Therefore, she knocked on the door instead to tell him that she was there.

“Chaos, are you there?” she asked. She knew he was there, his scent filled the air and the temperature inside the bathroom was quite high, which meant he was running a hot bath there.

“Come in.” Came the reply from inside, catching her off guard.

What?

“What?”

“Come in.”

Chaos repeated what he said, as if she didn’t hear him the first time, but she just wanted to give him a chance to change what he had said.

“Why should I come in?” There was no response from him and the hot water was still running. “Chaos?”

.....

Still there was no response and she started to worry that he found some trouble, since he couldn’t see things around him.

“Chaos?” Zuri started getting anxious when there was no word from him. Should she go and get Knox? But, to see him sporting his annoying expression was the last thing that she wanted to do.

Zuri was glad to see him that he was fine, but a few minutes of talking inside the library was enough for her to last for a month before seeing him again.

“Chaos, are you dressed?” She was worried about this, but when there was still no response from him, she entered the bathroom and found the fog obscured her sight slightly.

Zuri went to turn off the water heater and found Chaos leaning against the wall. He was topless, but at least he was wearing his pants.

“If you are there, you should have answered me,” Zuri said, she was agitated to know that he was all right and her worries were nothing but baseless.

“I have told you to come in,” he said curtly. And the way he talked reminded her of Knox’s impatient self.

Chaos’ dark eyes glistened under this light fog and Zuri found out he managed to point out where she was rather precisely.

“What do you want?” Zuri’s expression turned ashen. She forgot that Chaos sometimes could be as difficult as Knox.

“I need your help with washing my hair,” Chaos said simply. He moved toward the faucet and bent his body, so that his long, black hair would be under the water flowing from it.

Zuri was taken aback by this request. She didn’t know how much Chaos knew about her problem, but she was sure enough that he had figured out that she couldn’t have any physical contact, but now, he wanted her to wash his hair?

“I will not do it.” That was final. Zuri turned around to leave the bathroom, but Chaos flicked his finger and the door was closed shut, it was locked and no matter how hard Zuri tried, she couldn’t get it opened. “This is not funny at all,” Zuri said grimly.

“I don’t want this to be fun.”

Once again, Zuri turned around to face Chaos, but he was still in his position, waiting for her to come over and help him to wash his hair.

“You look like a human.” Zuri didn’t know why she said that, but she reckoned it was to hurt him, since he was some kind of a great creature that despised humans. Most of the shifters and supernatural creatures did so.

For a moment, Chaos said nothing, but then he broke the silence with a scowl. “It will be easy for me if that’s the case,” he said.

At this point, he stood up straight and then perched on the edge of the bathtub. He didn’t look like someone who lost their eyesight at all, since his movements were very precise and he didn’t even stumble while finding the positions of all the things around him.

Zuri watched the way he moved and how his eyes easily found her. She doubted that he couldn’t see her...

“Why?” she asked, they were a few steps away, since Zuri wanted to keep a distance between them and where she was standing right now was the furthest part of this bathroom, since she was locked here and couldn’t go anywhere.

“They died.”

The answer was too abrupt and she didn’t expect such an answer.

“We are all dead.”

“My time has no end, my eternity knows no limit.”

“You will live forever,” Zuri stated. He would live forever while the people that he knew would die eventually. It sucks to put it that way.

“I live forever.”

Zuri didn’t know how to respond to that, she felt that there was a deeper meaning to it, but she couldn’t put her finger on what he actually wanted to say.

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

Knox entered July’s bedroom, which initially was his bedroom, since this manor used to be under the McKeltar family until a few years ago.

He found her standing near the window with her long, black hair cascaded down her shoulders, as she held a glass of wine, her expression looked serene, she was even dozing off a little bit until she realized Knox had come when he hugged her from behind.

“You are avoiding me,” he stated immediately.

“I am not.”

Knox spun her, so he could see her face. She looked more mature and there was a hard line on her jaw that told him that she had been through so much to be in this position. To take care of what he had left behind.

He was proud of what she had achieved and he wouldn’t ask for more. It would be so greedy of him to ask more from this perfect woman.

But, he knew when she lied.

“You don’t lie to me, July. You know that you are not capable of doing that.” Knox tilted her head and kissed her lips, but she didn’t respond. “Tell me, what is it?”

July bit her lips and her eyes glistened with tears. “I am afraid,” she said in a hoarse voice.

“What are you afraid of?”
