*****************

Gael didn’t think he would experience this pain ever again. Now, he just felt like laughing at himself while screaming out to the world how foolish he had been to fall into the same situation twice.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

This was so f*cked up.

“Damn,” he kept saying that and laughed like a maniac, while Blue sat beside him, looking at him with concern in her hazel eyes. “Damn. I am so stupid. A fool who doesn’t learn anything.”

His laugh echoed throughout her bedroom and this would make anyone who heard him furrow their brows deeply.

Gael was laughing and shedding tears at the same time, leaving the little girl confused as to what was going on with the creature beside her.

She kept quiet and let him vent out his emotions, while the smell of his blood was the only thing that concerned her the most.

.....

He laughed until he was out of breath and fell to both of his limbs. But a few minutes later, he just sprawled onto the floor, with blood still oozing out of his wounded palm.

“Can you at least do something to stop the bleeding?” Blue pointed her finger at his palm. “You know right, my senses are very sensitive.” She was a shifter after all, it was in her nature.

“Let it bleed,” he said in a low voice, while his eyes stared at the ceiling. He was completely a mess. “Blue... do you think I am wrong?”

Blue didn’t answer him because she didn’t understand why he asked that.

“Do you think it’s wrong for me to marry this girl?” he asked her and kept rambling about it for at least thirty minutes while Blue just sat there and said nothing, as she was having a hard time understanding what his problem actually was.

Gael stopped and stared at Blue for a bit longer.

“I think you don’t understand what I said,” he chuckled and sighed deeply before he closed his eyes and tried to chase away the pain from his heart, but it was too hard for him. He needed time. What Lise did shocked him to the core.

Blue hugged her legs and brought them close to her chest. While resting her chin on top of her knees, she watched Gael. She kept her eyes on his blood, so it wouldn’t stain her dress.

But when she realized his presence, she immediately raised her head.

He was standing there, tall and cold, surrounded with the indifferent demeanor that always emanated from him whenever Blue saw him.

“Blue, go to Anne,” Chaos ordered the little girl, but his eyes were on Gael, who was laying on the floor. “Stay with her.”

Blue wanted to refuse his order, but there was something in his dark blue eyes that made the little girl keep quiet and do what she was told.

“Okay,” she said, standing up and walking toward the door, careful not to step on the blood before closing the door behind her.

The last thing she saw was; Chaos staring down at Gael. But the man still had his eyes closed, breathing heavily.

After that, Blue went to look for Anne.

“What do you want from me?” Gael asked, with his eyes shut. “I don’t want to talk to you now, my mood is not really good.”

“Do you want me to get rid of that feeling?”

Gael didn’t answer that question. This was the second time Chaos asked him this and he was not sure that he wanted this pain to disappear, since it would erase his feelings for Lise as well.

He couldn’t imagine what he would become if his feelings toward Lise disappeared.

“Nah, I love this pain.” He waved his bloody hand and groaned when he moved his body and sat down. Their eyes met and Chaos could see it.

“I object to your wedding with that girl.”

Gael’s jaw hardened. “You promised me that you will not interfere with my personal life.”

“I only said I’m objecting to your wedding, nothing about murdering your girl.”

Chaos walked across the room and looked out at the night sky through the window. It was a full moon night and the sky was bright.

“Someone called you?” Chaos asked.

Gael frowned. “Yes, someone from Silver River pack.”

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

Gael would always be surprised with how much information that Chaos could gather. How did he know about it when it was only him and his assistant, who knew about the phone calls.

“I forgot, I guess.” Gael stared at his blood. “After all, there is nothing important about it.”

“What did they say?”

“They want Blue. Apparently, the little girl is their alpha’s niece.” Gael lifted his head and looked at Chaos profoundly. “I like that girl, but will you give Blue to them?”

Chaos didn’t answer that question, as he stared at the moon.

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

By the time Anthony and Mateo arrived at a building, which was Knox’s base of secret organization, the sun was so bright.

They arrived at noon and there were a lot of people there. They were humans and the two shifters were simply curious why a creature like Knox wanted to have anything to do with those humans.

It was a two storey building, which from the outside looked like a big storehouse, with two more buildings like this behind it.

People around this area only knew this place was a private property and was indeed a storehouse, but they didn’t know the details of what were inside.

“I am looking for Knox,” Mateo said. “Tell him the alpha from the Silver River pack is here.”

The man that he talked to, frowned his brows, not even able to grasp the meaning of the terms ‘the alpha from the Silver River pack’.

Therefore, Anthony stepped forward and told him. “Inform Knox that Anthony is here, he knows me.”

The man didn’t believe that, but he wouldn’t take a chance, so he called Sebastian, Knox’s second in command.
