Spoiled By My Nine Beast Husbands (Emma Tibarn) novel Chapter 104

The elder looked at Damian and sighed with helpless disappointment. "You should've thought of that before."

Damian didn't reply. No sh*t!

If he'd known, he never would've done it. He'd made his own mess—now he had to live with it.

…

At the Starrail Hub, Edric walked back after buying the tickets, looking a bit guilty. "Emma, I'm sorry. I wanted to get you a private premium cabin, but the staff said they're all full. There's only one left, and you'll have to share it with another female."

Before meeting Emma, Edric's attitude toward life had been simple—survive, nothing more. A private Starrail compartment? He'd never have thought of getting one.

Corvin rarely left his lab or his home, barely traveling beyond the Central Planet. Since he almost never took the Starrail, he didn't have a private line either.

Damian had one, of course. Edric had asked Emma if she wanted to borrow it, but she'd refused. Now that their match had been dissolved, she preferred to stay clear of any more entanglements.

Building a private Starrail now was also out of the question.

Still, Edric found himself thinking differently. Before, he never needed one. But now that Emma was in his life, he suddenly felt that he did. Once they returned from the Central Planet, he planned to have one custom-built for her. The approval process was strict and complicated, but with Silas around, Edric wasn't worried at all.

"I think the Empire's public Starrail is great," Emma said cheerfully.

Truth was, she'd always wanted to ride one. So many therians traveled through here—it looked lively and full of life. She loved crowds like this.

Her parents had died young, and she'd been raised by her grandmother, a quiet woman who barely spoke and rarely let Emma out to play for fear the village children would bully an orphan.

The only time Emma had felt truly alive was during New Year celebrations—following her grandmother around to visit people, surrounded by laughter and noise. Later, when she went to school, her favorite thing had been spending time with classmates—playing, chatting, laughing.

Even after she was transported to this world, she'd made many friends—until her secret forced her to stay cautious and distant. Only Laura had ever gotten close.

"No trouble at all. We're happy to travel with you," Corvin said at once. This is perfect! I haven't been on a Starrail with Ms. Tibarn before.

Her own skin had grown smoother and fairer after awakening her ability, and she was beautiful in her own way—but she wasn't tall, and certainly didn't have those endlessly long legs. Whenever people complimented her, they always called her cute.
