Office Romance with a Werewolf - Chapter 141

While she was sitting in a yoga pose on her bed, Nida said to herself.

“I need to be clear about my own feelings so that I won’t hurt others!”

It was the night that Nida went home after being chased by the vampires.

Talking to the twin made her realize that their unclear feelings and relationship were slowly hurting them.

Inhale

Exhale

She meditates while thinking more deeply.

She hated them.

She was scared of them.

But

She also cares for them.

She also loved them.

That was her feelings toward Ranz and Randell before, but what are her feelings for them now?

She was thinking whether her views of the frightening alpha werewolf turned weak werewolf were unchangeable.

Does she forgive them already?

Have her scars already healed?

Does her trauma still creep into her sleep?

“No.” She opened her eyes and spoke at the same time, as if she had had a eureka moment.

She touches her chest with both hands and breathes deeply again.

“I am living well with them and don’t feel any fear anymore! Is this because they are weak? No! No! I am actually happy staying with them, especially with Ranz!”

Nida’s eyes sparkled as she could hear the hard thumping of her chest.

“Am I free to love him again? Won’t we be in more trouble if I do?”

Nida feels greedy.

She actually missed being loved and wanted to know if she could be happy with the two.

“But what will I do to Randell?”

After clearing her thoughts, questions keep popping out one after the other.

Nida thought of Randell, who had declared his affection for her as well.

She touched her chest again and internalized the answer.

“I don’t love him though. I mean, even before, did I really love him?”

The person that made Nida fall in love was Ranz, and Randell was just a proxy.

She only thought that Randell was the one she loved because of Randell’s name and body.

Actually, after Randell and Ranz gained their own bodies, Nida didn’t even look affectionately at Randell. That made Nida certain that Randell was not in her heart.

“Haa, I need to make this clear to Randell so he doesn’t hope and hurt his feelings any longer.” Nida was determined to clear things up with Randell so that he could move on to find a suitable lady for him.

Nida lay on her bed and was about to sleep because using her brain is exhausting. She was about to enter dreamland when she sat up once again.

“Wait!! Does this mean I want to date Ranz again?”

Nida stared into space for a moment, then grabbed her hair.

“Am I allowed to do that?”

She then hit her head on her pillow.

“Am I?”

Nida stared into space for an hour while repeatedly repeating the same question in her head.

Randell’s issue was an easy thing for Nida to solve, but why does her heart waver when she thinks about Ranz?

“No. no. no.” Nida shook her head again. “It’s clear that I still like him.”

Nida clenched her fist and prayed for the first time in a long time.

She should be clasping her hand, but she chose to tightly clench her fist as if she’s threatening rather than praying, but it is her first sincere prayer after such a long time of being unfaithful to the gods.

“Please, supreme god that rules all the living, let us be happy together again. I don’t care if enemies try to harm us again, but I hope me and Ranz won’t hurt each other again.”

She closed her eyes while praying, not noticing that the dust appeared and swirled around her with her first prayer. The silver durst turned into gold and later evaporated into the air, which made Nida not see them after she reopened her eyes.

With a lighter heart after praying, she looked up and smiled. “Please grant my wish at least once.”

..

..

..

in the morning, at Nida’s apartment.

“I’ll sit in your lap.” Nida nonchalantly suggested that making Ranz and Randell stop their bickering.

“Are you making fun of my feelings?” Ranz was offended, thinking Nida was making light of how he felt, even joking about it.

While Randell also spoke out, upset, “You’re making my heart break.” Randell pouted, while feeling jealous of the special treatment Ranz had received.

“What are you both talking about? Is it obvious that I am flirting? If you don’t want it, then don’t.” Nida went back to her seat and pouted as well. After spending the night thinking and making herself clear about her feelings, she decided to get closer to Ranz and make sure to make Randell stop liking her.

“And Randell, don’t get hurt. There’s a lady meant for you.” Nida sincerely looked straight at Randell’s face.

“Oh my! I am getting dumped again!” Randell stomped his feet to avoid Nida’s gaze, and he awkwardly sat down. He wanted to cry from being rejected, but was at least thankful that Nida was being honest with him. He just pitied himself for not even having the slightest chance to steal Nida from Ranz.

“So are you going to eat while standing?” Nida asked Ranz, who became frozen after hearing Nida was flirting with him. The word actually keeps repeating inside Ranz’s head.

“No.” Ranz answered dryly while looking straight at Nida. He then walked closer to Nida and lifted her up effortlessly. He then sat down on the chair Nida was sitting on and silently let Nida sit on his lap. He then leans his face against Nida’s hair to hide his face from burning red.

“Oh my goodness! You can now lift me up! Great improvement!” Nida happily commented while tapping Ranz’s hand that was holding her waist.

“I want to throw up.” Randell made a comment while making a sour face, which made Nida find it funny.

“Haha! Don’t be like that, Randell! How about you hurry and go to college so you can flirt with girls?”

“That’s not my goal though.” Randell rolled his eyes because Nida kept saying mean things to him.

“You will find someone better.” Nida said it again, and that made Randell upset even more. He badly wanted to walk away and leave them alone, but he couldn’t because it was useless because he would see them when he went home later. Additionally, they were using one car to get to work.

“Whatever. Eat already. We will be late.” Randell started to eat, forcing himself to down the food.

Nida is feeling bad for Randell, but she needs to be clear as much as possible to make Randell not miss what is really best for him.

Nida watched Randell eat for a moment, then she tapped Ranz again. He was taking his time to calm his heart, but Nida has no mercy and won’t let Ranz’s heart recover.

“What?” Ranz asked, then looked down at Nida, who was looking up at him.

“Aaah,” Nida teasingly opened her mouth, then said, “feed me.”

Ranz’s heart beat like a drum and his face was about to explode. “F-feed you?”

Randell rolled his eyes again while Robert finished his meal and waited for the three to notice him again.

….

….

….

“Why did you call me?” Randell asked Wendell.

Wendell is puffing on another cigarette and taking his time speaking with Randell, despite the fact that he was the one who summoned him to his office.

Randell tilted his head while observing Wendell.

“You don’t look playful anymore? Having a hard time living?” Randell bluntly asked as he noticed that he didn’t see the usual mischievous energy of Wendell anymore. It was more like Wendell was looking very stressed and exhausted.

“Are you acting concerned now? Ranz’s little brother?” Wendell replied, then he walked closer to Randell.

“Did you call me to mock me?” Randell narrowed his gaze toward Wendell, and the atmosphere at the office became tense, but the staring competition ended easily after Wendell broke the intense staring by heaving a deep, long sigh.

“I call you because I need the priestess regarding the goddess she’s talking about. The dark priest told me he was going to stop giving his protection soon, so…”

“Sir Daniel? Why?” Randell feels strange that a usually generous priest is reluctant to help them. He also rarely sees him, unlike before, when Daniel usually appeared whenever Nida was in trouble.

“Did something happen to the dark priest?” Randell asked nervously. Although he doesn’t entirely like the pack, he still doesn’t want the pack to completely grumble down.

The pack that Wendell is leading is nearing disbandment as the members are leaving to join another pack from the neighboring city. Wendell doesn’t worry about losing power, but he is worried about the wolves who chose to join another pack. Wendell is sure that those wolves will start from the bottom and will be picked on by the wolves, but then again, these members chose to leave rather than stay in a pack where their lives would be in danger because of lack of a guardian. Wendell can’t blame the wolves’ decision, but he was very disappointed to realize the weak loyalty of his own pack members. He feels like it was his fault, like it was due to his incompetence.

“I don’t know about the priest. But Randell, please help save the pack.. Please save the family. “
