A Tale of Chase and Love s1

Some hours later, all four of them came back to the secluded room to see the party in full swing. All turned to look at them with expectations.

“Well, we settled,” Theresa declared, and cheers erupted from the others.

“Great!”

“That’s good to hear,”

“I bet you guys understand each other better now, huh?” Fu Jin sked.

Long Ren nodded and went to hug his grandpa.

“Grandpa, I will listen to you. From now on, I’m no longer demon lord. I’m just an ordinary fox who’s never seen the world.” he said happily.

“Whatever is in your heart that you’re sure is beneficial, no one stops you from doing it.” said Long Hua Ming as he hugged his only relative.

Whooosh!

A strong wind blew and a portal appeared behind Clark.

“The two moons of Luo Ye are separating.” Ju Wei said in realization.

Aarti walked to her daughter and hugged her tight. Clark and Marabelle also came over and took turns in hugging Theresa.

Ju Wei unexpectedly walked to Marabelle and begged her to follow him somewhere for a moment. She skeptically stared at him, but finally agreed with a nod from Clark.

Ju Wei then vanished with Marabelle, causing the others to shake their head in amusement.

************

Ju Wei appeared inside his room with Marabelle and then sat her on the bed.

“You… what do you want?” she asked unhappily.

“I…” he scratched his neck, nervously staring at her feet.

“Well, I just wanted to…” unable to complete his words, he decided to just follow his heart.

He hugged her and placed an old, crude ruby necklace around her neck. It was the necklace he crushed centuries ago when his parents died.

Marabelle pushed him away.

“What did you do? Who gave you permission to touch me?” she barked.

“Um… I’m sorry. You are going back to your planet. I don’t know if you will come back. I know my gift is crude but please… accept it and don’t lose it.” he hurried spoke his mind but she looked at him unhappily.

“I’m sorry. I was ashamed to give it to you in front of so many in the secluded room. I…”

“Well, you can keep this necklace to yourself, pervert!” she threw the necklace at him.

He caught it and stared at her with hurt in his eyes.

“What’s with such expression. It’s disgusting! If you got nothing relevant to say or show me, then let me go. I need to spend some quality time with my bestie.” she barked and got off the bed.

“I… please don’t leave just yet.” he showed her the crude necklace and knelt.

“Where is this going?” Marabelle thought.

“Please, take it with you. I’m begging you…”

She folded her hands.

“Give me one reason to take it,” she demanded.

“I… can’t tell you now.” he looked away from her.

“If you don’t want this necklace, how about a storage ring? It will still work on your planet. Please!” Ju Wei kept the necklace and took out a beautiful ring.

“Please take it,” he said.

“Fine!” she took it from him and threw it to the extreme of the room.

“I don’t want things from you. I asked you for just one reason and you failed. I’m off!” she stormed out of his room.

Ju Wei sat on the floor, looking sad and tired. He felt hopeless. What he feared had come to pass!

********

Marabelle came back to the secluded room with a smile.

She saw the vortex getting bigger and the wind stronger. Her smile faltered. She didn’t want to leave just yet. But her parents were waiting for her return.

She spent the last moments hugging Theresa and begged Long Ren and Bai Lu Chen to care of their mistress.

“She is safe with us, don’t worry.” Long Ren reassured, and Theresa’s parents and bestie stepped into the portal with tears and waving. Theresa also waved at them before the portal closed.

She hugged Fu Jin and cried. Long Ren sat on a chair and ate strawberries with the Taipan.

“Grandson, this is how you care for your mistress?” Long Hua Ming asked.

“If she needs us, we’ll be there, right?” he asked Bai Lu Chen who nodded while immersing himself in the sweetness of the berries.

Suddenly, Theresa’s eyes glowed with a red light, causing the two pets to spring to their feet.

“Mistress….”

“Brother Ren, Lu Chen, it’s Ju Wei…”

“What?” Long Ren immediately vanished.

The others did the same and appeared in Ju Wei’s room. They were shocked to see him crying and his whole body trembled.

“Ju Wei, what happened? Did she hurt you?” Long Ren asked as he ran over to him.

“Master, have they left?” Ju Wei asked in a hoarse voice.

“Yes, they have!” Long Ren replied.

“Then I guess…” he continued crying.

Theresa walked to him and patted his back.

“Ju Wei, please tell us what the problem is.”

“She is my destined other half. She turned me down before I could even ask her out. I knew this would happen someday. I’m a crook king. My body’s unclean. Even my lips are worse coz I’ve given so many heads to many men. I’m a cursed cut sleeve. I know I’m disgusting. I deserve it! I deserve it, alright!” he cried in agony.

The others felt pity for him.

“Brother, I’m so sorry about what my friend did. I didn’t know until now. And I think my bestie doesn’t really hate you. She’ll be back someday since she’s your mate.” Theresa reassured, but it didn’t help.

Ju Wei stood up and tried to walk towards Bai Lu Chen when suddenly his eyes widened.

“No! It can’t be now. I’m not ready.” he muttered.

“Ju Wei, what’s wrong with you?” Long Hua Ming asked.

“Are you…” Long Ren’s eyes widened too in realization of something.

“Ahhh!” Ju Wei cried, placing his hands on his genitals. He held them tightly and knelt coz he didn’t have enough strength to stand. The pain was much.

“Master, it hurts… pain!” he managed to say as his canines elongated. His eyes changed color to red and his hair became his original magenta color.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

His lips became blue, and he stared at Theresa.

“Please leave. I’m going to strip. I don’t want to ruin my clothes.” he begged with the little energy he had left.

“Alright!” she vanished.

Ju Wei begged Long Ren to help him take off his clothes, which he did until he was buck naked.

They looked at him who was continuously pressing against his jewels.

“Ahhhh!”

“Is this your first transformation?” Bai Lu Chen asked, but Long Ren shook his head.

“It’s his second. He shifted at 9.”
