Ice Prince: Rewrite The Star

Chapter 226 - Ch. 226 Ashley's Resolution

While Harmonie was still in a searching quest, Ashley, who was in the same cave as Chleo, was in a dilemma with her current situation.

She wanted to get closer to Chleo, but the girl was making out with the blue king. She couldn't help but feel like she was the third wheel or a bully if she forced herself to approach her new friend's sweet time.

Moreover, she couldn't see the gap between the lovebird as if they had stuck together like postage stamps.

Besides, does Chleo have to sit on her lover's lap? Have they forgotten that they are not alone?

With a resigned sigh, Ashley walked in the opposite direction and realized the place she was headed for was the red king's resting area. If she were to approach Chu Jung while she was under that young man's charm...

Ugh!

In the end, Ashley decided to go outside for some fresh air. She inhaled as much air as possible as soon as the cool breeze hit her skin. Ashley just realized the oxygen in this world was much cleaner and fresher than in the human world.

She felt like she was in a mountain where only shady trees were rarely crossed by motorized vehicles.

It seemed that she would feel at home living in this place if this world wasn't the birthplace of those evil, scary creatures.

Ashley heard a voice behind her, and she couldn't help but look back.

Ashley's brow furrowed when she saw one of the red wolves approaching her and standing right in front of her.

His pair of red eyes looked at her with a look she could never understand.

Why did this red wolf follow her here? And why was he looking at her like that?

With a subtle motion, Ashley stepped away. She had often heard about the red wolf from her grandfather, but she couldn't help but feel frightened when she came face to face with the real deal.

Moreover, the wolf's monstrous frame that exceeds her height and large body could crush her much smaller one... Which human girl would be fearless to face this kind of beast?

Well, it's not that frightening, plus this red wolf no longer changed his form to a terrifying figure like when he fought the Vectis.

She also knew and was sure this red wolf would not hurt her. But still, she felt uneasy about being alone with this red beast.

Should she come back? But she didn't want to eat dog food from that lovebird, who no longer cared about the world around them. Neither did she wish to linger close to the fourteen-year-old red king.

Getting caught up in the charms of the red king was already a bad thing. What happens if her temporary feelings come true? She wouldn't be able to bear it.

Moreover, it seems that the young man was not aware of his special charm gift. And judging by the shape of the jawline of the young man's face and the charisma he radiated, she couldn't take her eyes off the young man.

Ashley couldn't help but admit she had been attracted like a magnet to the young man the moment her eyes caught sight of the young man's face. But once she found out that the red king's actual age was still a young teenager, she became less interested.

No. Ashley was still attracted because the red king's charm was too strong for her to resist. This was precisely what made her not want to be near the young man.

She knew the red king was not easy to give his heart to someone. If her feelings become real one day, she would only be facing a broken heart once she realizes the red king didn't reciprocate her feelings.

The only way out was not to see the young man and split up for good. That way, this temporary feeling would disappear, and she wouldn't be hurt if he didn't like her.

No. It's not like Ashley wishes to lose her head over the red king, let alone a boy who was six years younger than her.

Hhhh… What should she do?

Ah, never mind. Ashley would stay here and pretend that she was alone and turn a blind eye toward the red wolf who was still looking at her with the same unfathomable look.

Ashley turned her face away from the red wolf and sat on the ground, completely ignoring her clothes getting dirty with the sand.

Ashley didn't like getting dirty and was a clean freak. But ever since she was taken to the desert with Chleo, she had to get used to the dirty clothes and dust sticking to her skin.

And thus, sitting on the ground filled with gravel and sand was less disgusting for her.

Ashley sat casually, looking up at the empty sky. Unlike the human world, the sky here looked void. There was no sun, no clouds. Then how could this place look bright if there was no sun?

What a stupid question. This realm was not the human world, and neither did Ashley plan to stay in this world. She shouldn't stick her nose in where it wasn't needed.

Ashley didn't know how long she had been sitting there. Nor did she know whether the red wolf that had followed her had left her or if it was still standing behind her.

But her eyelids began to feel heavy, and her head was bobbing a sign that she would soon fall asleep.

Because she couldn't stand the feeling of fatigue and stress that was so heavy a few hours ago, Ashley gave up and let sleepiness overwhelm her.

Her head drooped to the side and fell right on the red wolf's giant neck, who was already lying down while holding his head up.

As soon as he felt the human beside him fast asleep, his long and thick tail shifted closer to cover the girl's body to protect her from the light wind storm.

That day was the first time Ashley had been able to sleep soundly without being miserable since she woke up in the desert.
