Chapter 6: Noah
After talking to many females, Lyra got to know many things about the beast world. Here females can have as many mates as they want but a male can have only one mate in his lifetime. Also, females can cancel their spousal relationship with males if they don't like them anymore. It was sad for males, but given the less population of females, it was understandable.
After completing her food, Lyra got up from her place to look for water to drink. Hearing about a small stream from other females, she walked out of the banquet. After drinking, she turned around and started walking back into the banquet but stopped when she suddenly bumped into someone.
"Ah!" Lyra winced while holding her forehead and looking up at the one she bumped into.
It was a handsome man who was a head taller than her with crimson-colored nape-length hair with bright dark brown eyes. He was dripping with masculine charm and she couldn't stop herself from comparing him to Lucas. This man had broader shoulders, and a masculine body with a serious face, whereas Lucas was lean with muscles in all the right places.
Noah was getting bored entertaining his father's guests and went out of the banquet to take a breather but he never guessed that he would bump into a goddess. In the beginning, he felt annoyed because he was not in a good mood until he looked at her face.
He went blank and his heart started to beat furiously. Her soft body against him felt so good that he couldn't control his lips from arching.
Lyra was the first to break from her daze. She put her hand on his chest and pushed him a little to set some distance between them but it failed when the man tightened his hold on her instead of pushing her away.
Her small waist was seized in his hands and she felt him pulling her closer to him. She started to struggle but halted hearing a deep baritone voice.
"You bumped into me and now you are thinking of running away from me?"
Lyra blinked "Oh I'm sorry, I did not see you coming this way because of the dark. I apologize"
He smiled "If you are sorry then compensate me"
