Chapter 139 - Waiting (2/2)
Then she took Theon's head and buried it deep between her twin peaks.
The blazing flames of the two finally broke out, and under the bright artificial lighting outside the office, the two figures engaged in the most intense confrontation.
It was two hours before Pera finished dressing, and then helped Theon with his appearance.
Shane ran his hand over her delicate face. Only in her body could he feel the heat and brilliance of life.
”What are we going to do next, boss?”
Even though Theon had become the man in power, Pera still addressed him in the same tone. Shane didn't care. This was the privilege that Paula deserved.
”Nothing, my dear Pella.” ”All we have to do is wait.”
”Wait?”
”That's right. When Zero comes out of Death Ridge, that's when our next move begins. But before that, all we have to do is watch quietly. ”
Pella didn't understand much, but she never doubted Theon's judgment. All she had to do was complete all the tasks Shane had assigned her, and complete her duties as his woman.
Theon knew that success was for those who were prepared, and for those who were patient. As for him, he had never lacked patience, and he had even more so prepared himself.
Everything, was just waiting for the moment Ling Chen exited the Death God Ridge!
Theon was waiting, and so were Atasha and Monnie. The only difference was that they were waiting for Zero to wake up.
Zero had been unconscious ever since he ran out of the canyon last night, and by the morning, he was already suffering from a high fever. Atasha examined his body and found that all the wounds he had healed before zero had completely ruptured. In addition, he had been swept by the radiation fire last night before he left the valley, causing his muscles at the edge of the zero wound to become necrotic.
While she had cleaned some of his dead muscles, she had not stopped. In this situation, Athea learned from the prophet Gunter that this was a precursor to genetic collapse. Because the gene that was about to collapse could no longer repair his body, the deterioration of the zero injury could no longer be controlled. If this continued, then in less than 24 hours, Zero would die from the gene's complete collapse!
At this point, she only knew one way to save Zero's life.
It was a method passed down from generation to generation to the members of the Flash Clan — — eating humans!
