Chapter 12: 12 Are You Happy With Me?
Thankfully, the scroll helped!
Olivia found records about the cobra in the scroll, knowing that its blood contained a serious poison. Only a certain herb could detoxify it.
Following the illustrations in the scroll, she found the herbs in the forest.
After helping Bill come to himself, Olivia was utterly exhausted.
She had traveled quite far in the forest for the sake of finding the herb, and as an extremely weak human, she's almost dead tired.
If it weren't for rescuing Bill, she would have given up!
Landing on her knees, Olivia wiped sweat from her face,"Now we're even."
The herbs were very useful. Shortly afterward, Bill's claws returned to their normal state.
He finally woke up.
When he opened his eyes, there was a brief moment of confusion, until seeing Olivia's sparkling eyes, he gradually recalled the events before his coma.
He was surprised that he hadn't died.
"Quick question, what is one plus one equal to??"
Bill responded weakly, "You saved me?"
"Exactly," she replied.
Bill looked at her with a complex gaze.
He thought she had abandoned him, but instead, she had come back and saved his life!
She was completely different from those selfish and coldblooded females.
Bill spoke softly, "Thank you."
"Your voice is too soft, I didn't catch it!" Olivia rubbed her ears on purpose.
"I meant 'you're a fool."
"Oh, you were saved by a fool, which only proves you're more foolish!"
"I didn't ask for your help."
"All right, it's none of your business. I love giving help." Olivia felt a little frustrated.
Andrew arrived just then, bringing several werewolves to deliver the woods.
Olivia recounted what had happened earlier.
Andrew listened with mixed feelings, thinking if Bill hadn't been present, his Olivia might have been poisoned by the cobra.
"Thank you for saving my mate. I will always be ready to help whenever you need it!"
However, Bill was slightly displeased.
Because he could sense Andrew's gratitude while also subtly warning him not try to steal Olivia away!
Andrew, much more sensitive than Olivia, noticed Bill's interest in Olivia from the start.
For personal gain, he refrained from mentioning the affair to Olivia and let her continue to misinterpret the situation.
A rivalry must be quickly resolved at its inception!
The werewoves Andrew brought had already had their mates.
One male had only one female mate all their life.
So they showed fewer impetuous desires for Olivia than the ones who had no mate, merely looking at her appreciatively once, and then continued to assist with moving the woods.
Bill's poison was already removed by then.
He declined others' offers of assistance. Clumsy yet steady, he followed the others back to the Wolf tribe.
Olivia began making furniture.
After seven days, she managed to make two beds, a chest and a table and five chairs and Andrew made her a big bathtub out of stone.
Using a big bear hide to make a curtain, hanging it around the bathtub, so that Olivia can take a comfortable bath.
Finally, their caves looked like a real home.
She spread out leaves, cotton, and hides to make a soft and comfortable bed. She also made two pillows. One for Andrew and one for herself.
Moon's voice came,
"Congratulations! Your task has been completed. Please check your rewards."
A set of kitchenware, tampons, toilet paper, toothpastes and toothbrush magically appeared before Olivia's sight.
She couldn't help but feel joyful. There were all the things she needed!
Such an amazing reward!
Full of joy, Olivia placed the kitchenware well and told Andrew, "We can now enjoy cooking tonight!"
Andrew had never seen those things before and was intrigued by it.
They built a fire and started cooking.
As no seasoning was provided, Olivia could only cook meat porridge.
The rich aroma drew Andrew and Olivia a lot.
Olivia filled a bowl with meat porridge and presented it to Bill, who lived next door.
While Bill might seem unpleasant, he had rescued her after all.
Considering they were neighbors now, she didn't want their relationship to sour too quickly.
Andrew did not want Olivia to associate with other males, especially Bill, who harbored certain mate intentions towards Olivia.
He volunteered to send Bill meat porridge.
Since Bill disliked females so much, she was sure to get his cutting remarks if she went. So, she handed the bowl of meat porridge to Andrew.
Andrew stood at the entrance of Bill's cave and called out to Bill.
"This is for you."
"What's this?"
"We cook the meat porridge."
Bill reluctantly accepted the offering and walked away.
Upon returning home, Olivia had the meat porridge ready on the table. Her excitement was palpable. "Come and taste!"
Andrew sat beside her, took a taste and complimented, "It's delicious!"
"Then eat more. There's still plenty!"
Andrew watched her bright smile, his handsome face glowing with warmth.
His chiseled features were the epitome of handsomeness, with a square jawline and piercing, blue eyes that seemed to bore right through Olivia. His broad shoulders and muscular build exuded strength and confidence.
When he smiled, his entire face lit up, revealing a set of perfectly white teeth, and the warmth of his gaze could easily disarm even the most guarded of souls.
"You've got great looks."
Olivia was captivated. She swallowed hard and hastily lowered her head to eat her porridge.
Andrew leaned in close and kissed her lips, "Do you like it?"
Olivia blushed deeply, "Of course."
Andrew smiled warmly at her shyness, his eyes reflecting his affection.
"Are you happy with me?"
"Of course."
Her heart raced as she tried to contain herself.
