Chapter 186
186 BLUE
Chaos said nothing when Zuri waved her hand in front of his face. She could see her own fingers visibly shaking, as there were a lot of emotions that ran through her heart right now.
How could this be possible? Zuri gritted her teeth when Chaos followed the movement of her hand and then grabbed her wrist all of a sudden.
His speed was incredible and his palm was so hot against her skin, but it was not enough to burn her. However, he probably forgot about his own strength, as he squeezed Zuri’s wrist too hard and the sound of broken bones could be heard in this silent night.
Dust, dirt and ashes surrounded the two of them, as a charcoal-like smell filled the air. As far as you can see, the initial white ground, because of the snow, had turned black and the atmosphere was very humid.
“Argh,” Zuri whimpered when she felt her wrist was broken by his pressure, and as fast as he grabbed her hand, he let her go immediately. Staring at her right now, but still that pair of dark eyes were so disturbing as they looked so empty.
Zuri retracted her hand and cradled it against her chest. She looked at Chaos with eyes filled with tears.
Her wrist hurt, of course, but there was something else that was more painful than this and that brought her to tears. She tried to bite her bottom lip to prevent herself from sobbing. She didn’t want to meet him in this crying mess, but it was hard to suppress what she was feeling right now.
Before her eyes, Chaos tilted his head slightly, as if he heard her soft whimpers and then opened his mouth, but there was no word that came out of his lips.
Zuri waited for what he would say, but it seemed he had not only lost his sight, but also his voice. It pained her greatly to see him like this.
.....
Hades had warned her to not wake him up, because she didn’t know what kind of Chaos, or how he would look like when he was forced to wake up from his recuperation.
However, Zuri didn’t do that. She didn’t force him to wake up, she didn’t wake him up. She didn’t do anything.
She wouldn’t do that if she knew that Chaos would wake up in this condition.
He was sightless and....
But then there was a single word that came out of his lips.
“Blue...” he called her name.
He knew it was her, though he couldn’t see her, he knew she was in pain and tears, even though she tried to hide it from him.
“Blue,” he called for her again, stretching out his hands to touch her, to feel her close to him.
However, out of instinct, Zuri backed away, she flinched when Chaos’ hand was too close to her face, she couldn’t bear to imagine his skin on hers and this fact brought another pain.
“Blue.” And he kept calling her name. He was at a loss. She was so close, but she refused him.
Chaos’ eyebrows slightly furrowed when he heard her movement, as she moved away from him. His jaw stiffened when he heard it again, as he felt she was getting away from him.
Therefore, with the same speed, Chaos moved forward and then grabbed her small body, precisely. He pulled her close to him and realized there was something different with her.
She was not a child anymore. Her scent smelled sweeter and her body was trembling, struggling to get away from him, but he refused to let her go...
===================
“Shoot me,” Jasmine smirked at her twin sister, as she pointed a gun at her head, while the other two men, who were supposed to escort her away from this place, were lying on the ground, unconscious.
July indeed didn’t receive the same training like Jasmine, but it didn’t mean she was hopeless, she wouldn’t lead the black organization that Knox left behind and gain their respect if she was a good- for- nothing woman.
“Do you think I will not?” July asked her, she tilted her head and smirked triumphantly.
They were so distracted by the loud explosion sound from the lake and the fire that burned the whole site all of a sudden and July used that moment to escape from her handcuffs. Credits to Sebastian, who had taught her that trick.
No one knew how many people managed to survive that or whether they all had died by now, but the only thing in July’s mind was Zuri.
She needed to get the girl. There was no way she let her die. She couldn’t imagine that.
“No, you will not,” Jasmine said arrogantly, but then the sound of the gunshot rang through the night, as Jasmine fell to the ground, wailing in pain. July had shot her left leg and blood oozed out from her wound. “Fuck you!”
“Fuck me?” July smirked. “Sister, you think too highly of yourself if you assume I will not shoot you.”
Jasmine lifted her chin defiantly, her lips trembled as she tried to suppress the pain, as her breathing became ragged with anger.
“And then what? Do you want to kill me?” she asked July.
“Why should I? Death is easy.” July was about to say something else, when her eyes caught some movement from the corner of her eye. Out of instinct, she pointed her gun toward the intruder.
However, the closer that figure came to her sight, the faster July felt her heart beating.
It was impossible, right?
It was not him, right? Her eyes were just playing tricks on her, right?
Yet, the closer he approached her, the lower the sound of her denial was, until it was only a whisper.
July was speechless and didn’t know what to do, but then Jasmine wailed all of a sudden. “Knox, please help me, jasmine wants to kill me...” Jasmine said.
