Office Romance with a Werewolf

"See what?" she asked, to confirm if she had heard it wrong.

"Nipples maniac," he said in response.

Daniel squeezed her cheeks roughly so that her cheeks turned red.

"What are you two doing?" Randell asked.

He was done wearing the weirdly unmatching attire given to him and approached the two.

"Hmmm?" She stared at Randell's body again. That made Daniel pull her head again.

"What do you keep looking for?" Daniel asked since he finally realized that she wasn't looking at the timid Randell with perverted eyes.

"Life is truly unfair."

Suddenly, she looks disappointed.

"I agreed with that, but why?"

The two men in front of her were puzzled at what she was saying.

"Handsome faces really make any outfit look good." She raised her hand and formed her hand as if she were taking a picture of the two handsome men in front of her.

Nida was expecting to laugh at Randell after fitting into the clothes, but he still looked good, even though he was wearing unmatched bright colored clothes, but it didn't look weird on him and he suddenly got idol vibes.

Then she adds Daniel to the picture of the unjustly good-looking men since, even with messy hair and dirty clothes, he still looks handsome. In her opinion, he looks more daring with his messy look than with his usual neat look.

Daniel ended up brushing his fingers across Nida's face to stop her weird thinking.

"Let's go," he said as he led the way out of the office.

Everyone looked at them once they walked by the crowded areas on the way to the parking area.

Some gasped in shock because they could see the clean freak in a messy state.

Some even took photos. Daniel just lets them be because he is too tired to deal with other things.

"I'll drive, sir." Randell volunteered.

"Sure," he says as he hands Randell his key and takes a seat in the back of the car.

"Why are you sitting there?" Nida asked.

"I'm too exhausted, just sit on the front." He shooed Nida away from entering the back seat.

"Barangay Dimahanap, Talikod Street." Daniel let Randell know their destination.

Daniel's plan is to rest while they're on the way to his god's temple. He's sure that his lord will roll-out in laughter once he personally sees his messy state.

grhrh rrr rrr rrr

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"The car won't start, sir."

"What do you mean it won't start?" Then he scowls. He leans forward to see what's wrong.

"What do you mean? It's a full tank."

Randell tried to start the car again, but it only made a weird noise.

"Your car looks new, but it's already broken."

"What do you mean it looks new? It is new! How come this is not working?"

He got off the car and changed places with Randell.

grughj grerrrrhh

"What's wrong with this."

Wrinkles appeared on his forehead as he checked on his car.

"Let's just take your car, Randell." Nida suggested.

Daniel didn't disagree, so that he wouldn't consume his time with another useless chat.

"Barangay Dimahanap, Talikod Street, sir?" He repeated the addresses to confirm if it was the right place.

"Yes."

Finally, the three of them can leave and go to the Dark God's temple.

"Ah!! Wait!" she exclaimed.

"What is it again?" Daniel irritably complained to Nida.

"It's past lunch break! our manager will look for us! We can't leave the office without permission ! It's still office hours!" Daniel looked at her with surprise.

"How can you think about work when we are supposed to be going to fix yourself."

"I don't want to here anything from manager when we back. I really hate talking in front him. You met my manager right?"

"Ah that pig like manager. I get what you mean. He sprayed the person he is talking to with his saliva."

By just imagining it makes the two cringe in disgust.

Nida pulled out her phone and called her manager.

"Hi Sir! I would like to inform you that I won't be working this afternoon. I have menstrual cramps, I'm on my way home now. I am sorry for leaving early. " She speaks on the phone as if she is really in pain.

"Oh my, get well soon. How will you come home? commute?"

After hearing her manager's response, Nida stared at her phone, checking if she had dialed the right number.

She felt strange about her manager acting considerate.

Is this his real nature?

She asked herself since the manager she knew was usually mad and not approachable.

Is this the effect of removing the Genie's magic. "

Actually, Randell is with me. He will drive me home, sir.""

Oh, that's good. Okay, rest well."

toot tooot toooot

"He's fine with my absence?" She still doubts what happened and confirms it to Randell.

Randell just nodded his head and just kept driving.

ggggrrrhh gghrhrhrh

The car suddenly made a strange noise as well.

"What's going on." she said as she felt iffy, wondering why their car kept on breaking down.

Randell pulled over to the side of the road to check on the car.

"There's nothing wrong with the car." Randell said after checking under the car's hood.

"Then why is it making weird noises?"

"I don't know. My car isn't old either."

"Let me see." Either way, it was Daniel who checked up on the car, the same with Randell, there is nothing to repair because nothing is broken.

The three of them exchanged short glances at one another and thought the same thing in unison: they were being hunted.

"Do you feel any spirits playing around with us?" Daniel asked Nida.

"No. I still don't know what spirits look like."

Nida could only identify the creature she had only seen once. But evil spirits never bothered her, it was always the wolves.

"I don't either."

"You don't? Then we are not being hunted? So what is this then? Your cars are just coincidentally broken on the same day?

"Shut up for a moment. Nida, I'll try to see if I can now teleport."

While standing, he closed his eyes and meditated for a moment before letting out a sigh.

Teleporting Sir Rudy and Wendell drained Daniels' powers.

He needs to rest to replenish it, but their current situation is not helping with his replenishment.

"I still can't." he said.

"Shall we take the train?" Nida suggested.

"I guess we can, the train station is walking distance from here." Randell added.

Haaaaa—

"So this time I'll be walking." With low energy, Daniel felt extra tired just thinking about walking.

"Shall I carry you on my back, sir?"

Randell's suggestion makes him look more exhausted.

"I won't like piggybacking on another man's back." He refuses the offer. Because of his pride, he will never ride on someone's back. He will never want to experience such embarrassment.

"You don't like men? Why? Should I carry you instead."

"Nida, you're not helping at all." He brushed his fingers across her face once more.

Randell secured his car on the road first before leaving it alone, and then the three of them took the train to reach the near yet faraway temple.

eeeeeeeeekkkkkkkkkkkk

"What is it again!" Daniel exclaimed in frustration.

"Don't tell me the train is broken too?" Nida asked.

"What's going on."

"Announcement commuters! We apologize for the sudden stop of the train. There were sudden mechanical difficulties with the train's engine. Because the repairs will take some time, we ask that everyone stay inside the train and wait patiently. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience as we asked for your understanding. Thank you."

"Aaaa, seriously?" The three of them just stared at the speaker phone attached to the train wall.

"Are you sure you can't feel any evil spirits? This is too much for being such a coincidence!"

"I still don't sense any evil spirits. What's wrong with our luck today."

"Let's get out of here first. The crowd really makes me dizzy."

"Ah! I forgot you were a clean freak!"

"too late for you to realize."

Tap!

Daniel can easily open the locked train door with a single tap.

"So which way is the temple?"

His head feels light, maybe because he never had the chance to rest.

"Daniel, should we rest for a moment?" she asked, noticing the fatigue on his face. A moment ago, she was messing up with him since he seemed fine, but as of now, he doesn't look good and is obviously exhausted.

"Where do you think we will rest in such a place?"

She looks around and sees that only the railroad, the not-moving train, and trees are around the area.

"Over there! There's a waiting shed over there. " She pointed to the far most end of the railroad.

The two men with her squinted their eyes to see what Nida was pointing at, which she believed was a shed.

"Are you exhausted too? There's nothing there."

"I can carry you on my back, Nida, if you are tired?"

"Come on, what's wrong with your eyes? The shed is too close. Come on, let's rest there. I'll try to transfer some of my divine powers too, so you can be back to health."

"Do you even know how?"

"I don't. I'll figure it out."

The three of them slowly walked down the railroad to reach the shed Nida was talking about.

"Ah!" Daniel almost fell from tripping on the rail.

"Sir, there's no one here. You can ride on my back."

"Don't be shy, Danny."

"Are you teasing me even with a time like this?"

"Nope. Just use his back. He's strong."

He finally agreed to be piggyback, which made Nida smile from ear to ear.

"Aw, you look cute together!"

"Stop teasing me."

"Oops. Okay, sorry." Nida walked faster than the two to hide her grin.

"I'm not teasing you, but honestly, you two look go—" She halted and raised her hand in the air.

"Fog in the afternoon?" she asked, noticing the sudden appearance of fog.

"Does fog usually appear in the afternoon? It's not even cold. This is weird, right?" She looked back since the two men wouldn't respond or make a sound.

"Huh?"

The fog on her back is so thick that she can't see the two anymore.

"Daniel?." she asked as she entered the fog to get back to the two.

"Randell?"

No one was responding, and the silent place made her voice echo loudly.

"Hey! Come out! This is not funny!"
