Chapter 275: 275

275 THANK YOU FOR TAKING CARE OF ME

“Poor you, little girl...” Hades murmured. His eyes told Zuri there was something else, something deeper and darker that he knew, but didn’t share with her.

However, before Zuri could ask what he meant by that, all of a sudden Chaos appeared between them and there were bright flames that licked Hades’ whole body, burning him ‘alive’.

Chaos literally burned him with only a glance, as soon as he made his appearance there.

Meanwhile, Zuri was pulled behind Chaos’ back and as everything went so fast, she couldn’t do anything. As the flames burned the god of the underworld, there was a soft gasp before his body fell off the railing and disappeared into the darkness. They were on the fifth floor balcony of the hotel.

“Chaos!” Zuri gasped in shock and then ran over to the railing to see where the devil had gone, but it was only the light from the garden lamps that could be seen illuminating the thick bushes down below.

“What are you doing?!” Chaos yelled at Zuri, as he pulled her away from the railing, because he thought it was dangerous. Anything could happen and she might fall from there. Did she lose her mind? Did she forget what happened years ago when she fell from the building and died?!

The memory of that would forever be etched in his mind.

“You burned him! You killed him!” Zuri was upset, but once the words left her lips, she knew immediately they didn’t sound right. There was no way Hades would die. He would be burned, stabbed, slayed, stoned, but he would never die.

“I will kill him a thousand times more if he comes near you again!” Chaos snapped at Zuri, his dark eyes filled with so much anger. He was not mad at her, but he was mad that she met with Hades behind his back, alone with the devil when she knew very well how dangerous it was.

.....

Chaos didn’t want Zuri to be away from him or out of his sight, but she sneaked out and met Hades.

“Chaos, he doesn’t have any bad intentions.” Zuri shook her head when she saw Chaos narrowing his eyes dangerously, since her reason sounded like she was defending the devil. It simply sounded wrong. “He told me about Aaron. Hades warned me about him. He said that Aaron is targeting you.”

This news didn’t make Chaos look better, if anything, he looked even more furious than before.

“Don’t go away on your own. Don’t you dare to be out of my sight again,” Chaos said those words coldly. He emphasized every word that he said, so Zuri could hear them clearly.

“Did you just threaten me?” Zuri couldn’t believe this. This was the first time for Chaos to treat her like this.

“I am warning you, Blue. Don’t cross me again.” Chaos gritted his teeth and his grip on Zuri’s arms tightened. It was painful to say the least, but she couldn’t shake him off her.

“Chaos, Hades came to warn us about Aaron,” Zuri reiterated her words. “Whatever darkness that is inside of you, whatever monster that has been chained within you, he wants that to breakloose.”

Chaos looked at Zuri sternly. The look in his eyes slightly changed. He was in pain now, as if he was struggling to hold onto the last rope of his sanity.

“Chaos, you are hurting me,” Zuri whined. She winced as the internal struggle that happened within him right now made his grip on her tighten even more.

Chaos snapped, he held his breath and slowly released Zuri from his grip and took a step back. He was afraid that he would hurt her even more without him knowing it.

Zuri was wearing a tanktop and sweatpants, she didn’t have time to grab her jacket when she walked out of the room, because she didn’t want to lose Hades, but now, because of that, Chaos’ handprints could be seen on both of her arms, though it didn’t last longer than five seconds, but their redness was glaring enough in the first few seconds.

“He is not hurting me, Chaos,” Zuri said gently. She took a step closer to him, to reduce the distance between them. “He came to warn us about Aaron. Do you know who he is?”

Of course, Chaos knew who that was. He knew that Aaron had been following them. He took interest in him and definitely, he had set his eyes on Zuri as well.

It was well known how much Chaos cared about his shifter companion. All the dark creatures that he released when he saved Zuri’s life, saw her as a target to get to him.

“I know,” Chaos said simply. He extended his arms and pulled Zuri close to him, this time he did it with gentleness, so as not to hurt her anymore. “Stay close to me, I feel like I am going to go insane if you are not within my sight.”

The words that Chaos said caressed her ears gently. He sounded genuinely scared because Zuri was not beside him when he opened his eyes.

Actually, it was the wolf, White, who climbed the bed and nudged him until he woke up, only then did he realize that Zuri was not there.

“Oh, you brought her too,” Zuri said in surprise when she felt soft fur caressing her leg and when she looked down, she found White was nuzzling her.

Well, Chaos didn’t think long when he disappeared to look for Zuri, therefore, since the wolf was near him, he didn’t leave her alone inside the room, and brought her as well.

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

“Happy birthday,” Eros said, as he let Emily blow the twelve candles on top of her birthday cake.

He had asked the people in the kitchen to make this cake for Emily and gave it to her once he was done with his day and had more time to spend with her.

“Thank you,” Emily said cheerfully, her eyes glistened with tears, as she bent down her body and blew all the candles. She made a wish, of course, even though none of it had ever happened, but she believed one day her wishes would be fulfilled.

Emily smiled brightly at Eros. Both of them always celebrated her birthday together, ever since Eros was adopted by their parents.

It was only after they ended up in this pack that Eros could give her a birthday cake, although the size was not satisfactory enough to call it a birthday cake.

“I have something for you,” Eros said, as he pulled out a necklace for her with a red stone pendant.

They were sitting near the river, the sacred river where Eros was supposed to be appointed as the beta of this pack. The ceremony was postponed because of the attack by the humans and also the ceremony for the Luna.

When Jasmine was marked by the alpha, it automatically made her the luna of the pack, despite the disdain that was thrown her way by the members of the pack, as the Alpha’s order was absolute. No one could disobey him.

“Where did you get this?” Emily’s eyes glittered with joy when she saw the necklace, it was so beautiful and red was her favorite color.

It was because Eros knew this so he gave the necklace to Emily.

“I found it when I went to the nearby city.”

Most of the time, because alpha Liam wanted to expand their territory, they would go to the nearby abandoned cities that had been ransacked by the rogues or any supernatural creatures without pack form like them.

There, they would find abandoned houses, stores, shops and anything that was left by humans when they went to the other side of the country, Lucinda city, to find shelter.

“Thank you, Eros,” Emily said timidly. She leaned over and then kissed him on the cheek. She stuffed back the necklace into his hands and then turned around. “Can you put it on for me?”

Eros watched how Emily gathered her long hair aside and showed her neck. It was a sign of vulnerability for a shifter to show their neck, especially in Emily’s position. Not only was her neck on full display for him, but she also turned around with her back facing him.

It was a big no no in a battle and yet, this was not a battle...

Eros pulled the necklace gently around her neck and then clasped it. “Done,” he said softly, as Emily turned around and then looked at her new necklace with a big smile on her lips.

This would be the first birthday gift that she received as long as she lived and she would treasure it with all of her heart.

“Thank you so much, Eros,” Emily said, as she hugged him tightly and buried her face in his chest.

Eros was fourteen this year, but he looked almost as tall as the other warriors in this pack, not to mention with his position right now as the beta, he asserted no one in this pack could touch Emily. He would flip if he heard there was someone messing with her.

Thankfully, with Eros’ cold demeanor and his ability to build his own name, no one was daring enough to cross him by treating Emily poorly.

“I am glad you like it.” Eros rested his chin on top of her head and heard her giggling.

“Of course, I like it. I like everything that you give to me. Thank you for taking care of me.”
