males getting pregnant?
This is the Beastman World, where entities exist with Beast Form, capable of tearing apart beasts.
Why still adhere to such outdated values?
On Vorath, she’d seen too many women oppressed by the burdens of childbirth.
Unexpectedly, after crossing over, she fell into such a trap again.
The system responded coldly, stating this matter isn’t under its jurisdiction.
It can only handle the "Good Luck Pregnancy" function module.
Such as increasing the chances of conception, optimizing embryo development, reducing the risk of difficult labor, etc.
Since she crossed over into a female body in this world.
She can only take up the corresponding role, unable to change the gender setting.
It repeatedly emphasized, these are rules, not within its scope of interference.
The system even advised her not to obsess, attempting to use the points system to encourage her acceptance of reality.
Having more children, fulfilling tribe tasks, naturally increases points, allowing her to exchange for better resources and skills, ensuring a more secure future.
It spoke as if it was obvious.
Selene Kane rolled her eyes at that time, internally scoffing.
Whether it’s you giving birth or having someone else give birth, can it be the same?
Who feels the pain?
Whose body is harmed?
Whose lifespan is consumed?
No amount of points can recover the autonomy that’s been revoked.
She’s argued, protested, even once considered smashing the system interface.
But the system held fast to the rules, offering only an upgrade of "reproductive assistance technologies."
Like painless childbirth, gene selection, etc.
Otherwise, it feigned ignorance, unmoved by any threats she made.
Thankfully, she had too many regrets in her past life, broken family ties, unfulfilled career, love torn apart.
Because the unfinished obsessions in her heart, she didn’t really go to extremes, bringing the system to mutual destruction.
Otherwise, this body would have been destroyed in an emotional outburst.
Caleb Shaw’s expression relaxed a bit, the coldness in his eyes slightly dissipating.
He looked at Selene Kane’s profile, his voice low as he praised.
"This female, quite responsible."
His tone carried a hint of surprise, mixed with some recognition.
Selene Kane heard it, glanced at him cautiously, her look filled with vigilance.
She said nothing, quietly moving a few steps aside, increasing the distance between them.
She didn’t want to get too close, who knows if this guy will suddenly lash out?
It was the right decision not to tell him the truth back then.
She thought coldly to herself.
If he really knew she had no intention of having children, even the system couldn’t persuade her.
He’d probably not let her step out the door.
With Caleb Shaw’s personality, strong control, he absolutely wouldn’t allow an "uncooperative" female to act freely.
Caleb Shaw fell into silence, a hint of seriousness between his brows.
He suddenly recalled how a few days ago he was urgently summoned back to the tribe.
It was because this female suddenly claimed she was pregnant.
At that time, the tribe was in upheaval, the elders immediately ordered her protection to be strengthened.
He himself was forced to end his outside tasks early and rush back.
Moreover, during his previous interactions with her, he vaguely sensed an extremely peculiar aura.
The aura didn’t belong to ordinary females, carrying a faint yet distinct life pulse.
That feeling was fleeting, he didn’t delve into it then, but now thinking back, it seems increasingly off.
Could it be...
There really is his child in her belly?
