母女的秘密授课

He wouldn’t even budge if she were to stab him if that was what it would take for him to be with her.

On the other hand, Zuri wiped her eyes roughly when a tear fell on her cheek. “I will claw your face!” She hated it when she had to cry. She didn’t want to be seen as someone weak, but she couldn’t help feeling that way right now. She wanted to be with Chaos. She wanted him to fight for them.

Chaos knew what Zuri felt and it hurt him to see how she cried or how she tried to bottle up her emotions in front of him. “Come here please, I want to be close to you,” Chaos pleaded with her.

He took a step closer and when Zuri didn’t back away like earlier, he extended his arms and hugged her. He wrapped her small body in his embrace, rested his chin on her shoulder and whispered something into her ear, but she was sobbing right now, thus Chaos was not sure whether she heard that or not.

Zuri cried so hard until she was hyperventilating, as she wrapped her arms so tight around his body, as if she didn’t do that, Chaos would disappear from before her eyes.

“I will be here, Blue... I am here,” Chaos kept saying this. He sighed deeply, as he caressed her back and then rested his chin on top of her head, waiting for her to calm down.

Zuri was trying to gather her composure, but it was hard to do so as the scary thoughts of losing Chaos kept plaguing her mind.

She didn’t want to lose him ever, but the fate that was waiting for them was so cruel. It kept following the same pattern and she was afraid it would repeat all over again, especially with Chaos’ current condition.

.....

He was getting weaker, but his dark side only got stronger and this imbalance would cause trouble in the future.

Zuri was not sure what kind of trouble that they would get into in the future, but she had a bad feeling about it, especially when Chaos lost himself, he forgot about everything, including Zuri.

Chaos himself also realized this. He was well aware of the catastrophe that he could create once he really lost it.

It took some time for Zuri to stop crying and when she was a little bit calmed down, she lifted her head and then used Chaos’ shirt to wipe her tears and snot. She wasn’t even shy when she did that, as if she was trying to get back at him, to show him how annoyed she was.

On the other hand, Chaos didn’t mind it at all, it would only take a flick of his finger to get it cleaned again.

“I am hungry,” Zuri said, pouting her lips. It had been a long time since the last time she had cried so hard like this, until she didn’t realize that crying could drain all of your energy and leave you starving.

“Let’s find something for you to eat,” Chaos said softly, he helped her to wipe away her tears and then took her hand.

“I don’t want to eat anything raw,” Zuri said, frowning when she looked in the direction Chaos started pulling her to.

This vast land with velvety grass beneath their feet was bordered by a forest, where Zuri could see huge trees barricading her vision, leaving whatever behind those trees in the darkness.

“What do you mean you don’t want to eat anything raw?” Chaos didn’t understand her way of thinking. She was crying a few moments ago, but now she looked fierce as usual, especially when she frowned at the forest in front of them.

“I have been on this mission in the past,” Zuri said in a small voice, her brows furrowed even deeper, as she recalled the events of the past.

It was the time when she needed to be in the forest to fight the humans, the members of the Hound, as they tried to kill them all, before they could reach their pack.

Alpha Xerxes got a tip about it and sure enough, in the forest that they had to cross to reach their pack, they saw a lot of armed people camping, as they planned to attack the pack early in the morning.

Therefore, to find a way to counter their attack, a lot of warriors stayed in the bushes, keeping their distance from humans, but at the same time, they were waiting for the signal to attack from the alpha.

“We ate raw meat,” Zuri grumbled. “During times like that, we will stay in our beast form, therefore, there is no way we can eat cooked food. We had to hunt small animals and ate them raw,” Zuri said with disgust evident in her expression. As she talked about this, she felt like she could feel the blood and those poor rabbit’s flesh in her mouth. “I had to eat raw meat for two days straight. Ugh!”

Hearing that, Chaos chuckled and this surprised Zuri, since it had been a long time since she heard that sound.

“What is so funny?” Zuri asked, though she was still in daze, staring at the man beside her.

“I will never do that to you,” Chaos said. “There is a village behind the forest, we will go there. I can’t use my power because I don’t feel stable enough to do it, so we need to walk to reach one of the restaurants they have.”

“Oh,” Zuri mumbled, but then she lifted her head with concern in her voice. “Do you have money?”
