"Why do you want to poison me? Do you badly want me to die?" Long Cheng asked while unable to mask the hurt laced on his voice. He then cleared his throat as he felt like losing his breath. He can also feel his beast despair for their mate, wanting them to die.

He then added softly, "Do you know what I am to you? Probably you do not know. If something happened to me, you also would feel pain. Meili do I-" Whatever he wanted to say halted when Lu Meili covered his mouth.

"Shut up." She spoke dangerously; her face was so close that Long Cheng could see how her black eyes bleed green to surround each pupil. "Do you want to know how I was able to bring you here? Nod if you want to know."

Long Cheng then nodded dazedly as he found himself fascinated with her eyes that looked like those of a panther as they glared at him while they glowed slightly.

She then removed her hand that was covering his mouth roughly before the hill of her thumbs started massaging her head.

"What's wrong?" He asked worriedly, trying to lift his body closer to her to check, forgetting all the things that he wanted to know regarding her race.

After Lu Meili released a deep sigh, "You are giving me a headache." She replied, tone laced with annoyance.

"I am sorry, but-"

"Shut it. You owe me your life, so you will do what I want." Lu Meili uttered firmly.

Frowning, "What do you mean?" Long Cheng may have an idea of what Lu Meili is talking about.

He was out hunting alone earlier as a hobby when his surrounding was suddenly engulfed by sleeping mist. With the way Lu Meili was talking it seems, she was not the one that caused it, and something happened when he passed out.

"After I lost consciousness, someone else arrived to kill me. Is that what you are trying to say?" He asked, pretending to be interested as the incident earlier was the least of his concern at that moment.

Nodding her head, Lu Meili added further, "Yes. I found you surrounded by men in dark robes. Their faces wereare covered." She stated seriously.

"What?! Did you fight them?! Were you hurt somewhere?!" Long Cheng's outburst is understandable. The assassins sent to kill him should be formidable. They were able to catch him off guard after all with a sleeping mist.

"Do I look hurt to you?" Lu Meili replied irritated as if the mere thought of her being hurt was degrading to her.

Long Cheng did not notice her expression as he was busy scanning every part of her that he could see clearly. He also could not sense any smell of blood, which made him feel better.


"You were looking for me all this time?" Long Cheng suddenly asked with a tender smile on his face as he looked at her expectantly.

He wasis not surprised but quite pleased, that there is a way for Lu Meili to look for him as a mate talisman is common. All Long Cheng could think of was that she took the initiative to find him.

'Probably there is really no problem between us.' Long Cheng happily thought to himself.

Since she did not reply, he continued, "You know that we are linked to each other. I know it. You would not have saved me if not." He explained confidently.

"No." Lu Meili refused tightly. "You will drink the poison if you want me to untie you."

Hearing that, Long Cheng laughed mockingly, "Drink the poison coming from my own mate?" Long Cheng understood that Lu Meili was just cautious, but his pride could not just accept that he is being treated this way.

"Fine! So be it! I will drink it, but only if you give it from your mouth!" Long Cheng declared challengingly.

For him, Lu Meili did not need to tell him about her saving him. As a mate, he is willing to die, protecting her.

"If you really want to kill me, then I accept it. Delivering my poison from my mate's lips does not sound like a bad way to die." He added when she saw her hesitating.

Her expression turned cold before she held his jaw tightly with a hand prying his mouth to open. Long Cheng resisted angrily, as his beast surfaced with the fangs becoming sharper.

Regardless of how angry he was, he did not have the heart to lash at Lu Meili even if she poured all the contents of the small bottle inside his mouth.

The acrid taste of the toxic burned his throat, and even though he tried to spit it out, Lu Meili held his jaw, forcing him to face up so he could swallow the liquid.

She then released her hold, allowing him to look at her sadly. "Happy-" Whatever he was supposed to say was again halted, this time with her lips…
