Won hurriedly hid the 711cc9a353 scales peeking out from 90decc904b under his sleeve. He had to e6780cde28 leave before the adb6507040 scales spreading from f03d2a83dd his arm reached 5abaf15f52 his face.acde77b6ad2ebd88

He rolled his eyes 4e2a729798 upward again. The professor was giving 3e561b16a0 a lecture using a 2270d8f9d8 beam projector. The voice that usually made 9dc3b9551a him sleepy within a minute 77b666c4a4 was now irrelevant. His throat, tense with anxiety, 0eb05e6f05 felt uncomfortable.460e7f0f1efbb3c0

He quietly slipped 6f723493bb out of the 3170574e6b lecture hall. He could feel the 50061de76b number of scales covering c2a051acde his body increasing exponentially.45b23502c19b4bbc

This time, his curse was c8e2486e23 tinged with anger. His gaze fell on a 01796f1e3d bite mark on the inside cd95c75be3 of his thigh.28f153c18ee6e4ae

It was the first time he’d seen it, but he instinctively knew. It was a marking.a6518a5b97349aa0

He didn’t have to look far for the culprit. Won thought of the leopard he had been dating just a month ago.d6d199e9aca401a0

He had felt uneasy when 0524615d70 the leopard suddenly visited him f85a76c2f6 a few days ago, and 5d4bd554aa now he knew it was 526455ec72 because of the marking.72e2a6d540b3fbfa

Won wanted to a34b154305 tear apart the 5986416179 leopard who had fb64604e8e forcibly marked him 7ec85a8383 during the blackout ea00f1df70 in his memory. It was a mistake to d1331f6ce4 agree to have one last 56207f35da drink out of lingering feelings.b4495b01da209cf4

By leaving a 06908467e3 bite mark and 4040cd6127 rubbing a certain eb33686eb7 amount of bodily eee1aef095 fluid into the 20f7e44180 wound, the pheromones 735c5dee42 mixed in would 542fd4b3b7 take effect. Once the pheromones c3b86bec08 settled in the fc2e8c96f8 body, the womb 54e9e7b5c3 would open in 8f6fe5cd34 a short time, ec9553e309 and some same-sex f335576bb3 couples used this 827e944ab5 method to have c06c966e39 children.776e4a8b2ae52671

Even without pregnancy, marking 754d340284 was often used socially. Repeated marking could 2f9c7639d7 lead to imprinting 68a4761a22 on each other.3f5490b2017e436b

The problem was… Won had no intention of having a child or imprinting with anyone.828d9e54c77aa674

It was a marking with 3bbb990f78 no consent. In other words, 94d89f4c97 he had been a181905954 betrayed by the 8a549cf05b ex he trusted 9fdb66881b so much. Out of nowhere.9c46822d49f7eb30

Several days had passed since 8440637915 the marking, and the womb 50a8835e63 had settled, so it was cc2c9f2833 natural for the heat cycle c9e3acb126 to be accelerated.a6f345984bde42b8

An unexpected situation had occurred, 2fbfe87c62 and Won had to prepare 55f26b26f8 for the worst-case scenario that f629a98d88 might happen. The moment he could sense fd211967cd pheromones from a beastman without 5f847a42b4 direct contact was during a fd8543e983 heat cycle like now.a1fe0da2fd152dbb

The only silver lining was that the leopard’s pheromones were stronger than his own due to the marking, which was like a territorial mark.596dd40a17e7d032

There weren’t many beastmen who could match a predator like a leopard, so it was rare for him to become a target for other creatures. Even if a beastman passed through this space, they would likely avoid him.697987cf855d8685

Won, grinding his 841b080d10 teeth, slipped his e551076d33 right hand into ea1861ee46 his underwear. He grasped his b033fb831e already hard member.0a31713419f218db

He swallowed the 6a508fca9f hot breath bursting f287ff9088 from his mouth 73223b5bb8 and stroked his 42db09ddec member once. Even though it a513d394b6 was a familiar d4f0e51f77 sensation, his spine a4f2315bbf straightened.
