NovelEnglishLeila splashed her face with water to cool herself down. While looking at herself in the mirror, she thought, "Why did I feel jealous like a spoiled princess? It's not like I own him. It's all because of the problem with my body. Everything goes wrong once my emotions are out of control. It's getting worse. Whenever I am in his presence, my heart starts to beats rapidly and erratically and my face turns red. Ugh, I almost lost control of my feelings and transformed into a feline beast. Would he still like me if he knows that I am demi-human?"
According to what she knows, she and Peter are beastkin related to the felines. She was a humanoid cat. However, she looked totally like a human being as her human blood was dominant. Besides, she had no control over her demi-human powers and features. Lastly, If her mood is too high, she transforms into her feline form. That's why she always act cold… or at least tries her best to appear as cold as possible.
"Let's go back and finish eating." She thought while looking at herself in the mirror before stepping out of the bathroom and sitting near him once again.
"Where are Peter and Nevis?" She asked.
"They took off to their rooms," Vincent replied. "Focus on eating more than worrying and thinking about others. You are so thin and short. You should eat more to grow taller."
Hearing his words, she puffed up her face as if she was angered.
"You don't have to point out my shortcomings."
Vincent patted her head and said, "Okay, okay, I get it. Now eat a lot of meat!"

"Are you done?" Vincent asked after a while.
"Yes," Leila replied. "What about you?"
"The food was delicious. Thanks to you, I was able to eat it," Vincent replied while cleaning the stains near her lips and on her cheeks as his lips thinned into a smile.
Leila blushed harder since she was unused to him being like that.
"I am going back to my room," she said as she felt that she will lose control and transform into a feline if she stays in his presence for a while longer.
"Wait for me," Vincent said as she caught up to her.
"Hmm?"
"I will accompany you to your room."
Leila didn't have the heart to refuse his offer. Thus, they walked to her room together.
"See you tomorrow," Leila said.
After reaching the room, she parted ways with him and entered the room.
She didn't even get a few minutes to calm her feelings when someone knocked on the door of her room.
"Who is it at this time?" She thought to herself as she walked up to the door.
She opened the door and saw Vincent standing in front of her.
"Did you forget something?" She asked with a smile.
"Actually, we will be sharing the room," Vincent said as he showed her the master card he just obtained from the faculty member.
"Please come inside," Leila said to Vincent as she thought: 'It's not like I can stop him from entering the room. Besides, it will be fine if I don't talk or physically interact with him. My best option to hide that I am a demi-human is to just sleep.'

"Eh? What?! Why is he hugging me?!!" Leila internally exclaimed as redness flooded the smooth and milky skin of her face, even her neck and ears turned red.
"Big brother? What is wrong??" She blurted out without thinking.
Vincent leaned forward. Leila saw his handsome face just a hair's breadth away from her face.
"Leila, I want us to be more than friends."
"Big brother, what do you mean?"
"I like you. This isn't a joke, I really like you as a person, a friend, and a… woman. Will you go out with me?" Vincent said as he looked at Leila in anticipation.
"I… accept!" Leila replied as the redness on her cute face deepened.
"Great. I don't have any jewelry to gift you. This is the only thing of value that I possess. I hope you will like it," Vincent said as he gave her one of his three fire magic scroll.
A smile blossomed on her blushing face as she accepted the precious fire magic scrolls.
"This is more precious than anything else. Thank you, big brother!" Leila replied as she thought that he is really good to her and that she should do something in return.
