"Fenris, where are we going?" I asked again when he didn't utter a word. "We still need to go back and get the fruit!"We were in the woods. I didn't know who could be roaming around here, most probably, not only us. Dark Summoners just attacked Atasha and her cousins. We couldn't just travel further away."And we will go back later. Don't think too much about it," he said, still running."Where are we going then? What are you planning?""No plans, just running with my love."I slapped his chest, but I hugged my arms back to his neck quickly."Shut up!" I scoffed. "Of course, you're planning something! What is it?""Just enjoy the adventure, love. It's not every time that we will have the time to bond like this. I know I've been busy lately, and now I'm making it up to you." His ran got slower, thankfully. I was like being carried by the earthquake a while ago.I smiled af

My chest squirmed as Claude continued filling the room with creepy laughter. Fenris let go of my hand and walked nearer to Claude, quickly, he punched Claude's abdomen."What's funny, huh?!" Fenris gritted his teeth and punched him again.I swallowed deeply before I grabbed Fenris' arms and pulled him slightly away from Claude. The laughter finally faded, but Claude's eyes were still on me while he was smirking like a creepy guy across the street."What are you smiling at?!" Fenris almost hit him again, but I tightened my grip on his arm. He looked at me and tried to pull away."Fenris, come on," I whispered. "We went here just to talk, not to be aggressive or something." He puffed a breath and pulled his arm away from my grip again. I let go, and he fixed his polo before stroking his hair stressfully."As I told you, he's not going to talk. He's a loyalist." Fenris gritted his teeth. "We've been torturing him, and we got nothing but a waste of time. I'm done with him. Now, if you wa

"You've been wanting to dance. Fine, love." I trailed my fingers over his clear cheek. "I would love to."He laughed. "Oh, come on! We both know you love dancing with me. I'm just doing you a favour.""Oh, shut up!" I scoffed while we were approaching the dance floor with our intertwined hands. We bumped into some partners, dancing until we finally found a space where we could freely move around.He rested the palms of his hand on my lower back. He tightened my grip on me, making my torso flush against his. Our smiles could reach the cloud nine as our eyes continued glittering, shinier than the chandeliers above us."You still don't wanna attend this party?" He asked in a low voice.I chuckled while I gripped my hands on his nape. "Well, it isn't that bad at all.""Of course. I wouldn't bring you here if I knew it would just be a boring party. Life is tiring." He leaned over my head, feeling his lips on the tip of my ear. "But I don't want you getting constantly drained, so I want you

Slowly, the estranged man opened his eyes and quickly met mine. "You're gonna die… you're all going to die…." His huge black pupils trembled on my chest. I took a deep breath as my chest tightened.Fenris kicked the man before he stepped on his chest. "Don't listen to him." He tightened the grip of his feet on the man's chest, stiffening the Dark Summoners' human body."What do you want from us, huh?!"The man smiled strangely and slowly, he chuckled like a devil. "You're all gonna die…." He breathed out before coughing after Fenris squeezed his chest more with his feet."Fuck you! You're the one who's going to die today." Fenris grabbed his dagger and sliced the Dark Summoner's head off. I flinched and stepped back as the blood splashed everywhere. I covered my mouth. I was used to seeing brutality, but I couldn't still stop to be shocked at times."Why did you kill him? We could get information—""Do you think he will say something?" Fenris cut me off. "Think of him as Claude. He wi

We arrived in the woods right on time while the Sun was about to rise. Good thing, the soldiers arrived earlier than us. They seemed responsible and dedicated to their tasks. We stayed near the river for a couple of hours. Fenris had been discussing something with the soldiers. They were plotting a plan while I was on the lookout for the busy group. Surprisingly, no Dark Summoners attempted to attack us. I was quite anticipating the action now, but perhaps it really was better for them not to attack or anything. The damage they could cause was too much, for sure.Since we saw no sign of attack, Fenris and I decided to go back to the mansion. He instructed the leader to inform us once anything unfortunate occurred. While we walked our way back to our house, the soldiers stayed in the woods as it was one of their duty — to guard and observe the forest.The next day was a really bad day for me. I work up without Fenris on my side. Since my body was so heavy and even my eyes, I didn't no
