Chapter 224: Primal Fear

"What are you saying, Maha!? Why would I be anyone else's Bond, much less a human!? I am a mighty hunter of the Abulan! I am not going to—"

"This is not a discussion, Edissa."

It wasn't only Edissa who was shocked at the sudden news his father gave her. The other cenleons were also confused as to why their Chief would even utter such a disgraceful and humiliating order.

"Chief Maha, but you promised me Edissa as my bond!"

"Muran, you dare contest my words!?"

One of the male cenleons, Muran, quickly stepped forward, the largest and most muscular of them all; his limbs as he moved, contracting with each step. But of course, even with the domineering presence of Muran's physicality, Maha did not back down at all as he stomped his paw on the floor and hissed, and Muran did the same, 

"I will not accept this, Issa and I are in love!" Muran confessed as he stood beside Edissa.
