“So, you’re ‘him,” Roxanne said with a frown.
The mysterious man shrugged. He didn’t know what she meant by ‘him', but he couldn’t be
bothered enough to ask. He only had one purpose for visiting, to talk to Rita.
“Just what did you tell her?” He asked Rita.
Rita looked a bit guilty, showing that she divulged more than was necessary. She laughed
sheepishly as the man shook his head slightly and slapped his face.
“You never change. In any case, I only came to see how the ‘mate' is doing. It’s a good thing I
came right on time…” He said to Rita, turning his face to look at Roxanne.
“What were you trying to pull off just now? Escaping? I wouldn’t advise that '' He said to her.
Roxanne clenched her teeth as she glared deeper than before.
“Oh? Why not? You don’t want me to escape so I can remain here and be some sort of weird
werewolf mate, Isn’t that right!” Roxanne said ruefully.
“Well, that is true. But even apart from that… You wouldn’t be able to last two hours in the woods
by yourself. It is especially cold in this part of the woods. Besides, even if you manage to escape safely,
chances are you’ll run into another pack. And believe me… They will not show you any mercy. We
werewolves aren’t known to be very lenient to outsiders… Especially ones who associate with humans
like you.” The man said in a calm tone.
“Then why did you capture me then? You should have just left me be? You monster! I never asked
for any of this! I don’t care if you’re some sort of Alpha or Wolf King or even the goddamn president. I
demand you let me go now!” Roxanne mandated.
He looked at her calmly and breathed slowly. A brief moment of silence ensued as Roxanne's fiery
eyes locked on to his cool blue ones. Finally, he opened his mouth to speak.
“No”
Roxanne was taken aback by his express bluntness, but it wasn’t as if she didn’t expect it. It
looked like, unlike Rita, she couldn’t reason with this one. She had no choice.
“Then I’ll have to make you!” She said to him with determination.
Roxanne was fairly confident in her fighting prowess. She had considerable strength, stamina,
speed, endurance, an all rounder with freakish stats. Her body had been tempered with countless
training and she had beaten men who looked even more well built than the strange guy who refused
her.
“You’re welcome to try,” He said with a slight grin.
“He’s mocking me!” Roxanne thought to herself with an angry look.
With her years of experience in boxing and her time dedicated to training, there was no way she
would lose to a guy with merely a pretty face and nice body. The only reason she lost to the man with
her mom was because she wasn’t prepared, mentally and physically. She was also a wreck emotionally
at that point so all her moves were rash.
In such an ideal situation like this when she had something to fight for, something at stake… She
wasn’t going to lose.
“Roxy… I mean Roxanne, calm down. You don’t need to…” Rita tried to reason with Roxanne, who
stubbornly looked at the man in the room.
“Don't interfere in this Rita! Even if it’s you I won’t show any mercy” Roxanne said to her, not
unhinged from her standpoint.
“To be honest I won’t need to… Roxanne, don’t…” She was still opposed.
“Leave her be Rita. Some things can not be learned by words alone. Soon, she will understand
very clearly how mistaken she is' ' He said.
“Tch, sure. Keep running your mouth!” Roxanne said, taking her fighting pose.
She lifted up her two hands and raised them up, ready to fight.
“Just, please take it easy on her… Okay?” Rita said to the man.
“Of course, I wouldn’t want to ‘damage' her. He’ll kill me if I do” He smiled slightly.
This made Roxanne even madder. Her veins began to show and her rage was obvious. They were
all looking down on her. Her? Other than her excellent boxing skills, she was also one of the top in her
night escapades. A bunch of forest nobodies dared to underestimate her?
“I don’t care if they’re werewolves or not! As long as they’re in their normal forms, I’ll beat them!”
she decided.
