-I need to talk to you. Now!
Was I really saying that, Klaus?
You can call those outbursts of courage. Of course, I did not intend to explain why had been left dead for all those years. But also putting up with Zorack's indifference was killing him. I almost believed it was all forgotten after he told me to go back to the Spartackus dorms.
Joke. Zorack seemed to be everywhere after the base was ours again. Tireless. And I'm not even going to talk about his terrible mood. Well, after the doctor's scolding, people at least just looked at me with a frown.
"What if it had been your boyfriend that a girl was in the mood for? Wasn't it really going to create confusion? Not even fight?"
It was a girl.
And it wasn't quite what I used to enjoy. Curse. Zorack made no distinction in these matters of sex. In Édrin there was only a charge in relation to genders to guarantee sexual descendants.
What the fuck!
I hate the way she looks at him with that face pretending to be a sufferer. Did I say hate that skinny girl, the story of an orphan? It's all right. That she didn't know. Only I was back and Angel invaded my territory. I might as well have managed with great difficulty to make Zorack forget that everyone thought I was dead. In fact, I had relied on this detail to ease his anger.
-What you want?
I looked at Zorack, swallowing.
What did I want?
"Damn it! Can you understand the small detail that I can't really tell the reason for letting everyone believe he was dead?"
-How long do you intend to be mad at me like that? - I burst out frustrated as put my hands in my pants pockets.
Even in anger, he is charming in a bossy way. There was no way to pretend that nothing happened between us. It was a long time. I regretted it. Try not to watch the cut hair falling on your forehead with water in your mouth. He was even hotter when he tied them back.
-Klaus ...
-Really. It's not my fault. But it seems that everyone decided otherwise, you know? I didn't send the damn girl to freak out and decide to play Wonder Woman by attacking those things.
-I do not...
Damn it!
I can't believe I took the girl's plague to bed on that ship, pretending it was Zorack when I approached her. He was going to kill me when he heard about it. And the sex hadn't even been good. Fault. I even tried. K'Aldriants had greedy plans for the girl. I knew exactly what she carried in her body. knew what had been implanted inside her.
-Not even the doctor is sure. Damn it, Zorack. She's not even human. I am here. Hereby your side. - I decided to appeal.
And it was the worst of my arguments. I saw it from the way he raised a skeptical eyebrow. It was his clear way of saying that things were not right between us. Not even after that encounter with fantastic sex.
I preferred anything more than my ex-lover's indifference. I also hate it every time Zorack looks betrayed. I was going to be screwed when they found out. Good thing the damn girl was silent. Of course, she had remembered.
Remembered everything?
Shit. How much does she know or remember?
-It's all right. - Zorack took a deep breath and crossed his arms in front of me. - The truth? What happened between you and Angel? And don't pretend that nothing happened! I know your way better than you think. As soon as we get here for the first time at the base. I saw your eyes. You knew Angel.
Hi, had he noticed that too?
Maybe I could die by denying it.
And it didn't even look so disheartening. I was going to deny everything calmly in the world and everything went wrong. The noise suddenly ... I wasn't as fast as Zorack. An eternal soldier. He already had the pistol in his hand and in a defensive position without knowing what was going on.
It gave the impression that there was a collapse. I swore under my breath knowing that the stones that prevented us from accessing the tunnels would not last long. Perhaps with luck, the girl would not be able to return to human form. Zorack caught my thought at that moment giving me back the kind of look that I could strike as moved forward indifferent to the frightened screams. People were still scared of anything too easy.
And I didn't even have to follow the base's named superhero. Couldn't I have chosen a normal guy to fall in love with? Did he really have to be a Confederate officer? It was hell as they always seemed ready for anything.
I saw it haunted, stepping back looking at what emerged from inside the tunnels after an opening gave us back access. It was a humanoid form and as in N'Tirlay, it had the skin of liquid and impenetrable metal covering the entire body.
It was not like the others we knew. It was not just another K'Aldriant. His eyes shone red and menacing.
It was a female! Holy shit!
-Angel ?! - I heard Zorack murmur, perplexed, and not knowing what to do.
I mumbled at the lack of luck. And the explanations ...
Screwed. I'm Screwed.
If the girl remembered anything that had happened on that ship when she was abducted, I could say goodbye to all my chances of getting Zorack back.
-How so if Angel remembers what the curse happened ..? - Zorack started to shout.
Did I really forget that my lover shared thoughts?
It was far worse than reading thoughts. I tried to block my mind and think of anything else cursing me. I wasn't fast enough.
"Have I heard that thoughts are personal?" I complained angrily.
He looked at me possessed.
-Because they are not for sure anymore.- he roared possessed.- Did you take Angel to bed? When did you intend to tell me the little detail?
