Exiled Villainess: They Threw Me Out, Now Every Beastman Wants Me

Ermin’s throat worked as he swallowed, and she felt his reaction before she saw it.

His body had gone rigid against hers, and the arm around her had tightened. But when she glanced down, the evidence was far more obvious.

The hide covering his lap did absolutely nothing to conceal the thick outline straining against the fabric. The shape of him pressed upward, and her mouth went dry at the memory of exactly what that outline felt like inside her.

’Oh. That was easy.’

Tera was already feeling plenty horny herself, especially when her body had been denied for weeks.

The space between her thighs pulsed with a need that had been building since long before this rain.

She reached to grab his cock when Ermin caught her wrist.

"Tera."

The heat in her belly stuttered. "What?"

His jaw was tight, and the strain in his expression told her that stopping her hand was costing him physically. His cock was visibly twitching beneath the hide, the fabric shifting with each pulse, and the grip on her wrist was trembling with restraint.

But his voice was firm.

"You are carrying a cub. You should not exert yourself like this."

Her arousal sank beneath a wave of disappointment so heavy it pressed against her chest.

Not again.

"You and Xavi have been saying that for weeks." Her voice came out quieter than she intended, the playfulness completely gone. "I am not made of glass, Ermin. The baby is fine. I am fine. Having sex while pregnant does not harm the baby, and your seed would even help me get more strength to prepare me for delivery."

"You don’t—"

"I know my own body." She pulled her wrist free, not aggressively, but with a resigned finality that felt worse than anger. "I know what I can handle."

Tera leaned away from him, pulled her knees up to her chest and wrapped her arms around them.

The rejection shouldn’t have stung this much. It wasn’t like she hadn’t been turned down before. Both Xavi and Ermin had been gently but firmly deflecting her advances for weeks now, treating her pregnancy like a fragile condition that required absolute physical abstinence.

But it did sting every single time.

Tera rested her chin on her knees and watched the rain fall beyond their silk canopy. The steady drum of water on the broad leaves above filled the silence between them.

Puff Dumpling snored softly beside her, his round body rising and falling with each tiny breath. His moustache puffs had dried into two lopsided poofs that made him look permanently startled.

At least someone was content.

’Maybe I should just stop trying,’ she thought, and the sadness in that thought surprised her.

Ermin watched her. He partly wished she had put up a bit of a fight, but Tera had just accepted it, and it made him a bit sad.

It wasn’t generally wise to mate with a pregnant female, but Tera had been prying for it as though it wasn’t a problem.

The silk-leaf clothes had gone translucent where the rain had saturated the fabric, clinging to the low dip of her back. His cock throbbed painfully against his thigh.

Why wouldn’t he want his mate? But the cubs...

He wanted to touch her and kiss the rain off her skin, but that would escalate into something else.

Ermin wondered if she was right about mating making her stronger during pregnancy. She was strangely knowledgeable due to whatever massive impact her head had gotten, and she surprisingly knew a lot of things about their bodies, like how that strange movement helped the pregnant females.

Maybe mating during pregnancy was safe if she said it was safe.

And she wasn’t heavily pregnant...

Ermin’s eyes dropped to those pouted lips and he wanted to kiss them.

That would satisfy him for now, and maybe it would satisfy her. She liked it a lot whenever he and Xavi kissed her.

"Tera."

She turned her head slightly but didn’t look at him fully. The side-eye she gave him almost made him laugh, but he had to stop himself.

Ermin reached out and turned her face to him, and Tera’s mouth was still pinched tight.

She was about to stubbornly turn her face away from him when he kissed Tera.

Tera’s breath hitched. For a moment, she didn’t move, as if afraid that responding would make him pull away again.

Ermin kissed her again, deeper this time, his tongue sliding against hers in a slow, unhurried stroke that sent warmth spreading down through her chest and settling between her legs.

’YAY!’

Tera melted into him and kissed him back, wrapping her arms around him.

She could feel his heartbeat hammering, and it betrayed his composure as the kiss deepened.

Tera slightly pushed and was already climbing onto his lap, ready to ride him into oblivion when Ermin paused to look up at her, his breathing ragged.

"Lie back."

The look in his eyes, coupled with his demanding tone, sent a pulse of heat straight to her core.

She lowered herself onto the soft moss beneath the canopy, the cool, damp earth cushioning her back as the silk leaves above filtered the grey light into something gentler.

Ermin followed her down, hovering above her on one arm. Rainwater dripped from the tips of his pink hair onto her collarbone, and each cool drop against her heated skin made her shiver.

His eyes traced her face, her neck, her chest, with an expression that made her stomach flip.

"You are beautiful," he murmured.

Tera’s heart stuttered, and her eyes widened. She wasn’t sure how, but he had never actually said that to her before. Not once across all of this, even though his eyes had said that multiple times.

Her cheeks heated up, and out of all emotions, she found herself feeling a bit shy.

’This is so weird...’

But she liked it.

She covered her mouth and shyly averted her eyes. "Say it again."

His ears flattened with embarrassment, but he didn’t look away. "You are beautiful."

Her chest fluttered again.

Before she could say anything, Ermin kissed her again, and his mouth moved from her lips to the curve of her neck, pressing slow, open-mouthed kisses along the damp skin. Each one lingered, his breath hot against the cool rainwater, and the contrast made goosebumps race across her arms and down her breasts.

He was being so gentle.

His hands found the ties of her silk-leaf top and loosened them carefully.

The fabric fell open, and the cool air met her bare breasts at the same time his warm palm covered one.

Tera arched into his touch with a soft moan.
