The Beauty And The Wolf - Chapter 161
The following day.
After they finish eating breakfast, Rhett and Sabrina head to the nearest town.
The carriage arrived at the heart of the town, one hour later.
The couple paid the driver their fare and exited the vehicle.
“My love, let’s check out that store over there! They’re selling all kinds of wigs!” Sabrina said, pointing her hand at the store in the left corner.
“Okay, let’s go,” Rhett responded.
They walked towards the store holding hands.
Inside the store, only a few customers are browsing the aisle, checking out the wigs.
Sabrina brought Rhett to the section where the black straight and wavy hairs are hanging on the rack. She picked up two black wigs, one was straight and the other was wavy in style. She showed it to Rhett. “How about these to wigs?” she asked for his opinion.
Rhett looked at the wigs and nodded his head. “They looked fine to me,” he replied casually.
“Okay, I’ll buy them,” she said, not wanting to prolong their stay in the store because Rhett might get bored.
They went to the cashier section and Rhett paid their purchases.
The couple left the store.
“Where do you want to go next?” Rhett asked.
“How about we buy a new shirt and pants for you?” Sabrina suggested.
“Okay, as you say so, my love,” he said and pinched her nose lovingly.
They entered a store selling cheap clothes.
The couple began browsing the clothes display and they manage to buy two shirts and two pairs of pants for Rhett. They left the store afterward.
“Where next, my love?” Rhett asked. “How about you? You don’t want to buy a dress?” he suggested.
“No need… I still have lots of clothes there in the hut,” she replied. Sabrina declined his offer. After all, she doesn’t need new clothes because she will be gone for a long time.
“So… where are we going next…?” Rhett inquired roaming his eyes around the busy street.
“Let’s go to the public plaza, over there!” she said, pointing at the plaza a few meters ahead.
“Okay,” Rhett spoke.
The couple walked towards the plaza which is not crowded during that time.
They chose a spot away from the crowd. They lowered themselves on the concrete bench located under the shade of a tree.
Smiling, Rhett’s attention was drawn to a family of four. The mother and father were putting their two children on the swing, the couple looked at each other with love shining in their eyes.
Sabrina followed Rhett’s gaze and she knew why he was smiling, he was dreaming of a happy family with her someday. She smiled bitterly. “What a lovely family!” she commented.
Rhett looked at her and smiled. “Our family would be like that someday,” he said, his eyes glowing, already imagining a happy family life with Sabrina. He planted a kiss on her cheeks. “I can’t wait for us to get married!” he said softly.
Misty-eyed, Sabrina hugged him tightly, trying to stop the tears from coming out of her eyes.
They stayed in the plaza for a few hours, watching the children and their parents bonding together.
During lunchtime, they went to an eatery located near the plaza and ate their lunch with gusto.
Afterward, they went back to the busy street and entered different stores selling all types of stuff.
They were having fun exploring the town.
Hours went by.
The evening is fast approaching.
Sabrina felt hungry. “My love, I’m hungry already. Let’s eat our dinner in that restaurant over there!” she said.
“Sure!” Rhett replied happily.
They entered the restaurant and ordered their dinner.
While waiting for their order.
“My love, it’s already night. How about if we stay in one of the inns here and return to our place tomorrow morning…” she suggested.
Rhett nodded his head. “No problem. I’ll agree to anything you want, my love!” he said.
Sabrina giggled happily. “Thank you so much, my love!” Grateful, she planted a kiss on Rhett’s cheek.
The waiter arrived and delivered their order consisting of beef and pork dish with vegetables, the specialty of the house.
“Let’s eat! I’m starving!” Sabrina said.
The couple ate their delicious dinner with a great appetite.
After they finished eating, they left the restaurant and went back to the plaza, this time they secured themselves a two-seater swing.
They spent two hours in the plaza, enjoying the lovely evening and the company of each other.
Two hours later.
Sabrina began yawning, she stood up. “Let’s go find an inn to sleep! I’m sleepy already,” she said, covering her mouth with her hand as another yawn left her mouth.
“Okay, boss!” Rhett said with a smile. He draped his arms around her and planted a kiss on her head.
They went back to the street and inspected the inns lining up in the street.
They settled in The Starlight Inn. A five-story building with a nice lobby and clean, spacious rooms.
Inside their rented room.
After they finished their routines in the bathroom, the couple cuddled in the bed.
“Happy, my love?” Rhett asked.
Sabrina looked into his eyes and smiled brightly. “Yes, of course! With you by my side, I’m always happy! I can’t ask for anything more!” she responded.
Rhett buried his face on her neck and began caressing her inner thighs.
“OMG, you’re getting horny!” Sabrina giggled.
“Let’s make love tonight!” he whispered suggestively and nuzzled her ears erotically.
Sabrina can’t stop giggling, then Rhett silenced her mouth with a searing kiss that took their breath away.
Their make-out intensifies as intense passion and lust surge into their body.
A few minutes later, the couple was already naked, pleasuring each other on the bed.
The room was filled with their moaning and panting, which ended in a mind-blowing climax a few minutes later.
The room was now replaced with silence.
The couple can be seen lying on the bed, happily sated, their naked bodies were covered with a blanket, enjoying the aftermath of their intense lovemaking.
Rhett kissed Sabrina’s head. “Goodnight, my love! Sweet dreams…” he whispered.
“Night night!” Sabrina responded.
“I love you so much!” Rhett said.
Sabrina smiled sweetly. “I love you more!” she replied in a sleepy voice.
The couple shut their eyes, going to sleep.
A few minutes later, the couple drifted into a deep slumber, enveloped in each other’s warmth.
…
Across the miles, at the Laswich Mountain.
Aston was standing beside the window, standing at the dark horizon, wearing a gloomy expression on his face.
Azere placed the blanket and pillow on the mat that she placed on the floor. “You can sleep now if you want, your bed is ready,” she said.
Aston looked at her. “Thank you for letting me sleep here in your place,” he said.
Azere sighed. “It’s okay… since you defy the supreme witch and wanted to help me, then that automatically makes you my ally,” she said.
“I don’t deserve your forgiveness – but thank you for giving me a chance to make it up to you,” Aston said in a wretched voice filled with guilt and shame.
Azere smiled and said, “Let’s no longer talk about the past… let’s move on…”
Aston nodded his head and asked, “I’m just wondering why you didn’t kill the supreme witch and his men? Why did you go easy on them?”
Azere sighed. “I’m not a murderer… but if they return here and cause havoc again then I might just do as you suggested. Giving them diarrhea is just a warning… If they are stupid and still insist on returning here then I will be showing no mercy on them anymore,” Azere said.
“Okay, since you already made the decision, I will respect it. By the way, did you find Betty’s dead body?” he asked.
“Sorry, I don’t have to answer your question,” Azere replied. She won’t tell him because the supreme witch might take hold of Aston and squeezed the truth out of him. It’s better to be safe than sorry. She can’t fully trust him yet.
Aston watched the conflicting emotion flashing on Azere’s eye. “I see… I understand. You go ahead, I’ll sleep when I’m ready to sleep,” he said. When Azere didn’t answer his question about Betty, he had a suspicion that the injured woman is still alive and recovering somewhere.
“Okay, good night,” Azere said.
“Night night,” Aston responded.
Azere turned around and went back to her room to retire for the night.
Aston continues staring at the darkness of the night. The moon was a no-show in the sky tonight. The house was surrounded by darkness. He has no idea how effective the diarrhea illness that the medallions have given to the supreme witch and his men, all he knows is that they will return here at some point in time to continue their evil plan.
He can no longer return to the White Coven Castle because he defies the supreme witch and that makes him his enemy. He does have an alternative, he can leave this hut and roam the world freely but he can’t leave Azere alone on her own here. He needs to stay by her side until this mess is finally over.
Since things have ended this way, he somehow felt the need to protect her from harm.
He continues gazing at the dark sky above.
One hour later.
Aston started yawning and closed the window. He lowered himself on the mat and lay his head on the pillow. He glanced at the closed door of Azere’s room, wondering if she was already sleeping right now.
He shut his eyes preparing to go to sleep.
Meanwhile…
Inside Azere’s room.
She had a hard time sleeping, wondering why the butterfly hadn’t come back yet to report to her?
The delay of the butterfly’s return only means one thing, it failed to find Olga until now. She was getting worried about her. She hoped her friend is safe wherever she is right now.
Then her mind wandered to the missing people in the cave, especially her charge, Sabrina. Her heart was aching for her. She hoped that they were all safe wherever they are right now.
After thinking of a lot of things and her dire situation, Azere’s brain finally got tired and shut down, allowing her to sleep peacefully through the night.
