Chapter 11
This is not good. Why is my heart beating so fast every time she comes near me or every time our eyes met? This is one of the signs of falling in love and I need to stop this while it’s early because if I didn’t, my love will go deeper.
It’s forbidden to love a mortal if you came from a different world because one of them should sacrifice their lives in that world and if they did, his or her memories and name will be erased in that world as if she or he didn’t exist and it’s not good.
What should I do? This is the only woman who can lift my curse but how can I continue my goal and solve the problems that are connected to my world if I avoid her? How can I stop this feeling?
Damn heart! This is not fucking good. I’ll be shit if I continue this. I know that she cherishes her life here and I don’t want to ruin it once I admit my love for her once I admit my feelings for her if the curse lifts.
I also cherish my life in our world since I’m also royalty. I still don’t know if she will accept me if she knew that I’m a werewolf and have abilities. Maybe, she’ll freak out? This world doesn’t have that kind of living. Powers, vampires, werewolves, fairies, and all because they are just normal mortals.
Why us? We have different abilities and powers and we might harm them if we continue being with them and this is what we’re trying to avoid as much as possible. Why would I fall in love with a mortal, not in werewolf or other creatures?
“Come on, Tofu!” she called my attention so I take a glance at her but when I saw her smile again, weird feelings suddenly appear. Damn! Do I love this mortal?
For the past few days, it became peaceful but I know, it’s just temporary. They’re just waiting for the right time before they attack me or they attack us and I need to be ready and create a way how to lift the curse but how?
“Roll over,” she commanded and motioned her hand but I didn’t do it. She’s currently trying to train me how to do some tricks but I have no energy to do it. It’s so easy but I don’t have time to do that because I need to play dumb here.
Once she figures out that I’m not just a simple dog, I know, she’ll get scared and can’t help but wonder and I don’t like that. As much as possible, I need to protect my identity. I still can protect her even if I’m just a dog but when it comes to witches and demons, I know, my human would be better because we are also trained to fight vampires and other creatures.
“Tofu, I’ll give you a treat if you follow me,” she said but I don’t want to. I’m tempted to do it okay? But I’m trying to control myself since it will be dangerous. I need to play dumb. Just concentrate on that, Lyall. You can do it.
“Zari, how come you have a dog?” someone asked so I turn my back to look for that mortal who speak and when I saw it was a man, I suddenly felt that I need to break his neck but since just a mere dog, I just glared at him and growled.
“Yeah, this is Tofu. Isn’t he handsome?” she chuckled. Damn that cute chuckle, woman! It’s like a piece of music in my ears but I need to shrug that first and focus on this mortal in front of me who’s looking at my woman with full of adoration in his eyes!
“Fuck! I want to pull out that eyes of you, man. Don’t you ever lay your fingers to this wo-” but before what I’m saying in my mind, I saw him touch her hand.
What the hell, man?! She’s fucking mine- wait, what? Why did I own this woman? The hell! I should stop being like this. This isn’t fucking good. This is so toxic. I’m being immature now just because of her.
What the heck did you cast on me, woman?
“He has beautiful fur just like the snow, Zari.” Well, I am, man. I’m also more handsome than you, right? But why aren’t you praising my handsome face, mortal?
“He is. I would love to name him snow but since snow is too common, I decided to name him tofu,” she explain. At first, tofu is a weird name but later on, I learn how to love it, especially that this woman name that to me. Rather than ranting, I just accept it.
“Right. By the way, how are you?” he asked.
“Man, she’s perfectly fine since I’m here,” I wanted to tell that but every time I try to talk, it’s just a normal bark of a dog. What the fuck? If only I were in my human form then I would gladly become possessive.
“I’m good. How about you? It’s been months since we saw each other,” she said while smiling at him. Okay, woman. Stop being beautiful in his eyes. I’m now getting jealous here. You should train me some tricks, right? Then what are you doing? Having chitchat to that man? How about me?
I howled and walk away to them. Since they didn’t take a glance at me, I should excuse myself since I’ll just make myself jealous. It's embarrassing for them. Fine! I’ll give you time to enjoy each other’s company. Don’t mind me here since I’m enjoying my own free time here, looking at the people who are having time with their friends, families, and pets.
We’re currently here at the park that is supposed to be our bonding but when a mere mortal suddenly appeared and took her attention, I guess this is what solo flight means. Bullshit!
