18 You're Seriously A Weird Woman 2

"Wahh! Pretty!" Along the journey, Sarah quickly diverted her thought into appreciating the nature view. The snow was falling and the landscape was turning white.

The wolf commented, "You're really a weird woman. Normal people usually take time to adjust their feeling. But, you almost change it instantly. How did you do that?"

"What do you mean? Were you saying I'm easy to change my feeling? Of course not! I'm- nevermind." She couldn't lie that she still had this trauma inside her. But she tried her best to fight it, it was all for her chance to go back home. She decided she shouldn't be weak. She knew how her condition right now, it wasn't the best, but little by little, she tried to think the positive side.

Like he said who still had no plan to eat her or being his sidekick to help him. She thought it wasn't bad, it wasn't a hard task at all. She could do it!

Due to that, she was planning to take advantage of that time to be friendly with him. She learned her lesson, she should not force herself being nice to him immediately, because he would find out easily.

Also his words about 'being normal' in front of him. She snorted funnily, how could she act normal with this demon wolf? She always surrounded by terror, feeling afraid if someday he changed his mind to eat her. She tried to be natural as possible, as normal as possible, and slowly gaining his trust in front of him, yet if he really wanted her to be normal and honest, well, she could do that too!

She continued, "You are not me, so you don't know how my feeling work. So, stop asking me like you know everything, stupid dog." She kind of regret it saying it. Now, how would he respond? Would he kill her?

A red vein popped out on his forehead, he replied, "'Stupid dog' again?"

Bracing her heart, she went all out her feeling, she pouted and explained, "You said, I should be normal in front of you. If you want me to be myself, well this is my real self. What? You got a problem?"

Snorting, he said, "Foul mouth woman, your personality is changing 360 degrees. I'm quite shocked. But, yes, I know from the start you have this kind of personality. I like this side of your better. Besides, I'm not mad and please stop calling me a stupid dog."

'Like?' Her heart thumped once, never once in her life, people like or accept her blunt personality, even in front of her parents she needed to act like a nice and sweet baby girl, plus Daniel, he once scolded her not to be so frank or told her to watch out her mouth under control, that was why she never talked to Daniel with sarcasm tone, yet with this demon, he said he didn't mind her way of speaking.

In her school life, when she tried to be herself like this in front of her friends, they were all avoiding her or afraid of her. That was why her other nickname was 'sharp mouth', it was also the reason she liked to join debating and speech competition. She, perhaps, could kill someone just by her words.

She had one weakness which people could guess it when they spent to much time with her, it was about her who couldn't lie or act perfectly. She was thinking, maybe that was the reason, this wolf didn't believe her. Her acting sucks! Well, except for that freaking chief Badru. She was pondering how could a miracle happen that let her bluff acting succeed to avoid 'that' nasty event. She couldn't help to feel relieved.

Shivering from the bad memory. The cold wind touched her cheeks making its blushing red. To avoid that, she buried her head on his white fur neck. Without her realizing, her tone changed like a spoiled child, she commented, "No, I want to call you 'stupid dog'. Because you are indeed stupid and weird. You don't have a name and I don't like to call you, Mr. Wolf. It's annoying and I hate it."

Growling, from her words, he didn't expect her mouth suddenly losing control. He warned her, "Damn woman, watch your words. Is 'name' really important for you?" She shook her head on his neck and nodded, her face making him tickle.

He heard her saying, "I don't want to watch my mouth, because you tell me to be myself, so accept it and be it. This is who I am. Plus, yes, 'name' is important. It's for addressing you and mommy- I mean mother told me 'name' is a significant thing for people. Now, let me give you a name."

"But, I'm a demon and why should be you?" He squinted his eyes without looking at her. He didn't want to say that she was actually right. That he had this half human blood within him. Technically, he was also a human and a demon wolf.

She rubbed her cold hand on his neck and said, "No matter what creature it is, it still needs a name, and because I'm your sidekick, I want to give you a good name, umm... Master."

His sharp ears heard her and repeated her word, "Master?" He liked her to call him that, he told her, "Ahem, I said I don't need it, but I think 'master' is good enough." Sarah heard her as she looked at the blurry scenery, it looks like he was speeding his pace. Was he that happy?

Magically, she didn't feel trouble or sick at all again. Except for her red hair became moist and a mess. She shook her head again and answering him, "But, it's not good enough for me. Then, can I just call you 'Master Neel'?"

Widened his eyes slightly, he curiously asked, "'Neel'?What's with that name? There's a meaning behind it?"

"Yes, it means a blue sapphire. It based on your eyes, although you are blind when you looked at me with those eyes of yours it reminded me of that word. So, let me call you 'Master Neel'." She explained honestly. She got his stare all the time, how could she didn't notice his eyes color? It also recalled her of a certain man in her dream. She remembered that man also had the same eyes, and his lips too were so tempting.

Suddenly her thought was destroyed by his voice. "Then, no need to call me master. 'Neel' is fine." After hearing the meaning, he pretty much like it. Even though he never saw this blue sapphire thing in reality. When he got his temporary sight again, his friend showed him a book and he saw it for the first time a stone called blue sapphire. It was really pretty. Was that how she described his eyes looks like? His heart weirdly feeling warm. He didn't know why.

Lifting her head, she glanced down, she was quite unbelievable. He finally accepted the name? Was this mean, he began trusting her? She asked to make sure, "Eh? Really?"

"Yes." He simply stated.

She was right! Giggling quietly, she called carefully, "Neel? Neel?"

"What?"

"No reason. Just calling you." She chuckled and duck down back on his fur.

He commented with an indifferent tone, "Sarah, don't call me unnecessary like that. Let me focus running."

Lifting her head again, she opened her eyes wide. "Oh my, did you just call my name for the first time?" This entire day he had been constantly calling her 'you' or 'foul mouth woman' all the time. So, when she heard him calling her name was quite surprising.

He became flustered and quickly changed back her nickname, "No, I-I didn't, you foul mouth woman! Can you be quiet for a moment?"

Tsk! She clicked her tongue. She took back her opinion, she was quite annoyed, but her eyes kept locking on his face. Both didn't say anything and continue the journey. Passing one rock to another rock, and landed smoothly on the cold ground. She turned her back and saw snow mountains behind her. Her breath turned freezing and her eyes turned sleepy. The clothes she had which Neel gave her, made her warm enough. She felt quite grateful for that. She muttered his name, "...Neel."

"Yes?"

"Can I sleep?" Because his body was so comfortable and squishy, she couldn't help want to take a nap.

Noticing her weak voice and the sudden change temperature, he estimated the time that it almost evening. He needed to search another empty cave to rest by night. He could feel bad blizzard would be invading the area pretty soon. He said as he checked her condition, "Then, hold me tight. Be careful not to fall down. Are you feeling cold?"

Her lips were trembling, but she didn't feel much colder at all due to him. "No, because of your fur, I'm feeling warm. Thank you."

He listened to her heartbeat, she didn't tell lie. She sincerely saying that. Feeling something stir on his stomach, he just told her, "Just sleep."

...

Feeling her breath, he ignored it as he found another cave and laid her down on the ground. The blizzard he predicted was happening. He brought his lighting power and created a blue fire to the branch he gathered. The blue fire changed to red, and the wolf changed his wolf form to human form.

His short white hair was covering his eyes, and his automatic white shirt and white pants were there as well. He walked to the entrance and looked at the sun was setting down.

Sarah blinked her eyes and only blurry image on her eyes, she looked at the broad back man not so far in front of her. She saw him turning his head to the side and she witnessed his fair skin and red plump lips. That man looked familiar? Was she dreaming again?

Neel turned his self around and walked back towards Sarah. Closing her eyes, she didn't see what this man would do to her. She thought it was just a dream, but why she felt it was real? She also could feel someone was embracing her. It was so comfortable and his smell was so nostalgic, like a lotus smell, it was one of her favorite perfume. Due to that, she fell into a deep slumber without her notice.

Neel carried her body and placed her head on his chest. He tried to warm her because his temperature was much higher when he was in human form. He tilted his head down on her pretty face, yet he couldn't see it and only can imagine the memory he got from last night. He sighed when looking at it. Brushing her auburn hair which covered her forehead, he placed it behind her left ear. "Why it must be you?" He whispered softly.

GRUMBLE!!!

He quickly turned his head and sensed something dangerous. Black creature! He looked down and realized she was still asleep. She didn't feel anything? He thought.

Without another hesitation, he left her and dashed outside. Jumping to one of the highest places, he saw something who looked like a black creature.
