Chapter 11

Kiari

She ignored me again, she's bipolar. Heard a shout from her room and I immediately walked over there. I opened the door and they seem surprised. I know she was hiding something from me, I just can't predict what is it.

The night came, and my two loyal friends visit me again, in the four corners of my room. Darkness fills the place and they appear, they never leave me since I was 10 years old. Loneliness hugs me and depression kisses me. I had divorced from happiness since it always leaves me. So I learn to embraced darkness and love the peace it gives me.

I closed my eyes and pacify myself from the racing thought. But I can't sleep, I grabbed my phone my nightstand and checked some text.

Baron

____

Done. He's here.

They already caught Milbert. I get up and grabbed my jacket from the coat rack and turned the lights off and get out of my room. I passed on her room and the urge to checked her got me. I opened the door and walked over her room she's not here. I get down to the kitchen and look for her, I sighed, as I wake up all the maids in the house just to find her. They all go out of their room except for her maid, Cilia. I know they did something stupid this night.

I go out and talked the guard if where are they but he said he only saw Cilia and the asshole don't know where the hell Cilia was.

I get in my car and drive down the street. I saw two girls walking and chattering on the sidewalks in the middle of the night.

I stopped my car in front of them and get off. They startled when they see me, I throw them a death glare and Cilia start panicking, But Selina holds her hand.

"Get in," I said coldly and get in the car. They hesitantly walked and opened the door, and they get in.

Obviously, Cilia was looking at Selina frantically but Selina was slightly scared and didn't even look at me.

I silently drove our way home and they get off from my car. I tugged my lip pacify myself, maybe I will shout again. I drove the car and speeding through highways.

I just control my anger and I'll let this anger out on Milbert later.

I reached the house and saw my men standing outside and one roaming around. They do a single nodd when they saw me, I walked over inside the house. I saw Baron chattering to bogard he stood up when he saw me and heading the man sat on the chair unconscious.

I walked close to Milbert and looking on him with my death stare, clenching my fist and it landed on his face. What happened when I was 10 crossed my mind. Milbert handed timothy the gun that they use to shot my family. I snatched my gun and pointing on his head. But I remember he'll die without any suffering, I shot his both hand first and he yelled out in pain.

I heard his rigid breath and grimacing in pain.

"You're a jerk Kiari Zyne or should I call you Kiari Gray?"He furrowed contorting from pain.

I aiming the gun on his head and the gun resounding around.

His blood and gore filthy the house. I walked out of the house and Baron's followed me, I hate it! the feeling never goes away. The pain still fresh and it never lessens up.

I feel the tears scrolling down on my cheek, Angered filling me in. I wiped my tears rudely and I could Baron's hand tapping my shoulder.

"The end is near. Shibro and Timothy left, after that, you can move on and start over." Baron said and I laughed.

"Start over? to hell?" I looked at him blankly and he looked at me with a death glare.

"Nope. Start over change yourself and make yourself happy with Selina." She said seriously and furrowed at her. And shake my head.

He punched my shoulder mildly "Hey I'm serious Ugly." He said and I looked at him with a burning gaze.

"I need to go," I said coldly and turned my back at and walked to my car. I get in and looked at him he nodded and I start the engine and speed back home.

I walked inside the house I saw Cilia wiping the table. She looked at me and in an instant, she looked away obviously they done something stupid.

"Cilia, follow me," I said deeply cold. And I heard her walking behind me leisurely. I headed straight to my office opened the door and left it to hang for her to enter.

I sit and she stands looked down frantically.

"Tell me," I said darkly cold, crossing my arms and faintly smirked.

"Uhmm Master." She said shaking and sighed. "I think Selina should be the one to tell you." She said.

"I'm waiting, Cilia," I said coldly.

" Sh...she's planning to..m..move out." She said hesitantly trailed off.

"Why?" I questioned furrowed and coldly.

"She told me you have a girlfriend Alys. So, she thinks that she's an

obstruction to both of you." I nodded. I rubbed my neck and lean back on my seat, closing my eyes, and sighed.

"Where have you been last night?" I question emotionless.

"8th street, she's looking for a house to rent." She said and I signaled her to go out. She's too much to handle, too much than my mission.

I get out of my room and heading straight to her room. I opened the door without knocking. I walked over inside and closing the door. She was sleeping, I sat on the futon crossed my legs and waiting for her to wake up. I didn't mean to invade her privacy but I want to know what she's hiding. I stood up and grabbed her phone from the nightstand and opened it.

I opened the inbox and only health care number text her. I opened the gallery and her pictures appeared on the screen.

I keep scrolling and I saw my picture. I smirked and exited the gallery, I went to google and she's looking for a house or for room to rent. And a part-time job.

I turned off her phone and placed it back on the table.

Baron's calling...

I go out of her room and answered his call.

("Jack is Alive.")I shocked by what I just heard.

"How is it possible?" I asked deeply cold.

("We're still investigating about it." )He said and he sighed.

"Make sure you'll find him," I said and I ended the call.

I get back in her room again and saw her fix her clothes.

"Packing?" I asked coldly. She was stunned and I sat on the futon and crossed my legs nonchalantly.

"Why are you here?" She asked low and looked down.

"Stop that," I said grueling and looked at her with my burning gazed.

She stood up and walked over me and sit on the futon in front of me.

"Kiari..." She sighed.

"No," I said darkly cold and emotionless, she looked at me furrowed.

"I'm planning to move out." She said frantically.

"No," I said deeply cold, she's being hard-headed and it annoyed me.

"I'm sorry but I made my decision." Said and stood up.

"Try to leave," I said coldly threatening. She looked at me puzzled.

"What will you do?" She asked scared and furrowed, I can hear her rapid breath.

"And you'll see me panicking just to bring you back here," I said cold emotionless.

"I can't stay here anymore." She said didn't even look at me.

"Why?" I asked nonchalantly and rubbed the back of my neck.

"Because you had a girlfriend." She said looked down shamed slightly. I was amused by her reaction, She's blushing.

"And?" I asked nonchalantly and crossed my arms. She shook her head and clenched her fist.

"Tss." I sighed "Stop your reverie." I said casually. And she looked at me with a big questioned mark on her face. "Alys and I are friends," I said and she looked away, blushing.

She nodded and stood up.

"Uhm Tiffany invite me to a party. Is it okay if I'd come?" She asked furrowed. I nodded, and she smiles brightly.  And she walked to her closet grabbed a dress on a shopping bag, that is different from all the shopping bags I bought. She enters the bad bathroom. And she gets out wearing a short revealing dress.

She looked at me and smile and I looked at her with a death glare, and she didn't mind. She continued doodling some stuff on the table in front of the mirror.

And she closes her bag, turned around, and looked at me.

"bye." She said smiling and I smirked rolling my eyes.

"No," I said casually and she stopped, looking at me puzzled.

"You agreed." She said furrowed.

"Change your clothe," I said deeply cold. And maintain my burning gazed. She looked at her dress.

"Why? Tiffany gave this to me." She said.

"I don't care," I said nonchalantly and stood up putting a hand on my pockets. " If you don't want to change it's okay, don't go party," I said emotionless and get out.

I walked down heading to the kitchen. Cilia came sprinting and I looked at her.

"Uhm Master someone's looking for Ms. Selina." She said hesitantly scared.

"Who?" I question casually furrowed.

"Charles." She said and looked down.

I walked through the gate and face him. He stunned when he saw me looking him with a death glare.

"Hey, Kiari." He said Charles is our classmate.

"Yes?" I said darkly deep.

"I'm here to fetch Selina." He said looking at me uncomfortably.

"Go. She's not coming."I said darkly cold. And he frowned.

"She texts me 4 minutes ago." He said looking on her phone.  And looked back at me. I looked at him with a deadly glare ready to bury him alive.

"Oh yeah okay. I'll go ahead then." He said and quickly get in his cheap car and speed his way to the hell.

I go back inside and I saw Selina walking down the stairs.

"Who's that?" She asked and I shrugged. She changed her dress.

Much better.

"Charles." Cilia said and she sprinted out.

"Where is he?" She asked looking at Cilia and Cilia looked at me. So, she turned to see me. I rolled my eyes and crossed my hand. She raised her brows signaled to answer her question.

I stared at her emotionless, I stood up and grabbed her hand dragged her to my car.

"Get in, "I said and she nodded.

I drive gradually down the highways.

"Where?" I asked her, casually blank. Maintaining my gaze straight forward.

"To The American Bar at the savoy hotel Mayfair," She said reading the address on her phone then glanced at me.

"Don't drink," I said to her and she furrowed nodded.

We reached the bar a span of minutes. We get off in the car and she sprinted inside. Obviously excited.

I followed her inside and I saw the devil linking his arm around her.

Judging the silence around, obviously, they saw me. The devil turned around and quickly removed his hand from Selina.

They continued the party loud music and liquor everywhere.

I don't know if Selina used to this kind of party, Hope she enjoyed.

I sat silently on the corner and let Selina enjoyed the party, I had a mission they night we need to catch the asshole, Jack and Blaze.

I want to end this mission without putting Selina in trouble.

They sit on the couch and Selina stood up roaming his gaze. When our eyes fixated she beckoned at me, I just stared at her blankly and she excused herself and walked towards me.

"Hey, Are you alright? join us there." She said and held my hand at looked at her emotionless.

And she starts on tugging me, she's rude. I stood up and let her dragged me on their table. All eyes landed on me and I stared at them blankly. 

I sat beside Selina playing on her sling bag. And opened her phone play on her phone, they chattering on some stupid stuffed.

I keep playing on her phone when someone texts her, not invaders but it seems like that, just understand okay? I opened the message box and unknown demons texted her.

I showed him the text and he literally shocked, jaw dropped.

"Not her. She's mine." I said to him and he instantly nodded. Before I walked back inside I looked at him with death glared.

I sighed. I went back inside and sit beside her, She hands me a drink but I refused to accept it.

She was about to drink it but I grabbed off from her hand and swallow the drink in an instance. She looked at me with burning gaze and I smirked

"Don't drink," I said nonchalantly. Playing on her phone. I deleted his text.

"This is a party what do you expect me to do?" She asked furrowed in confusion. I rolled my eyes and faintly smirked and she rolled her eyes as well.

"Just don't drink," I said deeply cold. Emotionless.

She taunting and instantly grabbed the glass of liquor and swallowed it. I looked at her with burning gazed and I smirked. She looked at me and she pinched my cheeks both sides. I was annoyed by idiocy.
