177 I CAN HELP YOU “Actually, I agree to kill them all,” Sebastian, Knox’s right hand man, voiced out his opinion. Of course, he would agree, he had always been a cold blooded one. If he needed to strike, then he would strike hard until his opponent wouldn’t be able to rise again and come up with a a counterattack. However, July couldn’t take such a huge step. Those people, those vicious people with their horrible experiments, were her family. She knew from their informants that Archie…-

176 DON’T DIE “You will disregard all my important advice, won’t you?” Hades asked Zuri, as he laid down on the bed, causing Zuri to settle on the sofa instead, because she refused to talk to him, much less to tell him to get off the bed. Hades wriggled his toes and hummed a strange song that she had never heard, but then she didn’t listen to so many songs in her life. “You will cause trouble again, Blue, if you wake him up. This is really important,” Hades said again, but his…

175 SHUT UP During the entire journey to the frozen lake, Zuri spent her time by sleeping it off and only woke up when July nudged her shoulder. Her eyes immediately turned sharp when she was jolted awake, only when her eyes met with July’s, did she relax slightly. On the other hand, July said nothing about her behavior and told her that they would be landing in ten minutes, as she handed her a warm towel to wipe away her tiredness. Zuri wiped her face with the warm towel and sighed deeply.…

174 KILL THOSE HUMAN “You look excited to see your first love again,” Hades said as he watched Zuri pack all the things that she needed during their flight to the frozen lake. Fortunately, there were not a lot of things that she had, thus she could prepare them at the last minute, while the sky was still so dark out there. “I bet you will grin from ear to ear the moment you meet him,” Hades commented again, as he perched on Zuri’s old study desk. He was teasing her, of course, since…

173 YOU WILL FIND YOUR WAY BACK Today was a very tiring day, where July had to run from one place to another to take care of a few things. This place could still stand because the business that Knox left behind was still running and the profits from it were enough to manage the organization that opposed The Hound. Sometimes, July wondered whether she was doing this because she wanted to irk her father or because she wanted to hold up this place together for when Knox finally returned. Just so…

172 MR. BEAR “I want you to help me.” July straightened her back when she said this, she looked Zuri right in the eyes to see her reaction. “With?” Zuri didn’t show any change in her expression, as she could guess what kind of help that July needed from her. And without beating around the bush, July stated what was in her mind. “To get back the McKeltars.” This was the main topic that they would discuss, she knew that they had this special bond with the McKeltars and it was obvious…

171 GET BACK THE MCKELTAR Zuri didn’t mean to avoid Anne’s advances, though there were a lot of emotions running through her system right now with a lot of things plaguing her mind, but she didn’t find it in herself to hate her. The situation and the circumstances at that time were very complicated and she realized they thought that was the best for her, since she was only a child and her understanding was very limited. However, the thought that Anne would hug her, wrap her arms around her…

170 BLUE “Ms. Williams, I am sure that the young girl is out there, I left her at the gates.” The young man took July to the gate to show her the girl, who asked for her. “She is a shifter. A werewolf, I guess.” July looked at the huge and tall metal gates before her eyes, but couldn’t see any young girl or any other being there. “What is her name?” July asked again, she looked around her, but still couldn’t see anyone there. “Her name is Zuri, she said her name is Zuri,”…

169 A PUNY CHILD (2) Josh, was the name of the man, who was so drunk to even realize that he was hitting a six years old girl, who was crying, begging him to stop, while Eros stood across the room, trying to discern the whole situation. He realized the whole fa?ade of this family on his fourth day to be part of this ‘family’. He hit and kicked Elise whenever he was drunk or even when he was sober or when the woman annoyed him by asking for more money. However, this was the first time for Eros…

168 A PUNY CHILD “I am sorry, dear, but, I am already dead, I can’t be more dead than this.” Hades shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly and then flashed her his eerie smile. If only Zuri knew how to get rid of this creature, she would have done anything to find peace without him being around her all the time. She didn’t realize when it started, but Hades had been following her recently and there was nothing she could do to make him stop, since being mad was no longer working, she could only…
