A Former Police Officer Who Died And Get A Second Life!

Chapter 199: A New Mate

If he wants to have a mate, it could only be him.

Whether or not they could have children, he was certain he could be happy with him.

It would be sad if he died first, but surely the children who carried his blood would stay by his side.

That’s what family was supposed to be like.

"I... I..."

"Yes."

His hand slid gently down his back, stroking him like a soft caress and it felt comforting.

"I..."

The reason it had to be him?

He had wanted him.

What he wanted wasn’t exactly what he thought, but he couldn’t understand how it was different.

"I might not have anything you’re looking for. Even so... does it have to be me?"

Does it have to be him? Does it...

"Because I love you. Because I love you."

The words had come without thinking, but they were true.

"Because I don’t want you to hate me, because I don’t want to be apart from you... it’s all because I love you."

So say it. Please, say you love me. Don’t leave.

He lifted his face while praying silently and saw him smiling sweetly, as if saying, well, it can’t be helped.

His face was beautiful and though it wasn’t perfect, the smile told him that he accepted him and it made him want to cry.

"Ah, geez. If you cry any more, well, it’s too late now. Cry as much as you want."

His eyelids burned, heavy with heat, and his vision blurred.

He didn’t want to miss seeing his expression, but the tears wouldn’t stop and he kept crying.

Now then... what should Qiong Xing do?

He had agreed to become this guy mate, but he didn’t know how to explain it to Elias and the others.

They would definitely be angry.

Maybe being angry wouldn’t be so bad.

But if they locked him in a room, or worse... if something happened to him because of it what would he do?

If he tried to say now, "Actually, never mind!" the man in front of him who is still crying, might not just bawl he might lock him somewhere.

To be honest, Qiong Xing was still a little confused himself.

Of course, he had never thoughtshe’d become anyone’s mate.

Even so, he couldn’t bring himself to reject the man who was crying and begging him not to hate him.

It was true.

He wasn’t like Joa, or Leander, and of course, not like Elias either.

Seeing him cry and plead for his love made his hand reach out on its own.

Even when he held his hands, he continued crying like a foolish child.

Perhaps he didn’t know how to love or how to show his feelings properly.

Even so, he couldn’t refuse the feelings he had shared with him.

He wasn’t sure if he could love him, but he wanted to make him happy.

He didn’t know if this was truly the right thing, but if it made the crybaby in front of his smile from his heart even a little, it would be worth it.

"By the way, I never asked your name. Your brother calls you Iseul, right?"

"...Actually, it’s Iseulnura. My brother is Raonaka."

"That’s a very noble-sounding name. Can I call you Iseul?"

"No. I want a name just for you."

A special name... Is... that even possible?*l

"How about Seul or Nura?"

"Nura is fine."

It was simple, but he accepted it, so that was enough.

"Then, Nura, my name is Qiong Xing. Make sure you remember it."

"I remember! Qiong Xing, Qiong Xing!"

He was a little loud, but he seemed happy, so he let it slide.

"Just so you know, besides you, I already have three mates. It might be hard to get along... but try to be peaceful. I don’t want to lose anyone important to me."

"I understand~"

Could he really trust that? Probably not, but at least he wouldn’t intentionally upset his mood.

"There are two children. This one seems fine, but the child we met before... didn’t like you at all. So be careful."

It was strange that Lian wasn’t crying.

Who did she take after? Oh, right... probably him.

"That one is a demon, right? Is he a slave?"

"No. He used to be, but now he’s my child. If you do anything that makes him unhappy... You understand, right?"

"Yes."

Good answer.

...

"No way!"

"I’m against it too!"

As expected, when Elias and the others rushed over and he explained the situation, they opposed it.

"But... I already said it’s fine..."

He said it was too late to refuse now, but they kept insisting "No!" over and over.

Considering everything he had done, it was understandable, but maybe afraid of being abandoned, Iseul keep clung tightly to Qiong Xing and wouldn’t let him go.

"Get off from Qiong Xing!"

"No!"

"I said let him go!"

"No, nooo!"

Ah, it was so noisy...

"Are you really sure about this?"

"Huh? About what?"

Joa who had been leaning silently against the wall finally spoke.

He wasn’t joining the commotion with Leander and Leander, nor was he forcefully objecting.

"Are you really okay with him? I can’t say much myself, since I was made a mate while Elias and Leander were already around, but didn’t he hate you before?"

Hearing that he had been hated made Iseul’s shoulders shake, but Qiong Xing patted him reassuringly.

"Honestly, he didn’t have good feelings at first. Cari was scared of him too. But he cries saying ’I don’t want anyone else, only you!’ it’s make him look stupid, but adorable, right?"

Iseul’s previous attitude hadn’t been commendable, but in the end, he was just a small child seeking love.

He had taken extreme measures to avoid losing him, though such forceful methods wouldn’t have been enough to make him a mate so easily.

"Stupid, huh..."

Joa was exasperated, thinking, He just became a partner, and he’s calling him stupid?

But Iseul didn’t seem to care.
