"Female, are we going or not?" Zayn's voice broke through Sunnie's thoughts as she turned to stare at them.
The four huge beastmen stood there, staring carefully at her.
Sunnie blinked, a hand on her stomach. She guessed it was their cub she would have to bear soon with the nourished womb!
"We have to find the last person..." Sunnie said. "So we can be able to leave."
"That rascal," Karl had his arms folded as he spoke. "Give up. You can't catch that sly fox. Let's just get going, he'll be back whenever he wants."
Sunnie couldn't do that. She had to successfully complete her task of getting all of them in a day before she died and went to beast hell or something.
"No. We have to..." Before she finished her sentence, they all heard a sound.
They turned to the distance where an apple had fallen to the ground.
They stared at that half-eaten apple for a while before they slowly looked up at the tree it had fallen off from.
Sunnie's eyes quickly met with a young man elegantly laying by his side on the tree branch, a hand resting on his chin and another feeding his mouth a red apple.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations Host! You've found one of your husbands.]
[Name: Eris]
[Status: Beast Husband]
[Species: Fox]
[Position: Fourth Beast husband]
He was red, Sunnie observed. The beautiful young man had slightly long red hair that extended to his shoulder, and then red fox ears.
His skin was gorgeous. Smooth and clear like one who had some steady skincare routine to keep to. There were no marks on his face.
The fox was wearing more clothes than the rest. He had some furry red animal skin over the top of his body, and then red lion clothes around his waist as well. The middle of his chest was exposed though, showing his abs which were smooth. Clear skin indeed.
Sunnie couldn't help but admire how gorgeous he looked. No wonder he was the extravagant playboy amongst them. The cunning sly fox.
Eris smiled down at Sunnie, his alluring smile already tugging on Sunnie's heartstrings! He was indeed a lady-killer!
"It seems the female has gotten rather feisty. I like that," he smiled at Sunnie. "Now I'm intrigued to know more about this new side of you."
Sunnie stared at him. "Hey! Get down from there now and let's go," she pushed her admiration off the window.
Eris smiled. "Should I? But I don't feel like it. I want to sleep some more here."
Sunnie wondered what damage this one could possibly be causing to the people. And then she recalled how sly a fox can be. Sly enough to swindle and deceive anyone.
Sunnie folded her arms, her expression firm. "Get down right now unless I..." She couldn't find the right threat to use for him.
Eris smiled, intrigued. He simply jumped down from the tree and landed effortlessly on the ground on both feet, the red beads around his ankles jiggling.
Eris walked up to Sunnie. He got close to her and then leaned his face down to meet hers. His face was so close that Sunnie could feel his breath over her, and it smelled like strawberries.
Sunnie stared into his red pupils, watching him smirk. She held her breath, hoping her thudding heart wouldn't be that loud.
"Unless you'll do what? Punish me? What type of punishment will you give me? I'm curious," he searched through her eyes.
Sunnie couldn't lose. She couldn't let this sly fox play with her. She knew she had to step up her game. She was more open than this beastman for crying out loud!
She stepped backwards and almost tripped, but Eris wrapped his hands around her waist, pulling her close to himself. Her boobs met his chest and his eyes searched through her face.
He leaned closer and sniffed her.
"The female is so neat and also smells so nice. I don't think I can hold myself from wanting to touch the female more..."
[Ding!]
[The fox is mildly captivated by The Host]
[Affection is moved]
[Reward: + 100 coins]
Sunnie brought up a finger and met Eris' jaw with it. Sunnie smiled. "Even if I were to let you touch me, I doubt you'll be able to handle me."
Eris was amazed by the bold reply, but he kept his calm with a smile. "Is that so? Is the female trying to test me or something?"
Sunnie ran her finger down his chest and to his abs. She felt each line with her fingers as she smiled at him. "Maybe? Are you up for it?"
Eris smiled, he felt his body reacting to the touch. "The female has gotten good at touching sensitive parts enough to trigger a curious fox. Are you sure you want to know what a fox can do when he's triggered?"
Sunnie stared into his eyes, her fingers going down to the loincloth around his waist. Her fingers had almost gone down to feel the manhood in-between his legs.
For a second there, she was actually curious to know if a fox like him had such assets. And if he did, how big it could be. Bigger than the mer man's?
But her fingers stopped halfway as she said, "I can do more than touch sensitive parts but I'm not really interested in knowing what a triggered fox can do." She smiled. "But if you want to know what a rabbit can do when triggered, you should definitely come back home with me."
Eris simply smiled as he stared at Sunnie's finger that was on his abs again. "Sure," he stared at her. "My greatest pleasure."
Sunnie smiled. She was glad it wasn't so hard to convince him at all. All she needed to do was play his horny game and voilà!
[Ding]
[Congratulations! The Host has successfully completed the system task!]
[All five husbands have been found and convinced]
[Punishment of death has been cancelled]
[Reward activated: +1000 heart coins!]
[Now the host can browse through the system store when needed to acquire objects and services within your price range!]
Sunnie sighed, relieved. At least she was able to complete that task and avoid death and beast hell or whatever.
But before she could think further, they heard a loud voice from a distance.
Some group of beastmen were approaching in fury.
