"Do you think I can't avoid it?" Chad frowned and stared at me.My body trembled, slowly shook my head. I still believe that Chad can avoid it; even if it is injured, it will not die, but my body chooses to rush out for some reason. I also knew I might die, but I was more afraid of him dying, even if it was the smallest percentage.Alfine will also be captured if he dies, and my original plan will fall apart. Since entering this dead city, I have always been mentally prepared to make sacrifices. I tried all kinds of ways to please Chad with just one wish: Clara's group would be treated better before I found a chance to let them escape. Then Alfine arrives, and everything is going very well if it is not for the unexpected incident that Kent and Galvin appear to stop.I don't know if Clara's group is dead, but I firmly believe they're still alive. Besides, Alfine was in danger for no reason by me, so even if I die, I have to let him get out of here safely.“So that means you're looking
Kent and Galvin sat at the dining table when I got there.When they saw me coming, they immediately glanced at me, Galvin gave me a friendly greeting, and Kent remained pensive as usual."What is up?" I said softly and pulled up a chair, and sat down.Galvin replied with an unrelated question. “You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? We have breakfast together.”I laughed mockingly, picked up the shiny knife, and stabbed it straight into the beef, blood slowly oozing out from the inside. “I have no interest in having breakfast with someone who wants to kill me.” I glanced over at Kent, only to see his pupils constrict.I threw my fork on the table and stood up. "I'm thinking about our alliance; I don't think it's necessary anymore."Galvin immediately reacted; he pulled my hand back, using a pleasant tone. "Do not get angry. We are now one, indispensable for anyone.”"So what?" I didn't care and then laughed scornfully. “If I continue to stay here, will I one day die at the hands of
Erza POV:Seeing me sitting alone, the female doctor came to talk to me; she was curious. “How are you related to Alpha Chad?”I looked at her, but she hurriedly waved her hand shyly before answering. "Sorry, I asked too delicately; it's okay if you don't want to talk."Seeing her attitude, I guess she misunderstood, and I laughed. “I was brought here as a slave to serve the war.”The female doctor stared at me as if in disbelief; she licked the corner of her lips and said awkwardly. “Can just a slave be treated so well?”I enjoyed it when she continued. “You look at this room; it's only for Alphas. When you were injured, Alpha Chad did not think twice but brought you to this place and let many good doctors come to see your wound. Can't you see how special treatment you get?"I used a tissue to wipe the faint blood on my neck and smiled at the female doctor. “I just saved him, so it's normal for him to be nice to me. Alpha Chad is a man who understands the reason; he also doesn't let
I kept smiling without fear. “If you want to kill, then kill, anyway; I’ve prepared myself for this.”Chad shook his head, his voice calm. “If I wanted to kill you, I would have killed you long ago. But I warn you, be wary of people around. Did you know I almost died?”I frowned. "What do you mean?""The girl just now is the one Galvin installed; if during this morning I do not agree to continue the alliance, she will immediately kill you." Chad closed his eyes and slowly continued. “Here, like it or not, you can only trust me. If even you can't believe me, it's best not to trust or get intimate with anyone. Otherwise, you may die without knowing the cause."“Is there a mistake? I feel Almira….”I was talking when Chad interrupted me. “Don't be so naive; she's just gaining your trust. When you weren't here, she already admitted it.""So where is she now?" I ask."I didn't kill her; I just gave her a warning and threw it back to Galvin." Chad is indifferent.Unexpectedly, Almira was a
My hand trembled slightly and went down to my nose to check her breathing; although very weak, she was still alive. However, if the other man came here in the next few minutes, the living would also become the dead.I couldn't bear to see her like this, so I tried to shake her a few more times, but Irene was like a lamp that had run out of oil; no matter what I called it, I couldn't wake up. I looked up, and the man came closer and closer, cursing as he walked. “Hey, bitch, who doesn't work but hides here on vacation? Do you want to die already?""Wake up Irene, please wake up..." I shook her vigorously, splashing the last water on Irene's face.She finally reacted a little; her heavy eyes lifted, and she gave a weak smile. Even though she was awake but didn't have the strength to get up, she slipped down even thou I powered all my strength to lift her.The man with the whip came over a few more times, staring at us. “Ah, are you guys hiding here, lazy?” As he said that, he swung his
I stayed silent; these words were the same as what Ryan used to say to me. At that time, I was still shallow thinking; I still argued with him and opposed him, but now through many things, thinking about it carefully, sometimes people still have times when they are powerless even if that person is who.My docile attitude has satisfied Chad a bit; he continues. “I gave it to the investigator. Alfine saved them; they are currently in the care of Red River, temporarily out of danger.”I looked up for a moment, the joy coming so suddenly that I couldn't adapt immediately. But in the end, Alfine did; he could keep the children safe.I laughed, and tears fell from my eyes. "Thank God!" I whispered.Chad walked to the window and spoke softly. “Five days later, we have to leave this place.”We?"Where will we go?" I asked with uneasiness.“Second step, approach the Red River.” Chad coldly looked at me warningly. “Don't think about running away; I won't let that happen. Besides, you can't stay
Ryan POV:Living in the dark for too long will immerse people and make them think they belong in that ominous darkness. Like me now, there are times when I think it's okay if I won't step out into the light forever because my morning has been taken away by others. Erza, my only sunshine, has left me, leaving only a bleeding wound in my heart.Even though I sent people looking for her everywhere, there was no news. She was like a cool breeze blowing through my most desperate days, then she merged with the air to let me know she was still there, but there was no way to catch her or see her.I've lived days like hell. I never imagined that I would fall into this dire situation one day, half dead. I was never an alcoholic or a smoker, but now what? This room has nothing else except empty bottles and burned cigarette butts.No, there's one more thing. The smell of blood lingers in the air, the lives taken by these hands. She would continue to scold me for being cold-blooded and cruel if sh
I touched the rim of the wine glass and said calmly. “I lend you an elite force headed by Roger and Evelyn, who will help you. As for the alliance, there is no need.”Alfine remained silent as if thinking about something and finally nodded. “Okay, thank you very much, Alpha.”“Tell me about Erza right away.” I looked at him coldly. "Don't provoke my patience."“Now is not the time, but I have this. Do you recognize it?” Alfine pulled a photograph from his pocket and placed it on the table. “This is the kind of sincerity I show.”I picked up the photo, my heart suddenly throbbing.“Even though the quality is not very good, I guarantee Alpha can see who the girl in the picture is. This photo was taken two weeks ago; is that enough to believe? If you still don't believe it, you can check it out; it's not photoshop, after all." Alfin said.My trembling hand touched half of the girl's face; even in the darkness, her eyes still shone. Those eyes absorbed my soul; I just sat there motionless
