The Veil

Chapter # 10

(Name) has spent three hours of her time with Satoru Gojo willingly and she didn't regret it.

She was very surprised at how calm and tolerant he was.

(Name)'s phone rang as they were walking back to the manor.

"Hello,"

"Hey, (Name)." She stopped in her tracks, "how long has it been since we spoke? Huh, you've completely forgotten about me, have you not?"

She kept silent, "please let me hear that beautiful voice of yours, (name), it's been too long."

The venom in her voice surprised Gojo who was waiting for her to continue walking, "What do you want?"

"Nothing, darling, just calling to tell you your little friend is on a date with me."

"What---" she figured who he was referring to, "don't you dare lay a finger on her."

"She started it, I just gave her a piece of my mind."

"You son of a shit! I'm gonna kill you!" She yelled at the man on the other side.

"Darling, first you gotta find me." The man chuckled.

"Where are you?! I'm gonna rip your intestines for what you did!"

"We'll see who is ripping who, (Name)." The man ended the call.

"What happened, (Name)?"

She ignored his question and typed a number on her phone, "hello, Zayn, what was the last mission Arshi was assigned?"

"Is everything okay?"

"No, but it'll be, just tell me already."

"Yeah, let me check...hmmm, it was the temple outside the city."

"Thank you," she ends the call.

"(Name), what is wrong?" Gojo grabbed her arm.

"It's Arshi" her voice was so feeble and scared, "I have to save her."

"Where is she?"

"The temple outside the city, I have to go you can head back to the manor."

"No, I'm coming with you."

"Don't be ridiculous, it's not your fight."

He spoke but his voice was stern nothing like she has ever heard before, "No, I'm coming with you and you can't stop me."

"Alright, I can't stop you can I?"

"World's strongest remember?" His voice was as cocky as ever, "let's go,"

He scooped her in his arms.

She wrapped her arms around his neck, "Hey! I can walk."

"I know, but I'm faster and I don't think you can walk in this attire." He motioned to her dress that has been especially tight around her hips and thighs.

"Just this once I give you the privilege to carry me."

"Okay, hold on." To her surprise Satoru Gojo was floating.

"Wait, you can fly?!" Her voice was just a shriek over the constant smack of wind against her.

"One of my specialties."

                    (-------------------------------)

"We're here." He gently placed her on her feet.

Her legs wobbling and her lungs were out of breath, "Never carry me like that ever again."
She placed a hand over his shoulder to take off the heels she has been wearing all this time, throwing them. She grabbed one end of her dress and ripped it.
