Chapter 68

Rain knows his action are definitely questionable so he spoke to him "you had the same reaction when I found you unconscious after taking the drugs that time at the south, your heart was barely beating even I though you are going into an overdose"

Hearing that Yohan checked his arms and saw a fresh needle trace in there "I…don't remember I took them" he said in a defeated tone and disappointment hugging himself in that coat "after all what I went through..."

Orthrus said kind of feeling at ease "at least you are alive! Let's go eat breakfast dude you made me sober" he said pushing him away leaving the three standing there.

Rain look at Yuki asking "Let's go to the reception"

Yuki touched her heart and said with a very sad tone "can I have some time to think about it?" then walked away.

Rain looks at her leaving, he knows that she starts to feel attached, and if Yuki did it is hard to let go even if they were lying to her. He turn to look at Dena who seems like the blood finally running in her face again "you were actually worried about him?" Dena nodded looking guilty at him, she take a breath out and said…

 

------------// yesterday.

Dena opened her eyes looking at everyone wasted and sleeping, she look at the room door and stand taking her purse with her walking to it, opening it, to find Yohan sleeping on the sofa. "Even when I give you a sleeping drug you were the last to sleep" she said annoyed of the time she was acting asleep on the table, she took out from her purse the box once she stole from Yohan before his meeting once and open it taking the drug needles.

she stopped thinking of the words he said about her…"I never blame her, she is afraid I will take your place, if I was her I would be worrying too about the only one who actually count me as family" but she shakes the idea off her brain and slowly gives two shots then look at the third thinking that Orthrus once said he took 4, she finished the other two and throw everything around so they would think he did it then went back to sleep out on the table.

------------// now.

 

"you really hate him" Rain shakes his head in disbelieve hearing her story, knowing that she is definitely dangerous to keep around yet that Lex still having her even if he knows what she did

"But I meant for him to look bad not kill him! Orthrus start to look so up to him and was so proud like he is the leader"

Rain couldn't say a thing, if he was the one planning everything he sure will be proud of, even if he was on Hades shoes someone with his brain is a golden spoon

"I know there is a difference between the planner and the leader but Lex is having potential for both" Dena was convincing herself more than telling him

"Just be careful, looking at the two if Orthrus knows what you are doing I guess he will take Lex side"

"And that what worries me the most" Dena frown "he can betrayed his own sister for a total stranger"

Rain shake his head explaining "at this point, Lex is right, you will be looking as Hades enemy and Orthrus will be choosing his father over you, don't do anything reckless for now, just keep it low"

Dena nodded understanding

The time was evening when Yohan he finished a scheduled operation "I will be leaving" he said to the receptionist

"Sir!"

She called

"The dentist didn't come for two days"

Yohan thought about it, he nodded with "if she didn't come this week put an applicant online"

"Yes sir"

He walk back to his car and when he got in he saw the coat on the passenger seat, thinking he should give it back, maybe he can give it to Dena and she will be gladly giving it to Rain finding a reason to meet him.

That when he saw his phone ringing and didn't recognize the number he answered with a lazy tone "hello?"

The caller: I left my wallet on the coat, and I need it

Yohan look at the coat then look at his phone realizing it was Rain "where I should sent it?"

Rain: Where are you now, I come grab it

Yohan look around "actually I am on the road where you at? I can stop by"

Rain: good, at the T-flow restaurant

"I will put it in the reception" Yohan said knowing that he can't just go inside that VIP restaurant. After that sentence the phone call ended and Yohan was looking at the phone with "did Dena gives him my number?" he wonder but grimaced driving to that restaurant.

 

------// T-flow restaurant

 

It took him around 20 minutes to arrive to that restaurant, he took the coat and walks in there stopping at the reception asking "is there someone here having dinner by the name Rain Volk"

The receptionist smiled to him with "how can I help you exactly"

Yohan know she avoided to give the information and he knows that actually is a 'yes' "this is his coat, he asked to bring it to him"

The receptionist smiled with "he indeed does" and took the coat. That was his queue to leave when she did and he walks to the door just to be called

"Iatros"

Yohan had shivers remembering that voice, he was right in front of the door when he wanted to act like he didn't hear his nickname being called. But he can't turning around seeing Rain coming with his father, and yes Edgar was the one calling.

Seeing him he bow in respect "Mr. Volk" he said

And Edgar stopped looking at him, and even nodded "indeed you look so similar" he turn to look at his son "we just finish our dinner sadly you didn't arrive earlier we could had a good talk"

Yohan put a smile on his face "I will be honored"

"I am also honored to meet the brain of Hades" he said pulling his arm for a hand-shake

Yohan always felt that Edgar aura isn't a joke, he made the hand shake with a respect nod but noticed him staring at his hand. Edgar break the hand shake with a grin in his face "nice ring"

Yohan look at his hand seeing the ring and put his hand behind with "Thanks, I will excuse myself now" he said bowing in respect and left the restaurant.

Edgar looked at Rain strangely and the other said a "what?"

"Go get your coat" He simply said and saw his son going. When he was far enough he spoke with himself "he is stupid I swear" he look at his men ordering "no red-circle men aloud to harm that Hades kid, do you understand?"

"Yes sir"

Orthrus was sitting on that build of stone laboratory table "the police cleaned some area for us, yet we don't have that much men to be everywhere"

Yohan who was observing something in his microscope looks up at him "should we recruit some?"

Orthrus looks at him confused "recruit"

Yohan lean against the backrest of the chair he was sitting at looking at Orthrus "actually I was planning to take some of the Hellhounds but it is too risky and early to mix the men"

"We can keep them separated on those area we took lately but…" Orthrus frown "Who do you think will let the Hellhounds and follow you?"

Yohan smiled "someone who know what am I capable of" but then his phone rang and seeing the caller he told Orthrus to stay silent "hello…okay…tomorrow at 7pm…yes…I will be there" then he ended the call

"Are you going somewhere?" Orthrus asked

"The south" Yohan answered seeing Orthrus face got gloomy "It is a side deal I made with JiYun to call Edgar at the spot, I will let him meet a client from the south and come back"

"What are they selling?"

"A crystal fragment, it is something the Hellhounds are obsessed with"

"I should go with you"

Yohan shake his head "if you go, who will stay here? Dena?" he went back to the microscope looking at it "It won't take long, even if anything bad happens you should be safe for Hades future"

Orthrus grimaced "please don't jinxed it" he jumped down with "I will be going now, see you after" he saw Yohan waves him goodbye while he was still focused on his work. He walks out going up to find Yuki coming to the hospital, he smiled running to her with "Yuki, you finally came"

Yuki looked at him with a smile "Orthrus, thank you so much for helping me"

And Orthrus mad an unpleasant face "are you going to leave to the south too?"

"What?" Yuki didn't understand

"Nothing, I just got mad at Yohan, I am sorry you sounded like you are about to say goodbye too" Orthrus huffs and Yuki felt little embarrassed because that was her purpose of coming

"No, I just thought that I still didn't thank you for saving me that day" she smiled and Orthrus felt relieved "I will be going to work now"

Orthrus nodded smiling "I won't bother you more than"

Yuki felt disappointed of her failure, she walks to the dentist area to work, after few hours her phone rang and it was Rain asking her how it went

"I couldn't tell him anything…"
