With the Gang Leader

Chapter 7

07. Her presence is delighted.

One hour passed and situation was still the same as it was for the first minute. Chasity was irritating the shit out of Alec and on the opposite end Luke and Rayne, looked like they have been best friends since days.

Alec wanted Rayne now. Although he hadn't been with her, he knew that she was better than Chasity.

"My legs hurt", Chasity whined.

"Keep walking", Alec gushed out .

" I think you should carry me."

" What? "

" Nothing", she rolled her eyes .

There again, the attempts made by Chasity to find his sweet spots were failing from the beginning.

Suddenly, he stopped walking and tried to put his focus on the very sweet voice that was faintly audible in the cover of trees.

"Do you hear that?", he asked .

"What? ", Chasity muttered .

" Listen closely", he mumbled .

She put her hands around the ears in a concave shape and tried to hear something.

"I have listened to it before. Wait! I think it is Rayne", she mumbled to herself .

" Rayne?", he tried her name on his tongue, for what it was counted as the second time .

" Yes. I thoroughly remember her unpleasant voice", she rumbled with the fantasy that her step sister is no good than her in any place .

"Let's follow it ." He budged his step closer to the source of the beautiful voice that stood vast in the covers of the majestic jungle .

Chasity followed Alec. Their condition was pitiful. To what it seemed, Chasity's caked face was melting. Her dress was dirty and she was very desperate to find any piece of civilization.

Alec, for who he was, had to deal with this stuff. He was not complaining, but he was torn and sore on the inside.

After a few strangled step, they reached to the midst of a clearing, and saw Rayne sitting on a big rock and Luke, their pilot next to her, totally interested in the lyrics.

"You can be amazing. You can-what was after that once again? ", Luke found it hard to cope up with the singing of the lyrics .

"This is like the tenth time you have asked me", Rayne folded her hands so that they touched her chest.

"Pretty please ."

"Fine. But this is the last time."

"Okay."

" You can be amazing. You can turn a phrase into a weapon or drug. You can be the outcast or be the backlash of somebody's lack of love or you can start -", Rayne was interrupted by the itchy-in-the-ears, high pitched voice of her sister .

"What are you doing, Rayne?!", Chasity yelled .

"Umm ...I ...was-", Rayne struggled with the choice of words.

"Shut up!", Chasity cut her off, " We are trying to save our lives and you are playing some dim wit song here!-

"-And I see that you have already hooked up with Luke. You will always be a whore."

" No...I-", Rayne looked down at her toes .

"Please shut your mouth. What about my things, huh? You brought your stuff. Don't you have brain-", Chasity scolded her.

" It's all my fault, ma'am.",Luke apologized.

"It's okay. Chasity that's enough.", Alec budged in .

Then came the sounds of a vehicle. No doubt, it was for their rescue. But not the rescue Luke called.

Within minutes it was clear that only two people can go. It was what the driver said.

"Alec and I will go. Come on, Alec.", Chasity took one seat right away but Alec was glued to the ground .

"You can go Rayne", he suggested .

"No way I am going with her", Chasity complained .

"Fine then, Luke you go", he this time, ordered .

"It's okay, sir -"

Alec cut off Luke, " It's an order."

"Thank you sir. Thank you Rayne for saving me", Luke conversed his last thankful greeting.

Rayne just smiled.

Then, the two went away. Leaving, Alec and Rayne, as they waited for another rescue to come .

It was quiet now. It was only him and her.
