Chapter 11: Cain
Yuanyuan hastily stood up and smiled at Su Tang. “Healer, the chief is here.”
Su Tang looked sideways at the cave entrance.
She wanted to see what a tribe chief from primeval times looked like.
She was dumbstruck.
The tiger was the chief.
The tiger sure was good-looking. His topless torso looked strong, his muscles were well-defined, and he had short, smooth silver hair. Su Tang blushed a little as she looked at him.
Su Tang veered her eyes away. To disguise her uneasiness, she took a big bite of roast meat!
Her cheeks were bulging as they moved, and she looked like a squirrel that was sneaking a snack.
Cain strode over with his long slender legs and arrived in front of the stone bed in a few steps.
His eyes could not help becoming softer when he saw Su Tang kneeling on the stone bed doing her utmost to eat.

Yuanyuan promptly betrayed Su Tang. “Chief, the healer understands our language and can communicate with us. Her name is Su Tang. Isn’t it a pretty name?”
Su Tang swallowed the meat and stared at Yuanyuan.
Was she not her friend? How could a friend betray her so easily?
Sadly, Yuanyuan did not understand what Su Tang was trying to convey. Yuanyuan merely looked back at her innocently.
“Cough, cough…”
Su Tang lost her breath and ended up choking on the meat!
Cain sat down next to Su Tang and patted her back gently as he told Yuanyuan, “Fetch some water!”
Yuanyuan nodded and ran out of the cave quickly.
When Su Tang saw Yuanyuan leaving so hastily, she could not help choking even harder!
She kept coughing until tears almost came out of her eyes before she felt better.
“Feel better?”
A deep husky voice rang overhead.
Su Tang finally realized that she had unknowingly leaned into Cain’s arms.
In an instant, her face flushed crimson!
She hurriedly left his embrace and explained as she stammered, “I… I didn’t mean it… I’m sorry…”
Cain’s lips curved upwards slightly, and his eyes looked gentle. “I’m Cain. What’s your name?”
Su Tang felt as though her face was burning. She stumbled on her words as she replied, “I am Su… Su Tang…”
Cain nodded. “Su Tang. Your name sounds lovely!”
Su Tang went quiet.
“You can call me Cain, and I’ll call you Su!”
Why did he come off sounding a little like a domineering CEO?
“Su, why did you go to the Dark Forest on your own? Where is your tribe?”
Su Tang lowered her head dejectedly and muttered, “I… I was lost. My tribe is somewhere very far away, so it’s impossible to go back now.”
A thought ran through Cain’s head when he saw how sad she was.
Since it was impossible for her to return to her tribe, then he could openly get her to stay here!
Cain reached his hand out to stroke Su Tang on top of her head as he comforted her, “From now on, Winged Tiger Tribe is your home. I will always protect you and won’t let you get lost.”
He paused before he continued, “Even if you get lost, there’s nothing to be afraid of. I will find you before you know it. I swear on the Beast God that I will definitely find you!”
A white light flashed over Cain’s head.
Su Tang was startled. “What was that?”
“It happens when you make a binding pact with the Beast God. Shouldn’t you know this already?”
Su Tang’s eyes opened wide. She did not know what to say to the chief after he said such things. If he were not as good-looking, she would have assumed he was a hooligan and beat him up!
“What happens when you break your promise?”
