Chapter 337

337 YOU ARE TOO KIND

Beside the alluring woman were two white wolves, standing on guard, as if the two wolves were her protectors. Zuri assumed the howling that she heard earlier was from these wolves.

Even now, she still could hear the howls, reverberating in her mind, calling to her own beast, yet she was not sure what that meant.

Who was she?

Zuri lifted her head to try and smell her scent, in hopes she could tell what kind of creature she actually was, yet she couldn’t catch anything, except the smell of burning ground, combustion and ashes.

“Long time no see, Blue?” The woman’s voice was very enchanting, and she looked at her gently. “Or should I call you Zuri now?”

“Who are you?” Zuri blurted out the question that she wanted to ask. This alluring woman knew her, but she couldn’t recall when they had met before this.

Was it during her journey with Chaos? Was she one of the creatures that they had encountered before?

Zuri couldn’t remember it at all.

“Who am I?” The woman smiled softly at her and then took a step forward to get closer to her. “Should we go to a quieter place to talk for a bit? It is a little bit noisy here. Don’t you think so?”

.....

Zuri followed the woman’s gaze and knew exactly what she meant. The noises were from the dragon and also the members of the organization that were rushing in their direction.

In a matter of minutes, this place would become a battlefield, as those people would try to take down the monstrous dragon.

“Should we go now?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

But, before Zuri could answer that, she saw this blinding white light that hurt her eyes which forced her to close them, but she held onto Chaos tightly nonetheless. She didn’t want to lose him. She was not going to lose him.

And the last thing that she saw was this blazing, warm light that engulfed her and the world around her...

“You need to stop it,” Emily said to Jasmine, as she tended to the baby.

Jasmine was adamant on breastfeeding her children and as long as Emily was there too to supervise her and make sure that she wouldn’t do anything harmful to the babies, she was allowed to enter the nursery room and breastfeed them.

Aside from the library, the only place where Jasmine could be free of her guards was here.

“I don’t understand what you are saying,” Jasmine said flatly, even though she knew what Emily meant by her words. She caught her in the act when she was with Darius in the library.

“You know what I am saying, you know how dangerous it can be if the alpha knows about it.” Emily changed Emma’s diaper and cleaned up the mess, while talking to Jasmine.

“He has gone missing for days,” Jasmine said. “I need to make my own safety net.” She looked at baby Aidan in her arms, but there was no love in her eyes. These babies were not something that she wanted in her life. She was forced to have them and every time she saw the babies, it reminded her of what she had gone through.

“What do you mean by your own safety net?” Emily took baby Emma and then carried her to give some comfort, because she was crying now. “You are using him? You are using Darius for your own benefit?”

Jasmine took a deep breath, she tilted her head to look at Emily, as if she was trying to pick her next words.

“You should try thinking about this too, if you want to survive that is. If you want to live.” Jasmine pinched Aidan’s nose because the baby bit on her nipple. She was tempted to pinch it harder and suffocate him, but decided to stop when he let go and now he was crying. “Do you really think the members of this pack will give you a shit when they know Eros died?”

Emily and Jasmine had talked about this a few times already, but for Emily, what Jasmine did was too extreme. She couldn’t find someone to give her protection just like what Jasmine did.

Probably, it was because they had different experiences. They walked different paths before they came to this point after all.

If only Emily walked in Jasmine’s path, perhaps, she wouldn’t be this na?ve to face the reality before her.

“If it is not you who protects yourself, then who will?” Jasmine had made it clear for Emily. Even though they were the only humans in this den of wolves, she would throw her to them if it meant she could survive.

The only thing that she could give her was advice. No matter how cruel and immoral it sounded, you need to survive whatever that was thrown in your way if you want to live.

“So, why do you want to survive if you have to live your life like that?” Emily gave Emma to Jasmine, as she took Aidan and comforted the baby.

Jasmine looked at her daughter. She saw her golden eyes, even now, she couldn’t understand why she had those golden orbs. She had a rare color for eyes.

“To get my revenge,” Jasmine said simply, as she breastfed Emma. The baby looked soft and fragile. She imagined throwing her to the floor really hard. Would that kill her? “If they think they can live their lives comfortably after what they have done to me, they are really wrong.”

Emily gulped down, it was clear to see by now that she was not a confrontational person. “Why are you talking about this to me? Don’t you fear I will talk to someone about this?”

Jasmine lifted her head and then looked at Emily, there was this mocking smile tugging on the corners of her lips, every time she heard her speaking about snitching on herself.

“You will not,” she said with conviction. “You are too kind, almost stupid.”
