Love Agreement With The King

Chapter 257 - Trustworthy

"I'm glad you did the right thing by siding with us, Ethan." One snake said while he wrapping around Ethan's shoulders as his long tail traveled toward all Ethan's body.

"We're the perfect squad now. We will destroy them."

Another snake shook his head hearing Sharon's statement, "that's not what we were called for. Sharon, remember to keep work and personal issues separated."

Sharon rolled her eyes and clicked her feet onto the ground nervously.

Ethan was being quiet as he blanks stared at Sharon being unable to cast a reflection since she was gone but the snakes as oddly as it sounded they still cast an almost invisible shadow just like him.

"We successfully affected 562 animals now." A new snake walked into Ethan's flat where they were staying and announced his new joyfully. When the snake's gaze met Ethan's gaze he halted and glowered at him.

"What is he doing here? He is a traitor."

"He is not. We can trust him." Sharon intervened.

"How can you be so sure?" The same snake asked as he crawled closer to Ethan looking at him attentively.

"Because the protector said so. Do I have to remember you that she can read body language and people's minds?" Sharon replied annoyed by the snake that kept doubting her words.

"Has he done some test? To prove his loyalty?"

Sharon stood up losing her patience, "why don't you ask that to the protector? Or are you too afraid to do so?" Sharon laid her hands over her hips and looked at the snake challenging.

The snake shook his head and turned around to disappear in few seconds.

Sharon walked closer to Ethan and sat on his nap making his knit his eyebrows confused. She wrapped a hand around his neck and looked down on him with a hinted smirk.

"You're welcome." She whispered closer to his ear. "For having taken your side."

Ethan didn't move an inch even when her hand when to cover Ethan's hand, he kept glowering at her as if he didn't trust her at all.

"I've never asked you to take my side. I can defend myself alone." He replied making Sharon giggle.

"You're not even similar to John in his appearance, you also have his attitude," Sharon said as she caressed Ethan's cheek but he flinched away from her touch.

"I thought John was my soulmate maybe I was wrong," she whispered leaning even closer to him.

Ethan stood up abruptly making Sharon fall down the ground as she was sitting on his lap.

She let out a scream of complaint swearing under her breath. "Is it the thank you for having taken your side?" That was all that Ethan managed to understand from Sharon's whispering, not that he cared to.

He only needed answers about his past and about what he had to do with them.

Suddenly Silence fell, Sharon widened her eyes and ran to seat back in her seat as all the snakes bowed their head.

"Our protector is coming." One snake whispered to Ethan who managed to get back on his seat as well. He held his breath in anticipation and curiosity.

Roselyn and John were back to Kratez, as they returned they found Kathy there for the first day.

So Roselyn spent some hours with her to keep her posted about what had happened during all the months they hadn't talk.

"I can't believe you've such strong powers!" Kathy exclaimed as she stared at Rose in awe.

The lady smiled, "yes. It feels amazing to be linked with nature, it's like I have a purpose and whenever I grow a plant I can feel life running through my veins."

"Can I see your powers?" Kathy asked in excitement and Roselyn nodded. Roselyn pointed at a plant on a shelf, she then stretched her arm toward it and opened her fists slowly.

The plant began to grow and a few blossoms bloomed surrounded by leaves and filled with colorful petals.

Kathy was astonished, she couldn't believe her dearest friend developed powers.

"Wow!" She breathed out staring at Roselyn in disbelief.

Roselyn smiled she walked toward the plant and headed it to Kathy.

"Maybe you can have it as a gift." Roselyn took a deep breath, "I missed you a lot."

Kathy returned the smile and looked at the plant joyfully, she took it and then looked back at Rose.

"I missed you too."

Roselyn embraced her dear friend with all her affection and they stayed embraced for few minutes enjoying the warmth of each other's bodies. Roselyn even missed Kathy's scent of soap due to her cleaning and how tight she hugged her proving to her how much she cared and how much she loved her.

John bought a flat for Kathy nearly them and rented a fierce to protect her house from sudden supernatural's creatures attacks. Humans attracted supernatural creatures for their unmistakable blood scent.

In order not for supernatural creatures to smell her scent, John made sure to create a mix of herbals and magical spieces of a very strong scent and then had Kathy have a bath in it.

When she walked out of the bath John nodded, "it worked, I can smell it anymore."

Kathy grimaced with disgust, "but I can smell myself and that's disgusting." She complained pinching her nose not to smell the rotten scent she was immersed in and Roselyn despite her best efforts not to let Kathy deduce she could hear her scent too, narrowed her eyes unconsciously.

"If you want to stay here with us and not risk your life that's what you have to do. You will get used to that scent soon." John said and Kathy gave up. She took a deep breath and proceeded on brushing her hair, she would do anything to stay closer to Roselyn especially after they had stayed all those months without seeing each other's and some disgusting smell won't stop her intentions.

Kathy gazed at Roselyn who offered her a smile like if she knew the main reason why Kathy was doing all that was for their friendship. Kathy returned the smile and then traveled her gaze to John. "Fine.. I will do it then."
