Chapter 95

Fearing that it would disappear in the blink of an eye, I kept staring at the doll. Then the tottering doll opened its mouth.

“Ung.”

“What the hell, it can also talk!”

The doll is talking!!

I held my pillow high, swallowing back the scream that rose to the top of my throat.

“Uh, It’s me Lu, Lumiyan.”

Lumiyan, who walked out, stumbled forward.

“Huh?”

Why is he here…

It is said that people feel like laughing when they’re too dumbfounded, and that’s exactly what I was feeling. The pillow fell from my trembling hands and rolled across the floor. Lumiyan tried to get up but ended up retching.

‘He really made up his mind to come with me.’

I couldn’t believe he really shrinked his body and hid in my bag. It was all because of this that I felt a strange feeling since I left the mansion.

“Lumiyan, aren’t you too clever for your age?”

“Hehe, urgghh…”

I couldn’t beat him. He might just get crushed with my one fist. I pressed Lumiyan’s forehead with my index finger in anger. Lumiyan, who was pushed by the force and fell on his buttocks, grumbled.

“You, I definitely told you not to come.”

“Uggh, I don’t know what you’re talking about. I just went in to play hide and seek and ended up here.”

Wow, look at him lying through his teeth.

After living with people, the guy who only knew about eating and sleeping, had started to think.

The problem was that he kept playing tricks like this.

“Lumiyan was just playing hide and seek, but where is this?”

“Huh, who is this? Isn’t it our cutie Lumiyan?”

“Aah, a big witch…!”

Lumiyan was startled and jumped out. He had no idea about Nanabi also being here. His face turned ashen and he clung to my arm, scared.

“Lumi Lumi, did you come because you wanted to play with me?”

“No, I didn’t!”

“Then maybe with His Highness?”

I moved away from the door that Nanabi was blocking. After that, Sihael, who must have woken up from a nap, slowly entered the room.

“Heuk!”

Seeing Sihael transformed into a wolf for the first time, Lumiyan shuddered.

Hick, Hick.

Lumiyan clung to my arms as if I was his lifeline, and cried out desperately as if gasping for air.

“No? Just tell her it’s not!”

“Lumi Lumi, greet His Highness.”

“Grrr, woof! Woof woof! grrrrr!”

Oh, right. He can’t talk because he hasn’t drunk my blood.

Sihael, who was unable to express in human language, stumbled, but at least he could put forth his words clearly.

I’m sure that means — ‘If you don’t get off her right now, I’ll kill you.’

My prediction was correct as Sihael bit the Lumiyan’s clothes and forcibly pulled him down. Then he pressed the struggling Lumiyan under his paws. He looked like a mouse caught by a cat.

“Grrrrrrrrrrr.”

“Ahh! Master! He’s eating me!”

“Don’t worry, he won’t eat you because you don’t taste good.”

He could have returned to his body and ran away, but Lumiyan’s transformation had a big disadvantage. Once he changed his body size, he would have to live with that body for half a day.

Therefore, Lumiyan was stuck in his doll form.

“What luck! Your Highness, I was going to buy you a toy but now we have him. Do you like it?”

“Woof!”

Sihael understood what I meant and his eyes twinkled. He put away his big paws and pushed Lumiyan’s back.

“Wait, Master…!”

“Grrrr.”

“I don’t want to!”

Seeing Sihael’s sharp fangs, Lumiyan screamed and ran away. After that, Sihael followed him leisurely as if hunting for food.

“Lumiyan must be having a hard time.”

“Serves him right.”

He deserved it for playing a trick on me.

* * *

Lumiyan had only one thought.

This is hell.

Tears burst out of his big eyes as he tripped over a rock.

‘Why am I here…’

I should’ve just stayed home. Even though the little witch was cold, she combed my hair and dressed me in pretty clothes every day.

Don’t they say that you never realize the value of something until it’s gone?

After being driven into an extreme situation, Lumiyan realized the importance of Marina for the first time.

[Caught you!]

“Argh, please stop!”

Lumiyan, who couldn’t stand the heavy paw pressing down on his back, struggled and burst into tears.

[That’s it? How boring.]

Bad doggy! Lumiyan, who ran for more than 10 minutes with his short legs, felt wronged.

“Why are you only doing this to me?! We agreed to reconcile back then! I promised you I won’t bite my master anymore!”

Lumiyan shed tears of injustice. Sihael sighed, while watching the scene with tired eyes.

[What does Rosetta find in you adorable?]

“Hey, I’m adorable!”

Lumiyan, who did not know what he looked like covered in dirt, said confidently. Sihael laughed at him with a smug look.

[I’m more handsome than you.]

Lumiyan recalled the face of Sihael when he was a human being. He was tall, broad-shouldered, handsome…

“Eek!”

When he glared at Sihael resentfully, he hit him with his nose. Lumiyan staggered and shrugged his shoulders.

[Look here, crybaby.]

“Don’t call me a crybaby!”

[From now on, Rosetta will only be with me, so don’t interrupt us.]

In an instant, a vicious pheromone pressed down on Lumiyan. Lumiyan, who was suffocating, opened his eyes to a familiar smell he had smelled somewhere before.

‘It’s the smell of my master!’

Yesterday, he noticed that Rosetta smelled strange. This guy marked his territory all over her. Even when he was a human, his eyes were very, very impure.

You wicked dog!

“What are you going to do with my master?”

[Well, I’m thinking about it.]

Sihael closed his eyes and muttered in a languid voice.

[Should I eat her up?]

“No!”

[Or should I let her eat me up?]

“That’s not going to work… huh?”
