That Girl Is Trouble

Her beautiful laugh stunned Aiden, he almost didn't blink. All his life he always thought that there would be no woman more beautiful than Eleanor, the Elf princess who was the first love of his life.

He always kept his heart for Eleanor and he hoped that even this time, the feelings he had guarded for years would remain intact.

Seeing Aiden suddenly fall silent like this made Azura confused. She wondered if Aiden was angry with her again? She realized that Aiden was not as bad as she initially thought when they first met at Jacob's palace. Even though he was a little rough and harsh, Aiden had a soft side that made her feel comfortable and feels like home.

"Did I make a mistake again, Aiden? I'm sorry because I caused you trouble." She said while touching Aiden's arm with her hand.

Aiden took a breath, he was uncomfortable if Azura was gentle with him like this. He was afraid that Azura's gentleness would awaken the wild side in him. He knew how bad he was at controlling himself and he didn't want that to happen. He had to bring Azura back to her family as soon as possible. At least before the next full moon.

"You'd better take a shower while waiting for dinner to finish cooking. I'll get a towel for you!"

"Shower? What is a shower?"

"Oh my God, you're really crazy, aren't you? You don't even know when you take a shower? Have you actually lost your memory or are you stupid?" Aiden's cruelty returned after he had tried to restrain his patience a few moments ago.

Azura didn't know what to say, because it seemed like all the questions she asked made her look even more stupid in Aiden's eyes.

Aiden shook his head in annoyance as he went into the washing room to get a dry towel. He returned and gave a white towel to Azura's hand who for the umpteenth time was confused about what she should do with this soft object?

"Go into the bathroom now! Douse your whole body with water, then use soap and shampoo. Do you understand?" He said with a fierce expression on his face. Azura was scared and immediately ran towards what Aiden called the 'bathroom'.

Aiden felt that he had to have extra patience, because if not, he would go berserk and change his human form.

"Damn it, no no! I have to be able to restrain myself from that fool! Don't let her see who I really am!" He thought.

"Aiden?" Azura called him again. He was forced to look at Azura who was standing in front of the bathroom door with her body wet, but she was still wearing her clothes.

Aiden was shocked, this girl was taking a shower while still wearing clothes on her body. What kind of human could do something as stupid and senseless as that? And what made it even more absurd, the girl smiled happily as if she had done something right.

"I've finished showering!" She said with an innocent face.

"Oh my gosh, you are really going too far, aren't you?"

"I was wrong again, weren't I?"

"You're still asking? You really don't have a brain, do you? You idiot! If you're taking a shower, you should take off all your clothes first!"

"I-is that so?" Azura, who panicked, immediately pulled the clothes that were stuck to her body. Aiden glared, he almost had a heart attack.

"W-what are you doing? What do you want?"

"Taking off my clothes? You mean this thing I'm wearing, right? Don't worry, I understand what you're saying!"

"No! You don't understand at all, you idiot!"

Azura managed to take off all her wet clothes and left her naked. She smiled happily in front of a man whose soul he had messed up.

"See, can I? After this, I just need to wash my body with water, right?" She said as she walked towards the bathroom. She looked so cheerful that she didn't realize that Aiden had completely lost the words to say.

Aiden sat limp with his face red and feeling hot. His heart was beating very fast and it felt very painful for him.

"You damn woman! She's only been here a day, she's already driving me almost crazy." His feelings were raging, he had just seen a very beautiful sight.

A few minutes later, Azura came out of the bathroom and immediately approached Aiden, who didn't want to see her.

"Hey, Aiden. I've finished showering!"

"Why do you still smell? Have you used soap?"

"Soap? Which soap is that?"

"Oh my gosh, why are you so stupid? You don't have one, do you?" Aiden shouted at her in an annoyed tone. Azura was confused, she didn't know what else was wrong? She felt she had done everything Aiden said.

Her feelings were hurt, tears streamed down her face without her realizing it. Seeing her cry like this made Aiden feel very guilty.

"I'm sorry, Aiden. I was so stupid. I'm really sorry." She said while sobbing.

Aiden got up and took the towel that Azura had left in front of the bathroom. He covered Azura's body with the towel, then wiped the tears from the girl's face.

"I'm sorry, it was my fault for being too rude to you. I just don't know how to deal with women. I'm sorry!" He said softly. Azura stopped crying, she immediately hugged Aiden just like that.

Aiden was stunned, confused as to why Azura could be so bold as to hug a man she had just met like this as if she didn't have any worries. However, because Azura had already hugged him, he decided to just let it go.

"Are you always like this with strange men?"

"No!"

"Is it true?"

"I've only ever hugged Ethan like this, but that was a long time ago."

"Is he your boyfriend?"

"Boyfriend? What is a boyfriend?"

"Tsk, just forget it!"

"Ethan is someone very precious to me. I miss him very much and always dream of meeting him again."
