Uncontrollable Fond

23)One step and death!

Zuriel woke up and searched for her phone.

"Here..." Jacob handed her a phone.

"You was here all the time?"
Zuriel asked while checking the time on her phone.

"Yes..."
Jacob seemed to be unhappy.
Zuriel stayed calm after checking the time because she still had hours for her plans.

"Are you pregnant?"
Jacob asked.

"No..." Zuriel gave a WHAT THE FUCK look while he sighed in relief.

"Then why did you refuse anesthesia?" He seemed to be back to his normal condition.

"I have a flight tonight so I need to leave sooner for doing my business, that's why I refused anesthesia." she made her way to the window and watched the view of the city. He offered to help her but she politely denied it, she could a change in his attitude he wasn't flirting around, he was worried and taking care of her.

"Isn't your swift starting at 9 am?" She kept her phone on a table nearby.

"You do remember..." Jacob smiled before answering,
"A doctor who works in night swift wasn't able to make his schedule, so I'm here"

"Were you working along with his swift with your schedule?"
Her eyes met his.

"Yes, I was working since yesterday's morning"
He signed.

"Are you not sleepy?"

"I'm..."

"Then-" Zuriel was cut off by Jacob.

"How are you Zuriel?"
He asked in a soft tone making her frown.

Before she could answer she saw her phone buzzing on the table, it was Thora, she looked outside through the window.

"Yes Thora"

"Is your wound treated?"
Thora asked on the other side of the phone call.

"Yes-" Zuriel stopped her phrases when she felt a pair of arms snaking into her waist.

Not bothering to pay much attention to Jacob's act, she spoke "Yes, it's treated-" she was again cut off when he snuggled into her neck.

"When shall I come to pick you up? We have a venue tonight and a meeting with Hailey, we have things to sort out." Hearing Thora's words Jacob muttered under his breath.

"I want you to stay..."

Zuriel gulped before replying to her.

"Uh... Thora, I have a little work to do related to the Y7 mission, I will be there in 10minutes after completion of my works."
With that, she disconnected the call.

Zuriel turned around to face Jacob.

"What do you think you are doing?" Her eyes traveled at his handsome features, she licked her lips when her gaze fall on his rosy lips.

"Is it hurting?"Jacob saw her arm and he asked gently.

Zuriel shook her head before asking. "why does it matter to you?"

"Why do you care? Why are you worried about me?" She mumbled while looking deep into his worried gazes.

Without answering her, he gently pulled her in a hug, she was taken off-guard by his sudden action but she couldn't deny him.

"I will tell you when I find it"
He slowly kissed her shoulder, Zuriel gently pushed him.

"You don't want this?"
The worried Jacob was gone, now he is behaving romantically.
He looked sharply into her eyes.

"Shut up-" Jacob pecked her cheek.

"Jacob-" he pecked her cheek again.

"What are you doing?" She negligibly growled at him.

"You are not saying no..."
Jacob said.

'This man! He is getting on my nerves! and I want this' She cursed in her mind.

Zuriel pulled his shirt collar and kissed his lips while he smiled before kissing her back, he held her hips and deepened the kiss.
Zuriel doesn't know when she will return as she is leaving for some days, so she didn't want to refuse him. Jacob was near to pick her up but an innocent nurse opened the door, shouting his name.

"Dr. Stephen! An emergency case!" She gasped when she saw Jacob and Zuriel.
While their eyes looked in the direction.

Zuriel quickly pushed him away and scoffed while looking back to the window view.

"I will be in a minute, please go first," Jacob said.

He glanced at her Zuriel.
"Sorry love, I will come back"
He kissed her temple before leaving.

Zuriel sighed before checking her phone. 2 missed calls from Thora were enough for her to panic, it was almost half an hour.

'for half an hour, I was having this memont??'
She instantly fixed her make-up and hair. She was about to leave but a thought stopped her.

"Jacob? Oh shit!" He didn't return yet, she grabbed a piece of tissue and wrote a message for him.
'We will meet again :)'

She stormed out of the room before keeping the note on the bed.

"How are you my friend Thora?"
Hailey pulled Thora into a hug, with a fake smile while Thora did the same.

"I'm good Hailey"

"Pleasure to meet you... Where is Zuriel?" Her eyes looked at her office door before meeting Thora's cold one.

Thora's hands were in her suit pockets, two bodyguards were behind Thora.

"She is caught in something"
Thora replied nonchalantly.

"Cool..."
Hailey nodded.

Thora stared at Hailey's chair, it was a black leather chair with gold-coated at the ends. She also noticed a nameplate that was sealed on the top of the chair which golden threads.

Hailey noticed her gaze and smirked before making her way to sit on that chair.
"So why do you want to meet me?" She leaned back smiling while her feet were rested at the end of the table.

Thora sighed before speaking,
"Facing the boss of the rivals before starting a fight puts me at ease"

"Something, that is wrong must be deleted. Don't you think?"
She whispered mockingly.
Her eyes were throwing the intimidating look, with an evil smirk on her lips she raised her brows.

"What?" Hailey's smile dropped listening to her.

"Where are my fucking drugs, honey?" Thora looked at Hailey's eyes which pierced her soul.

Thora took a gun from her coat and pointed at her, but as soon as she does it she heard pair of guns unlocking behind her.
She saw her bodyguards aiming guns behind her from the corner of her eye.

"Oh, sweetie? Should I answer your fucking question?"
Hailey smirked in history while pouring whiskey into a glass.
She was acting recklessly in front of Thora while Thora didn't bother to give a fuck.

Thora chuckled at the betrayal of her bodyguards, Hailey couldn't understand what was going in Thora's mind. Guns were pointed at her and she was the target of her bodyguards.

Thora scratched her forehead with her gun.

"Take one step and you are dead!" A voice behind spoke in the hall, grabbing everyone's attention.
