16 I Don't Have A Name

With indifferent face, he looked at her naked body. 'Outfit.' He thought. Lifting her body on his arms, he went back to the cave, laying her down on the ground. He dashed outside searching for abandoned clothes in the forest.

...

In shocking state, Sarah opened her eyes once again. She noticed on her body a new short black dress was being put on. Shivering, she felt someone watching at her, as she slowly turning her head in front, she saw the wolf looking at her with his blue eyes. He said, "Don't panic, I'm not going to eat you, I'm just kidding, and in fact, I don't eat human. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Sarah nodded fast and muttered weakly, "Alright."

"..."

"..."

They both fell awkward silence. They both stare each other in silence. Sarah was confused why this wolf was still here? Was he waiting for something? She said, "Umm... thank you?"

Sighing, he stated, "... I don't need your thank you. But, I think you owe me an apology and debts."

"Eh?"

"Do you think I saved you, because I'm a nice demon? Do you think I saved you without get anything in return? You waste my time last night and you make me angrier than I've ever felt before." He reminded about the contract between her, sh*t! He didn't want to start explanation this kind of stuff to her!

He continued, "Anyway, from now on, you are MY SLAVE. I don't take a 'no' answer from you. Alright?" He snorted and turned his back going outside.

Flabbergasted, she didn't know how to react, her brain cells when heard his words, exploding to pieces, she couldn't proceed what was going on, she yelled, "Wait! Wait! Where are you going?! We are still not done yet talking. What do you mean I owe you something or apology? Please explain it more clearly! What do you mean I'm your slave?!!! Hey! You!"

"..." He ignored her and jumped outside the cave.

"W-What?! You! You! I swear! You stupid dog!!! I'm not finish-"

"Who's the stupid dog?" He said with his voice muffled. Coming back from outside in blinked of eyes. Sarah halted her voice and stunned rigidly. In his mouth, two apple pierce on his teeth. He placed the apple on the ground as it was rolling to her side. "Wait, I'm going to find some more." He said coolly.

"..." Sarah became tongue-tied and followed his words to wait.

Another minute, he brought one fruit and another fruit and gave it to her. After he was done, he perked his ears and enhanced his scent vision, waiting for her to eat some of the fruits he got. But he didn't see her hand moving or crunch sound. He couldn't wait anymore and said, "Why don't you eat?"

Frowning, Sarah honestly said, "Why are you giving me this? And, I don't know if it's poison or not, and I don't know if you are going to take advantage of me just like that centipede last night. Sorry, but I don't want to eat your food."

Snorting, he couldn't believe this woman had a trust issue, "If I force you to eat this you'll attack me again, right?" She flinched from his words and she had a guess, this wolf knew about her uncontrol power.

Chuckling, he continued, "Alright, suit yourself. But after I eat this, there'll be no food for you, and get ready, we are going to depart in any moment."

"..." Sarah gazed at him who was benting his head down eating the so-called 'poison' fruits in leisure. She thought, this demon ate fruits? How bizzare, it wasn't like in the movies she ever watched before.

She seriously wanted to escape right now, but what if he attacked her? Even though she let out her power later, she had hunch this wolf also knew how to stop her easily. Just like he stopped her a couple minutes ago when she lost her body control. She experienced this twice, so it would be weird if she didn't notice her changes, right?

Touching her lips, she had a strange sensation on it. Was it only her imagination? In her memory there was a man with white hair kissed her?

Shaking her head, she shouted at herself for not being loyal to Daniel! How could she dream about another man when she still in love Daniel? And why on earth she liked an illusion kiss she got from a stranger man? She should not be thinking that!!

After a while without moving from her spot, Sarah was still watching at him eating, her mouth became dry, and gulping many times. She was hungry.

Fulling his stomach, he ate all of it and commented, "Ah! Ah! I'm going to get poison any moment. Awooo~"

"..." Choking hard, this wolf, how could she say it? He just being sarcasm to her, wasn't he? Because of her irritatedness, she asked annoyingly, "Can you explain about something, Mr. Wolf? You didn't answer my question a while ago."

"About what?"

Rolling her eyes she let out a sigh. Because this wolf like joking at her, she didn't freaking anymore and bluntly said, "About. I. Suddenly. Become. Your. SLAVE. Who are you to order me?"

With indifferent face, he answered, "If I said you already become my legal wife and I should protect you from now on, would you believe me?"

"What? No!" She shouted with her frightening face. How could she marry a wolf?! No, how could she marry a demon?!

Thank goodness, he didn't see her disgusted expression right now. If he did, he probably going to kill her on the spot. 'Neither do I' he responded inwardly.

Well, he already expected from her answer, no human like a demon. Except for his father and mother case. Although his mother a human, she liked his father just the way he was as wolf or human form too. He wondered if he ever find 'special someone' someday. But now, his dream crushed and he must spend his life with this woman? He could never imagine it.

He could bet if she ever found out his human form, she would be madly in love with him. Just like the other humans he encountered. So, he knew, this woman personality wasn't good judging from the way she said things.

Yes, she was beautiful, but that was the only thing she worth, ah, her big buttock should be included. But, truthfully, he didn't need all of that conditions as long he felt his partner was the one, whether she was an ogre, wolf, human, or other creatures. He would be happy with that someone if he felt comfortable. You could see, that the first impression he got with Sarah was kind of bad, he didn't fell anything, he was wondering if he could survive years with her.

Abruptly, he recalled there was someone who could break this contract. But, 'that someone' was in the demon realm. Sadly, he was powerless without his soul stone now! The most regretting was that he couldn't open the gate to demon realm. Damn it!

Growling annoyingly, he must endure this torture for awhile. Closing his eyes, without looking her, he said, "Alright, you are my slave then. Before you say anything that I could guess, let me answer this for you, I saved you because of my own will. It was just spontaneous. At first, I didn't expect anything from you. Because I know you are just a weak human. But last night accident, made me change my mind. I take it back, I want you to repay by helping me. You remember that I'm blind, right?"

"Ehh..."

"I want you to become my eyes, to do and to see the thing I couldn't when I'm blind. So, serve me, as I'm your master now."

"W-Wait! Like I said, why should I obey you? Just because you save me? Is that even an excuse? If it's an apology I can easily understand the reason, for that I'm sorry for bothering your time to save me. But you don't have to go that far to make me your slave."

That wasn't the only reason woman, he thought inwardly. He had a plan to tell her the contract, but on second thought, it was best for not letting her know. It would be a hassle for him if she ever found out. He bluffed, "Well, I saved you twice. I think it's enough to convince that you must work for me. I still remember my friend's word, in this world there's give and take rule. Don't you know about this? So, if you don't like my offered, what is your proposal? What's the best thing you could give me?"

Hearing his words, she knew about the fact. "Uhh..." Think hard! Think hard!

"See, in your condition, right now, you have nothing besides yourself to give. I'm not going to do anything inappropriate to you, I just want to ask for your service to take care of me."

"Like your personal maid?"

"What's a 'maid'? I only know slave words. Anyway, whether you don't like it or not, you are coming with me." The wolf couldn't explain to her that from right now, she must be by his side always. He didn't want to tell her that after he found his soul stone, she must come to his clan and became the next queen for his clan.

She would be shock, right? She would hate him, right? But, he didn't have any choice, if she died, he would die as well. If he died before finding his soul stone, his clan would be fell to ruin. He didn't want to die for nothing, at least if he could kill that 'geezer', he would be satisfied and it was enough for him to die later on.

So, now, he must bear this human female, whether he like it or not. Then, when he came to his realm, he would break this contract as soon as possible with the help of 'that someone'.

Another fact, he didn't like this kind of contract, especially the blood line he had with his family. He didn't want to admit, but he wished to become like his father who only loved his mother for entire life. They both got a soul contract, just when his mother died, his dad followed her also. Leaving him who was still a fetus to ascend to the throne in such young age. To prove himself to be a worthy king, he tried to become stand out than the rest of the wolves.

He forgot when, but the 'geezer', who tricked him, stole his soul stone, made him, the young wolf king, lost all of his privilages, and threw him into this human world, was in truth, his blood uncle. Gritting his own teeth, that was many hell deeds his uncle did, huh?! Creasing his brows when he thought about the old time.

He grabbed her clothes collar with his mouth and threw her on his back. "Kyaa! Uhh... Uhh...W- W-Where are we going?" She landed on his white fur back, as she held his neck tightly, she was afraid to fall.

"To the Haocun Kingdom." He answered short.

Eh? "The Haocun Kingdom?" Her voice tone looked surprise.

Feeling somthing wrong, he asked, "What?"

Shaking her head, she answered stutteredly, "N-Nothing. L- Let's get going."

...

If this was finally a good fortune, she really wanted to scream out loud. She didn't expect the wolf was going in the same direction as her as well. Looking at the current situation, this wolf shouldn't be bother. She was a little confused by his action. Was he nice or evil? Just like a moment ago, he told her that he would eat her and then later he was just kidding, he said he didn't eat human.

Another one was when he angrily stated, forcing her that she would be his slave, she expected she would got a bad treatment by him, but in a matter of second, he offered her something to eat. Well, even though she ended up without eating. He also explained, he wouldn't do anything to her, and he just wanted her 'eyes' to see something he couldn't see? What?!

If that wasn't nice and what was that? He basically saying, he wanted her to become his guidance or care taker like a servant. Was he a tsundere?! And why should he say 'slave' to her if her job was only like that? Sarah thought.

The image of slave on her mind was ridiculously horrible. Especially when the master was a jerk. Although, he said all of that promises, he was still a demon, she should not trust him foolishly.

She didn't even like this 'slave' status, she wasn't consent at all. This one side decision was very selfish if him. She hated it so much.

Holding his neck, she witnessed as the wolf dashed through the wind. Her hair kept fluttering and the scenery changed beautiful green, yet she didn't see it for a couple of minutes due to her mind began working about her next plan.

She thought about this wolf, did he think he could trick her? Considering his considerate action, Sarah knew this wolf wouldn't attack her and only wanted to use her for his benefit. So, should she do the same to him as well? With that it would be even for both of them.

He told her that their destination right now was the Haocun Kingdom. In the meantime, she would follow him, sticked with him, gaining his trust maybe? And when they arrived in the kingdom, she would leave him right away. If he didn't want to let her go, she didn't have any option besides killing him. Did he think only he could play and kill her?

But, if he indeed trustworthy, she may reconsider not to. But, she would see later in the future, her plans started to change bit by bit, it was the same for the wolf too.

...

While on their journey, the wolf was slowing down due to the high rock. "I'm Sarah, what's your name?" Sarah unexpectadly said, he heard her voice reaching through his huge ears.

He repeated her name quietly as he then answered short, "I don't have a name."
