The Author's POV

Chapter 188

"Whaaa! Pwudding!"

Sitting on the red sofa in my parent's house, I watched as Nola happily played with 'Pudding' a.k.a Angelica in the living room. A peaceful and relaxed smile appeared on my face.

For the past month, I had to be on constant alert as I was in a completely new planet where dangers lied everywhere.

From infiltrating Gud Khodror to infiltrating Setin and assassinating the young chief. Not a moment that I spent in Immorra did I relax or let my guard down.

Honestly, this relaxing atmosphere where I didn't have to worry about someone attacking me or had to be on constant alert was a nice change of pace.

I really needed this...

"Calm down Nola, you're going to scare the cat if you do that"

Sitting next to me, my mother, placed her hand on her cheek as a troubled look appeared on her face. Staring at me who was peacefully lying down on the sofa, she tapped my shoulder and worriedly said.

"Ren do something about this, I don't want Nola to get hurt"

Glancing at my mom, I reassured her.

"Nah it's fine, Pudding is a very docile cat"

"Is that so?"

Waving it off, I further reassured her that everything was fine.

"Yeah, she's a very gentle one. She won't hurt a fly"

"Well, if you say so"

Trusting my words, my mother finally calmed down.

Honestly, when my parents saw Angelica for the first time they were surprised. The reaction I got from my mom rendered me speechless.

She immediately hugged me and apologized to me by saying things like;

'For you to go all the way and buy a cat, you must've been lonely'

'Come here mama will comfort you'

'I'm sorry for not being with you all the times'

Yeah...

My speechless reaction was understandable.

This would've never have happened if Angelica remained as a ring, but tired of being a ring, Angelica transformed into her usual cat form.

I guess she disliked always being on my finger, but who was I to bash her for it. Had I been in her position I probably would've felt the same way.

Either way, her being in her cat form was ideal.

Especially since I needed for her to stay with my parents for a bit whilst I took care of the 'trash'

Someone had to protect them whilst I was gone after all.

Sitting on the floor of the living room, turning her head in my direction, Angelica spoke to me inside of my mind.

[Human, get this monkey away from me]

Hearing Angelica's voice inside of my head, I shook my head as an odd look appeared on my face.

'Stop pretending, I know that you've fallen for the charms of little Nola'

Staring at Nola happily petting Angelica with her small hands, I knew that Angelica had fallen for her charms.

If she disliked it so much she could've simply moved away, but she didn't as she just laid on the ground with Nola caressing her back constantly.

Moreover, whilst Nola was caressing her, Angelica's ears were perked upright indicating that she liked it.

Feigning ignorance, Angelica angrily said.

[What are you talking about human?]

Raising my brow and looking at Angelica, I shook my head disappointedly.

'mmmhmmm, then why are you letting her pet you?'

She may have been able to fool someone else, but not me. Since she had previously told me she disliked being treated like a cat, why would just be so docile in front of Nola?
