307-Found Him.

"Right now?" I heard Akin say to her in his shocking tone.

'But— I am kind of busy," he resisted until he went silent for another minute, and then his demeanor

changed.

'What? okay! I am coming,' he said in a very panicked state and hung up. I rushed back to the couch

where I was sitting before and pretended to be busy on my phone when he arrived in the room again.

"Okay, so!" he cleared his throat, 'Umm, I have to be somewhere right now—," he could tell himself he

had to give me a proper excuse to leave when we were busy discussing such an important issue.

'Actually, mom needs to be tamed for now. I am not sure how long till she starts telling Dad about your

identity, so I have to be there and make sure she understands me," he said without a gulp, making me

wonder how someone can be this good at lying.

Honestly speaking, it broke my heart. If only he had been stuttering, I would have thought he was

having a hard time lying to me, but sadly, that wasn't the case.

'At this time of night?' I asked him, with a clear sign that it sounded sketchy.

'Yeah! She will get angry if she finds out I am here with you. She definitely heard the news that I found

you, and Zane tried to calm her down, but if I don’t go there right now, she will assume I am here, and

then there will be no stopping her,' he sighed while stealing eyes from me.

There it was!

The guilt of lying to me. I gave him a nod and watched him grab his watch and leave the house, but

right when he was about to cross the door; he stopped and turned to look my way.

'I will be back soon, okay?" He looked so down when I nodded, and he had to leave.

’So? Don't tell me that wasn't sketchy. His mother can’t be miss naughty unless they are into weird shit,'

Ace, being insensitive, didn’t know when to stop, but it was also not a lie that Akin lied to me. I kept

staring at the door before getting up and finally deciding to follow Akin.

’He should not be hiding things when I told him my biggest truth,’ I said, grabbing my coat from earlier

and starting my journey to catch him with Miss Naughty.

Whatever she was doing by calling him late at night, she must have something going on. I remember

Akin telling me it was complicated, so I wanted to see how complicated it could be for him to lie so

bluntly for her.

I still had my scale in my pocket when I called myself an Uber and gave him the address to the same

house where I had seen Akin with someone.

Throughout the car ride, I couldn't help but chew on my nails and think about everything that had

happened today.

'Maddox is the one who ate our brother. I can sense that energy from him. But don't you think it is weird

that he sees himself being bowed by demons from hell? Couldn't it be---,' Ace stopped because she

had made me uncomfortable enough to shift in my seat and look outside the window.

You are trying to imply he is a man from hell?' I asked her after controlling my nerves.

'I am just pointing out the similarities. Everybody is focused on the twin part, but nobody is paying

attention to him standing in hell and everybody bowing to him. Couldn't it mean something?’ She

insisted that I keep this in mind, but I refused to think of Maddox in that light.

’Fine. Let's not talk about him. What about Zane?’ she said, and I frowned.

’What about him?’ I was still mad at him for hiding so many things from me and for lying to me.

’Why is he so fond of taming a weredragon?’ Now that she asked it aloud, I felt tiny needles poke my

skin.

‘I am not saying he is the Dark Knight, but why would he want to tame a dragon so badly? Is it some

sort of urge that he has no idea about? The Dark Knight will be a lost creature for some time before it

finds the path to reality and realizes what he is. So far, your dark knight has been Zane. He was mainly

the one who would come out of nowhere to save you. He was also the one who found out you are a

weredragon and urged taming you,’ she confused me, but I refused to listen to her.

He just wanted to tame me so that he could cheat on me, and I don't object to that.

’Well, then, tell me what you feel about Akin? Who is he?’ I asked uncomfortably, not ready to hear

anything sad about him.

’He is confusing me. But he is certainly not what he claims to be,' she finished, and the house has also

arrived.

I got out of the car and rushed towards the entrance, but I didn't knock on the door.

Did you have to call me this time?" Akin was talking to someone, but very aggressively.

’He was—acting up!" The girl spoke up, and I couldn't help but feel like I had heard this voice from

somewhere.

’What do you mean by that?" Akin asked, and she replied.

’He is------- why don't you go take a look? Maybe see what is happening here instead of

just leaving us here,' she complained, making me wonder what was going on in there.

'Did anybody suspect he was here?’ Akin asked her.

’Nobody has come looking for him," she answered. That’s when I heard Akin's footsteps, and I couldn't

help but walk all the way to the back, towards the window where he was headed. I heard the door

being slammed and knew exactly which room he had entered.

Nov/ that I was standing outside, I peered through the small area where the curtain failed to cover the

inside, and I met the biggest shock of my life.

*AHHH!" I gasped, "he had him all this time."

My heart seemed to have stopped beating right in that moment.
