Chapter 268: 268

268 THE POOR WOLF

All the people in the station were waiting for some kind of drama to unfold, but unfortunately, it ended even before anything juicy started.

Zuri looked around her and met everyone’s curious eyes, while holding the little wolf in her arms, but then, a second later, those people looked away and continued with their lives, as if there was nothing strange had happened and it was not a weird sight to see someone entering the train with a wolf in her arms, without any cage on top of it.

“You did that?” Zuri looked up at Chaos and realized that was the case, or else, those people wouldn’t stop staring at her and the wolf in a strange way.

And as usual, Chaos said nothing, he walked ahead and found their seats, as he took a seat next to the window and proceeded to close his eyes. He looked exhausted.

He let Zuri do whatever she wanted and in hindsight, it was good that she had the wolf with her, since it could be a friend to her, since she didn’t have one.

Zuri took a seat across from Chaos, so she could see the scenery from the window as well. While the wolf that she named White, for obvious reasons, was sitting next to her with her head on her lap, nudging her hand to get scratches on her back.

Zuri obliged and the wolf purred in satisfaction. Though the wolf and Chaos were not on good terms, both of them seemed to have one common trait; both of them loved to have Zuri’s attention.

“Are we going to the Artzees country again?” Zuri asked Chaos, since she was still clueless about their destination. Chaos didn’t talk much about this.

Most of the time, Chaos seemed to choose the place randomly, but sometimes, he would take her to a specific place.

.....

“No,” Chaos replied, with his eyes still closed. “We will go across the sea.”

Zuri frowned when she heard that. It would be one of the islands outside of this land then and this would be their first time going so far.

Meanwhile, the train was rather crowded with many people looking for their seats.

Watching the sun that was almost set from the window gave a sad feeling to Zuri.

She looked at the man in front of her and wondered how their story would end...

Would they change places for the rest of their time? Was this what life would look like for her? For now, Zuri didn’t mind following wherever Chaos wanted to go, but her main concern was Chaos himself.

Zuri could feel there was something dark in him and it was hard to ignore. As if, there was a feral beast that was ready to be freed.

Chaos was more like a ticking bomb now and Zuri didn’t know how to help him...

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

Jasmine had been feeling disgusted by the way Liam treated her. The humiliation that she felt was something that she wouldn’t be able to forget. It would be etched in her being for the rest of her life.

Liam had fucked her in front of three of his wariors and all of them watched him doing it to her without even blinking or turning their heads away from the scene and Jasmine couldn’t stop screaming for Liam to stop, yet it was a raw feeling that she had never felt before.

Being watched while Liam did her gave her a strange feeling and she felt guilty that she didn’t feel as much hatred as she wanted to, since she kind of enjoyed it. It was crazy and she was extremely ashamed to feel that way.

It was her pride that was hurt to view herself being subjected in such a degraded way.

The days following that incident, Liam had paraded her like a pet in his possession. He would take her to the place that she and her people had ruined or to the ritual to let go of the pack members that had died during the attack. They burned the dead bodies, where all of the other pack members cursed Jasmine with every kind of nasty word that they could think of, while Liam did nothing.

As long as it didn’t get physical, he let them say whatever hurtful words that they wanted, even when it became sexual, since they knew what Liam had done in front of the three warriors.

Jasmine remembered she threw him a dagger look for what his pack members had told her, but he made zero effort to stop that. He let them vent out their anger and agony on her.

But at the end of the ritual, Liam came to her to whisper into her ear. “This is just the beginning.”

On top of that, Liam would dress her in a way that would reveal so much of her skin. Those were the kinds of dresses that she would never wear. He gave her regular injections, rendering her incapable of doing anything to protect herself.

This torture was only the beginning of what Jasmine would experience later, there was a lot more for her to endure to atone for what she had done.

For now, Jasmine was still holding onto the hope that the backup soldiers would be sent to rescue her. She would close her eyes at night with the thought; tomorrow they would come to rescue her from this hellhole of a pack, from this shitty situation.

Yet, she would be slapped with another disappointment when the day went uneventfully and Liam only became more and more brazen with his actions to humiliate her.

Sometimes, Liam would treat her as if she was trash, but other times, he would treat her like she was the most precious thing to him, just like now...

Liam bathed Jasmine after he let her be humiliated by letting his pack members throw mud at her when they, once again, walked among the people to see the progress of the construction of the houses they were building after the chaos of that night.

“Don’t cry...” Liam said as he wiped tears from Jasmine’s cheeks, when he put her in the bathtub, after he cleaned her from all the mud on her body and hair. “You are stronger than this, you can take more. Don’t cry...” he consoled her.

“Don’t touch me!” Jasmine snapped at Liam. She swatted his hand from her face. She didn’t want to be touched by him again.

Liam frowned at her reaction, he was crouching down beside the bathtub, as silence ensued between them.

“You shouldn’t have come here and killed those innocent children,” he said in a low voice, looking detached. “You should have never shown yourself ever again.”

Jasmine scoffed, she rubbed her face harshly and looked at Liam with eyes filled with disgust. “There is nothing innocent about those children. Once they grow up, they will turn into monsters like the rest of you.”

“It was you, humans, who have hunted us down and killed us, but you call us monsters?” Liam’s eyes hardened. He jeered, as if this was the worst joke that he ever heard. “You are a bunch of filthy hypocrites.”

“Your kind killed all the people in the Fokosa, the capital city, don’t you remember?” Jasmine gritted her teeth, the water around the bathtub felt warm, but she was still shivering, only feeling cold.

Liam shook his head and laughed. “Of course, I was there and was attacked too.” This was an argument that would lead them nowhere.

After that, Liam left Jasmine alone inside the bathroom, letting her finish cleaning up herself.

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

Chaos looked at Zuri, who was sleeping with her head against the window, while the sky was so dark and there were not many lights except for the lights inside the compartments of this train.

Meanwhile, the wolf was purring softly. It curled her small and furry body in her lap, while Zuri’s hand covered half of her body.

Zuri looked so tired and was deep in sleep. She was not a heavy sleeper, but she indeed became one now. More precisely, ever since she developed a sense of comfort and security whenever she was with Chaos. She let her guard down completely, knowing he would always be there for her to protect her and do whatever was needed for her to be safe.

For a moment, Chaos just stared at Zuri, at her sleeping face or how he noticed that her white hair had grown so long. It cascaded down, almost covering her face.

Chaos was tapping his finger on his lap when all of a sudden, he appeared next to Zuri. He wanted to be close to her and here he was with the sleeping girl beside him.

Gently, Chaos moved Zuri’s head to lean on his shoulder instead and made her feel comfortable to be close to him. He caressed her face and held her hand, knowing that Zuri loved this gesture.

However, when Chaos looked down, he found the little wolf had been woken up and was staring at him now. Her ears perked up and she looked at Chaos with displeasure.

It was clear to see that this little creature didn’t agree with what he did and growled deeply at him to voice out her protest.

Unfortunately, Chaos didn’t appreciate that and silenced her after he moved her to the opposite seat, the same way he moved himself to be close to Zuri.

In the end, the poor wolf could only whimper in silence, since Chaos had shut her down.
