Chapter 47, Manli's Resentment_1

"What? You were asked to gather the Fruit of Divine Punishment!" Manli laid on a beast skin covered with thickdry straw, avidly chewing on a bloody piece of meat from a green bull beast. Blood dripped from her chin onto the beast skin as six orcs squat or stood around in the cave.

One of them, sturdy and indifferent, stood at the cave entrance, staring blankly at her.

Manli struggled to her feet with the assistance of a gray-haired orc, and looked at Fu Yi with anger in her eyes.

"Why should they assign you this task without asking me first? You're my mate. Aren't you supposed to discuss it with me before committing to anything? The winter will be harsh this year. Are you really okay with letting me and our cub starve instead of going out to hunt? I disagree!" Manli angrily flung her piece of meat on the ground, the sound of her voice grating on the ears.

"We are not mates yet." The orc responded flatly, his tone unwavering.
