However, her mind wandered and she found herself staring at the frozen lake, which was not too far from where she was standing right now.

The surface of the frozen lake was so dark, but when the light of the moon reflected on it, it glistened like a mirror. It was beautiful, but in an eerie sense, while there were a lot of heavy machines that were put around the river bank, as those people were trying to drill the ice.

It was bad timing to doze off or to shift your focus somewhere else, but then Zuri couldn’t help it, it was almost like someone was trying to call her and she was not able to keep ignoring the call.

“I want you to be alert,” July warned her sternly when she saw Zuri was staring into the distance once again. She literally glared at her and she knew, once they were out of this place, she would get more than a scolding from her.

On the other hand, Zuri said nothing, since she was aware it was her fault this time around. She shook her head and tried to focus on the matter at hand.

Right now, they were walking stealthy toward the three magnificent machines that looked like a trio of iron monsters. They had to throw the detonators on them.

It was a simple mission that didn’t need to have many people for it to be executed, while the other people would place another detonator in their viands and weapons tents.

The explosion would ruin those scientists’ plans and make them postpone whatever they were going to do to this lake.

.....

Not to mention that July got the whole blueprint of this site, so she knew where the fatal points for the explosions were. She also got first hand information on the watch time for all the guards. It made it easier for them to make a move.

Zuri wouldn’t start asking where she got all of that, since she believed July knew more than she let people know.

“I got it,” Zuri whispered into the communication device in her ear, as she watched Nathen raise his thumb in the distance.

“We need to go out now.” July’s voice came out from the communication device and all of them murmured something like; got it.

For now, Zuri was with Nathen, while July was with Sebastian and the other three men were in different places of this facility.

“You will wake him up,” Hades said, as he appeared all of a sudden behind Zuri and this almost made her shriek.

“What happened?” Nathen asked her when she dropped her things and immediately came to her side to help her collect all her belongings and put them in her bag. “Are you okay?”

“What happened?” came July’s voice from the device.

“She is all right,” Nathen said, as he stared at Zuri, who was nodding her head and then murmured to inform the others.

“I am all right.” Zuri cast Hades a dagger look, but the god of the underworld had his eyes fixed on the eerie dark lake, and she couldn’t help but follow his line of sight. Her heart was beating so fast against her chest, until it was so painful for her to even breathe.

“Let’s go,” Nathen said quickly once they were done, he took her arm and helped her to stand up, but Zuri tensed all of a sudden, as she shoved him to the side very harshly.

At first, Nathen was not aware about what was happening, but then he saw a few people came to them and Zuri was fighting a man with a knife in his hand.

They were ambushed. Their plan was leaked. Their plan had failed.

Zuri shifted into her white beast when she saw that they were outnumbered and there was no way for them to fight them off without anyone getting injured.

However, it was at that time when Zuri shifted into her beast and all of her senses were amplified, she could feel it. It was him and they were close...

She could smell his scent from here.

====================

Eros was sitting outside of the hospital ward, waiting for Emily, while the man, their neighbor, was talking to a nurse and buying him the medicine.

“Where the hell did that couple go?” he asked in annoyance, as he handed the medicines to Eros. “You can go home tomorrow, but I can’t stay for the night, I have important things to do,” he grumbled, but at least he helped.

“Thank you...” Eros murmured and then felt the man put something in his jacket pocket, it was money, not much, but was enough for him to buy a meal and to take Emily home by car.

“Take care,” the bald man walked away from him, saying nothing else and Eros watched him until his big and tall body disappeared at the corner, only then did he enter the ward and curl his body on the small chair there.

He had to endure this painful sleeping position until a few hours later and when Emily woke up, he could take her home.

Thankfully, early in the morning her condition got better and after eating breakfast, Eros took her home.

Inside the taxi, she fell asleep again and curled her body against Eros, as she clutched onto his jacket.

The ride home was very silent...

He was glad that Emily was alive, because he thought she would die and he had to face their parents alone.

=====================

Zuri looked at July, who was glowering at her father and her twin sister, as they looked down at her.

However, one thing that shocked her was another person, who entered the tent, where they were being kept.

“Liam,” Zuri growled when she saw that man. He looked so different from the last time they met.
