The Villainess Wants To Go Home novel Chapter 30

Artemis tightens her grip on Homura. Her heart jumped to her throat blocking the airway to her lungs, her knees were betraying her, and her sweat run cold.

The noises of the people echoed in her ears weakening her spirit. 'I'm such a fool' she thought.

'I thought I can overcome my fears, but I can't. I can't do it without you Daisuke' tears started to fall down her cheeks and onto the confused fox's snout.

"What's up with you human?" Homura in irritation.

"I can't do it" she mumbled under her shaking breath, hugging Homura more firmly in her arms. Her fearful eyes stared into the town not far from where they were.

"Do what? You humans are so complicated." He huffed. "Act tough in front of others but to cower away when things get complicated"

Artemis wasn't listening to the fox in her arms instead she was trembling in fear, it felt she was dying all over again, the same aching pain in her chest, the tensed muscles, and the trouble of breathing.

No matter how many times she wanted to walk into the town and conquer the fear that held her back for years.

She wanted to turn the other ay and run, run back to the awful mansion, and stay there forever and to never come out even if it meant dealing with the sadistic family that resided in that mansion.

"I'm sorry brother I can't do it." She cried quietly, looking down at the baffled fox who was getting frustrated with the tears that soaked his little nose.

*'Brother?*' the fox titled his head in thought. 'What is she so afraid of?'

"I really want to but-" Artemis took a step back her eyes didn't leave the lively town.

"Hey! I thought we were going to land of humans" the fox looked up the shaking human whose icy blue eyes hadn't left the village once since they arrived.
