Did not come back

She had hurt her tail real bad , metallic smell of a blood filled the air..

"Sssss...." Locus flicked out his long , slim and icy cold tongue to lick away the blood on her tail where she was injured, ying yue flinched when he licked her tail ... " wha... what are you doing ....!" She hesitated and quickly tried to get away from him but he held her in place with his hand , he brought his handsome face closer to the wound and blew cool air on it, ignoring her protest !

Surprisingly the way he licked and blew air on her wound actually made it less painful and she felt better as it stopped stinging!

He then looked around for some medicinal plant and after cleaning the wound he wrapped her tail with those leaves the same way we use bandage in modern world !

So this snake guy even know how to disinfect and treat wounds ?

After making sure everything was properly done he took her gently in his arms and glided towards his cave silently ! It was so silent that it felt almost suffocating to ying yue ! He did not say a single word on the way back and ying yue did not dare utter another word from her snaky mouth, looking at his cold aura !

Is he mad because I tried to escape , he must be right ? or is he feeling bad for me getting injured or is it both ? She couldn't really tell and she did not dare ask ! It's better to be silent in such situations, she knew at least this much, that's how she was able to hold on for twenty two long painful years !

Sun has set and moon was taking its place up in the sky as it started getting dark !

As soon as he came back to the cave, he gently placed ying yue on a patch of a grass.

He has caught a fish from lake on his way back to the cave , Which he was holding in his tail .

He placed the fish in front of her and gestured her to eat .

Ying yue looked at the fish , it was very much alive and it writhed helplessly on the ground from lack of water !

"Eat !" He ordered .

"I don't want to...!" She murmured, partly she was still not used to eating raw and alive animals just like that and for other reasons as to protest against him !!

Hearing their conversation the poor fish seemed like a bit relieved as if thinking to himself or herself ' Thank god , she doesn't want to eat me , can I consider this as you guys are sparing my life ? May I get going back to the water then?... plz.. ?!'

But then ying yue's tubelike tummy growled , completely not cooperating with her ...

And the fish suddenly started to wriggle again as if panicked as to what gonna happen with it now !

Embarrassed ying yue turned her face away from him, he just grabbed the fish in hand and carelessly twisted it in his hands making it to crumble and die !

Then he placed the dead fish again in front of Ying yue and he himself went out of the cave , leaving ying yue and dead fish alone there !

When he was out of sight she sighed,

'He is really unpredictable and cold yet he seems to be caring '

She thought of going on hunger strike , like they do in her world , for example when government doesn't agree to public demands protestors would not eat anything until their demands are fulfilled !

But her stomach growled again disagreeing with her thoughts ! She was really hungry.

'Forget everything, I will just eat this one time , one should not say no to food right ?' With that she started swallowing that fish slowly and silently.

She wondered as to what Locus could be doing outside and does males don't need to eat much ? Why he left all the food for her and he did not even take a bite ?

Sure this little fish won't be sufficient considering his huge and strong body .

After eating the whole fish she was feeling much better now and without even realising it sleep took over her and she fell asleep after a while .

When Locus finally came back in cave he saw curled up ying yue sleeping soundly. Warmth spread in his cold heart looking at her peaceful face .

'Sssss...' He transformed in his complete snake form and got his snake face near hers, he stared at her like that for quite a while before brushing his thin red lips against her snake lips . He breathed in her delicate scent ,

'She looks so beautiful even in her beast form , I wonder how she would look when she comes of age and finally transforms in her human form . I can't wait to see her true beauty .'

He encircled his tail smoothly around her curled up frame and fell asleep beside her .

Next day ying yue woke up to only find herself lying alone in a cave, she blinked and turned her head to look around inside the cave , only to find it empty and there was no trace of Locus !

'So he did not come back, not even to rest ? Well ! Good for me ...'

Yawning lazily she stretched out her snake body .

'Let's go out and get some fresh morning air !' As soon as she made slithering moves her tail hurt !

"Ahh.. ouch .. !" She let out a soft cry

'Right , I completely forgot about this , I am injured and I can't run away anymore, so that's why he just let me be so freely knowing I won't go anywhere!'

"You woke up " Locus asked in his usual icy tone as he walked in .

Ying yue looked up at him , 'if not for him being this scary and cold blooded , I wouldn't have minded for him being my mate , he is really handsome when he transforms into his human form ! But the way he acts is actually so scary , may be that is the reason he is still single ...'

But she didn't have time for mating or considering partner here at this moment ! she just came to this world and first she needs to understand this place better to survive and to become strong so she could fend for herself no matter what unlike her previous self she wanted to become stronger and invincible ! if god has given her new life as a snake , she wanted to become the strongest snake and live this life to its fullest ! Rest all the things felt secondary to her !
