Chapter 281: 281

281 ZURI WAS PISSED

“We need to talk.” That was the first thing that Eros said when he entered the room. His already dark blue eyes turned a few shades darker, as he stared at everyone inside the room.

The alpha, the gamma and another three warriors were already inside. They seemed to have just given the alpha a report on the next city in which they were planning to expand their territory, but of course, once again, humans interrupted their plans.

On the other hand, Liam raised his brows, while the other warriors were about to berate him for being rude.

“At the very least, you can knock on the door, right?” Liam chastised him lightly and then waved his hand to dismiss the other four people. “You can leave now, keep me updated with the situation there.”

All of them nodded and talked a few more things before they got out of the room, walking past Eros, but not before throwing him a nasty look first. They didn’t like the way this young beta talked so arrogantly to their alpha.

“What do you want?” Liam asked, he sat down on his chair and waved at the empty chair in front of him. “You can sit if you want.”

Eros ignored that, he didn’t want to make himself comfortable, since he wanted to keep this conversation as short as possible.

“I have already let you know a few times to not involve my sister in any of this,” Eros cut straight to the chase. He looked so mature for his age. No one dared to look down on him ever since he got to his current position, the beta of this pack.

“What do you mean?” Liam tilted his head innocently and Eros hated it when someone played dumb in front of him.

.....

“You know what I meant, Liam.” This time, Eros called him directly with his name, dismissing his title, showing how serious he was right now.

“Calm down, boy.” Liam raised his brows. He was annoyed because this young lycan seemed to overstep his boundaries, but he was amused at the same time by how brazen he became right now.

This was how he wanted his beta to be, but it seemed he needed to assert his dominance more over him, since he couldn’t let him stray out of his control.

“I am not your boy,” Eros growled deeply, as he grew up, his voice started to change and became deeper and darker.

Liam could see how feral the beast inside of Eros was. He liked it. He wanted him to be more brutal than this. He knew that he needed to nurture him more, so he would be useful for his long- term plans.

“Okay, my bad.” Liam raised both of his hands and then stood up from his seat, before he walked across the room to approach Eros. “I just let Emily stay with Jasmine and the babies, since they both are humans. She needs to interact with her kind as well.”

“She doesn’t need that,” Eros said sternly.

“She said that to you?” Liam stood in front of him, he towered over him when he did so.

Hearing that question, Eros didn’t have a definite answer, since Emily had never mentioned that to him. “She wants to stay with me.”

“Of course, she wants to stay with you,” Liam agreed. “But, she is not your sister.”

“She is my sister,” Eros growled, his eyes hardened, as if Liam had said something inappropriate about Emily.

“No matter what you say or what you want to believe, she is not your sister. That’s the fact.” Liam didn’t back down, now all the mischievousness that he had shown earlier was gone. He looked more serious right now. “You are just making her dependent on you.”

Eros wanted to say that there was nothing wrong with that, but Liam seemed to know what he was going to say, thus he beat him to it.

“But, what will happen when you find your mate? We are shifters, you are destined to be with someone and she is clearly not yours.”

“She is my sister, I don’t think of her like that.” Eros narrowed his eyes, he knew where this conversation would go.

“Of course, you do not.” Liam straightened his body and looked at Eros with bright eyes, but the young lycan knew there was a hidden agenda behind his words and smile.

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

Zuri opened the car window and let the crispy and cold wind enter the limited space, playing with her long white hair, caressing her skin. She needed to stop at a gas station to buy a few things for their journey ahead.

The sky was still dark and the gloomy clouds blocked the sunlight. It seemed it would be yet another rainy day. It was raining so much in this part of this state and this only made Chaos look even somber.

It appalled Zuri to see how vivid it was for the darkness inside of Chaos to grow stronger by the day.

There were some moments, when he looked like someone that she didn’t recognize at all and this scared her.

“Where are you going?” Chaos stirred awake in his sleep when he heard the sound of the engine shutting down. His dark eyes met hers and there was no sleepiness at all, as if he had not been sleeping for the past few hours.

“I will go buy some drinks and snacks,” Zuri said. “The next resting stop will be hours away.” She frowned when Chaos got out of the car. “Where are you going?”

Zuri followed him out of the car.

It was clear to see that he wanted to go with her, even though he didn’t need to do that, because he looked exhausted.

“You don’t need to come with me,” Zuri said, as she walked beside him to the small convenience store, while White was happily waiting inside the car. She let the windows down, so she wouldn’t suffocate inside.

Chaos didn’t say anything, he just grabbed Zuri’s hand and then walked ahead. Something seemed to be bothering him ever since the incident in the restaurant and the stern look that Chaos gave to her after she told him about what had happened when she went to rent the car and the black butterfly, told Zuri that he knew more than he showed her.

“Do you want coffee?” Zuri glanced at Chaos, who was skimming the entire convenience store. He looked alert, thus she nudged his hip to make him pay a little attention to her. “What do you want?” She repeated her question.

“Anything,” Chaos said, he looked nonchalant about whatever Zuri would get and gave her his card to pay after she had filled the trolley to the brim with various snacks and drinks. She loved snacking during their roadtrips.

However, when they were about to pay for the items, Zuri realized one thing; from the corner of her eyes, she could see the dark butterfly again. The Ageha butterfly. This was the name of that creature. Chaos told her about this.

And if Zuri noticed that, of course, Chaos could as well. His body tensed up and he appeared right next to her, too close, until she could feel his hot skin against her own when he grabbed her hand with one of his large ones and pushed the trolley with the other, as if there was nothing wrong with this whole situation.

“Stay close to me,” Chaos whispered to Zuri.

There were only four people in this convenience store, aside from Zuri and Chaos. One was the cashier, he was a lanky man who looked so pale, while the other two were a couple in their twenties and the last one was a pregnant woman.

None of those four people looked so intimidating or would seem to be able to pose a threat, but Chaos seemed to be on his guard, especially when things were not always what they seemed to be.

Chaos pushed their trolley to the cashier when the pregnant woman was paying her bill, but then the couple came behind Chaos and Zuri.

All of them were queuing in the line now, with two strangers behind them. It was a bad idea to have your back to your enemies. It was the first thing Zuri learned when she was in alpha Xavier’s pack.

It took some time for the pregnant woman to pay for her bread and a few cartons of milk, before she moved aside, yet when she turned around, she had a knife in her hand, which she directed at Zuri.

It happened so fast, but it didn’t mean Zuri couldn’t dodge it, but Chaos took action first, by grabbing the knife and shoving the woman away.

Zuri almost felt sorry for the pregnant woman before she remembered that she almost killed her and then turned aloof.

She didn’t have time to think about it because not long after that, the couple behind them also suddenly turned aggressive and charged toward them with guns in their hands.

There were two gun shot sounds when two silver bullets aimed at Zuri and Chaos, but before the bullets could hurt anyone, they stopped midair and dropped to the ground helplessly.

Oh, great... they really thought they could take Chaos down with silver bullets...

“What a pleasant surprise to see you again, Chaos.” This was the voice of a woman that Zuri recognized, since they had met with each other before.

She turned around and there, the same woman, who had blown away their penthouse and almost got her killed for the second time by falling from such height.

“Why did this lewd woman come to you again?” Zuri was pissed.
