Alice, The White Werewolf novel Chapter 10

"Sorry, Alice! "It seems that you are dreaming," replied Mate.

"What? No way! If I dream, Why is everything so real? Look at this, mate! I had a cut on my leg, and it still hurts today! And also...,"

I stopped what I was saying. I remembered how, in that dark atmosphere, Mate kissed me and also played with his tongue. Imagining it, I couldn't say it, I was ashamed.

"And also what?" asked Mate.

"And also... hmm... why did Shanun say you weren't at home?" She also said, "If you're having an event with your family, is that true?" Ask me to try to turn away what I really want to say.

"Yes, what Shanun said is true. So I couldn't stay long because I had to go back into the house.

"What? But you're all home? "Hmm, I mean, you and your family?"

"Sorry, Alice! "I can't stay here long because I have to go back!" said Mate, who then rushed to enter the house.

"Mate? Wait! I'm not done talking! Awww....!"

When I got up while calling Mate, a large tree that had previously stood firmly suddenly collapsed and almost hit me.

Yeah, just almost, because Mate was quick to help me.

"Alice!" Mate yelled while running and held the tree with all his might.

I saw Mate's sweat splashing against the trunk of a tree so big that it almost hit my head. Finally, I helped Mate by releasing the energy I had. However, when I moved my hand forward, in no more than five minutes, I felt so exhausted.

"No way! Why is my power so limited? "Whereas before I could hold the weight of the same thing as this!" I'm here to help, Mate.

However, apparently I was overconfident. I forced my body to expend energy in light of the fact that there were only how many percent left? Until finally, Mate groaned with all his might and managed to knock the tree away from my body.

"Mate? "Are you okay?" I approached Mate with a staggering body and breathless breathing.

"Are you okay?" Mate again asked and did not answer my question.

"Me? I'm so fine, mate! "I'm worried about you!" I said.

Mate fell silent, looking at my face, but that gaze didn't last long. Mate hurried to wink as if remembering something.

"Sorry, Alice! I'm fine. Don't pay too much attention to me! Go home! "Aren't you okay too?"

"Why is my strength decreasing?" I asked, ignoring Mate's words.

"What?"

"Why am I not like I used to be?" Is my power gone?" I asked while looking at both palms.

Mate walked back toward me. He looked at me with a look that made me feel like there was something Mate was hiding from me.

"Alice, I'm sorry!" said Mate all of a sudden while holding both my hands.

"Wait! Why are you apologizing to me, mate? You're not wrong! I was wrong! I've always had a hard time with you, even now. I'm really sorry.

"No, Alice! "About the thing you said the dream was, it's true that it wasn't a dream, but it did happen," said Mate in a slow but sure voice.

"What? But why are you lying to me? Haaazzz...! Mate? "What exactly happened?"

not yet answered my question, Mate suddenly kissed my lips with his soft lips.

"Feel this? This kiss? the softness of these lips? "It's the same as what happened," I said in my head.

"Got it!" replied to Mate, who then left me alone.

I don't know what Mate is really hiding from me. And I also feel like there's something weird about Mate. Why did he suddenly say that what happened was not a dream? And also, why does Mate suddenly say that he loves me when I still clearly remember when what he did was a friend's attitude? I really don't understand.

I then walked towards a mini-mate that was not far from Mate's house. At that time, I intended to buy food stock for the room, because I hadn't bought it in a long time.

I went to a store that wasn't too crowded. When I was choosing what I was going to buy, I accidentally overheard a conversation between two people who didn't know where they were.

"You know, don't you?" "Mate just got pissed off by the family," one person said.

"Oh, yeah? Why? "Isn't Mate an only child, and he is very loved by both of his parents?" replied her friend.

"Yes, indeed. Mate is so loved by both parents that Mate's life path is completely controlled by them.

"Are you serious?"

"Yes, and what I hear is that Mate rebelled when he was about to be betrothed to the woman of his choice."

"Does he have a girlfriend of his own choice?"

"Reportedly, but Mate's family did not agree with Mate's choice of woman, so Mate was betrothed to another woman."

"What a pity, Mate! "I can imagine how he feels."

"I also wonder, why in this day and age there are still such arranged marriages?"

"Eh, but do you know the reason why Mate's parents didn't agree with the woman of his choice?"
