#Chapter57LEWISI just looked away for a second and my mate was already stolen.I looked at the flower shop and sighed. The moment she appeared; Lia was already enthusiastically taken by her co-workers. Although she looked surprised, Lia’s eyes were gentle as she looked at the two women and that young teenage boy who grabbed her.With my aura, I could feel them inside the shop. And when I heard their conversation and Lia’s pretend exasperated voice, a smile appeared on my lips.‘She really loves this place,’ I thought as my eyes roamed at the crowded area.‘I will spare no effort in protecting it.’ A cold glint appeared in my eyes as I felt the unusual movements all around the town. ‘It seems like they long penetrated this area,’ I thought to myself. ‘These runts… they are really prepared.’Lia and I did not hide our presence when we arrived in town. However, although I could feel their stares every now and then, the runts did not move much and pretended we were not here.‘No…
#Chapter58LEWISThe corners of my eyes twitched upon hearing the woman’s words.‘What other girl?’ I frowned before meeting Lia’s eyes.Lia looked at me with confusion at first, until her eyes widened in an apparent realization.I opened my mouth to call her. However, Lia looked away and avoided my eyes.‘Ah?’ My lips opened in surprise.‘Lia?’ I tried sending her a mind-link. To my surprise, however, her mind was closed off and I could not even send her a request.I blinked in surprise. 'Could it be... that she's mad at me?' I thought to myself before taking a step towards her. Unfortunately, Lia was once again grabbed by her friend and brought her to the other flower stands.Lia came into everyone's view when she stepped on that elevated platform. Immediately, she had caught everyone's attention, and all were amazed by her beauty. She merely stood there, but her presence was enough to keep everyone silent.‘Like a true goddess that she is,’ I thought. And I stood there, si
#Chapter59ADELIAI was only Lewis' pretend mate, and I was completely aware that our relationship was based on an agreement. Although he marked me, we were never truly mated to each other. That was the thought that instantly came into my mind when I saw that Lewis was over at the flower stands of the Flower Hall. And when I realized that he was standing near the pretty human model, I felt an ache inside my heart. Subconsciously, I ignored his eyes and pretended to focus on something else.'He never got close to anyone and ignored everyone else before... why is he near them and talking to them?' I thought with a frown. 'What is this... why am I feeling hurt?''No. I shouldn't be like this. If Lewis finds someone he likes... it's only natural for me to support him with my whole heart,' I tried to convince myself. When Maria asked me to introduce the flowers, I went ahead and started talking about the red roses.Red roses are a symbol of love. In the past, I wasn't too fond of
#Chapter60ADELIA‘A kiss, he said.’I looked at Lewis’ mischievous yet serious eyes and I felt myself melting, until I could not take it any longer and I hurriedly looked away. Inside my chest, my heart beat crazily fast.‘How could he talk like that...’ I felt my face burning. ‘Lewis is really a man of talent... but I never expected... that one of his talents is flirting...’The crowd turned silent upon hearing him. However, after a few seconds, they started whistling and teasing us.“Oh, wow! He straight on asked for a kiss!”“Girl, you are lucky!” The humans excitedly shouted.Lewis, on the other hand, stayed calm and quiet as he patiently held the bouquet of red roses for me. I blinked thrice on the bouquet, until I helplessly sighed and reached out for it with a small smile.“Thank you,” I softly told him.Lewis was quiet for a few seconds before he said, “Do you understand why I gave you these flowers?”‘I just explained to the crowd that a bouquet of red roses mean
#Chapter61LEWIS‘So clueless,’ I thought as I stared at Lia who closed her eyes and offered her cheeks to me.‘So adorably clueless,’ I could not help but repeat.‘I am about to go crazy from wanting you. And yet, you have no clue about it.’ My eyes slightly darkened.‘If that’s the case, I will just go ahead, and directly show you what I really feel.’Decided, I held her chin with my fingers and turned her face towards mine before my eyes focused on her mouth.Her lips were so pink and plump. I wanted to pounce on her and devour her right then and there. …to be able to feel her lips on mine, and to taste the sweetness of her mouth. My eyes turned even darker from desire.And with just leaning for another inch, our lips would finally touch.However, I took a deep breath and forcefully tried to control myself.‘My desires are merely secondary. I need to see how she thinks about this first,’ although my body was about to go crazy, my mind was still able to think rationally.‘
#Chapter62LEWIS"He is my husband!"Lia shouted with indignation. Her chest rising and falling as she took deep breaths, and her whole face was flushed with slight irritation and embarrassment. It was clear that she was in a hurry to clarify our relationship and was slightly mad that her friend accused her of making out with a stranger. My eyes widened upon hearing her, before they turned gentle as I looked at her. Lia looked at her friend 'fiercely' after proudly saying that I am her husband. She looked like a small white rabbit trying to look ferocious.'Ah.' I covered my forehead with a hand. '...so freaking adorable,' I thought. Smitten... I was totally smitten. For werewolves, marking is the sign of being married. Since I marked her, I was already her husband for all intent and purpose. And hearing it coming from her mouth made me incredibly happy.Thus, without wasting any moment, I hurriedly confirmed her statement."That's right. I am her husband," I clearly st
#Chapter63LEWIS I looked at Lia who did not know how to react and helplessly sighed.‘It’s okay. Little by little, I will make you get used to it,’ I thought before giving her back a gentle pat."Really? Is that true? How did Adel react?" Her friend asked with interest."She only blushed and did not believe that I was really confessing," I softly added as I watched Lia once again drink her tea. Suddenly, she choked on her tea once again. I bit my lower lip to prevent myself from smiling while reaching up for her once again.However, this time, I lifted her up and put her on my lap.Lia’s friends – Maria, the loud lady, Jackie, the crazy lady, Harry, the teenager, and that scrawny boss immediately had their eyes turned wide upon my action.The difference was that the first two started sniggering and giving Lia a teasing look, while the scrawny boss sent me a depressed look. The teenager, however, looked at me as if I was his idol. Lia was embarrassed to be sitting on my lap
#Chapter64ADELIAA bad feeling emerged in my heart. It was a feeling that told me something terrible was about to happen.I looked at Lewis who likewise turned serious and I knew that something was definitely up.And when Lewis confirmed my suspicions, I felt a heavy feeling pressing on my shoulders.‘Lia, I think it has started early,’ Lewis told me and I immediately paled.Lewis stared at me deeply before leaning down and placing a soft kiss on my lips. Instantly, my heart raced.‘That’s right. Everything will be alright,’ I thought before giving Lewis a deep look.'My new vision has not changed. With Lewis, everything will be alright,' I thought before giving our brave savior a smile. "Ah, that's right," I exclaimed before hurriedly reaching for my bag and taking out a piece of paper from it. The piece of paper was something that I prepared for my friends. After all, war would start, and accidents were inevitable. Thus, I wrote a series of instructions for Maria and oth
