Chapter 84: The Most Lovely Wolf!

Nikolai sat in the back of an executive class Ober ride, his thoughts lingering back to the night before. He wondered what he should do with Ryan and Selene before shaking his head.Since the drive would be quite long, he took out his phone and began to read through all the messages from Sarah on his Tmail app. She had already begun working hard.

'Oh? This is interesting. I can see that Nagisa's company has invested in four of the six companies that Sarah has invested in.' He wondered if it was because of Sarah's skill or if Nikita helped her somehow, but then shook his head again because Nikita didn't know about her mother's side of the business.

Nikolai had no interest in being a business whizz or even taking control of what Sarah did. He was happy as long as she made money and could fulfil her dream. Although he owned the company, that meant he didn't need to worry and only enjoyed the dividends and money she would make.

He leaned back and let out a sigh, the view of the city quite pleasant during the early afternoon. People rush back to work on their dinner with lunch or carry cups of coffee for their co-workers in a cardboard box.

The scents that came from the open window were a mixture of engine oil, gasoline and the sweet scent of freshly baked doughnuts and cream.

'Hmm?' Nikolai noticed that the scent of the driver was quite fresh—his blood seemed to be diabetic from his enhanced Obsidian Tide senses. Nikolai could now become a world-class surgeon or doctor thanks to being able to sniff out any issues.

"Are you off to work, sir?" The pleasant voice of the driver asked, catching Nikolai off guard. Sёarch* The Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Ah, I am meeting my fiancée for our first date."

He didn't know how to respond and instead answered honestly. The two of them discussed general topics while enjoying the pleasant drive.

Nikolai felt he shared a lot in common with the man. However, the male had two kids and a wife and was from a better place than him in the past. He believed if he had never awakened, then this might have been his future.

"Okay, we're here. Thanks for riding with me, Nikolai." The driver remained polite and never overstepped his questions too far for the entire ride.

The car slowly pulled into the small car park before Nikolai added a large tip to the driver. He didn't ass the tip because he felt forced or had to. Instead, he believed that the hard work and efforts of the driver to maintain a high-grade service were worth it.

'I cannot forget how lucky I am to have become like this. Without being able to afford these clothes and change my life, wouldn't me and Dad still be suffering alone in that small apartment?'

[I see, although I am pleased with your feelings towards humans.]

Nikolai even felt this could be him earlier and wondered how he might feel if he gave his all and never received a tip. Although he would never demand or expect one, sometimes the feeling of being let down or your hardest efforts not being repaid could be hurtful.

[Did you ever work as a driver?]

'No, but I've worked similar jobs before, and it's quite exhausting. From being treated like garbage to being threatened with violence. It's not a rewarding sector.'

[I worried you might change once you awakened, seeing humans as inferior, and you might become like those arrogant nobles who never listen.]

'Mother, you love humans, don't you?'

[Well, yes, I love them. Because when my family and other people from our races vanished when I fell in love with your father, I became isolated and alone. The only people who stayed by my side were those boring middle-aged wives who would gossip outside in the afternoon.]

Nikolai remembered the group of old women who would pretend not to watch him exercising every morning on the veranda with Nikita and couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Those women were likely young when his mother was. Even if he could make a body for her, they would never be friends again because of their age difference.

And his mother was already buried.

[You don't need to be so serious. I am sure that if we succeed one day, then I can find new friends, and I have your father, too, right?]

'I guess...'

Nikolai stepped out of the executive car and walked towards the MoonDucks franchise, his gaze looking at the people passing. He enjoyed watching the city pass him by when he was poor, but now he could take the time to truly notice people's faces and their expressions, making it a more amusing pastime.

[Anyway, I believe I should leave you and your lovely wolf to it.]

"Hm?"

Elizabeth cut their connection, causing the necklace to flicker with a purple sparkle before her voice and presence vanished from his sight and mind. Nikolai didn't mind this, but it felt a little strange to see the pink image of his mother that floated around disappear as well.

'For a moment, I felt a sense of despair...'

He didn't understand what she meant as his black shoes tapped the ground and entered the store. Nikolai noticed the gaze of many young women, their eyes like beasts eyeing him up with a hidden desire and lust flaring up in their auras.

'Even the barista is bright pink looking at me.'

"Oh?"

His eyes captured a beautiful woman, soft silky hair the colour of snow and glossy-like silk flowing down her cheeks with a small braid along her ear, with a red gemstone tied to some feathers as a trinket that swayed in the wind.

Nikolai couldn't help but notice that his lovely fiancée wore a soft white dress that fluttered with her movements, light and beautiful, along with long white stockings that rolled up to her thighs, creating two sensual bulges of thigh meat that attracted his sight.

While on her feet were a pair of blood-red Alice shoes that matched his eyes.

'Nikita?'

He couldn't believe his eyes as she slowly turned to him and became stunned. Nikita's lovely golden orbs radiantly shone as they opened wide. Nikolai couldn't help but become enthralled by her captivating beauty, with light makeup and soft, juicy red lips pressed together.

"Nikolai?" A soft yet deep voice, her accent from the R-dialect, something that he had loved and adored since they were children.

'I felt all my heart skips a beat...'

"You look stunning, Nikita." He spoke with a gentle tone, the deep vibrations from his voice causing the lovely wolf to turn bright red and snap her head to the side, with eyes darting around in complete embarrassment.

"M-Mother... she told me to wear makeup and dress like a girl. I-Is it strange?" Nikita asked with her left hand pressing against her face to cover her warm cheeks. She had even applied a scent to her neckline, hoping her sweat would create a pheromone to attract his attention.

'Nikolai, are you not going to answer?' She peeked at his face with her lovely eyes blinking several times.

"Eh?!"

His hand wrapped around her cheek as he sat beside her, his blue suit jacket placed on the seat opposite her.

"What shall we do, Nikita?" He asked in a worried tone, causing her to panic a little.

'Doesn't it suit me? Do I look stupid?'

However, before she could even react or speak, he grasped her chin and kissed her little mouth gently, the warmth of his breath tickling her lips. A brief kiss, but her heart almost burst from the sensation of his lips and the taste of his breath. Nikita wanted more; her eyes slowly opened with a wet look.

"You're so pretty, so perfect..." His words caused her to become a mess.

"N-Nikolai, I-I, we are in public..."

The young woman trembled, her eyes turning a little hazy before a soft thud echoed out; the sound of her heartbeat was audible to him. Nikita couldn't control her excitement as he noticed the scent of her sweat, a sweet and alluring scent for him because she was his mate.

'It's said that female and male scents will change when they find a suitable partner... Her scent before was nice, but not this pleasant... I want to sniff her neck... to lick it and bite her.'

'I-I think I'm becoming a pervert after seeing my cute fiancée wear such cute clothes, huh?'

"Shall we order something to drink, baby?" Nikolai tried to distract himself, his mind running wild with his thoughts as he whispered the last word into her ears, turning the tip pink.

"Ahem, yes, let's."

Nikita agreed, but she felt rather shaken, her words and actions like a teenage male asking a beautiful girl to the prom. She took a glance at the menu, her golden eyes scanning the list of drinks, desserts and savoury treats.

Nikolai made a note of all the items her eyes sparkled for and wrote them into his notes app before choosing a few he might want to 'share' with her since he knew Nikita was extremely conscious of him today.

"I want this and this... please."

He could only smile.

Nikita chose two of the ones he would like the most: a caramel latte and a soft sponge cake with chocolate pieces. "I see. Let me go make the order, and I'll be right back, okay?"

"Nn!"

He used his enhanced senses to enjoy the sound of Nikita's racing heart, the sound of her breath increasing while she whispered about him being 'too sexy' and 'wanting to jump him' before they finished their date.

Many of the women in the store looked at Nikita, the short girl with an explosive figure and felt annoyed because her dress was a little short. Her muscular thighs were on display, along with her oversized breasts made it look a little too sensual compared to if someone else wore it.

'I don't think a year will pass before either of us takes the other to bed...' Nikolai thought while ordering his Macchiato with a double shot and a lemon cake, with some other treats that he knew Nikita would love.

While he was focused on the order and watching the lovely wolf acting strange, a female's voice sounded from behind him.

"E-excuse me, but could I get your number?"
