Holy mother!

If she hadn’t had a best writer friend, she would not have been able to say such words.

Aster despised herself as she was saying.

After she was done, she continued to gaze affectionately at the silent man before. She peeked at Herald at the corner of her eye and saw his thumb up, but her disturbed heart was still not settled even though she had received his compliment, because she felt that this wolf king was way too different than when he was a husky... um no, wolf. He was horrible and bad tempered when he was human, not cute at all.

It made her believe that this man was like what Herald had said, insensitive, cruel.

Now she’d said all these fancy crap, but it may cause no effect in his heart at all. He may kill her the next second without a blinking eye.

Anyway...

Aster found it wasn’t going anywhere, so lowered her eyes from him, sighed, and added an ending, "if your majesty fails to find any favor in me, can you at least allow me a chance to go home for arrangement? I want to see my friends and families for the last time, and my properties..."

To this point instead, Aster lost her willing of struggling for survival, because she saw this wolf king was still indifferent and aloof, no room for argument. She survived a car accident five years ago, so she had this serious thinking about how she would die in the end, of sickness, of age, never did she thought of being killed by a wolf monster.

It’s bizarre, isn’t it...

Now she just wanted to go back to see Risa, and tell her that there WERE monsters in the world, and there were those handsome, powerful and rich alpha males as well; but these men were surely nothing like the heroes in her books, they were cruel, liked their thrones rather than women, or love...

So... she was going to be dead...

Aster now came to the point of sadness and desperation, and tears broke across her face. She wiped her cheeks and found tears were with heat.

Herald was kneeling with his back to her and did not see her crying, but he really admired this beautiful woman,who would risk all for survival at this kind of time. He knew for sure that this woman did not really fall for his king. Whoever falls in love with a man who wants to kill her would be fucking mad!

And basically, he felt, a girl with a sound mind and body would not like his king. Jesus! Nobody can put up with his bad temper! There must be something profoundly wrong with these women in his court who had had absolutely no senses in their minds and pulled each other away like flocks and climber-ed onto his bed. Talking about taste in men! Appearance and power were all they look for in a man for husband? Nobody wants to peel the skin and look into the black heart beneath?

As a man, he thought his king’s disposition was damnably horrible.

This feeling was his conclusive experience of being a servant of him for nearly one thousand years, and he’d always felt this way. Whoever marries him must have damned by God himself!

He’d always deeply felt for the girl who was going to marry his king in the future, but put that aside, he still had an urgent hope of that girl marrying his king. Who cares about his married life? He wanted vacation! Nine days at least would be taken for the wedding of the king and the queen, and a honeymoon must be in the schedule, and that would be vacation for him!

He got all excited and thrilled with the thought. Countless years of waiting, was driving him into desperation.

Now finally a girl who was perfectly suitable to be the queen in every way showed up; firstly, she was more beautiful than any of the flocks of women in the monde; secondly, she was bold enough to tease his king, so she wouldn’t be too miserable even after the marriage; thirdly, she had his spirit essence in her, if the king didn’t want her dead anymore, a child must be born soon definitely, and with the child, she was then the queen right?

So to sum it up, the girl was a gift for the position of the queen. Of course he would spare no effort to put her in the king’s bed!

At the moment, Herald was keeping his close attention on every single move of his king. After Aster had just finished her affectionate and emotional confession, she noticed a slight crack in the icy cold face of his king and the twitch around the corner of his lips, the odds of which were like seeing a living unicorn.

Holy mother!

There has never been a woman who could manage to cause so many expressions on his cold and fierce king’s face!

He could see it happening!

"Huh? You surely are self-aware!"

what?

Is this...rejection?!

What the?!

That is your answer to a girl who’s just put on a perfect show and confessed her affectionate love for you, with such pride and cruel words?

Damn! Such a swollen head his king had! Swollen!

Herald at the moment was pissed and worried, and waves of his cold sweat on his forehead just burned out with his anger.

How could a heart be such frozen hard? She was complimenting after all, why there was no ripple at all?

With that being the case, his king would never find a girlfriend, for another eight thousand years, or till the end of this Grand Monde !

His vacation would be off the schedule forever...

Herald felt such grief in his heart. He wanted cry but he was a man and it was not accepted even in the monster world, so he decided to push a little harder, and let the girl have one more try?

He gestured her with his hand behind his back again.

Aster saw through her blurry eyes the gesture Herald made, implying that she should put more efforts and try harder, but... but that wolf had already turned her off, how could she try harder?

She now felt offended, pissed, so much!

She wasn’t going to live anyway, why not get it all out before dying!

Aster wiped her tears with her arms, raised her head and stared deadly at this wolf monster who couldn’t see nothing in his eyes, her words becoming the archers’ arrows, "you confidence is surely a mystery! Proud and blind! Not interested in me? Are you blind?! I was the campus belle in kindergarten! Prom queen in high school! And in college the guys’ eyes never left me! Do you hear that? Talent scouts follow me wherever I go, even when I travel! Do you also hear that? My performance is always the best of them all, both academically and art-wise! Classical dancing, violin, 1580 on my SAT! I started my own business in college! I make 7 hundred thousand dollars at least one year. My pursuers are lined up from my office all the way down to my garage, and do you know which floor I’m in? Thirty third!"

Aster’s spleen had not been fully vented, she pointed at her own eyes, then at his, continued without a pause, "you are not interested in me? And take satisfaction in that? You should really have your eyes checked and corrected by the best ophthalmologists! Maybe you don’t even know what an ophthalmologist is! To the hell with you! You are much cuter when you are a wolf! So heartless when you are human!"

At the end, Aster took a deep breath, and scolded, "I’m leaving it here today! You figure it out yourself! Kill me or love me!"
