Office Romance with a Werewolf

"How do I look?" Nida asked Randell while she made a turn to show off the best dress she could see in her closet.

The peach-colored maxi dress, which is ankle length and made with a flowy fabric, dances with her in her slow spinning.

She stopped spinning and her bright smile disappeared once she noticed Randell didn't look impressed.

"Why? Do I look weird? "

"No is just that..." Randell hesitated on his word, but Nida's glare made him continue. "You wore that dress last week when we went to the resort. You look so pretty, as always, but are you sure you are going to wear that again? And don't wear heels; we will be walking a lot. "

"You should have told me that I already wore it before I acted like a fool, spinning like crazy here!"

"It was just like a week ago. How can you forget? "

"Whatever! I'm changing! " She ran back to her bed room to change. 

They haven't started their date yet, but their bickering is all set.

"How will I remember? It wasn't me who dated you last week," She mumbled as she searched for a new dress to wear.

"How about this?" She went out of her room to show him her light blue A-line dress paired with sneakers, but of course she showed it to him less energetically. 

"That's perfect." He approached her and hugged her, then kissed her on the forehead. "You look pretty, as always."

He was about to kiss her on the lips, but she immediately blocked him with her hand.

"Wymmdyohaymkissimnowdays." Randell spoke while her hand was still on her lips, asking why she hates kissing nowadays.

Nida moved away and gestured for him to hurry out, avoiding his question.

"Come on, hurry, I want to see the baby animals!" she excitedly said.

Randell just smiled at her energy and followed her out of her apartment. 

They travel two hours just to see the animals at the zoo.

Finally, we are here! Nida shouted the moment she got out of Randell's car, ignoring the people who looked at her weirdly. 

"Stop being loud." Randell grabbed her mouth and pulled her along to enter the zoo.

"So this is what tickets look like? Can I keep it?"

While waiting for Randell to come out of the rest room, Nida excitedly looked at the cute zoo entrance tickets. They have been on the road. That is why they need to empty their bladders.

"Ah, right. Even though I keep this, I won't be able to bring this back to reality," she said with low energy once she realized that everything was fake. "Oh! At least I can experience this now! "

Her mood shifted weirdly, going up and down.

The two entered the zoo and interacted with the animals that they rarely see inside the city.

"Seeing animals here is therapeutic, but I wonder if they feel the same way." She commented while she fed a donkey with vegetables. 

"Feel what?"

"If they feel happy too, that means they are here."

"Of course they won't, but still they'd be thankful."

"Why do you say so?"

"In my opinion, they won't feel happy without freedom, but they'll be thankful that someone is taking care of their food and health."

"Is that so?" Nida looked stunned at the donkey with a serious expression.

"Don't look at us like that, bitch!"

"Huh? You can talk? Ranz! The donkey called me a bitch! " She pushed the vegetable too close to the donkey's face to make it talk again.

"HAHA Hey! Donkey, why did you call my girlfriend bitch?" Of course, Randell didn't take her word seriously.

"Hey! I really heard him talk. Hey! Donkey speak again! " She was about to touch the donkey, but Randell grabbed her away from the donkey.

"Hey, be careful, he might bite you." He let go of the vegetables and drags Nida away from the donkeys.

"I really heard him call me a bitch."

"Yeah, yeah, I'll beat him for you later."

Nida just pouted because Randell wouldn't believe her. She just raised her middle finger towards the donkey before they could go away.

Their date at the zoo went smoothly, even though Nida kept hearing the voices of the animals.

"This is annoying," she said as they rested their legs from walking around.

"What is it?"

"Their appearance is all cute and adorable, but their words are too foul to hear."

She grumbled as she got dissatisfied on her first visit to the zoo in a long time.

Strangely, she can understand the animals' language. To her surprise, the animals all talk in a vicious and burglary manner.

'Is this the effect of suppressing their freedom?'

She shook off her thoughts of the zoo animals while rubbing the stuffed toy that they bought at the souvenir shop.

"Anyway, I've been wanting to ask you this: why do you wear perfume?" She asked since she could not smell his usual baby cologne.

"Hmm? Why? It's you who chose this perfume. Does this not suit me anymore? " Randell sniffed himself to check.

"Ah, it's me," she quickly said, while thinking about the version of herself in this parallel world. "She's a lucky girl."

"Who?"

"Nida Mildea." She said her name bluntly, then stood up from the bench while the stuffed toy was in her arms.

"Come on, let's not waste our time here! Let's eat lunch, then let's go for a thrill ride! "

Like a normal couple, the two enjoy their day trying out various things they should do.

Nida enjoys her time with Randell as if she had forgotten all her problems and issues.

"An outdoor movie?"

"Yes, I saw there's an outdoor movie, the one we pass by before we go to the zoo."

"How about our plan to go to the pool?"

"Let's do that tomorrow. I want to try the outdoor movie! I've never been into one before."

Randell is the one more excited than Nida. He thought it was more romantic to go watch a movie than to play around the pool at night.

"Hmmn, okay? but can we just go there without booking it?" 

"They allow walk-ins, so there's no problem as long as there's still a free slot."

"Okay." Nida just agreed with him since it's rare for him to insist on what he wants since he has been following what Nida wants.

They hurriedly drive to the large park where the outdoor movie date will be taking place.

At the entrance, they bought a ticket that comes along with popcorn and other concession tags and tickets.

"Woah, some of them brought convertible cars." Nida commented as she felt envious of the prepared couples who brought convertible cars to watch the match.

"They can't do things openly if they have their roof open. unless they are too bold to do so." Randell shared while he fixed his car at their spot.

"Do what?" Nida innocently asked.

"Ehem! those things that lovers do. "

"Like what?"

"That..." Randell just clapped his hand lightly and slowly enough, that Nida instantly understood.

"You! Is this the reason you brought me here? " She lightly hit him on his arm because her face instantly turns red once she gets what he is saying.

"Ah haha, of course, I won't do things if you won't agree, but.." he leant forward to her, then whispered in a sexy tone. "If you do want to, just tell me."

"You naughty!" She hit him multiple times, then she rubbed her ears since she could still feel the tingly feeling from Randell's whispers.

"Haha, I am just saying."

Though Nida was hitting him, she couldn't help but smile and laugh as well.

They only stop teasing each other when they hear the opening credits of the movie.

"Vampire movie?" She asked since she's not the one who chose the movie.

"Yes, it's too bad there's no werewolf movie available. But I heard the second lead there is a werewolf. "

"This is fine. Why look for a werewolf movie?"

"Ah, I thought you were looking for a werewolf these days."

"No, I prefer humans more."

"What?"

"Nothing."

The movie is quite interesting in that the two become more focused on the screen than on one another, unlike the couples in the other cars that are now doing their own heated scenes.

"The werewolves here are too lame."

"Huh? Didn't you see how violent they are? "

"A real werewolf doesn't run like that? Did the director mistake them for monkeys?"

"Haha, why did you see a real one?"

"Yes," she bluntly responded, while filling her mouth with popcorn.

Now that she knows how the real werewolves look like, she thinks the movies are too unrealistic.

"Hmmn. full moon?" Nida noticed the bright, beautiful full moon.

"Ack!" She groans as Nida feels a strange chest pain.

"What's wrong?" Randell asked while he offered her a bottle of water, thinking she might get choked from the popcorn.

"O-open the window, I—I can't breathe!"

"N-Nida!" 

Nida got out of the car because she was really suffocating and having a strange pain in her chest. She still had a hard time gasping for air as she raised her head and saw the full moon.

'Why do I feel like the moon is calling me?'

She raised her arms to act like she was grabbing the moon, but she noticed something weird with her hands.

She moved her hand closer to her to check on it more.

"C-claws?" Her eyes shake as she confusingly sees her hands growing claws and fur.

"W-what is happening to me?" She fell down to the ground while still looking at her arms.

"Nida! What's wrong? " Randell tried to get her off the ground because her dress would get dirty, but she pushed him away.

"Get away from me!" 

She doesn't know what is going on, but she saw this scene a long time ago.

She looked at her reflection in the car and she could see the growing silver fur and her light blue dress slowly stretching out because her body was slowly growing larger and her sneakers were ripped too.

"Go away!" She shouted as she tried to bury her hand in the ground that was becoming sharp due to her claws. While her fangs, She hurt herself due to her resisting the howl.

"What is this? Is this a prank? Hey!"

Randell didn't leave her side and continued to check on her. He even wrapped his jacket around her shoulder since her dress had finally given up holding on to her wolf-muscled body.

"Let everyone - leave - this place!" She cannot talk properly because she is still working hard not to be taken over by the weird urge to hurt someone.

AWWWWWOOOOOOO

She couldn't resist any longer, and she finally made her first holy howl.

She could no longer control her body. She was still aware of the surroundings, but she felt a weird emotion that made her want to grab someone's flesh.

GGGRRRRRRR

She growled, and her werewolf self started to develop a deep angry face.

"Nida. Stop scaring me. This prank is too much." Randell said as he tried to approach her again.

Slash!

"Huh? Nida? " Randell froze once he saw his shoulder bleeding.

"Nida why?"
