25. Bet

They both slept together as Alex made himself comfortable beside her. Diana made sure that no one saw her coming here.

During the night, both of them had their back to each other as they slept but the accompaniment and warmth was still there.

During the night, Diana put her head on Alex's chest as they slept soundly and Alex had his arms encircling her waist.

They slept soundly with each other's warmth and Diana woke up before Alex as she had a habit of waking up early.

Seeing her ambiguous posture with Alex. She was a bit embarrassed but she didn't let it affect her and tried to get up from his arms.

'How strong is he'. She felt his arms were like a vice. They were tightly clutched around her body.

'If I use too much strength, he will wake up or get hurt'. She felt a bit helpless as she didn't want to hurt him. They had been together for a while and she felt that he was a pleasant guy.

Unknowingly, she stopped viewing him like a younger brother but viewed him like a proper man when she saw him hunt a boar and felt the strength in his arms.

This was their culture, warriors and Braves were respected and revered on this island. Most Amazons look for Strong people when they mate and take the girls back home.

Diana didn't know their customs of sending the males as slaves to the Gods and just keeping the girls as their own but instincts as a whole were hard to suppress.

Alex squirmed a bit as he woke up groggily. Feeling a weight on his chest, he tightened his arms and habitually kissed the other party's forehead.

"Good morning hun". He said as he stretched his legs and looked below.

Only to get stunned when he saw the face of the other party. Diana had a little blush on her face as she looked at him with anger and embarrassment.

"What is the meaning of this?" She demanded as she quickly got away from him when she felt Alex's arms slacked a bit.

"Sorry, I just did it habitually. Since my Girlfriends like it a lot". Alex rubbed the back of his head as he said with an awkward tone.

"Hmph". Diana harrumphed and stormed out of the room.

Alex quickly went after her and before she could step out of the house. He stood up in front of her and blocked her way.

"Sis, don't be angry. It was just habitual, I swear. I-I will take responsibility". Alex quickly pacified her and when he felt that the opportunity was quite good, he even put forward this term.

"Hmph, just you. You already have four Girlfriends". Diana said with a scowl on her face.

"Alright, since you think that. Let's do this, if I win the match. I will ask for your hand". Alex said as he looked at Diana seriously.

Diana was ready to hear more excuses from him but his words left her a bit dumbfounded and unable to respond for a bit.

"Hmph, we'll see". Saying that she shoved him aside and ran off quickly.

Alex smiled victoriously as he walked back in and started to get ready. He was going to exercise a bit to warm up his body and catch some prey for food.

After getting ready, he stepped into the forest and quickly blended in with the surroundings. He was camouflaged better than a chameleon.

He quickly shuffled through as he spotted a dear from a distance. 'You are it'. He thought as he silently shot off from his position like an arrow and approached the deer.

The deer was clueless till the end as it happily grazed on the grass around it. Alex quickly came down from above and delivered an axe kick to its neck.

The neck quickly tilted sideways as the light faded from the dear's eyes and it fell limp to the ground. Till the end, it was clueless.

"Gouchisosama". Alex did it like Toriko as he clashed his hands and produced a metallic clink from it.

'That Kugi Punch is a good technique to deliver damage. Should try it sometime, will be easy'. Alex thought as he lugged the deer on his shoulder and walked back to the house.

Getting back, he skinned the dear, drained its blood and cut it into pieces and put it on fire for a good roast.

After adding a good amount of spices and herbs. The deer was dripping with juices and ready to eat. He took the meat and sat on the chair.

The door to his house opened and Diana stormed in as she quickly sat down on his opposite side. She had already taken a plate and some meat.

Alex raised an eyebrow at her behaviour when he saw this. "Didn't you just leave angrily?" He asked as he pointed at her with a bone.

"I thought that you didn't do it on purpose and came back to reconcile but then I smelled the food". Diana said with her mouth full of food and the corner of her lips dirty with grease and juices.

"You Glutton". Alex exclaimed as he saw her ravishing the meat on her plate.

He also sped up his pace as he gulped down the meat. "Oi, that thigh is mine". He quickly tried to snatch but she put it in her mouth.

They fought for quite a lot of meat but they had a good time as they finished the whole deer in half an hour.

Diana and Alex patted their stomachs as they burped contentedly. "Could use a Coke right now". Alex said as he burped a couple more times.

"I don't know what that is but I do have some cold Ale". Diana said as she dragged in a barrel from the outside.

"Yeah that'll do as well". Alex nodded as they quickly opened the barrel and started to guzzle down the cold Ale like Water.

After finishing their meal and a barrel of Ale. Both of them were sprawled on the table and chairs relaxedly.
