Chapter 57: A shield

"Wait...What?" Frowning his eyebrows, Czar reciprocated her in a stiff tone.

"You are really acting so strange today. From your perplexed gestures, it seems you don't wanna let me go inside the room. Why? Are you trying to hide something?" She sounded pretty intense, gawking at him strictly.

His intentions were being exposed by her witty nature which caused him to panic hard internally. Staring at him with a small dubious smirk on his face, he murmured slowly, "Ivory, are you being suspicious of me?"

"Whenever something comes to Zeus... I can't even trust the divinity. So, be honest with me Czar. Why don't you want me to go inside?" All of a sudden, her voice constricted as a wild thought struck her mind in a jolt. "Have...Have you done something to him?" She whispered under low breath.

"Pffft!" He smirked with her striking assumption and continued staring straight into her eye intensely, tapping his right feet on the ground in a rhythm. "Are you trying to accuse me that I might have harmed my big brother in this severe state? Are you distrustful of me?"

Suddenly, she swirled her dark brown eyeballs wider at him in awe. "Don't tell me, Czar... Don't tell me you have done something to..." She couldn't complete her words as her expressions looked much fretful. "Move aside Czar! I want to go inside!" Suddenly, her voice along with her gestures seemed very restless, trying to traverse his block and dash inside to Zeus.

"Wait a minute!" All of a sudden, he grabbed her forearm intending to stop her from rushing in. Intensively he stared straight into her and sounded much dubious, "before you go inside, I...I want to state something to you--"

"I can't focus on a single conversation right now! It's my command...leave my arm and step aside, Czar!" All of a sudden, she grumbled at him in a dominant loud noise and shoved her hand away from his grasp. Without wasting a single second anymore, in a heavy jolt, she dashed inside the room with her gallant footsteps.

...

DASHH!

The gigantic door partitions opened inside making a heavy loud noise and in a dash, Ivory rushed inside the room with a hysterical expression imprinted on her face. But she didn't even imagine in her wildest dream to witness the view inside which shocked her inner core!

With the unforeseen tumultuous noise of the door opening, Eva jolted in surprise, standing up from the bedside, and immediately turned behind to witness the raucous happening there. She was startled and spellbound to watch Ivory dashing inside the room unexpectedly and continued gawking at her in awe.

Her motion paused along with her mind taking a bit of time trying to process the shocking reality in front of her. It didn't take any longer to perceive that she was the only one for whom Zeus tossed away everything...even his own life so easily without thinking about his own pack! Moreover, she had confronted her in his office prior too which had imprinted a clear picture of her in her mind.

She glared at Eva for a few seconds looking all stiff and after a while, her gaze shifted towards her arm which was still gripped on with Zeus. The unexpected sight provoked burning wrath in her heart.

Abruptly, Eva understood that she was glaring at their intertwined hands, and with a panicked gesture, she quickly let go of his arm in a hush. She seemed terrified and swooned in fear being unable to make firm eye contact with her fiery gaze. Just behind her, Czar dashed inside the room too and huffed a deep breath looking at the sudden messed up situation.

Clenching her fist hard, Ivory took a bold vicious step towards her. From her facial gestures, she seemed much vexed, fuming in rage. Czar abruptly sensed the upcoming severe chaos and in a flick of a second, rushed ahead of her blocking her way to head straight towards Eva.

With his interference, she seemed extremely infuriated and glared at him rolling her eyes wider. "Why the heck you are stopping me again--"

"Calm down a little before jumping to any conclusion. I can explain--"

"You can explain? Have you gone nuts, Czar?" Grumbling in an atrocious tone, she transmitted a dark death stare at her. "This...This vile human dared to step inside Zeus's room and you are asking me to calm down? Today... Zeus is in this pathetic condition just because to save her damn life! How the fuck I can calm down?" She snapped at him.

"Ivory if you keep raising your voice like this... you will be inviting more unwanted attention here. You know it well...if something happens to her... Zeus won't be happy with you ever again... Please understand my concern and tone down a little." He was trying to convince her quite hard, lowering his voice in a polite note.

She stood all frigid glaring at Eva who seemed to be petrified in fear and anguish, standing at the corner of the room lowering her grimace down clenching the laces of her maid skirt. Ivory took a deep breath after hearing out his plead and shifted her glare straight to Czar.

"Be honest with me...Did you help her to sneak inside?" In an intense voice, she probed.

"I just helped her to witness his condition... She sneaked here on her own but I guided her inside--"

"Why?"

"H-Huh?"

"Why did you commit such a blunder, Czar!? Why the fuck you let her take a single step inside our mansion? What the heck is wrong with you?" All of a sudden, she lost her calm, bursting out her agitation on him in a screeching note.

Terrified with apprehension, Eva took slow small steps towards Czar and stood right behind him with her shivering fragile body. He was guarding her against her wrath like a shield which ensured her a dim ray of hope and consign in that disastrous situation.

"I have my reasons for choosing to help her. It was my own decision." In a dubious intense tone, he reciprocated her back.

"So it means you could put our entire existence in danger just to help this damn wench?" Gritting her teeth in anger, she grumbled at him while glaring viciously at Eva. "It's enough for me to bear now! This damn wench is destroying our whole pack! I will kill her right now and wrap up the story here!" She boldly marched forward towards her clenching her fist hard.

All of a sudden, Czar grabbed by her forearm and blocked her way gallantly from moving ahead forbidding her from the further approach. Immediately, his dilated eyeballs transformed the color into shimmering dark blue as he glared at her back, "don't... don't touch her." He muttered.
