"Isn't this awkward?" Galen asked as Verena continued to try her best, acting as if she couldn't hear or feel his presence when the two of them had been standing side by side for the past ten minutes. "You can talk to me; I won't harm you. You know that, right?"The two of them have spent time together, roaming around the mall. The guys were able to convince Verena to take a day off and use their time to buy what Zoren needs at the mall. The first thing that the prince wanted was a new set of clothes, and of course, as his follower, Galen couldn't reject him. All they had to do was drive to the nearest mall and grab all the expensive-looking stuff off the mannequins, and Zoren would be happy. He did not like the number of people walking near him still, but he appreciated the classy and fresh-smelling clothes."Verena, you can talk to me; he won't hear you from here," Galen whispered. "I saw his fitting room; there is a really loud speaker behind it. I think he won't be able to hear an

Verena grabbed the last box of freshly picked apples with all her power to get them inside her house. She had to use her whole body and power to grab everything she could in order to get all the delivered goods in her house into her kitchen. Looking at everything that she had arranged on the small table, she sighed."When am I going to finish all these?" she asked. "I don't have that much appetite; I'm not going to finish this even after three weeks." She sighed as she looked back once more. "I can't even get these into the fridge!"Verena looked at her whole house. The kitchen was filled with so many groceries that they wouldn't even stay on the cabinets and shelves. She cad to put the one sack of onions by the broom and the one sack of potatoes next to her fridge. Beside that, she has three more sacks filled with rice, garlic, and flour. Whatever she can think of, Verena is sure that she has it all. She never expected that she would have five kilos of sugar and salt in her pantry. B

"I know that I told you about wanting to know more of this world, Galen, but what the hell am I doing in a place like this?"Zoren's eyes were fixed on the huge Ferris wheel decorated with glowing lights, which was spinning nonstop. It's making him feel things, mostly bad things. It kept on making him want to throw up for some reason, and he hated it."Hey, don't be weird," Galen said, pouting. "Within my years of being here, this is my most favorite spot. The carnival!""This is nothing but torture; are you kidding me?" The werewolf scoffed. "I could barely hear my own thoughts; my ears are ringing! I can't pinpoint what it is that I am smelling; everything is mixing with everything else! Look at how many people are here; I can avoid all of them!""Of course, this is a carnival, Zoren; people come here to have fun!""It's not looking so fun.""It will be fun soon, so don't worry."They continued to walk; Zoran was forced, but it was all good since Galen skipped on his every step and

Verena stood still under the umbrella tree where they all met up. Thirty minutes later, she still can't connect with Galen or Zoren. Earlier, it was Galen not picking up his phone, but now she literally can't contact him since he's out of reach. It was stressing her out. Maybe a little too much, since every single person that passed her gave her a weird look. They seem to think that she's losing her mind or that she's intoxicated because of how much she's pacing back and forth and being too agitated and anxious."I have to tell you something, Zoren, please: where the hell did you go?" She whispered to no one but the wind around her. She then looked around and could still see their faces.She was about to leave the spot and try to lurk around other booths where she still hasn't gone, but she was stopped by three men who walked straight into her."Woah there, if you take another step, you'd literally jump into my arms!"She winced, hearing the most disgusting pick-up line that year. Ver

"Are you sure that it was the woman’s ability that you experienced?" Galen was skeptical upon hearing Verena’s story about how she was able to see a vision because of a fortune teller’s help. "To be honest, that’s quite difficult for me to believe," he added. "I don’t think that woman is capable of showing you what’s going to happen in the future; she might be a fake witch, trying to show off just so she could scam poor-minded people for money while manipulating their hopes and dreams.""No, Galen, I understand where you’re coming from, and believe me, I had the same exact thought at first," she explained as she leaned closer to the driver while she sat in the back seat with Zoren, who was listening to the two argue. "I was thinking that I was about to be hussled, like I was going to leave the place without getting anything in return! However, I experienced it!" she said, hitting Galen by the shoulder. "I saw it all with my own eyes, well, I think! Ah!"She took a deep breath, still f
