Chapter 25
"What's with the kiss?" I asked irritably.
That's when his tender smile disappeared as he released my waist.
"I'm just reminding you of rule no. 7 in our contract. Dating is Forbidden." He said firmly before turning his back on me.
Saint left the passenger seat of his car open before he turned around to get there.
I just sighed again.
Why do I still hope to hear a sensible answer from him?
With that, I could do nothing but ride and get the seatbelt. But with the speed of Saint's running, it looks like even if I'm wearing a seatbelt I will be thrown out.
The white prince was unaware that the princess secretly loved him. But that ended when the white prince took the princess' life.
"Wait, are you mad?" I asked with a frown.
<Chapter 26So instead of answering his question, I chose to get out of his car. It was nice that we stopped not far from the convenient store. There I went to bring instant noodles that I already put hot water on and I also bought ice cream. Then I decided to go back to where I found Saint standing outside the car. His face is still awful but I think it's worsened by now."I asked earlier and then you left—" I did not finish what he was going to say and quickly handed over him the ice cream I brought which seemed to surprise him. There I smiled at him."Hunger is the call of how you feel.""Are you kidding me, human—" I did not finish him again. I took a deep breath before speaking."You're hungry so you're hot-headed, so are humans. When they're hungry, they're hot-headed." I explain slowly. Though I feel like he didn't believe me.
Chapter 27It was a long trip because Aldus' house was a bit far from the Academy. I know where that is because they once invited me there to attend a party where they just embarrassed me. I will never forget that as I will never forget his house."So, this body always bullies you?" Saint asked the reason why I immediately stepped on the brakes that made the car to stop."What the hell! Stop reading my mind! Can you?" I was irritated."I can't, that can't be stopped." I just got irritated because of that and decided to keep quiet and just drive. I let him eat a meal while we travelled. I no longer plan to talk to him or even think of nonsense because I know the grim reaper has nothing else to say but to irritate the hell out of me. However, it seems that I was born unlucky. I was shocked to see someone suddenly cross the middle of the dark and quiet road our car was passing. Because tha
Chapter 28"So, what was that?" I asked him immediately after we got out of the car. It was 9 pm when we reached Albus' house. As expected it was a huge house near the beach. I tried to hold back the annoyance as I followed the angry grim reaper. I also couldn't help but look back at the vehicle as long as he parked in front of me without even entering the gate.However, I could not help but wonder. Wondering why there seems to be no human in Albus' house. Albus parent was not here even their guard and maid who used to greet the guests before.But I know this is not the right time to think about it. All I had to do was just to follow Saint.But as soon as I entered the mansion, I was almost immediately taken back by the sight of Saint leaving Albus' body. I immediately covered my mouth and nose when I smell the stench of Albus' decaying body. I could not help but wince. Fortunately, Saint immediately co
Chapter 29"Are you crazy! I will not call you that, you're not my boyfriend!""Then I'll be your boyfriend." That's when I laughed a lot.Is he drunk? Did he get drunk from drinking Jack Daniel earlier?"Are you drunk?"He chuckled before answering. "A little." This time I messed up my hair. I stared at Saint but his face was not joking. He seems serious about what he is saying."May I remind you about the contract, dating is forbidden." I can assure you that I am no longer happy with the way we talked. In what he is doing I will just hope. "Is being your boyfriend means we are dating?" He asked curiously. I took a deep breath because of that. My patience with him is exhausted. Really exhausted."Yes!" I couldn't help but scream. I know he's just annoying me. I know very well that he knows what I am thinking and even how I feel do him. Ho
Chapter 30When I opened my eyes, Saint's face immediately appeared in front of me. I was not surprised by that, however, I just realized that he did not sleep. If so, what did he do all night? Staring at me?"Yup, I was staring at you the whole night." He said before kissing my forehead which surprised me. It didn't end there because Saint hugged me tightly and buried his head between my neck. I almost caught my breath at what he was doing. Something that gives a strange creep at the same time leisure to my chest.I took a deep breath and just hugged him back before closing my eyes again."I don't know why I want to hug and kiss you. I'm not like this with succubi, that I fucked before." I immediately distanced from Saint because of what he said."Are you for real? You're comparing me to the— gosh! Seriously Saint." I sat down at that moment but Saint didn't even bother. Instead, he hug
Chapter 31When I woke up again I smelled a delicious aroma. Smiling, I sat on the bed consciously alone. I couldn't help but smile as I remembered what had happened. Saint was gentle, sweet and caring when we did it. I smiled to myself before choosing to get up and take a bath. I dressed in Albus' white long sleeve, up to the thighs so it was okay. After combing, I decided to go down only to discover Saint preparing our dinner.It was 6 pm, I was very tired, so the night reached my rest. When Saint turned to me, he immediately smiled before approaching me and asked me to sit down and eat."I made your omelette. Don't worry that taste good. I search for it." I just nodded as I watched the table which was a bit chaotic. There is also a tablet that I never thought he could use. A video on how to make easy but delicious food plays there.Damn Mary, he's making an effort. For the love of Go
Chapter 32I caught my breath as I awoke from the strange nightmare. A nightmare that when I woke up I could even not remember. All I can recall are wings and eyes. Something that is not frightening at all but it terrifies me. However, when I tried to turn to Saint who was just next to me before I went to slumber, but now he not there.I took a deep breath and looked around. That's when I realized he was really gone.I just bit my lip and slightly pressed both of my knees together. I try to expunge the dream out of my mind but it really won't go away. Until now, I am still terrified. Nonetheless, I strive to calm down and remind myself that it was just a dream.Just a bad dream."So, you are the guardian of soul they say?" I quickly turned to the speaker. There, I saw a little girl wearing her white robe with her hands clasped behind her back. She was still slightly jumpin
Chapter 33"Have you eaten?" I know that is a very strange question because I am sure that souls like them do not eat. Still, I asked that out of a lot of thought.I was no longer surprised by Alyssa's sudden laughter. "I do not eat Guardian of Soul. I do not feel hungry." I just nodded at her answer before sighing.There is a way for me to know what is the use of being the guardian of soul. I am sure it will take me to the truth. Truth, I should already know."How long have you been wandering around Alyssa?" I do not know how, but when I asked her that she suddenly seemed to illumine, literally. Allyssa did not notice that because the child was busy jumping again on the bed.So, this is the effect of my simple questioning of souls like her."It's been almost two months," she replied. "I really want to go back, but I don't know how to come back. I miss mom—" she stopped s
