The Werewolf King's Bride Chapter 83: Under The Willow Tree

(From Blue's Perspective)

Even though I told him not to, he put the dress on himself. And of course, he tried to do indecent stuff as always.

"I didn't know they would grow after you turn eighteen," he muttered as he zipped the dress up.

"Grow? What're you talking about?"

"Your breasts," he said nonchalantly.

"..."

"They were a handful, but now they spill through my palms," he said while making weird gestures with his hands as if he was trying to prove his words.

I felt so embarrassed that I felt the urgent need to hide my face sowhere. "Stop saying such embarrassing things as if it's nothing!"

"But it's the truth," he shrugged. "Though you breasts grew in the past few days, sothing else is still the sa."

"... Please stop talking," I said tiredly.

"I can understand why your breasts grew. As I give them my utter affection every day, they surely want to show their gratitude by growing up, don't you think? But what I don't understand is even though we do it more than normal, down there, you're still almost as tight as the first ti. But, I like all of you as it is."

"... Are you seriously talking about that? Honestly, let's go already. You said you have sothing to tell ," I said in hope of getting out of this weird conversation.

"Ah, my wife is so shy," he said and touched my cheek with the back of his hand. He rubbed his knuckles against my cheek. Whenever he did this, my heart would feel lighter and the butterflies in my stomach would go crazy. "Your face is red like a tomato, your ears as well. Hah, such a cute expression- I want to eat you up."

"Nope," I said and pushed him away by the chest. "It's not the ti to be like that. Let's go now."

"Alright, alright, my darling wife," he chuckled and tapped on my nose.

'Again, you did it again...'

I wondered when it started that he would call by sweet nas and I felt like it was the most normal thing possible. Was it usual between couples? Or was it just us? But in any way, the feeling was quite blissful, as if I was waiting for this my whole life.

We went to the garden together. I had seen the willow tree in the middle of the garden before too, but I never went near it. For so reason, I did not like the look of the tree. I was not soone to be too fond of trees or to hate trees. But I was always interested in finding out about them. Perhaps it was because of my photographic mory that I always wanted to know more and more about everything.

The willow tree was no different, but I did not like to go near it.

As Detrius wanted to go there, I did not oppose. He might feel bad if I said no. But if he liked this place, perhaps I would like it as well as long as he was with .

"You are smiling," he said all of a sudden.

'Yes, I'm smiling, but do you have to point it out? Now it's weird.'

"The weather is good."

"Haha, is that why you're smiling?" he chuckled. "My wife, aren't you lying to your husband? And besides, the weather is hot. You don't like hot weather."

"... That's true."

"Then can I know why you were smiling? Is it because of ?" he asked, bringing his face too close to mine.

"Please let it slide," I said in a surrendering way.

He laughed. "Just say it's because of . As long as it's , I don't mind."

"Who else would it be?"

"So you're admitting you smiled because of ?"

"..."

We sat under the shade of the willow tree. Looking at Detrius, it seed like the place was to his liking. He looked relaxed. But I could not say the sa about . I felt weird. It was as if soone did not want to be here, as if I was invading soone else's property.

"What's wrong?" he asked. His arms were crossed behind his head as he leaned against the body of the tree.

"Nothing," I said quickly. Perhaps I was feeling this way because I was tired. But then why did I feel this way whenever I ca near this tree? "Well, what did you want to tell ? It seed like it was sothing serious."

"It's sothing I didn't tell you."

"Huh? What is it?"

"Rember when I said that you saved Evelyn?"

"Uh-huh."

"As I said, that was the first ti I saw you. But there was another ti when you didn't save any other werewolf, rather ," he said.

It was quite a surprise. I did not know how to react. Should I be happy that I saved him? Or should I be anxious that he was hurt? I hated mixed feelings and now I was feeling that again.

"You don't rember it, I know."

"W-What? I don't get it..."

"I actually used a potion on you so you would forget what happened that day."

"But why?" I asked. Did sothing horrible happen that day that he had to use that potion on ?

"It was five years ago. I always went to see you once a year and to make sure that you were not taken."

'Well, that's like you.'

"There was a guy with weirdly blue hair who wanted to confess to you. Thankfully, I found out and scared him off by threatening him. And since I was much older, he got scared," he said normally. "But then one day, I t soone unexpected there."

I could not even guess who it could be. It must be a suspicious human. It could not be another werewolf, right? Since it was my world, there could not be another werewolf, unless it was also an...

"It was another Alpha," he said.

"Another Alpha?"

It was true that he told that only Alphas could enter my world once a year. Yet, it was hard to accept that another Alpha went to my world, and more importantly, to my city out of all the continents, countries, towns, and villages.

"Yeah. Rember King Ford?"

"King Ford? Isn't he the king of Trouvaille?"

"That's right. It was him. And apparently, we don't have a good relationship, neither our kingdoms." He had said this before too that King Ford was arrogant enough to na his kingdom after him. Since then, I did not like this guy even though I never t him. Detrius was arrogant too and he liked to show off, but it did not get to the point to na his kingdom after his na.

I pity the people of Trouvaille since I would feel disgusted to live in a place that was nad after soone else no matter who he was. Dem even told that Trouvaille had skilled spies and they could be anywhere around us. They were from the suicide squad. It was hard to believe that they would not mind giving their lives up for missions.

"He was there because sohow he found out about you," he said. "I don't know how it happened. No one was supposed to find it out, but still, sohow he managed to. So, he went there to kill you."

"Exactly how old is this King Ford?" I asked. "His na sounds pretty old."

"He is the sa age as ," he said. "But that's not the point. If you want to get angry at , I can understand."

'Why would I get angry at you? Because King Ford wanted to kill ? Oh please, my family wanted to kill my whole life. Who cares about this random dude?'

"I'm not angry. Please continue."

"... So, when I found him lurking around the coffee shop you used to work at, I fought him. I actually challenged him and as he is too proud of himself, he accepted it. Both of us were badly injured, but he managed to run away before I killed him. Actually, our conditions were really bad. The fight between two Alpha is always dangerous and most of the ti, one of them dies.

And even if they don't die, they are gravely injured. So when I was planning to leave as it was the only way I could survive, you found first. I could not go ask for dicines anywhere and it was hard for to move in that condition. Truly saying, I was too arrogant to ask for help and even if I did ask for help that ti, there might be police or doctors involves.

So what if they asked for my identity? You see, there were a lot of difficulties. Yet, there were you. As always, you were there when I needed you even though I did not want you to find ."
