Chapter 300 - A Protective Lycan - III
The flight was at 11 in the night. These guys did not have a concept of time but for the humans that were brought from the other world they had made a slight adjustment for their comfort.
To be honest, Adeline loved the fact that there was time here. It was almost unbelievable to live without a watch hung over in one wall of the room or having one on her wrist.
There worse still more than 2 hours to go for the flight which is why severe and adaline with sitting at the back of the house in the snow while looking up at the sky.
"Its Pretty." Adeline commented in a small voice as she stared at one star in particular that seemed to shine brighter than everyone else. Could that even be possible?
His answer was on a kiss on her forehead.
After sometime Xavier exhaled loudly. "We have to leave soon Adaline."
"Time is it?"
"It still fifteen minutes to be ten but you and I will be living by car and its snow." He kissed her head again. "I don't want to take any more chances. We should leave now."
She nodded but made no moved to get up and get out of the house. "Is it just me or unwillingly memories have been made in this house?"
He chuckled. "I would not say this house in particular. Our memories are all over the place."
"They are." She agreed. "Though, I never understood what kind of game you wanted to play with me in the jungle."
"What?"
The sharp voice made Adaline come out of her reverie of staring at the sky and she turned slightly to look at him.
Xavier's eyes had visibility darkened and the golden path of them shined. His beast, the more primal side was surfacing.
Why was he getting angry? I did not understand that. How was he having the right to get angry when it was her who he wanted to run throughout the jungle?
"What do you mean by me playing a game with you in the jungle?" His raspy voice told her that he was struggling to keep his beast in control. "Adeline, I would never put you in a situation where you would have to go in the jungle."
"Wait, what?" She frowned and shifted completely to look at him.
This was completely in contrast to what they had talk about that day. This was in totally different direction that she did not recognise.
Was he playing a prank on her?
He nodded. "The forest is not just home to us but other creatures would love to feed on humans or any kind of meat. There is no reason for you to be sent in the Jungle by me or anybody else without proper shifting Guards with you."
Wait, what?
This Xavier seemed to be talking in so much sense than the previous one that he did not almost recognise him. Were they even the same person?
"No," she shook her head, "I very much remember that it was you who knocked on my door and asked me to get ready while you waited for me outside the house. And then you were pretty much impatient and frustrated because I was refusing to run through the Jungle for you to catch me."
Her side of the story made sense because Adeline had witnessed it. She had to tell him the truth about what happened, in case as he seemed to have, forgotten.
Confliction was reaching its highest peak in her mind as she continued, "You were constantly pressurizing me to run into the forest and how you would follow me after few seconds and then I remembered that kind of demonic think behind me—"
"Demonic?!" He barked at the word before giving the Jungle good look behind her.
Xavier did not say another word as he picked her up and held her walk inside the house. "I do not know what the fuck you are talking about but I would very much like to listen to it along with fucking my counsel."
Xavier was cursing and Adaline understood the extent of which the matter good go to. This was serious because he was not controlling his language around her.
Adeline stood at the front porch of the house as Xavier checked the house once more and made sure that each and every bag brought by them was kept inside the trunk of the car before ushering her in.
Once the wheels of the car had started rolling on the road and The silence had become too much for Adeline to bear, she looked at Xavier nervously before opening her mouth to speak. "Are we gonna—"
"No," he cut her off sharply, "Not here."
She gulped and nodded before turning to face outside the window. Honestly, this was much better than having Xavier ignore her. At least she knew that he was not happy at the moment.
They reached the airport in silence and just as they got out, Adeline noticed the presence of others standing below the plane. She could not make out all of them but knew that Dylan and Augustus were standing there.
Had Xavier told them to come already?
Dylan and Augustus bowed at the site of the alpha and Luna coming and by the way it was done Adaline could tell that they were back to business.
There faces no longer had smiles on them rather seemed to be set in stone.
"Wait in the plane for me adaline." He glanced at her and just when Adaline was expecting a kiss on her forehead, he lightly nudged her forward to the direction of the plane.
Perhaps was all she was getting from a serious and business minded saviour. Without another word of protest and Adeline moved upstairs and enter the plane to find Patricia and Elizabeth already there.
"Hi," Elizabeth waves at her with the sleepy smile on her face. "I'm so tired from hvaing sex."
At least, she was getting it.
