Chapter 24

"Ace! What are you doing!" Theresia snapped.

The one who just came and threw the drink away was Ace, it made the two girls confused. Why did Ace throw the drink away?

"Theresia, can you take care of yourself? Don't trust people easily, look at that drink is poisonous!" Ace explained at length, pointing at the drink that had been scattered on the ground.

Theresia and Lilia covered each other's mouths, seeing the ground that was hit by the drink seemed to be eroded made them both believe that the drink was poisonous. Theresia blinked a few times, she had already drank a little earlier.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know. I thought she was just a child who wanted to share," Theresia said, lowering her head, feeling dizzy already running through her head.

"Theresia, what are you doing? Did you drink it earlier?" Ace of course was worried about Theresia's condition, he tried to support Theresia's weak body.

Theresia nodded slowly then said, "Yeah, I drank a little."

While Lilia clucked in annoyance. "You are very stupid, Theresia," he scolded annoyed, but still Lilia was worried about Theresia.

"I will bring Theresia home and treat her, the poison must be removed immediately," said Ace, holding Theresia who was already weak.

Lilia panicked, then nodded slowly. "Okay, then I will go to Theresia's workplace to replace her," he said a little hesitantly.

After getting Lilia's approval, Ace immediately took Theresia away from there as fast as lightning.

While Lilia, was still standing where she was. . He was trying to remember something. "What's Theresa's place of work?" he said questioningly, tapping his chin with his index finger.

"Aahh, yes. I remember, Magic Shop cafe. But, how do I know the address of that place?" Lilia thought again, before long she smiled broadly as she said, "You idiot, I'm a magician. Just create a portal to that cafe."

Sure enough, Lilia did what she said. He made a connecting portal with his power, hopefully he doesn't destroy Theresia's work.

Elsewhere, Ace who is already at Theresia's house is now laying the woman on the sofa. Several times he tried to remove the poison from Theresia's body, but to no avail. Ace kept trying, until on the third try Theresia finally came back to her senses.

"Finally you realized," said Ace breathed a sigh of relief seeing Theresia slowly opened her eyes, just because she drank a little poison Theresia was already unconscious.

Theresia is still He felt dizzy in his head, it felt like his whole body was weakening. I don't know what poison was in the drink, until Theresia was unconscious. "Thank you, Ace. Sorry to bother you again," he said with a faint smile.

Ace sat beside Theresia, he couldn't stop staring at her with a calm gaze. "What are you talking about? I like it when you bother me, remember Theresia. You are my mate," he said in a soft tone.

Theresia pondered, if Ace could sacrifice his life to protect her. Why can't he try to accept Ace in his life?

"Ace, why do you believe that I am your mate?" asked Theresia getting serious.

Ace smiled. "Because all the signs are in you, I also promised myself. I will protect you forever," he answered confidently, there was no doubt on his face.

Theresia started to melt, the corners of her lips lifted to form a sweet smile. . Then replied, "Thank you, Ace."

"Do you accept me as a mate now?" asked Ace with hopeful eyes.

Theresia was silent for a moment, she thought about all the things that might happen if she accepted Ace as a mate. But if that was Teresa's destiny, what could she do? After a moment of thought, Theresia looked up at Ace.

~Theresia nodded. "Yeah, there's nothing wrong with giving you the opportunity to enter my life," he said with a faint smile.

Ace's face immediately turned happy, he was happy that Theresia didn't reject him. If Ace is rejected by a mate, he will be the saddest Alpha werewolf of all time. His self-esteem will also drop if he is rejected.

A reflex of Ace hugged the girl in front of him tightly, as if he didn't want to let her go. It would be a lie if Ace hadn't fallen in love with Theresia, in fact the Alpha werewolf had already fallen into Theresia's charm.

"Thank you, Theresia. May I mark you as a mate?" Ace whispered right next to Theresia's ear, without letting go of her hug.

It made Theresia shudder in horror, because Ace's deep voice sounded very clear in her ears. He frowned, then said, "Mark what?"

"Mark your body," Ace replied in a whisper, then a lopsided smile appeared on his face. Without waiting for Theresia's response, Ace brought his lips to the nape of Theresia's neck. Not stopping there, Ace bit Theresia's neck. That's how a werewolf marks his mate, by biting the mate's neck to form a mark.

While Theresia closed her eyes, she felt like she was being bitten. But it didn't hurt, it was just that Theresia wasn't comfortable with it. "What are you doing?" he asked gently pushing Ace's head away.

The culprit smiled innocently, his eyes still faithfully gazing at every inch of Theresia's face. Not long after, Ace brought his face closer to Theresia again. "That's how a werewolf marks his mate," he said patting Theresia's head gently, then said again, "But don't worry, I won't ask for a union now."

Theresia's brows furrowed, she didn't understand the meaning of the words Ace. "Union what? I don't understand what you mean," he said, staring at Ace closely.

Ace's hands moved to hold Theresia's cheeks. "One day you'll know. Ah, maybe soon," he replied with a light laugh.

Theresia who was still weak couldn't help but take a deep breath, while muttering briefly.

"Would you like to go out with me this afternoon?" Ace spoke again.

"Where?" asked Theresia raising an eyebrow.

"Somewhere beautiful." Ace replied with a smile still on his face.

Theresia smiled too. "Okay, I will," he said softly.

While Ace didn't really listen to Theresia's words, he was fixated on the beauty of the girl in front of him. His gaze could not escape from Theresia's tiny lips. Whether Ace got the courage from where, he was now closer to Theresia, eroding the distance between the two. Even now their breath seems to be fused.

Theresia who gets that treatment, can only be silent and close her eyes when Ace's face is very close. Don't know what kind of magic Ace uses, it makes Theresia feel like she's numb and can't move.

Ace smiled crookedly, seeing Theresia closed her eyes. His gaze remained fixed on Theresia's lips.

"Hey! What are you doing?! My eyes are stained." Someone's voice suddenly sounded instantly ruined the romantic atmosphere.
