Chapter 106: Meeting Of The Permanent Women (Part-1) (1/2)
“Zakira? Hey, I know that you can hear me,” I say, raising my eyebrows.
“Hmph!”
Giving me a quick side glance, Zakira instantly looks away with a pout, ignoring me.
Sigh…
The school is over and currently, Zakira and I are walking to my house together. A few meters behind, her bodyguards are closely following us in a black car. Thanks to her father knowing about me, Zakira can at least meet or talk to me outside the school freely (not because he allows her, but because he couldn’t stop her).
In fact, I even asked Zakira if we could just travel in her car— but she politely ignored me, preferring to walk while throwing constant glares and “Hmphs” at me after every minute or so.
And what did I do to deserve this?
Just like with everyone else, I told her that my system is the special one and thus, I have multiple female partners. A few days ago, one of these female partners decided to hold a meeting today— asking me to invite her to my house.
Since then, Zakira’s been in a really angry mood like this— furiously muttering something incoherent, though I could still catch some words like Vampires, Blood Bond, and something that sounds like “monopoly”.
Why would she talk about a board game now?
Sigh… Anyway, at least her anger didn’t stop her from following me after school, that’s a plus. Though maybe, it’s only because she’s my slave and cannot refuse me.
{Don’t worry, master. I don’t think that Miss Zakira will stay angry with you for long.}
I certainly hope so…
Oh, and welcome back. Why didn’t you speak to me yesterday in the brothel?
{I just didn’t want to disturb you during such an important task, master. Though I wish to congratulate you for its success.}
Thanks! And you helped me a lot so congratulations to you too. We gave that bastard Alex what he deserves!
{Yes, master. And as always, I am glad to be of use to you.}
“Hmph!”
Suddenly, with yet another “Hmph”, Zakira stops moving.
“What, you decided not coming with me anymore?” I ask with a frown.
“Hmph!”
She jerks her head, looking at my direction but her eyes are set above my face.
“Where are you…”
I turn around, only to find that we’ve already reached my house.
Shit, I didn’t even notice…
But still, how does Zakira know that this is my house?
Hmm… I don’t think she will answer me now, but I should ask her about this later (I can force her to answer but meh…).
“This is my house, let’s go!”
I don’t know how, but I could tell that Zakira is feeling quite nervous and reluctant all of a sudden, though she doesn’t voice it.
BRRRR
As expected, as Maya is most probably still hanging out with her friends, Layla is the one to open the door.
“Jacob, you’re home! Rebecca came half an hour ago, she seems nice—”
Layla stops speaking the moments she sees Zakira standing behind me.
“Oh, so she came with you…” she says coldly.
“Eh… Yeah,” I tell her with a nervous smile.
This is the part I was worried about— Layla doesn’t like Zakira at all. She made this fact very clear to me when I told her about the meeting today.
First of all, Layla was exceptionally shocked when I told her that Zakira is my permanent woman— something I have been holding off from her until now.
And I do have a proper reason for that. Layla knows everything about how Zakira kidnapped me and almost killed me in her literal bloodlust— I just didn’t want her to worry about me.
But now, I had no choice but to tell her about this. And thus, while Layla did agree to meet Zakira due to my insistence, she’s not happy about it exactly.
“Hmph!”
Zakira also scowls at Layla, though her nervousness is still there.
“Okay, okay, let’s get inside everyone,” I say hastily, entering the house.
Both Zakira and Layla stay behind me, sparks flying between them.
“So, where is Rebecca?” I ask, trying to sound a bit cheerful.
“In the living room,” Layla answers, her tone softening towards me.
Phew, at least she’s not angry with me…
Entering the living room, I find Rebecca sitting on the couch, nibbling on Layla’s homemade Choco-chip cookie. On the table in front of her, there are some other snack places as well along with soft drinks.
