Cody's prenatal education method
Anita leaned against the headboard, gently combing Knox's black hair with her fingertips.
This man who had come from the edge of the stars was now curled up in her lap like a big cat, allowing her to stroke the sensitive skin behind his ears.
"Are you tired?" she asked softly.
Knox closed his eyes and hummed softly, his arms tightening around her waist: "As long as I'm by your side, no matter how far the journey is, I won't feel tired."
As he spoke, he raised his head and kissed her fingertips gently, "Besides, being able to smell your scent is the best healing."
Ethan and Cody froze at the same time beside the bed.
Cody stared at Knox's natural affectionate movements, and suddenly remembered that when he was in the Snow Owl Tribe, this guy pretended to be a cold bodyguard, but now he was as clingy as melted caramel -
As expected, all males will reveal their true colors in front of Anrita.
Cody touched his dry hair and decided to take a shower first.
Ethan was pacing around the room, wishing he could whip up a table of hot dishes right away.
Unfortunately, when he was in the tribe, he even burnt the animal bone soup.
Fortunately, the hotel quickly delivered a nutritious meal prepared for the females, and the aroma of roasted snow rabbit meat and hot fruit tea filled the air.
Meanwhile, Henry's tracker finally locked onto the signal.
When the group arrived at the inn, Ethan was guarding the door. Seeing his brother's gloomy face, the tip of his tail couldn't help but tremble.
When he got into trouble as a child, Henry took him to clean the animal pen with this look.
"Ethan, do you know what you did?"
Henry suppressed his anger.
Valua simply pushed him aside and strode into the room.
When he saw the two people hugging each other on the bed, his pupils suddenly shrank and his hand was already on the hilt of the lightsaber at his waist.
Knox looked up, the faint blue light in his pupils confronted him, and crackling sparks of mental power instantly burst out in the air.
Henry dragged Ethan to the end of the corridor and said in a low voice: "When did the second form awaken? Why is there no record?"
"I don't know either!"
Ethan scratched his hair. "When I lost control, I suddenly became smaller. It was like an instinctive reaction..."
He thought of how Anita held him in her hand like a little black bird, and his ears felt hot.
Henry was silent for a moment, then patted him on the shoulder. "Landry is already retrieving your differentiation records. Go back and cooperate with the inspection this time."
He glanced at the door and said in a slower tone, "How is the Saint?"
"She fell asleep." Ethan stared down at his paws. "She...didn't blame me."
"That's good." Henry smiled, a rare smile. "She did some deep counseling for you, even leaving you with a mental imprint. What are you afraid of?"
He poked Ethan's forehead and said, "Be thick-skinned and follow her back to the main planet. Don't follow my example—"
He suddenly stopped, realizing that he had let the cat out of the bag.
Ethan looked up in surprise, only to see Henry's ears flushed and he coughed twice:
"Anyway, most of the females on the main planet are spoiled. Even someone as gentle as Anrita...that kid Cody doesn't know how to cherish her."
"Cody?" Ethan raised an eyebrow. "Doesn't he always say 'females don't need males'?"
"That's why he's stupid."
Henry shook his head. "Back in the military academy, he used his python's tail to block a laser cannon to save a female cadet. Now he's hiding in the Snow Owl Tribe as a lone wolf."
This is exactly what Valua saw when he broke into the room.
His Anritsa was held in the arms of a strange man, whose fingertips were lovingly caressing her pregnant belly.
"It's you!"
Valua's voice was like a taut bowstring, and his dark golden pupils were filled with raging rage.
As a Lieutenant General in the Space Marines, he could never forget the figure on the surveillance video dragging Anita into the wormhole, nor could he forgive the man who had left Charlie lying in the medical bay. Knox raised an eyebrow, gently gathered the blanket around Anita with his fingertips, and placed a kiss on her forehead.
This act of asserting sovereignty made Valua's solar plexus throb, and his hand had already pressed on the particle gun at his waist.
"Cody."
Knox turned his head, his voice carrying a rare gentleness, "Come and take care of Anrita."
Cody, who had just walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel, was stunned - this was the first time Knox called his name.
He walked over while wiping his wet hair. When he saw Valua, his eyes lit up: "Valua? How did you catch up here? The tiger form is indeed much faster than the python!"
"I have something to discuss with him." Knox pointed out the window. "You stay."
Cody watched Knox's back as he jumped out of the third-floor window, then looked at Anita sleeping in the bed, and suddenly realized that this was a great opportunity to be alone.
He hurriedly put on his trousers, climbed onto the bed with a red face, and touched her pregnant belly with trembling fingertips.
"Little ones,"
He lowered his voice, the tips of his ears red as blood dripped, "I'm Cody, and I'll protect you from now on... Dad."
Just as he finished speaking, he felt a sudden kick in his stomach. Cody retracted his hand as if stung and stared at Anita's belly.
"What? You dislike me because I'm a snake? Are Knox's tentacles better than snakes? They're all slippery and have no legs..."
He was muttering to himself about his pregnant belly when Henry and Ethan pushed the door open and saw Cody lying on Anritsu's belly.
"What is His Highness Cody doing?" Ethan raised his eyebrows.
"prenatal education!"
Cody raised his index finger and shushed, "Don't disturb the babies. I'm teaching them about the superiority of snakes."
Just as Ethan was about to speak, the ground suddenly shook.
Henry looked out the window and saw that on the distant hilltop, Knox's tentacles were fighting with Valua's tiger claws. Amid the flying gravel, the two men's mental powers stirred up visible ripples.
"They have such a good relationship?" Ethan was bewildered.
"Maybe they're exchanging parenting experiences."
Cody tucked in Anritsu's blanket seriously, "After all, we'll be serving the mistress together in the future, so we have to learn how to get along."
Henry looked at Cody who was holding Anita calmly on the bed, and suddenly remembered the boy in the military academy file who used his python tail to withstand the plasma cannon in order to save the female cadet.
It turns out that some hypocrisy is nothing but a clumsy heartbeat.
The battle outside the window gradually subsided. When Valua came back with scars all over his body, he saw Cody curled up beside Anrita, Ethan squatting beside the bed and massaging her feet, and Knox using his tentacles to roll up a hot towel to wipe her hands.
And his Anrita was holding Cody's fingertips with a gentle smile on her lips.
"Come here." She opened her arms to him.
Valua was stunned for a moment, then walked slowly towards her like a tamed beast, allowing her to touch the scar on his forehead.
The room was filled with the aroma of hot cocoa, and five males surrounded her.
When Anrita woke up from her sleep, she found that it was Cody who was guarding her.
The tall, wheat-skinned man was lying beside her abdomen, muttering to himself. The whispers of Hogg and Ethan could be faintly heard outside the door.
Anita blinked and asked softly, "Cody, what are you mumbling about?"
Cody shuddered violently, obviously startled by the sudden noise.
He sat up straight, his ears red as he stammered, "Nothing, nothing, just doing some prenatal education for the babies..."
For example, teach them to call dad and get along well with the snake.
