188 WELCOME TO THE PARTY
Gael came right away to where Chaos was, once he managed to free Nathen, Sebastian and the other three men there.
Everything happened so fast and a little bit confusing when he was thrown back to this realm. The pull that Chaos made, which forced him to wake up was so strong and it only happened when Blue was close to him.
This was one of the reasons why Knox made the little girl stay in her uncle’s pack, since it was impossible for her to come to this place.
However, what had happened? Why was she here?
Gael watched with a deep frown when he found Chaos bleeding. He was laying down on the ground, in his own blood.
How could he be bleeding like that? He was not supposed to be bleeding.
But then, he was struck by how Blue looked like right now; she had grown into a beautiful young girl. She was no longer a little girl.
How old was she?
How long has it been?
.....
There were a lot of questions in his head, and yet, there were more important things that they should get done now.
“We need to go from here,” Gael said, as he put his hand on her shoulder.
But then, she swatted his hand away rather harshly, while glaring at him. “Don’t touch me.” She looked ferocious, as she backed away from him.
“Blue, it’s me,” Gael said in confusion to see her reaction. “It’s okay, it will be alright, we will take Chaos to safety, okay...”
Blue didn’t seem to hear him, she looked at him with... repulsion? Disgust? Gael couldn’t put a finger on what emotions were running through her right now.
“We need to go from here, Blue,” Gael spoke to her in a softer tone, as he watched her struggle to keep her attention on him and glanced at Chaos occasionally, who was being carried away by those men. “Come on.”
Gael stretched out his hand to help her stand up, but Blue didn’t accept it. She pushed herself up. She didn’t look like the same little girl that Gael used to know.
What was wrong with her? Something must have happened for her to change so drastically like this.
And that was the time when Gael saw something on her neck. It looked like a bruise, but he knew exactly what it was...
====================
Eros couldn’t help it. He was not given time to think about what he was doing. The force within him was too strong and he was unable to suppress the sudden urge, as his beast came to the surface.
He lost it and the consequences were so dire.
The first thing that he realized once he gained his consciousness was the blood on his hands, shirts, legs and then Josh and Biel’s body before his eyes in grotesque condition.
He was sure they were already dead even without close inspection, since no human would be alive in such a state where their body and limbs were torn apart.
They looked like they were just attacked by a dozen wild animals, which was quite right.
But a moment later, when he had calmed down a bit, Eros remembered Emily. The little girl was watching him when all of that was happening.
His head immediately snapped in the direction where she was standing before this horrible thing happened and to his horror, she was still standing there, with her hazel eyes frozen, at the horrendous sight in the middle of this dinning room.
Ignoring his exhaustion and trembling body, Eros stood up and walked carefully toward her. He didn’t want to startle the little girl and let her think he would attack her.
“Emily,” Eros called her name and blocked her line of sight, so she could stop watching that scene. He didn’t know what to say when those big doe eyes shifted to him instead.
There was silence between them, until she began sobbing. It started with a small hiccup and then ended up in a crying mess.
“Emily, I am sorry,” Eros said, he knelt down before her and then put his hand on her head, to pat her, but to his surprise, Emily hugged his waist instead and cried into his bloody shirt.
“Don’t leave me...” the little girl said between her cries.
======================
“Let her go.”
There was a cold voice coming from behind Knox when he held Jasmine in his grip and he could see from July’s expression that she didn’t like this intruder at all.
Slowly, Knox turned around and saw six men behind him, but his eyes fixed on the alpha. Of course, he knew who was that, since the alpha was quite recognizable.
“Do you know them?” Knox asked July, while still holding Jasmine. One reckless move and he would snap her neck.
“Yes,” July replied rigidly. “Jackass.”
Knox chuckled when he heard that, how he missed that smart mouth of hers and her snarky comments. Damn. He wanted that mouth on him so bad.
“I don’t mean any harm. I just want to take my mate back.” Liam raised his hands and looked Knox right in his eyes when he added, “Practically speaking, I am the one who woke you up.”
Knox raised his brows when he heard that. He knew that this was not the time for Chaos to return to this realm. He was forced to wake up.
However, on the other hand, July’s concern laid on the fact that Jasmine was a shifter’s mate.
“Is she really your mate?” July asked Liam incredulously and could see from the corner of her eyes, her twin giving her a nasty look.
“Yes, she is,” Liam said with certainty. “Now, if you may, I will take my leave with my mate.”
“Wow...” July whistled. “Welcome to the party my sister. How is it to date a shifter?” she chuckled lightly, as her eyes lit up.
