Chapter 295 - So He Was Shedding Skin (1/2)

It had been many years since he shed skin. His first shedding after becoming mates with Bai Qingqing had caught him unaware. By the time he realized it, it was too late for him to find a place to shed his skin.

Curtis didn’t trust anyone and didn’t wish to expose his weakness. He had been planning on shedding his skin secretly at home, and it hadn’t been easy for him to hang on until both Bai Qingqing and Parker weren’t around. He had just started shedding his skin when Bai Qingqing came back.

His skin was starting to shed, but he bore with the piercing pain all over his body to stop the process. When he heard Bai Qingqing saying that she liked his snakeskin, Curtis finally couldn’t hold back any longer.

“Ssss—”

Curtis used his tongue to press against Bai Qingqing’s stomach, then curled her up with his tail, sending her out the door.

“Hey, hey, what are you doing?” Bai Qingqing headed into the room immediately after landing on the ground. Curtis rapidly drew his tail back and closed the door with a “bang”.

Should I tell Snow? Would she take the chance to kill me?

She won’t! Snow said that she liked me. She isn’t like other snake female beastmen! She wouldn’t bear to kill me!

“Don’t come in. I’m planning on shedding my skin. It might hurt you.” Curtis’s voice rang out from the secondary bedroom.

If Snow didn’t love him, it didn’t seem to matter even if he were to die.

Curtis had his back against the wooden door, the skin all over his body wrinkling up like that of an elderly person a 100 years old.

Snake beastmen didn’t have a good vision, to begin with, and when they were shedding their skin, they would almost be unable to see anything at all. The only reason Curtis was able to locate Bai Qingqing’s finger accurately earlier on was only that he was sensitive toward temperature.

Bai Qingqing’s mouth opened wide and she pressed her hand against the door. Oh god! Curtis is shedding his skin!

“Take your time. I’ll be waiting outside for you,” Bai Qingqing said. His reply was rustling rubbing sounds.
