Aiden suddenly pushed Lily away and stuck out his tongue to check. However, other than the tip of his tongue, which was slightly red, there were no other wounds.

Lily asked aggrievedly, “What’s wrong, Aiden? Don’t you like to kiss me?”

“No, no, no. It’s just that just now…” Aiden hastily waved his hand.

Scratching his head, he explained the reason for his actions. However, as he spoke, he did not notice that Lily looked as if she had expected it. Then, her eyes suddenly burst with a shocking color. It was an extremely excited emotion. She looked at him with a burning gaze, as if she had seen a treasure.

By the time he looked up, Lily had returned to normal. She pursed her lips and smiled sweetly. She came forward and held his arm. She said shyly, “It’s my first time kissing you. I accidentally bit you. I’m sorry.”

“Did you bite me?” Aiden was a little confused. It didn’t feel like a bite at that moment. It felt more like a sharp object had pricked him, but he didn’t question it. After all, the goddess had admitted it herself, so there was no need for him to harp on the question.

“Then, do you want to try again?” Lily lowered her head, her beautiful face blushing.

“Yes!”

Aiden immediately nodded and threw the doubts in his mind aside. He originally felt a little regretful that the first kiss with the goddess ended so quickly before he could properly experience it. He did not expect the goddess to give him a second chance, so he naturally had to seize it.

“Come with me.” Lily’s head drooped even lower, her voice a mosquito buzz as she turned and headed back toward the copse of trees in the park.

Aiden quickly got up and followed. His heart filled with excitement. Looking at Lily’s graceful figure in front of him and thinking about what might happen next, his body subconsciously reacted.

The two of them quickly arrived in the depths of the forest. The surroundings were very quiet, with only the occasional chirping of birds echoing in the forest.

Checking out his surroundings, Aiden grew even more excited. He was certain that something was going to happen between him and the goddess today, and he couldn’t help but quicken his pace.

“Let’s do it here.”

Just as he was letting his imagination run wild, Lily, who was walking in front of him, suddenly stopped in her tracks. Then, she turned and threw herself into his arms. Caught off guard, Aiden staggered and fell to the ground. Fortunately, the ground was covered in fallen leaves and he was not injured.

“Lily…” Aiden was about to speak when Lily’s delicate mouth covered his and her tongue slipped into his mouth.

Since the goddess had taken the initiative, Aiden naturally did not have stage fright. He turned over and pressed Lily under him. Their rapid breathing echoed in the forest.

Huff… huff…

Aiden couldn’t hold himself back anymore. He carelessly took off Lily’s bra and was about to make his next move when he felt the familiar pain on the tip of his tongue again. And it was even stronger than before.

“Bit me again…” Aiden smiled and wanted to back away, but Lily suddenly held his head and tightened her arms, as if wanting to integrate him into her body. Her breathing was heavy, and she did not look like a human. Instead, she was like a wild beast, growling in the depths of her throat.

“Ha… ha…”

Aiden sensed that something was wrong. The pain from the tip of his tongue made him lose his gentlemanly demeanor. He struggled with all his might and pushed Lily away with both hands. With a tearing pain, he finally pushed Lily away. The price he paid was a gash on the tip of his tongue, and blood stained his entire mouth.

“Are you crazy?!”

Aiden stood up and glared at Lily in front of him. He questioned her loudly. His voice sounded a little slurred because of his injured tongue.

“Hehehe…” Lily laid on the ground and laughed hysterically. Her mouth was full of blood, making her look hideous and terrifying.

“Aiden, do you know how much I’ve longed for this day to come?” Lily smiled and slowly got up. She stared at Aiden with passion and madness in her eyes, as if she was staring at a plate of delicious prey. From time to time, a sharp thorn-like object would come out of her mouth and lick her lips like a tongue.

“I didn’t expect my new partner to be an Awakened. My luck is really good…” Lily muttered to herself. Aiden could not understand a word she was saying, but his instincts told him that the girl in front of him was no longer the quiet and beautiful girl he remembered.

Run!

The tip of his tongue felt a sharp pain. At this moment, there was only one thought in Aiden’s mind, and that was to escape. Regardless of whether what he saw was a nightmare or an environment, he only wanted to escape as quickly as possible.

However, just as he turned around and ran two steps, his feet were entangled by something like a rope. He lost his balance and fell to the ground. Then, he was dragged back.

Aiden turned around with difficulty. When he saw what entangled his feet, his pupils constricted.

It was a gray tentacle, and its owner was his goddess, Lily.

“Aiden, Aiden!”

The girl let out a terrifying roar as if she had gone mad. Not only that, Aiden was horrified to see Lily’s jade-like face slowly cracking open, revealing the blood-colored flesh. The surface of the flesh was covered in a layer of scales, looking extremely strange.

As the skin on her face completely fell off, her originally gorgeous face disappeared and was replaced by a strange monster face covered in scales. Under the sunlight, the scales reflected a sinister luster.

“You, you’re not Lily…” Aiden trembled as he looked at the scene in front of him. At this moment, his heart was completely filled with fear. The beauty in front of him had suddenly turned into a terrifying monster. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed it.

“Hehe, of course, I’m your Lily, Aiden.” The monster grinned hideously. Its fair arms had turned into greenish-gray tentacles covered in disgusting sticky liquid. They were like the feet of an octopus, wrapped around Aiden and tightening.

Creak…

A huge pressure filled his entire body. At this moment, Aiden felt it difficult to breathe. All the blood in his body seemed to rush to his head, and his vision became blurred.

Not only that, but many tentacles of different thicknesses extended from the two tentacles and drilled into his mouth, nostrils, ear canals, and even the corners of his eyes. What was even more terrifying was that some even smaller tentacles actually drilled into his pores and sucked his blood like leeches.

“The blood of the Awakened. Ah, what a wonderful taste!” Lily moaned from the monster’s mouth, her tone filled with intoxication. Like someone who has been walking in the desert for a long time and suddenly drinking sweet spring water. The tentacles contracted forcefully as if trying to squeeze out all the blood in Aiden’s body.

“Aiden, you’re a gift from the heavens. Stop struggling and become one with me…”
