Chapter 30: Bathing In The Hot Spring
Jennifer's POV:
Today was Valentine's Day, and it was the first Valentine's Day in my life that I truly enjoyed.
I spent the whole day wandering the streets with Prince Anthony.
He bought me roses and took me to eat my favorite strawberry cake.
I couldn't remember when the last time I had felt this happy was.
In return, I gifted the prince new underwear.
I couldn't forget his reaction when I told him what the gift was.
He looked a little taken aback, but he thanked me warmly.
In the evening, we went back to the cabin in the forest.
It was only yesterday that we had faced off against a group of vampires.
There were too many vampires in this area.
It seemed that things were not so simple.
In order to make sure that the vampires didn't cause trouble again, we decided to go back to the forest and inspect the whole area to see if there were any vampires that had escaped.
For werewolves, vampires were the worst enemies.
So, to ensure the safety of our species, we had to be cautious.
After returning to the cabin, I sank down on the sofa and stretched my arms.
"Mr.Jones, would you like to try on the underwear?"
I asked Anthony with a mischievous smile.
"Jennifer, do you need to remind me about the underwear again and again?"
His face turned pink, which I found quite interesting.
"Mr.Jones, I'm just worried that I bought the wrong size,"
I said in an aggrieved tone, pouting my lips.
"After all, it's the first gift that I've given you."
Hearing this, Anthony reluctantly walked into the room with the shopping bag.
I couldn't believe that he was really going to try on the underwear like I asked him to.
I couldn't help but burst out into laughter.
I didn't expect that the proud prince would also have a soft side.
After a while, he walked out of the room with a long face.
He threw a tag in front of me, pursing his lips with displeasure.
"Jennifer, do you really think this size would fit me?" Looking at the tag, I smiled awkwardly.
"I'm sorry, Mr.Jones, I don't know your size."
"Maybe you can find out."
Anthony suddenly put one hand on the backrest of the sofa and bent over me.
His voice was low and hoarse, with a magnetic charm that pulled me to him.
His warm breath sprayed on my face, making me shift nervously.
Our faces were so close to each other that I could see every pore on his skin.
Oh my God! Was this still the same prince that I knew? My heart was beating so fast that I was afraid it would jump out of my chest.
"Mr.Jones, I'm going out for a walk."
I stood up in a hurry and rushed to the door of the cabin, as if I was fleeing.
"Jennifer, where are you going?"
"I just want to look around nearby.Don't worry, Mr.Jones, I will protect myself.Please let me go out and practice alone."
I opened the door of the cabin and patted my chest to calm down my racing heart.In front of me lay the dense forest, lit up only by the dying light of the setting sun.
"Be careful.If you are in danger, ask me for help."
Anthony's voice came from inside the cabin.
I looked back and nodded at him.
He just stayed in the cabin, not making a move to follow me.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
I didn't know what was going on in his mind now.
But these days, he always made my heart beat wildly.
After getting out of the cabin, I inspected the path the whole way, not daring to slack off for even a split- second.
At the same time, I fanned my face, which was terribly hot.
Ever since the intimacy in the cave last night, the atmosphere between me and the prince was somehow different.
Even his attitude towards me seemed to have changed.
Although I kept reminding myself that he and I could never have a future together, I still couldn't resist his charm.
Every time I recalled how he had taken a silver bullet for me, I couldn't calm down.
How could I not be moved by a man who had risked his life to save me? These were the thoughts that plagued my head as walked through the forest, while keeping an eye on the surroundings.
Suddenly, I found a beautiful natural hot spring pool not far away.
The hot spring pool was steaming, and the water was very clear.
I didn't expect that there would be a hot spring in this forest, and it was a pleasant surprise.
I quickly walked over and tested the temperature of the water with my hand.
It turned out to be perfectly warm.
There was no hot water in the cabin, so I had been worrying about how to take a shower.
Luckily, I happened to find this hot spring pool.
Since I had come across it, I decided to take a bath here before going back to the cabin.
I looked around the area once more and found nothing unusual.
After that, I quickly took off my clothes and sank into the hot spring pool, letting the water cover my body up to my shoulders and wash away my fatigue.
In the comforting warmth of the water, I raised my wrists and leisurely played with the water.
I hadn't felt this relaxed in a long time.
The happiness in my heart made me hum to myself.
Anthony POV: After returning to the cabin, Jennifer volunteered to inspect the surroundings.
I didn't want to let her take such a risk, but she was right about needing some practice.
Besides, I believed in her ability.
She would only grow stronger through real-life practice.
After Jennifer left, my mind kept going back to the way she blushed in front of me just now.
She had a lovely face and an even lovelier demeanor.
Looking at the red roses on the table, I remembered how happy Jennifer was to hold them as we walked down the streets.
The memory brought a smile to my face.
As time went by, however, I began to get restless with worry.
Jennifer still hadn't come back to the cabin yet.
Could she have come across a vampire? Damn it! This forest was so dangerous.
I shouldn't have let her go out alone.
I couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
After taking a look at my watch, I decided to go out to look for her. novelbin
These days, whenever it came to Jennifer, I couldn't stay calm at all.
Staying calm in any situation was one of my best qualities, but I seemed to forget it whenever Jennifer was in trouble.
I quickened my pace as I looked for her.
Her scent lingered in the air, so I just followed it.
Soon, I arrived at a hot spring pool, where I could hear the sound of water, as if there was someone inside.
Sure enough, as I walked closer, I saw Jennifer bathing in the pool.
The sight in front of my eyes knocked the breath out of me.
Jennifer was submerged in the hot spring pool, which was shrouded in mist.
Her skin was fair against the water, and her face was slightly red from the warmth.
She looked as beautiful as an angel that had fallen from heaven.
She didn’t seem to notice my presence and continued to enjoy bathing in the hot spring.
I couldn't bear to interrupt her happiness, nor did I want to peep at ner like this, so I turned around to leave.
As long as Jennifer was fine, nothing else mattered.
Even after I took a few steps, the ethereal scene just now continued to fill my mind.
Ever since I was a child, I had never been interested in any she-wolf.
I didn't understand why I was so attracted to Jennifer.
At this time, a strange smell drifted to me.
it was not the smell of werewolves.
Was it possible that it was the smell of a vampire? I stopped in my tracks at once and perked up my ears, listening carefully.
I heard a rush of footsteps from not far away.
And these footsteps were getting closer and closer to us.
From the sound, I could estimate that were even more vampires than we had come across yesterday.
I still hadn't fully recovered from my injury.
Obviously, we were no match for them.
I wanted to get Jennifer out of here, but she was naked in the hot spring right now, so it was unrealistic for me to pull her out just like that.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer.
I couldn't put Jennifer in danger.
There was only way to tackle this to hide temporarily and act in accordance with the changing circumstances.
Taking a deep breath, I walked right into the hot spring pool.
I kept my footsteps light for fear of alerting the enemies.
