Office Romance with a Werewolf - Chapter 151
“What’s wrong with her?” Nida asked Randell.
“Is she more peculiar than Nida?” Ranz inquired further.
“S-she was just worried about me. She’s harmless.” Randell responded with a sigh.
“W-what are you three whispering together?” Lady’s nerves are calmed after witnessing the three casually conversing with one another.
“Randell.”
Randell was pushed toward Lady by Nida, forcing him to explain.
“Ehem! What kind of misunderstanding are you imagining again?” Randell asked, as he could not tolerate Lady being paranoid.
“S-she was being forced into the bed! Is your brother forcing you to do bad things as well?” The lady pointed at Ranz as if he was a criminal caught in the act. “How long has he been exploiting you both? We can report him to the authorities!” Lady exclaimed something that made the three drop their jaws once again, but it was Nida who broke into laughter first.
“W-what’s funny?” Lady was confused once again.
“No. No, are you writing a novel? Do you think one of us is being abused? And Ranz! Hahaha! You have become the villain!” Nida’s frustration and bad mood melted away after hearing Lady’s ridiculous story. She never expected that Randell would find such an interesting girl to flirt with.
“Stop laughing like that! She will misunderstand you more!” Randell covered Nida’s mouth to stop her from loudly laughing.
“What is your name, miss?” Ranz stepped forward and asked the lady in a serious tone. Lady steps back because he sees Ranz as an evil predator.
“Lady! w-What do you want?” The lady responded defensively.
“We are like family here. We are not abusing anyone here. We are just having some sort of disagreement, but it’s not your business. I hope you won’t poke your nose at us like that and judge us the way you please. ” Ranz politely talked to Lady, but his expression was telling Lady to leave them off and to stop her from being nosy.
“R-ranz, scaring her away won’t fix the misunderstanding.” Randell let go of Nida and he stood in between Ranz and Lady, shielding her from Ranz.
“Who is she, by the way? What is she to you? Why is she acting like she belongs here?” Ranz asked, interrogating Randell instead. Ranz was always worried about Randell because Randell was ten years younger than his physical age. Ranz thought that Randell tends to trust anyone with ease, much like how Randell opens up to others. Ranz was able to protect Randell when they were still one, but now he could no longer filter the people who would try to approach his brother. He was worried that some people would take advantage of his brother.
Ranz’s reaction to Lady’s actions was not a good one either. Although he tried to be polite to her, Ranz could not help but hate Lady who was talking about them slanderously. Lady even dares to listen in on their conversation, which irritates Ranz even more.
Randell and Nida noticed that Ranz was annoyed for the first time in a while and tried to separate Ranz and Lady.
“Hey! Randell talked to him in the kitchen. Prepare the food while you’re at it. I am starving!” Nida dragged Lady inside her room, waving her hands at the two. Nida doesn’t like it when Ranz is annoyed, especially since he has the bad habit of being violent when angry. “We will have our own girl talk!”
Bam!
Nida locked the door and left Ranz and Randell alone in the living room.
Haaa~
Ranz heaved a long sigh, but he remained scowling. Ranz now knows why Nida sent Wendell flying. It is frustrating to be interrupted in the middle of an important conversation.
He is not only annoyed but also doesn’t know how he will deal with Nida after this, now that their conversation didn’t end well.
“She should be thankful that I don’t have my claws anymore.” Ranz blamed Lady for everything.
“Hey, Ranz! Don’t treat her like that; she’s my–. ” Randell took a breather and reflected on his relationship with Lady.
“She’s your what?” Ranz asked while crossing his arms.
“This is strange.” Randell tilted his head and said, “We only met twice. Why am I working hard like this?”
“You asshole! Stop taking home random crazy girls!” Ranz squeezed Randell’s cheeks. He would love to punch his brother out of irritation, but only Nida will suffer from healing Randell.
“S-she’s not crazy, though! She’s a kind girl. She was just like that because she was concerned that maybe one of us was getting abused!” Randell replied while trying to get away from Ranz Hands.
“How did you know that she’s kind? You only met her twice!” Ranz scolded Randell and continued squeezing Randell’s cheeks.
“She will be my instructor at the vocational course I took. So be good to her! I’ll be seeing her more often from now on!”
“So you’re not going to date her?” Ranz had finally let go of Randell, and the two looked at each other confusingly.
“Why would I date her? We have only met each other twice.”
“Then why are you two doing it already?”
“Doing what?”
“Sex in the car.”
“…”
There is a short silence in between them.
Randell looked at Ranz with disbelief, while Ranz was looking at Randell with a scowling expression, waiting for Randell’s explanation. He always thought of Randell as innocent and pure and never thought that he could do such a thing, but still, the possibility of Randell’s exploring at his age is high.
“You have misunderstood us as well, Ranz. We are not doing that. Do you think I’ll be attracted to her? I love girls with big boobs like Nida!” Randell shouted at Ranz, claiming what Ranz had said was ridiculous.
Ranz lost his scowl, and he was stunned at what Randell said, but later he chuckled.
“Your right! Nida’s chest was be-.” Ranz could not continue what he had to say because of the silver dust that suddenly pushed them toward the kitchen. And before it disappeared, the silver dust hit them in the head.
….
….
“Ugh! Those bastards!” Nida said as she put her palm on her face. She then looked at Lady, who was also flustered about what she had heard from Randell.
Nida and Lady were inside Nida’s room talking to her, but Nida had no idea Randell would shout his preference in boobs.
“I am sorry for that.” Nida apologized, but Lady just kept staring at Nida’s healthy chest and hugging her flat front.
“Your name is Lady, right? I am sorry for all the trouble and the confusing things we showed you. We should treat you better as our guest, but we really suck at that. Actually, we really did have such a weird relationship, but I assure you that none of us is being abused or exploited. Thank you for the concern. ”
“B-But the way I see it, it’s not only weird, but your relationship is dangerous! Perhaps you are color blind and can’t see all these red flags? Randell as well!” Lady let go of her flat chest and clasped her hand over Nida’s hands instead. She hasn’t given up yet on her thought that Ranz is an evil predator.
Nida frowned and was also about to snap like a ranz, but she held her temper and thought more about how to explain it to Lady. She has the power to alter memories, but it’s the last thing she would use because Nida hated such power. She doesn’t like someone altering her own memories the same way they alter others’.
“Look, miss Lady. We have known each other since childhood. There is no such thing as abuse or what not. I am not blind for whatever reason. We just live like this. That’s all.” Nida repeated the same thing again as her brain could not think of a way to make Lady stop thinking that they were being predated upon.
“Then why are you crying just a while ago?”
“Ah, That. We had a fight, but we were in the middle of making up when you barged in.” Nida brushed her long hair awkwardly. “You know what, how about hanging out with us more than trying to explain this to you? Our relationship is really complicated. My brain is really not designed for this. Let me tell you one straight fact. Randell is Ranz’s brother. I only love Ranz, so you don’t have to worry about that. You can date Randell! Anytime!”
“W-wait! I am not going to date him!” Lady was startled and flustered by the sudden shift in their topic. Why are they suddenly talking about dating?
“You don’t?” Nida looked disappointed at what she had heard. Lady’s concern for Randell is a strong indication that she will make an excellent girlfriend for Randell.”But you looked good together.”
“No! I have a boyfriend! ” Lady shouted in embarrassment.
“What the fuck? And you are flirting with him?” Nida narrowed her gaze toward Lady and was shocked by the news that Lady was indeed dating someone else. She couldn’t contain her disappointment and anger, and her silver dust suddenly appeared inside the room and glowed so brightly that it made it hard for Lady to see. Although her vision was slightly blurry, she could see the menacing aura that Nida sent off together with the glowing silver dust.
“W-what is going on?”
