“Where is this?” Zuri asked Chaos because he brought them here all of a sudden, leaving their car behind.

Not to mention that they left the wolf in the car, alone. What if someone took her away?

“What is inside?” Zuri asked out of curiosity, her fear must be palpable by the way she hid behind Chaos’ body once they were right in front of this strange red door.

“Someone,” Chaos said dismissively. He then twisted the handle before walking into the room, which was so dark, but once he took a step inside, a torch lit up and brightened the room a little. Two steps and two torches were lit up and so on...

Zuri didn’t like the cold vibe that this place gave out, but since she had Chaos with her, she didn’t have anything else to complain about or fear.

The only person that she was afraid of was Chaos himself. That was too whenever he lost control. She had experienced it a few times now and it was happening more and more frequently. Each time it sent chills down her spine.

This room was even more expansive than the first room and made Zuri feel this uncomfortable feeling just by being there. Even though she was a shifter, and had a high cold tolerance, she still felt cold. So she had to snuggle closer to Chaos, as the man wrapped his arm around her shoulders.

It almost felt like she was so close to the heater.

.....

The two of them kept walking in silence, as they went deeper and deeper into this place, but there was nothing they could see, aside from the darkness ahead and the bright torches that lit up behind them.

Zuri didn’t have any idea what Chaos was looking for or what his intention was to come to this place, but since Chaos didn’t want to say anything even after Zuri asked him a few times, she simply gave up. She would eventually see it herself anyway.

It was a long walk and nobody talked, therefore when Zuri heard a loud sound coming from in front of her, she was startled and alarmed, the first thing that crossed her mind was; there was a danger ahead of them.

However, the next thing that she saw completely baffled her.

“My lord!” There was this high pitch sound from the darkness that echoed throughout the walls followed by a set of hasty footsteps that approached them.

Zuri narrowed her eyes, trying to see through the darkness, just in case she could catch a glimpse of the creature that ran toward them, but unfortunately, she couldn’t make a single thing out of it, unless this creature was already so close to them.

“MY LORD!” There was this high pitch sound again when the sound of his footsteps became even louder.

My lord? The only creature that Zuri ever heard calling Chaos as ‘my lord’ was that Lamia, but the woman had died or vanished according to what Chaos explained to her. Which meant, she would never return? Zuri was still not clear about this.

But, why did this creature that came to them address Chaos in the same way?

It felt like it took a lifetime for Zuri to finally see this creature and once he was there, she simply couldn’t believe what she saw right now.

“He is old,” Zuri whispered to Chaos, but the old man in front of her, amazingly, was able to hear her voice and shot her a deadly glare.

“Do you want to die?” he asked in his threatening and squeaking voice.

“Is that even a threat? Everybody is going to die. Try something new,” Zuri said in a languid tone, as if she was bored to receive such a threat.

Zuri sniffed the air and she was very certain that this old man was a human, but it didn’t make any sense that there was a human living in this place. It was clear that this place was filled with magic, therefore there was no way for him to be here, especially when he noticed Chaos.

What was the deal with this human?

“Do you want to try something new?” The old man rolled his ragged sleeves up to his elbows, as he approached Zuri aggressively, but then Chaos spoke up for the first time.

“Touch her and you will suffer,” Chaos said. He didn’t even raise his voice, but even so, the danger that was laced in his words was enough to make this strange old man stop in his tracks.

“But, my lord... she...” he pointed his bony finger at Zuri, as his golden eyes darted back and forth from Chaos to Zuri to Chaos again. “What is she to you?”

“You can try with the word ‘mate’,” Zuri replied. She looked at the old man, who was about the same height as her with silver hair and big golden eyes that did not suit his skinny face at all.

The old man scrunched his eyebrows when he spoke. “You are not destined together. Lord Chaos is not even your mate.”

Zuri growled in a low voice when she heard that.

“Show me, Norbeat,” Chaos finally spoke to cut the argument between the two of them and shifted the old man’s attention named Norbeat, back to the business.

When Norbeat heard his name being called by Chaos, he cried. He literally bawled until he sniffled, then he tried to wipe away his tears from his wrinkled face with his skinny hands.

“I don’t believe this, I don’t believe this, Lord Chaos is finally here again and he called my name. He called my name...” he repeated the same words again and again between his sobs, which left Zur flabbergasted.

“This must be a joke, right?” Zuri mumbled to herself. Why the hell an old man like him was crying like a five year old boy? “He is overdramatizing the situation.”

“Norbeat,” Chaos called him again to remind him that he had a task from him.

“Yes, yes, My Lord, over here, My Lord...” he said with his hoarse voice, snorted, as he raised his hand and flicked his fingers.

How the magic worked always amazed Zuri and even though she had a good share of watching how Chaos could make something unimaginable to happen, she was still fascinated by how this old man could take them from the dark room with only the fire of the torches as the source of light to this cemetery with row after row of tombs.

“It seems you like death so much,” Zuri commented. She looked around her and could see a full moon shining brightly against the night sky. “Where are we?”

“Don’t you know this is a cemetery?” Norbeat scoffed at her.

“Have you reserved a place here?” Zuri bit back.

“Norbeat,” Chaos called him again to cut his argument with Zuri.

“Yes, My Lord, over here.” Norbeat changed his tune very fast. One second, he scrunched his face and was so grumpy, but in the next, he walked away happily to serve his Lord. “I have saved it well for you.”

“What is it?” Zuri asked in a low voice as both of them followed this old man.

“My sword,” Chaos said simply.

“A sword? For what?” Zuri looked at Chaos curiously. Before this, he didn’t need any weapon even in a battle, so why did he need it all of a sudden?

“I need that.” Chaos only gave that explanation and before Zuri could pursue it further, Norbeat had ruined the atmosphere by crying out loud as he called for Chaos to go over.

“Over here, my lord! Over here, my lord!” He jumped up and down happily, like a five year old boy beside a big and deep hole that he had dug.

Zuri was impressed by how fast he could dig a hole in the ground, but then she remembered it was easy for him to do so, since he had the power.

Zuri and Chaos walked over to where Norbeat made a commotion and stood near the hole. It looked dark and with the limited light, it was hard to see the bottom of it.

“Your sword is down there?” Zuri asked Chaos, she turned around and watched his reaction, but he didn’t show any change of expression.

“This is not your business wolf, so stay out of it,” Norbeat snapped with hostility at her, while shooting her an angry glare.

“I wish I can kill you,” Zuri mumbled. She felt like she had had enough of this creature’s ramblings.

“You wish,” Norbeat said smugly, he crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked at Zuri sideways, as if she didn’t even deserve to be spared a normal glance. “Even if you push me down this hole, you will not be able to leave even a scratch on me.”

That was a wrong statement for Norbeat to say. A wrong move to pick a fight with Zuri, because the next thing that she did was to push him down the hole.

Zuri raised her leg and kicked him on his butt, since he was already in front of her, standing at the edge of the hole confidently.

There was a loud scream that came from Norbeat when he fell to the bottom of the hole, while Zuri smirked in satisfaction.
