Chapter 36 - Are you in a heat spell?

Sin Jeong-Hyuk looks at her. Her round chicken-like eyes are beaming with hope. He can't figure out whether she's pretending or not.

He's doing this because the serpent is definitely a bad man for her. Who marries someone just because both of them are shapeshifters? She's not a damn snake. What if the serpent eats her? No Shi Won has that sinister look.

Between a serpent and a bird, he prefers birds for sure.

She reaches out to him, tugging his pinkie finger and smiling at him. Blinking his eyes, Sin Jeong-Hyuk wonders if he can ever understand this girl. There are times when she's shy and blushing as if she's the purest creature of the world. Then, there are those times when she's bold… too bold. And now, she's openly asking him to consummate their fake marriage.

Has she lost her head?

"Chicken." He hesitates as he pulls his hand away from her hand. "Let's talk about personal matters when we are alone."

"Tonight, we will consummate it then," She says to him cheerfully as she claps her hands. Chang Seol leans closer and whispers in his ear, "Mister, you have prior experiences right. Take care of my first time then. I leave everything to you."

Having heard her murmurs, Sin Jeong-Hyuk can't stop his face from turning red. He clears his throat and looks toward the window whilst he tries his best to hide his embarrassment for both of them.

Chicken is such a tease!

No Shi Won shakes his head slowly as he takes his phone out of his pocket. He looks at the name on the screen and frowns a little. In any case, the phone call has to be picked up. "Hello, Cousin."

Seeing that No Shi Won is occupied with the call, Chang Seol chuckles and moves her body closer to Mister. Brushing her arm against his, she rests her head on his shoulder. Her hand sneaks behind his back Slipping into his shirt like a little worm, she runs the tips of her fingers in a circular motion in the middle of his back, sending teasing tingles in his skin.

"What are you doing?" Sin Jeong-Hyuk glares at her. He has never been teased by a woman before. Chicken is certainly crossing all the limits today. He tries to grab her hand that is pinching his back but she keeps moving.

"Am I doing something?" Chicken blinks her eyes innocently. "It's my hand that wants to touch you."

When No Shi Won gives him a glance, he ceases his action and tries to look nonchalant. The serpent gazes out of the window and continues to talk to his cousin.

"Are you in a heat spell?" He scowls at her.

"Maybe." Chicken sighs. "Mister, I feel sick and hot. What do I do?"

"Alright, alright." He takes a breath. It must be the shapeshifters' problem. Then that day, she was also in heat. His Chicken isn't a lust-crazy girl. "Don't overdo it."

Chang Seol smirks. She has received the 'permission'. Biting her lower lip, she sticks closer to Sin Jeong-Hyuk, holding his arm close to her chest. It feels good to hold his arm like this. She certainly wants more. It would have been better if No Shi Won wasn't here.

"No, she's not a dragon." No Shi Won exhales. He gazes at the girl in front of him. There's a mischievous smile on her face. This girl was supposed to be his bride. Now, he has to see her looking that way at someone else.

He's been keeping an eye on her since he came back to the country. It's surprising that she didn't want to marry him. Then again, it must be his fault. If he had tried to get to know her when he was still in the country…

But he shape-shifted for the first time when he was only thirteen. He wasn't allowed to see her until their wedding. The elders were worried that he might do something to her during his heat spells.

First few years after the first change are quite unstable. By the time he had some control over himself, it was time for him to go abroad and study. He came back when she turned nineteen and hoped to see her. However, she ran away from home. When she was found, she was already married.

He can't say that there's nothing in his heart for her.

[Then, what is she? I heard she married a human. Is that human going to be alright?]

"He's more than alright." No Shi Won glances at Sin Jeong-Hyuk who has a constipated look on his face. He wonders what is up with this human and why is he squirming in his seat. "Grandfather met him already. He's impressed with this human. Anyway, how are you?"

[Been better.] His cousin becomes silent for a moment. [He isn't coming back. I think that I will go where he is.]

His cousin has been depressed since her boyfriend left the city. It's already been a year. Where could that man be?

[One of our mutual friends is in Z City. If my guess is right, he should be there -- I am already on my way to his place.]

Her cousin's voice is anxious. In reality, he would love it if his cousin gives up on that man. Who runs away like this? Besides… No Shi Won taps his fingers on his knee, watching the sea waves crashing on the beach as the car heads toward Z City.

"I am also going to Z City. I am sending you an address. Meet me before you go to his place. I will bring Chang Seol with me."
