Chapter 39: What Is Dead May Never Die.

Just as I turned around, I can feel he's going to explode any minute now.

And I was right.

As I stepped out of the stage and make my way to Gage and Cece's spot, his voice boomed, telling the whole crowd to get the freaking hell out of this place fast or else. I can't help but smirk, when they all panicked and rushed out of the Hall in no time.

There were several people who took their time as they exit. I guess they're high ranked, and it would be very humiliating for them if they rush out like cowards. Well, they care for their reputation but they followed nonetheless. They also cared for their lives, and disregarding King's words would be a death wish.

"Whoa. Comeback is real, baby." Gage exclaimed while giving me slow claps. I flipped my imaginary bangs, making him laugh even harder.

And as the killjoy she is right now, Cece sighed beside him. "I don't know if you two would still be happy when you face the consequences of what you're doing."

"What consequences? We're not doing anything wrong. Right?" I looked at Gage for support.

He smugly smirked and nodded his head. "Yeah, that's right. We haven't make anything yet. Maybe later. How's that to you, baby girl? Don't worry, I'll leave the door wide open just for you."

Cece and I looked at each other and gaped at him. Shock at his words, I unintentionally punch him in the stomach. But I hit him harder than I intended, so he was pushed back a little.

I kept on apologizing, but can't stop laughing with Cece when we looked at Gage's reaction. He told me I'm being a bully again, but I can't help it. He looked like he's about to throw up.

"Looks like you're all having fun, mind if I join?" Someone I knew chimed in suddenly.

I gave the two the look, sending them a message that I want to leave now. They nodded but when I was to take a step, I was stopped by a tight grip on my wrist. "How did you get in here?"

"We--" Gage tried to speak but was quickly cut off when King raised his hand, making him take a step back and raised his hands in surrender instead.

"What are you doing here?" He asked, but got no answer from me. He asked again with emphasis, and tighten his grip when I stayed silent. "What are you doing here?"

I don't even bother looking at him and it only made him more irritated. "You're still alive."

Yeah, boi. Alive and gorgeous as always. Summer flipped her hair.. or fur.. I dunno.

"I thought you were dead."

You thought wrong. We fist bumped at that.

"After leaving me, now you have the guts to ruin my day?" King said through gritted teeth. "My life even."

"I've been searching everyday and everywhere for you."

"Everybody told me to stop, but I didn't listen."

"Then I found nothing. I just wasted my fucking time. Should have listen to them."

"I tried to forget you, even if it's hard." He groaned, and kept a tight grip on my wrist.

Oh baby, it's always hard. Summer suddenly purred, making me wanna cuss at her for giving a double meaning to that statement.

"So I just thought, why not think of you dead? So I could easily forget you?" He said in a happy tone, like he's just talking about the sunny weather earlier.
