201 -Blindly Following him.
Maura's POV:
I couldn't believe I would see Zane so early in the morning. I was very aware of the stress he had been
dealing with after his brother's death. It wouldn't be the first time that we were meeting. Our secret
meetings had been the best highlight of my day.
So far, we’ve only spent time together as friends. However, there were a lot of moments where I
thought he was going to kiss me, but then he forced himself into behaving. I wished to speak to
someone about him.
My first choice would be Beatrice, but since she was once their stepsister, I felt uneasy talking to her
about him. Once I had walked into his view, I realized he was too busy with his brother to even spare
me a glance.
They seemed to be arguing. I wondered if it was the right time for me to interrupt.
"Then there are other ways to help. Don't act like you are doing a favor for her,' I heard Zane muttering
to his brother when I reached their table.
■'What would you like to get today?" I stole their attention with a mild smile covering my lips. I wanted
to sit here and admire how handsome Zane looked in that gray t-shirt, but that thought took only a few
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtseconds to scatter because his brother was not in the mood for a cheery server.
"Don't you see we were talking?" Maddox raised his voice and slammed his fist on the table. My smile
faded instantly.
"I am so sorry, —I tried to apologize, but then he slammed his fist again and dropped the glass of water
everywhere.
"Ugh!' he complained. "What is wrong with these servers here? do they not know how to do their jobs?'
He raised his voice, and that's when my heart missed a beat. I wouldn' t want my father to walk in when
a customer is losing his mind and accusing me of disturbing him.
’Maddox! Calm down. It is only a little water. You will not drown in it." Zane came to my defense, but his
tone was still mild.
"Thank you! If we need anything, we will call for you, okay?" Maddox ignored Zane and turned to me,
making direct eye contact with me and angrily delivering his words to me.
I faintly nodded to him and turned around to rush back into the kitchen.
"What the heck was that?’ I heard Zane scold him, but by the time I could hear their conversation any
further, I had already left for the kitchen. Beatrice was in the restroom, so I rushed out of the backdoor
to cry alone in the alley.
It wasn't easy to be a server and not find rude customers, but it happened in front of Zane. I was in
such a good mood and expecting so much, but now it was all ruined. Zane coming early morning gave
me hope. I knew he had come to see me since I have been a little out of energy after finding my mother
in chains and not being able to help her.
That was another burden I was dealing with. I would go back home, knowing damn well that my mother
is chained in the basement, and I would wait for my father to leave so that I could spend some time
with her. She had asked me to get her a pendant, and so far, I didn't even have a plan. I wished to
speak to Zane and ask him for help, but I was scared.
After how they wanted to execute Colt, a weredragon, I wasn't sure if it would be a safe idea to expose
my mother's identity to any of the alpha king brothers.
"I didn't know he would make you cry so much." I heard a deep and sexy voice from behind me, and it
startled me. I didn't even have to turn around and look at the person to recolonize him.
I could recognize Zane by the way he breathes.
"It is alright. I believe he is in a bad mood," I excused on Maddox's behalf.
"Look at me." Zane gently held my chin and turned me around to face him. His beautiful eyes were
sparking under the sun. I feared losing my breath.
"I want you to come with me, would you?’ he asked, making me wonder where he was planning to take
me.
"Where are we going?" I asked in bewilderment.
"That would be a secret for now. Just tell me if you trust me and will follow me to wherever I lead you,"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhe asked, holding his hand out for me.
I stared at his hand for a moment before I gently gave him my hand.
"I trust you with all my heart, Zane!" I whispered, shyly looking down from his face as his intense gaze
gave me chills.
"Well then, your day is mine,” he whispered before he tightened his grasp around my hand and started
walking me to his car. I had no inkling where he was taking me, but I began to follow him blindly.
I knew for a fact Zane would never take me anywhere I am not safe. He sat me down in his car and
then helped me with the seatbelt. I have never been in his car before, so I was a bit shy around him.
His scent filled the whole car to the point that I felt like I was breathing him.
He started taking me in a weird direction, far away from the population, I believe. I wanted to ask him
what his plans were, but I didn't want to make him think I didn't trust him.
He parked the car in front of an abandoned hotel and looked out to say.
"We were taking classes here for a while, but it is back to being abandoned now," he said, making me
wonder if nobody was living here. Why were we here?
He then got out of the car, ran over to the passenger seat, and held the door open for me. I had a few
seconds to decide if I wanted to blindly follow him or maybe ask him at least a few questions.
I did what my heart told me to do.
I blindly followed him.
