Chapter 86
Roxanne, who was initially started by the question, smiled. It was just like her mother to ask such
questions. That was also probably one of the reasons Rita left, so she could talk to her mother.
“I feel… Amazing, it’s indescribable. There’s this rush in me! It can’t be put into words. But, what’s
with this hunger I’m feeling?” Roxanne started.
Melissa smiled softly and shook her head.
“Why else would you be hungry? You’ve not eaten today, right?” Melissa answered.
“Yeah, but it’s just been how long? I’ve never felt this starved. It’s just the next morning, isn’t it?”
Roxanne commented.
"Well, I suppose I'll have to correct you about two things," Rita said.
"First, this is 2:34 in the afternoon. Meaning, you’ve slept throughout the morning" Melissa said,
glancing over to a clock behind Roxanne.
“W-Whhhaaaaatttt?!” Roxanne let out with shock.
“Yes. So you see, it’s been a while since you’ve eaten.” Melissa added.
“B-But still, I’ve never felt this way. I’ve skipped morning meals before and I’ve never even gotten a
stomach grumble.” Roxanne protested slightly.
“Haha hahaha” Melissa laughed at her daughter's naivete.
“Oh, Roxanne… You can’t compare your energy from back then to now. The gap is just too wide.
“W-What…?!”
“Your body consumes far more energy than it previously did. How do you think those special
features work? Super strength, agility, heightened senses… What do you think runs them? It’s energy.”
Melissa explained.
Ah, I see. That was unexpected…” Roxanne smiled nervously.
“Come to think of it, I overheard that I passed out before the ceremony ended… Am I safe?”
Melissa listened to her daughter’s words with rural calm, realising what she had to do.
”You are, in fact, you did better than I expected. You showed outstanding results and no… There is
no problem!" Melissa assured her.
“Then why did I-“ She wanted to say
"That's because you've run out of energy. That's why I told you to eat as much as you could and
rest before the Awakening. Out of all the werewolf Abilities, transforming is the most exhausting. It put
a heavy strain on the body, and since it was even your first time, you could barely handle it.
“A-Ah… I see…” Roxanne muttered.
“I'm happy you went through with it though. After you fainted, there wasn’t much to do, really. I just
packed our things up and we brought you back to the house…" Melissa said
“We?” Roxanne asked.
“Y-Yeahhh… About that…'' Melissa said with a guilty look.
“WHAAAAATTT?!!!!” Roxanne let out a scream.
“What do you mean Asher took me back to the house?”
Melissa regretted telling her about how Asher appeared out of nowhere and offered to help with
carrying Roxanne while she packed everything else up.
“You mean, he actually saw me in that state? He saw me n-n-naked?!”
“No, he didn’t. After you fainted, you transformed back to your human form. I covered you with a
blanket before he arrived to offer his assistance.” Melissa explained.
“O-Oh… B-But still, how would he have known about our while mishap if he wasn’t watching us
from wherever he stayed? There’s no way he just happened to be in the area when I fainted. He was
clearly watching us, that stalker. I knew it!” Roxanne said with clenched teeth, displaying anger.
She said that, but she felt the opposite of that. Her heart began to beat faster at the thought of
Asher holding her in his arms. She imagined it in her head, how she would look so helpless and
delicate in his broad chest and capable blossom.
“Whaaaat?! What the hell am I thinking?” She screamed at herself as her face turned red.
Her heart kept beating faster at an uncontrollable state. Images of Asher, thoughts of Asher kept
flashing through her mind. What was this madness?
"It looks like it's finally starting," Melissa said, noticing Roxanne's irrational behaviour.
"Hey, guys, what's up? I heard Roxanne screaming." Rita said, returning to the living room.
She paused as she witnessed Roxanne's reddened face and brightly lit eyes. Rita smiled when
she saw this and realised what was happening.
“You're thinking about Asher, aren’t you?” Rita commented.
“H-How do you…?!” Roxanne said in surprise.
She stared at Melissa and Rita, they both smoked at her knowingly. They understood what was
happening to her, and if she was being honest with herself, so did she.
“Nico way… Don't tell me I’m actually…”
“Yes, you are!”
“Yep!”

Roxanne was finally feeling it, the strange connection weaved by fate which Melissa and Rita kept
talking to her about… She was beginning to long for Asher.
