Chapter 153 - chapter 153. Eventful shopping for meat (1)

"I'm coming with you." Orion says.

"Why? Don't you have to go?" I ask him. "It's getting late."

Orion shrugs. "I can call Nicholas' butler to have the car pick me up."

"Okay. What are you doing?" I turn to the other three.

"I have to go to the police station." Daniel answers looking at his watch.

"Mother wants us home." Quantum replies looking at his phone which his mother texted.

"I also want to come." Ren says.

"Go get your crutches then." I tell him and put my shoes on. I grab Asra's leash and put on a hat.

I grab out my phone and call a driver which Kiyoshi set up for Ren though we don't usually use it. A few moments later we go downstairs and get into the car.

"Bye." We wave to Quantum, Quasar and Daniel who are getting picked up.

"Do you just need meat?" Orion asks.

I nod and look at Ren. Ren also nods.

"I could just give you some." Orion offers. "Nicholas has a walk in freezer full of fresh meat."

"No thanks Orion. You love your meat so that will be gone in a few weeks and it'll take a month for a new supply to come for you." I refuse his offer.

"But-" Orion starts.

"No buts." I cut his sentence off. "You keep it. We get ours in a while."

Orion pouts and crosses his arms. He turns away to look out the window in a bad mood.

I roll my eyes seeing him throw a tantrum but don't say anything to calm him down or cheer him up. Orion loves his meat because he is a dragon vampire hybrid and because meat is delicious anyone can tell you that (unless they're vegans or vegetarians).

After an hour we finally get to the huge supermarket which I prefer since it has more variety of meat.

Ren opens the door and I get out his side since I am in the middle. Orion slams his door shut still in a bad mood.

"It wastes time and money." He grumbles while walking into the supermarket with his hands crossed over his chest.

"Well I've got plenty of both." I smile up at him.

He looks down and pouts when seeing my sly smile.

My smile widens so that my white teeth are shown. I look away and skip into the supermarket not noticing Ren's weird gaze at the two of us.

Ren looks at Orion longer before looking away once stepping into the cool supermarket.

"Ah. That's a huge different from the summer sun." Ren sighs.

"Mhm." I hum in agreement while picking up a basket.

Orion looks around with wary eyes. He doesn't like shopping since there has been a few times where assassins are waiting in ambush.

I notice his movements and inch closer to him before whispering, "Relax. No one is going to assassinate or kidnap us. They had too little time for an ambush."

Orion nods and walks past.

I scrunch up my lips seeing that my words only did a little to calm him. I sigh before walking to the freezers. When choosing out which kind of meat I want I feel a nudge to my ribcage. I rub it while looking at the one who elbowed me.

Orion tilts his head in a direction. I look in the direction to see a TV with news about the Kitamura Group heir. My face hardens.

"Get Ren hidden." I command Orion. "I don't want any trouble."

Orion nods but just as he's about to go find Ren, he stops. "Why do you think someone leaked this information?"

"You can't start a fire without flame and you can't start a flame without a spark." I murmur while picking up juicy pork ribs. I put it into the basket.

"Eh? I don't get it." Orion blinks. Speaking in riddles again.

"The spark is his name. The flame has yet to appear though I don't know why they are starting a fire."

"So someone is out to get him?"

"Sorta."

"Deer!" Orion whines when I don't give him all the details.

"Oreo." I say back while smiling.

Orion pouts before smiling. He turns around and walks away to find Ren. When he finds him in the vegetable section his childish smiles fades.

"Eh? Orion?" The teenage boy asks when seeing Orion behind him.

"What are you doing here?" Orion asks the boy in a cold tone.

"I was shopping when I found Ren." Yuu replies with a cheerful smile.

"Since when did you like shopping?" Orion hisses.

Instead of replying Yuu Yachi smiles wider.

"Orion don't be like that to Yuu-Sama." Ren says defending Yuu.

Orion looks over the two and without saying anything he takes off his thin jacket and puts it over Ren's head. He grabs Ren's arm and pulls him towards himself. Orion then looks at Yuu with a cold face.

"We'll be leaving now, Yuu-Sama." He pulls Ren away.

Yuu's smile disappears and replaces with a frown when hearing the sarcasm of Orion's words. "Disrespectful!" He spits before turning around and storming away. He texts someone once in his car.

. . . . . . .

"What took so long?" I ask the two while picking up some steak.

"We met with Yuu." Ren replies with a smile before catching Orion's fierce glare.

"Where's Yuu-Sama now?" Orion sneers.

"Orion." I say to warn him. I slightly shake my head once he looks at me.

Orion innocently shrugs his shoulders before picking up a lamb roast. "I want this."

I shake my head when seeing his behavior. I go back to picking some more meat but after a few moments I feel Orion's mood change. I turn around to see him looking at a girl no older than 19. She's cute and could put actresses to shame but Orion's mood takes me away from the cuteness.

"Is something wrong?" I voice out.

Orion turns to me and I see that wrinkles has formed in between his eyebrows from furrowing them. When Orion opens his mouth to answer the woman speaks.

"Hi. I'm Michiko Kuge. I work in Stone Corporation as a residential estate agent."
