The Smut-Novel Heroine in the Beast World - Chapter 3

I’d had a powerful sex drive since I was young.

But I’d never thought much of it.

A young woman in the prime of her life had needs. Perfectly normal.

Then, on my eighteenth birthday, an information panel appeared beside every man in the world.

I could see his size, experience level, and compatibility with me.

That was how I learned I was the heroine of a smut novel.

Take Gu Yuan, the wolf-eared CEO I’d just met.

He might be tall and broad, but his stats read:

Size (10–12)

Experience (57)

Compatibility (33%)

Since I came of age, the highest compatibility score I had ever seen was eighty-eight percent.

I had been waiting for my one-hundred-percent male lead to appear.

So far, no luck.

Then I met Xu Bai.

His stats were peculiar.

Size [1, +∞)

Experience (0)

Compatibility (98%)

So I promptly latched on to him.

I was dying of curiosity.

What did infinity even look like?

Xu Bai decided to adopt me.

He took me to a service counter to apply for my “human license.”

The licensing hall was the loudest place I had ever seen—and the one with the most humans.

Every beastman either led or carried one or two humans. Now and then, they struck up conversations with each other.

“Wow, yours is a black human too?”

“Female? Mine is pure-blooded and black too. If you ever need a breeding partner, you could consider my little human.”

“No thanks. I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to see him at night.”

Xu Bai’s gaze wandered. Who knew what he was thinking about?

Bored out of my mind, I flipped through the documents he had prepared.

The identity field actually said: “Octopus Prince.”

“Xu Bai.” I poked his arm.

He bent closer. “Mm?”

“Didn’t you say your clan drove you away? Why does your identity still say ‘Octopus Prince’?”

“It’s the identity Father gave me. It will stay with me for life.”

“Oh.” I understood.

“I don’t think I’ve told you yet. My name is Gu Yue.”

“It’s lovely.”

Even after answering, Xu Bai remained bent slightly toward me.

I tipped my head. “What is it?”

“Well…” He hesitated.

“?”

He moved even closer and lowered his voice until it was barely audible.

As he spoke, his lips brushed my ear every now and then.

“Why don’t I make you… feel good once before you decide whether to register with me?”

I stared, dumbfounded. “Huh?”

“I don’t want to deceive you. This license lasts for life. Once you register, you won’t be able to change owners.”

“I’ve… never served a human before. I’m afraid you won’t be satisfied.”

Dizzy, I said, “Oh. Okay.”

I had hardly heard what he was saying.

He was too close, his soft lips grazing me.

Every word sent warm breath spilling into the hollow of my ear.

It felt like tiny kisses at my ear, like secret puffs of air.

I had always been sensitive.

Two sentences from him and my knees had already gone weak.
