They had been doing this long before Zuri was born. It was because she was born with such gift to know for sure Chaos’s shattered soul that it would make things easier for her, but they knew the creature with Chaos’s soul. They recognized the trait and they noticed it on Eros.

“If you don’t believe me, what is the point for you to ask about this?” Zuri narrowed her eyes, she hated it when she had to repeat the same thing again, but it was only a fa?ade that she showed to them, because deep down, she was trying her hard not to scream at Skylar to drop this topic. “If that was the only thing that you want to ask, I need to go. I want to take a bath.”

Zuri was about to turn around when Gael grabbed her wrist and stopped her.

“What is it?” She really needed to go from here, or else, she was afraid that they would read her lie easily on her face, after all, Knox and Gael were so hard to be lied to, and it was suck…

“Let’s have lunch together later,” Gael said, he gave her a mischievous grin, which made her suspicious.

“What is it? Your smile makes me uneasy,” she was true to what she said because there was no way that was a genuine smile. He must have hidden agenda to take her out all of sudden.

“Don’t put your guard too high with me, what do you think I will do with you? I know you, since you are little.” He tousled her hair, but she swatted his hand away from her.

“So, lunch?” Gael still didn’t back down from his offer. “Only the two of us.” He added when he saw Zuri eyed Knox and Skylar.

.....

She wouldn’t want to go anywhere if Skylar would be there. The girl had been a pain in the neck recently when she refused to go out of her bedroom, even Norbeat was not as annoying as she was.

“Okay.” Zuri swatted his hand away from her, if this what it took for her to get away from this place quickly, she would agree to Gael’s suspicious invitation for lunch.

Meanwhile, she hoped Knox and Skylar would drop the issue about Eros. She hoped they would think if Eros was really Chaos’s shattered soul, she would be the one, who told him that.

After all, in their eyes, there was no reason for Zuri to lie. She would have done everything for Chaos.

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

“What is actually happening in the Lucinda city?” Ariana asked Liam. She couldn’t hold this back any longer when she heard what had happened to Colton. She would drive by herself to the new capital city if it was not for her mate, who stopped her.

Actually, Colton also didn’t want her to confront Liam about this, but she couldn’t. She needed to get the answer from this.

“Good morning, Ariana,” Liam said, he just got out of his room to start his day, only to find out Ariana had been waiting for him, since dawn.

Pressing her lips tightly, Ariana murmured a ‘good morning’ to her alpha and then tried to calm herself down.

“Can you please explain the situation to me, Alpha. Why Colton was attacked?” Ariana lowered her head submissively, because she didn’t want to let him know how angry she was right now to know that her mate was injured because of the attack from experimental creature.

All of them knew, where those experimental creatures came from. There was only one place that led the experiment to the supernatural creature and currently, Liam was having a deal with them.

“Don’t worry, he will be fine,” Liam said in light tone, he patted her shoulder. “It will be good for you if you return to your own room and perfect the serum, so we can use it.”

Ariana didn’t buy it, that was not the question that she asked for. She didn’t need to be reminded of the job that she had to do, therefore, she stood her ground. “I wish to know more about what happened in Lucinda city.”

Liam narrowed his eyes, this was not like her to demand an answer. Even though she lowered her eyes and looked submissive, you could tell how stubborn she was at this moment when this related to her mate.

“We will talk later when Colton and the other return.” Liam walked away from her, but she pestered him relentlessly. She didn’t look like a young healer, who always kept to herself like she used to.

“Alpha, please, I need to know. I am worried about my mate.” Ariana felt her palms were so clammy, but she didn’t want to back down, she hastily followed Liam, until the alpha lost his patience and turned around to face her.

“What do want to know?” he asked tersely. He was annoyed to be bothered by her in this early morning.

“I want to know do you still have a cooperation with the people that hurt him?” Ariana raised her head and then looked at Liam straight in his eyes, because she needed to see whether this alpha was talking the truth, or he just waltzed his way out by sugarcoating his words. What was his end goal in this matter? She thought he hated the organization and the human.

Years had gone by and the alpha seemed to forget his first ideal about this pack.

“I don’t need to discuss the problem in this pack with you,” Liam said sternly. “I don’t have that obligation, do I?”

Ariana pressed her lips tightly into a thin line. She was worried sick about Colton’s condition. If the attack was that bad, he would have returned within two or three days, that was plenty of time to recover, but more than a week to recover? How much he had injured? Especially when there was Emily there to help.

“Yes, alpha.” Yet, she couldn’t do much here.

“Good. Now, stop following me.” His voice was cold, he glanced at her through his shoulder and then walked away.

Ariana stood rooted in her place, staring at Liam’s retreating back. Something flashed in her mind, was that anger?

The fact that she didn’t appreciate how the alpha treated this matter recklessly, or maybe he didn’t see Ariana worth to have this kind of discussion with, made the healer hated him even more.

She finally turned around when Emma approached her father.

“Father!” Emma chirped, as she rushed toward her father and hugged him so tight.

“You are up so early.” Liam’s smile was genuine when he held his daughter in his arms. She was the only joy in his eyes. She was perfect. All he had to go through when he had to make a deal with the devil was worth it.

Liam loved Aiden too, but he was lack in a lot of aspect and needed to work so hard, if he was going to take his title as an alpha.

“Yes, because I want to go to the training ground with you,” Emma replied happily, but then she looked at her father. “Can I go with you?”

“Sure.” Liam bent his body and then carried her to the training ground, while her arms wrapped around his neck.

However, the moment Emma rested her chin on Liam’s shoulder and her expression was out of sight, her gaze turned cold when she stared at Ariana’s retreating back. Her golden eyes filled with so much calculation.

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

“What is it?” Zuri opened the door. She had not yet taken a bath now and her appearance was the same like when she left the storage room, where they kept the carcasses of the beast.

“I told you that I will take you to lunch, right?” Gael reminded her. He frowned when he saw how messed up this girl was. “Can you at least wash your face? I can’t understand why Chaos can stand you.”

“He has been away for two days,” Zuri grumbled, as she let Gael entered her room.

“So, that’s the time when you decided to stop taking a bath?” Gael was not pleased with Zuri’s appearance, but he was satisfied that at least, she took care of this room.

“I am not smelly.” That was true, she smelled fine. “What do you want here?” Zuri didn’t want to entertain him with his nonsense. “I am tired, I want to sleep.”

“You have been sleeping more than normal human, are you hibernating?” Gael eyed her. “Go get change, I want to take you to meet with someone.”

“Who?” Zuri sat on the sofa, while Gael leaned his tall body against the wall. “I don’t want to meet with anyone. I don’t want to go out of this room.”

Gael stared at her for a while longer, before he blurted out the question. “Is he your mate?”

The question was out of the blue and this caught her out of guard. “What do you mean?”

“I see…” Gael mumbled. “I don’t believe it at first, I thought I see thing, but your reaction gives away the answer.”
