On a Journey To Find Love. [Zarry]

Chapter 40

After watching the sunrise together, Zayn took him back home. They arrived at his garden. Suddenly a sadness settled in his heart. He did not want to let go of the boy in his arms. The one who made him smile and comforted him today. The one who made him want to live. 

Harry was too good for him. He didn't deserve him. Yet he had awakened his demon. He was both happy and guilty about it. Happy because he was the one to awaken it, that his demon responded to his kiss with such intensity that made his heart burst with joy. Guilty because now Harry would be restless and dealing with intense urges and emotions. And when he couldn't satisfy Harry's urges, he shouldn't have awakened his demon. 

Harry looked up at him. Those emerald eyes, staring at Zayn pleadingly. He already knew what Harry was going to say. He would tell him to stay. Now, with his demon awake, he would be even more stubborn.

Zayn gazed down at him, waiting. Would Harry ask him to stay or would he refrain from it?

"Thank you for tonight." Harry smiled. 

Zayn wanted to lean down and kiss him, but he didn't want to stir his demon. Zayn's was already restless enough. It did not help that Harry took good care of him or that he smelled so good. 

A frown settled on the younger demon's face. "Will you go back to that dark house?" 

He didn't like the idea.

It brought a smile to Zayn's face. "I am not staying there anymore." 

Harry pulled back from his hold but still held his hand. "Where are you staying?" 

"I'll show you next time." He promised. 

Harry tightened his hold on his hand. "I don't want to let you go," Harry admitted. 

Zayn inhaled deeply to calm his demon down. Being ancient, he should be able to do it easily, but it was difficult to resist the younger demon, especially now when the urge to renew the mark was still there. 

"I don't want that either." 

Harry's face lit up. "Will I see you tomorrow then?" He shook his head and chuckled. "I mean today?" 

The longing in his eyes only added fire to Zayn's own. Who was Zayn to step away from him if he didn't choose him?

"Yes," Zayn replied. 

Suddenly Zayn sensed someone inside Harry's room. It was his annoying friend. What was he doing in Harry's room so early? 

Zayn couldn't deny that he was curious about this friend of Harry's. He had come to Harry's rescue twice, and Harry seemed to care for him a lot. 

When Zayn sensed that he was about to leave the room and come to the garden, Zayn drew Harry into his arms. He leaned closer as if to kiss Harry. Would his friend stop them? 

"Harry!" 

Harry gasped, startled as he turned around. "Zarin. What…"

Zayn knew it. 

"I should leave," Zayn spoke.
