(Athena POV)
“I knew you're not ready for this. Give up already Athena? I will call Lucah." He took the phone, but I grabbed and kept it away from him. He smiled at me, a little annoyed at what I was doing. "Give it to me sweetheart."
I shook my head. Then I turned my back on him and in a flash, I threw his phone somewhere. Bye bye EL's phone. He can always buy a new one, right?
But when I looked back to face him. His eyebrows… have already met.
“I'll just buy you a new one. No need to worry boss. OK?” his stare made me sweat more than the walk I made. EL closed his eyes. When he opened it, he deeply sighed and then stared at his watch.
"We need to go home." he was reaching to grab my hand.
“That's what I want to eat. The one being sold there."
"You are not pregnant Athena to conceive." He suddenly closes his eyes; it was obvious that he was in pain. He holds his head as he
(Athena POV)"Jog, not run Athena.""It's okay. My running pace is compared with your jog, so I better just run.”"I will destroy this place once you stumble because of your stupidity." I halted myself. He scowled at me. So I just walked again.I shook my head at myself to think that he's so obsessed with the things that would cause me pain. He acts as if he's the one whose gonna get hurt, and he worries more than a father. Kinda choking, right?I suddenly hit him out of annoyance.“And what was that for?”“Stop being absurd. You are no longer funny. What you are doing is suffocating me. That's not good EL.”"I'm not trying to suffocating you Athena.""Do you even hear what you're saying?" We talked without looking at each other's faces. We just kept walking and I was trying to increase my pace because he was just too fast for me.“Because you are stubborn, I ne
(Athena POV)I didn't know what to do for a moment, then suddenly he opened up his eyes.“Women. When they get pregnant, they want to eat something in particular, right?" I nodded at him.“Pregnant women are crazier than me, EL. They have this absurd mood swings that will go on for nine months. So, if I were you, I'll start practicing.” He looked at me and smiled."You look like her… you look exactly like her." I have no idea what EL is talking about. Maybe he's also hungry that's why he starts to imagine random thoughts.“I know you're hungry too. Come on, let's continue walking." He sighed again.“Athena… you are just a human. I don't get tired easily… while you… you just had a fever last night.""Well it's gone already." I felt my forehead. “Walking outside this early in the morning is effective. Mother nature really is the best remedy. H
(Athena POV)I gasped for air as we reached the gate. EL's staff greeted us. I immediately reached for the water. I was already bathing with my own sweat. I am really thirsty."Let's go EL." He was having a conversation with his staff. He shook his head at me again. He thought I am easily to give up, but your wrong my dear. I am a strong person. Ahahaha. Not every woman is a fragile like you thought.EL brought a bottle of water with him. The final gate can be overlooked already, and after that, we are no longer in their territory.It's okay to sweat as long as it will burn the extra calories I don't need. My eating has increased since I came into EL's care. But soon, I will taste my favorite food again.When we got out. I laughed at myself… We are still far from the city. This is insane. We need a vehicle."Give up?" EL asked, seemingly to mock me.I sat on the grass. "Can you call them without u
(Athena's POV)"Why do we need to walk?" I heard El provocation.“Tsk. Stop complaining. You are not a vampire get burned under the sun. And you gotta use those feet of yours sometimes. It's more fun walking.""I see. Where will we go?""We'll be there soon." I eagerly told him because I was really hungry. I get salivated even by just thinking about the food they will serve us.“Hey! Where are we going?" He asked again as I pulled him into an alley. The car would not be able to pass through this alley because of how narrow it is.“Nothing bad will happen to you here. Quiet.” Because I can already see that we are getting stares from the people we just passed through. “And also, bow your head a bit. Don't lift your chin like a king who owns this place."When we arrived at the small restaurant. I immediately smelled the food they were serving. My stomach rumbled which made me smile. Here we are
(Athena POV)"There's been a great tragedy, Athena, and I don't think that you should be worrying too much about it."“What makes you think that? My teammates were there."“They are fine. Especially your friend." He says bitterly. I just nodded. In every word that comes out of a werewolf's mouth… I know it has integrity."Are you no longer jealous of my friend?"“No need. You are mine now. And no one can get you from me."I pouted my lips at him. My ears are sick to hear of how possessive he is to me. But my mood shifted when I smelled the food. Our order seemed to be cooked now!I was not mistaken as the couple arrived. Their kitchen helpers used to serve the food, but they made an exemption as they served it themselves. They even had their smiles on their lips."Eat well.""Of course, Aunt Ising." I guarantee you that. I will make myself full because I know it wil
(Athena POV)I was afraid that his men would follow us."What are you doing?""I don't want your men to follow us.""Eh?" he was clueless with what I have in mind. He looked completely innocent. Hahaha. He looks so cute like a kid being dragged by his playmate."Wait? Are you trying to kidnap me? You do know that I have an important meeting today, right? Are you really doing everything you can to—."He stopped talking when I put a quail egg I took from the soup inside his mouth.“It tastes better when it's eaten without the soup. Start chewing.” He just stared at me and stared to chew. Shortly after, I saw Lucah's shadow again. So, I ran while dragging EL from behind.Until I probably lost him already. I gasped for air, but I was mistaken when Lucah and his men got to us. I didn't expect when EL himself picked me up and start running away from his security.What just happe
(Athena POV)I bent down and took it again. Of course, the cat is still angry at EL's presence. I just caressed it again."That's dirty Athena." I just laughed at EL.“Are you serious? I can't believe the son of the ruthless Grand alpha is saying that. You are a werewolf for God's sake. Mingming is probably hungry now. I wonder where we can buy your food. Do you have any idea Mingming?"I looked around and saw a mini store.“Right there EL. Please buy the cat something to eat. Cats can't enter that place for sure. I promise I will not run away from you. I'll wait here." I said to him knowing what he had inside his mind.“Tss. You really can't escape me Athena. I always think of your safety."“No one will kidnap me here. Then if there is, you have a lot of ransom money. Will you please just hurry up? The cat is hungry." Hurry EL or I'll turn into a tiger.EL basical
(Athena POV)"What's the problem?" El asked me. I know he never thought I will be like this.“Nothing. I just want to eat ice cream.” Haha. I couldn't think of anything else to say because of the drama I feel today. EL has these traits as if he could not even save a child. But today, he showed me that he has a good soul inside him. I think that's normal for him because he really has the ability to save lives in such situations.I heard El gasp. “We have a problem; I don’t have a cash here Athena. No vendor will accept my card, right?” He scratched his head."That's the problem of rich people? Is it because you don't want to hold cash to avoid the germs that some people might have already touched?” I scoffed at him.“No. I just don’t bring cash.""Hmmm…" I wiped my tears. The heck with these tears, it's making me look like a fool."Let me call Lucah,
