Office Romance with a Werewolf

"What should I do?"

Nida is pacing back and forth in front of Daniel's sister's room. It is where she made him rest since his room was locked.

She has already given him medicine and taken care of his sweat and feverish body.

Daniel's fever is still high, but he is not shaking like before. He is also now in deep sleep. That may mean that he is not in danger anymore, but it doesn't mean that she can leave him behind.

She doesn't want to leave, but her only opportunity to be free from being targeted by wolves will be gone if she doesn't go now and meet Angel.

"What should I do?" She keeps repeating her words as her steps double from pacing back and forth.

Ring, ring, ring.

She finally stopped once her phone rang.

"Ma'am Angel!" She exclaimed as soon as she picked up her phone. She didn't know what to do. That is why she was relieved that Angel was calling her, but she immediately frowned the moment she realized that she had never added Angel's number to her contact list.

"How? When did you save your number to my phone? "

"Secret." Angel mischievously replied. 

"That is not important. I thought you had decided to help me. Why aren't you here yet? The werewolves are already gathered and having a great time. "

Something came up. I don't think I can come, Ma'am Angel. "

"Why? Can't you leave the dark priest and come here instead? "

"H-how did you know?" Nida was surprised by Angel's way of gathering information; it was as if she had an eye almost everywhere.

"That is not important now; just heal him now and come here."

"I can't heal him, ma'am." She responded dejectedly because she was frustrated with her lack of knowledge and skills in using his abilities.

She can't even have the chance to use her powers for good. She thinks she has only used it to destroy things.

"Why?"

"I don't know how."

You don't know? Then I'll teach you."

"You know how to use divine magic?"

"Not really, but I am well versed in magic power. I think divine and magic powers follow the same principle. Just try it; there's nothing to lose if it's not effective. "

"OK," she replied quickly, because Nida was becoming scared and skeptical of the idea of Angel, but she decided to follow her anyway because she believed Angels were harmless.

"Go to him and surround him with your dust."

"Okay."

Nida went inside the room again and followed what Angel was instructing.

"Done. Next?"

"I'll be sending you a text. It's a prayer. You just need to speak those words perfectly. It's similar to chanting. Remember, you can't stutter because it may affect him badly. "

"Whom am I praying to? Why am I praying? Do I really need to pray? "

"You're a weird priestess. What else should a priestess do? Of course, you need to chant a prayer. "

"But I really don't know."

"Figure it out for yourself. Wendell is coming here. Just come back here after you're done. I'm hanging up now. "

The call ended, leaving Nida confused about what she should do.

Beep, beep, beep

Nida checked her phone again as she received the message from Angel that she should be chanting.

"What language is this? Do I really need to chant this? "

She tries to read the text, but the words are beyond her comprehension.That is why she is quite unsure about pronouncing the words.

Even with doubt, she still controlled her dust to surround Daniel and chanted the text sent by Angel.

"Pabayai an sinda madakop sa mga dayo haliun, gabay sa mga dayo haliun. Dai na sana, pabayai na" sugpuon.

After she chanted the words, black smoke came out of Daniel's mouth. That made her think that it was a sign that he had finally healed.

"Daniel! Daniel! Are you fine now? " She brightly woke him up, but his pale face and hot temperature were still the same.

"Did I cast it wrong?"

She checked the text message again, but it was all gone. Even the call history of their conversation is gone, as if it never happened.

"What happened? What was that? What now? " She panics as she is not sure of what she has done.

She was about to get out of the room to not disturb Daniel's rest, but suddenly Daniel got up and grabbed her wrist.

"I am thankful that you didn't leave me behind, but what did you do?" 

Still, with a weak body, he only held her for a second, then went back to laying down while breathing heavily.

"Why would I even leave that state?"

Daniel felt relieved with her statement and asked her again. What did you do? I felt something was cast on me, "

"Seriously? Do you feel better? " She perked up. She hoped that her casting would at least make him feel better, even if only for a little while.

"It is not healing power."

"It's not? Then you're still sick. "

"Yes, I am. What the hell did you do? Don't randomly experiment with your power! "

"I didn't randomly do it! Madam Angel thought I did! "

"Angel? She can not use divine power! How the hell can she teach you how to divine powers? "

Daniel, with his weak and heavy body, forced himself to get up by pulling Nida into her collar.

"Don't tell me you're going to ask me to fix your trouble while I am this sick." Daniel asked as their faces closed the distance to one another. Nida just awkwardly avoided his gaze and pulled his body away from him. Daniel just laid back on the bed and continued to breath heavily as his fever got worse again.

"I won't! Just rest there. I'll figure out what happened."

She pulled out the blanket and covered Daniels up to his neck.

Nida actually stripped off his clothes, leaving only his boxers on.

He is covered in sweat and his past is dirty from sitting on the ground. That made her think that maybe his dislike of dirt may have affected his recovery. That is why she removes his clothes but can't find a change of clothes.

Daniel doesn't trust her ability to solve problems, but he also cannot do anything since he is really weak.

Nida watched her settle down for a minute, and then she clasped her hands together while she closed her eyes.

Her dust re-appears again and swirls around her.

"Hey, dust!" She starts to talk to her dust again while seriously clasping her hands together as if she is praying, but she is not praying to anyone. Instead, she tries to communicate with her dust. She knows that it comes from the soul of the wolf, which is why she hopes the dust will understand her.

"Can you help me heal Daniel? Please? I owe him a lot. Please help me heal him. " She repeatedly begs the dust to help her.

The dust stopped swirling around her and soon started to cover Daniel's body again.

"You're assisting me, right?" she asked, letting go of her clasped hands and looking at him intently.

After her dust disappeared, she happily touched Daniel's face.

"Your complexion looks better!"

Daniel opened his eyes at the sudden change in his body state.

"You can use healing powers?"

"I can't do it willfully, but my dust helped me. Did we do a good job? "

"You're talking as if your powers are alive and can think on their own." Daniel sneered at Nida's way of describing her powers.

"They really have their own will. Why? Does your black smoke not communicate with you? "

"Of course not, where can you even see a person who can speak? "

"But I think my dust really had its own will! Nida exclaimed. "Goddess Mila, showed me that my silver dust is from the soul of a dead werewolf or wolf."

"Hmm? Really? Your powers are really unique compared to mine, and the other priestess doesn't have them, unlike yours.

Daniel tried to get up, and soon he realized that he was not wearing anything but just his boxers.

"Nida. Why did you strip me naked? " He asked and glared at her with suspicion.

"Hey! Hey! It's not what you think! "

"Then what is it?" Daniel covered his body with his blanket and looked at her as if she was a pervert.

"You're all sweaty and filthy, and I figured the clean freak would get sicker if you stayed dirty."

She explained, but his face became more agitated.

"What the fuck did you do to my body?" Daniel suddenly stood up and looked at her angrily.

"What? Why are you so angry? I didn't do anything to your body! " She became confused by Daniel's reaction and pulled him down the bed to sit again and check on him to see if he really was better, which he was not. He can only get up and has the strength to talk now, but there is still a sign of weakness on his part.

"No! Why did you cast a repelling spell on my body? " Daniel shouted as soon as he realized what Nida had first done before she successfully healed him.

"The wolf will be in danger!"
