My light.My darkness (MxM) (V SLOW UPDATE)

Chapter 21

"are you ready?"

I look away from the mirror to the bathroom door to see Zeus leaning against the door frame hands in his dress pant's pockets, the nicely fitted navy blue suit complemented his body in all the right places, I cleared my throat, I must have been deep in thoughts since I did not sense him stepping into the room at all and my hair is just not listening to me this morning, well it never does but this looks ridiculous,

ugh

I roughly tousled my hair in frustration before pulling it up in a messy bun, I give up

"sorry, yes I'm ready now, let's go"

after dinner last night Zeus also annouced he was getting back to work today and I agreed to let him drive me, since we're going to the same place then why would I walk there if he could just drive me, I'm not that petty, 

Lilly and her mate left shortly after and maybe because we did not want to make it awkward we just called it a night and headed to our rooms separately

we both decided to skip breakfast when we woke up , apparantly neither of us is a fan of food first thing in the morning

I took one last glance at the mirror to check if everything is in place, I had on a pair of black ripped skinny jeans with a loose mid thigh white cutton shirt and my black timberlands, I quickly grapped my leather jacket and backpack before heading toward Zeus who stood patiently waiting for me downstairs, briefcase in one hand and his long black coat in the other

hmm this is a bit too domestic for me

"let's head out"

the elevator ride was a quiet affair, neither of us said anything until we got to the car and he opened the door for me like the good mate he is

a scoff escaped me and he looked at me confusingly

"what's funny?"

"oh! nothing.. I just remembered an old joke" I'm obviously lying and I'm sure he can tell that already but decided not to press the matter and just shook his head and walked to he driver's seat to get in I was buckling myself in when I felt eyes looking in my direction then saw a dark shadow pass by from the corner of my eye, shivers ran down my spine, I froze in place and whipped my head to look but there was nothing, no moving bushes or anything indicating a slight movement, it was like any other gloomy early winter morning

that's odd

"what's wrong?" Zeus asked trying to look passed me and through the window to see if there's anything suspicious

"hm? I thought I saw something" his eyes narrowed at the statement and he took a deep breath staring intensely at the woods surrounding us

"there's no scents near by except ours, are you sure?"

I was definitely not imagining things

"yes I'm sure"

"no one could go through the pack warriors and gards but I'll tell them to take a look just in case"

we drove off, holding my backpack between my arms I kept gazing throught the window into the semi dark forest surrounding us, it just gave me such an eerie feeling all of the sudden, I can feel Zeus's eyes drift my way every so often before glancing at the rear-view mirror

"there's really nothing in there Akio, just relax, my warriors just checked and I also would have felt it if there was a rogue hanging outside my building"

right, such a great alpha you are

a growl from Zeus made me snap my eyes his way, he had a tight hold on the wheel, his knuckles turning white with a slight tick to his sharp like knife jaw
