Chapter 381 - If this reassures him then.. (1/2)

Those people following her are Yang's guardian and another man...

Well, at least it isn't anybody dangerous. She thought back to the conversation she had with Chauncey. Indeed she ought to be more careful around the Guardians. But until they do something to physically harm her, she won't condemn them.

Chauncey looked very embarrassed and Setsura sighed. ”Since you are here, help me carry the bags.” She pointed to the bags in her hands.

He immediately took them off her and continued to look away.

”Were you worried or something? I told you I would be fine. Nobody knows it is me and people still think I am in the hospital.”

When she saw Oslo the other day, she decided to ask him to help her out on this. In the end, he created an illusion of some kind with his magic and tampered with the memories of those nurses. Setsura felt that the last part was not necessary. But Oslo pointed out that the illusion would fail since those nurses saw she woke up, and they saw her leave the hospital too.

Chauncey nodded. ”I understand, but I do wish you would tell someone before you go anywhere.”

”I did tell Yang.” She trailed off when she recalled their last conversation. They had another fight before she left this morning.

What was wrong with her inquiring about his whereabouts? He disappeared all night and only just returned in the morning. Is it so bad for her to ask him what he was doing during that time? Then again she supposes after their last conversation, Yang felt hurt about her doubting him.

”Yang was not there.”

Her eyes twitched when she heard those words. An annoyed expression appeared on his face. Wait what? Yang was not there? Where did he go? He already disappeared all night.

”He must be at work. I heard that his manager signed him up for a new program.”

”Ah.” Thats right, work. Yang is still a star. Then maybe last night he was also working? She suddenly feels bad for lashing out at him.

But recently his behaviour is appalling. She sighed again, since when did they become this way? When they first went out, wasnt she happy with him? Or maybe she was only trying to convince herself.

If I was happy, then no matter what he does...

”Are you starting to feel guilty? Well, you can make it up for me starting now.” A voice whispered down her ear.

Setsura almost lost her balance but both the culprit and Chauncey grabbed her.

The culprit was none other than Yang. He looked at Chauncey and frowned. ”Why are you here with her?”

”It was a coincidence,” Setsura emphasized the word as she wrapped her arms around his neck. ”So, where were you?”

Yang wrapped his arms around her waist. ”Shopping. I wanted to get you something.”

”You know I have no need for any new material possessions since we have to return soon and all. But I do appreciate the thought.”

Yang kissed her lips. ”Apprecitate it after you see it.” He turned to Chauncey. ”Wait here if you want, I only need to borrow her for a moment.”

....

The moment they arrived at the alleyway. Setsura wanted to yell at him but he pinned het against the wall quickly and attacked her neck with bites. As Yang sucked on her flesh, she flinched. For a moment she thought he calmed down from what happened this morning. But it seemed like it was only an act for him.
