Chapter 129 Morounes Cave

Xenon's POV

"Would you like to have a coffee inside?" The woman said I guess she is Divina Tarre... the queen of Dark World. "I want to have a little chat with you since my husband has gone on a business trip." I looked up to see her smiling sheepishly.

My body hurts a lot from the fights I had. Their soldiers are absolutely strong! I feel tired but I have to see Claire.

I shook my head "I'm sorry ma'am I-I'm here to see Claire. Please... let me see her... let me talk to her." I pleaded.

"You mean my daughter Venice?" She clarified and I turned confused for a sudden.

"Venice..." I whispered more to myself.

"Oh, it seems like you don't know her full name," Carlo said sarcastically. I knew him, his face is exposed all over the underground.

"We called her Venice, her second name is Claire so it seems like the outside called her Claire." She nodded in understanding.

I see... Venice Claire. A beautiful name, suited for an angel like her.

"Pfft! Hahhaha" I suddenly looked to where the laugh was coming to see Carlo laughing nonchalantly and Mrs. Tarre wears a smile on her face. "Did you just say, angel!? Dude! You better check your mind I think it's not in proper intact." He said laughing.

Did I said it out loud!? Fuck!

"Enough Carlo!" Mrs. Tarre yelled and Carlo suddenly stiffened as he turned quiet. "Young guy, why would you like to see my child?" She asked me softly.

"I... I need to see her ma'am... I love her. I want her back, I... can't live without her." I told her the truth and I don't care about the consequences.

All I need is Claire... her presence. "Why do you love her?" I suddenly looked at Carlo to see him looking serious.

"I couldn't explain my love for Claire but... she's my world and I'm nothing without her." I said looking at him and suddenly turned to look at Mrs. Tarre "Please, at least let me... see her." I pleaded once again and I can feel my eyes turning watery.

"I could... if she's here." She sadly stated I can see the pity in her eyes.

But sadness and worry covered me "W-what do you m-mean?"

"Venice hadn't gone home for several weeks. I'm afraid I can't help you, young guy. I was also confused but the moment I saw you, just then I know why." She said and suddenly turned worried. "I'm afraid for what she can do in the wilderness."

"Mom, don't worry. She lived there, she'll survive." Carlo assured.

"Wilderness...? Do you know where she might be?" I asked hoping.

"We don't know. Venice never tells us her whereabouts." Carlo stated.

"I see..." I looked down in defeat and decided to walk away.

Where the hell on earth could I find her?

"Wait!" I heard Mrs. Tarre called, I faced her waiting for another word. "Since you got here alive, I saw the determination you have to see my daughter. I am a mother and my intuition is better than anyone else."

After hearing those words, I suddenly got high hopes.

"Please tell me, ma'am, I'll go find her wherever it is," I said with full determination.

"This might be hard to believe... but I think, she's with her friends." She said.

Friends?

'By the way, when I was thirteen I made friends for the first time.'

"She mentioned her friends once but... I don't know who they are..." I said more to myself and looked up facing Mrs. Tarre. "Where could I find them?"

"In the Morounes Forest." I freeze the moment I heard those words.

Her friends... could it be? Oh shit!

I nodded to them and run towards the car trying to still my balance. I immediately get inside the car and drive away.

'It is the only person who got out in the Morounes Cave alive... it's absolutely a monster!'

'I made friends for the first time!'

She's not a monster... but a soft little child who tamed the wolves and made them friends instead of enemies.

'Breaking news, the Silencer once again killed a group of men known as blacklist kidnappers.'

She wasn't made to kill but to save the weak. She's my savior... my hero... my angel.

Oh, Claire, What the fuck have I done?

Accelerating the speed, I was determined. I will get her back no matter what, even death will face me in my journey.

Claire has experienced the worst of the world, she was denied all the favors, she never experienced happiness but pure evilness. And I... I denied her my love, I was a fool for falling into her lies but... once I see her, I will pour all of my feelings I have for her. I will love her for the rest of my life.

The Morounes Cave is known as the haven of the most dangerous creature, and the Morounes Forest is their territory where no one ever dared to set foot months after the news that the Silencer got out alive. Wolves became more dangerous as they were.

After hours of driving, I reached the Morounes Cave. I parked the car and got out, it was too dark probably the middle of the night but the light of the moon shines the place. I used the flashlight of my cellphone to light my way.

Just as I was about to take another step I heard howling of the wolves that freak the hell out of me!

I've never gone to this place and this is the first time. Where could I find the cave? Claire must be there.

This forest is too big and if I'm not careful, I will be lost and worst there might be hungry wolves waiting to eat me. I could hear some of them howling after a while.

After searching for an hour I see no trace of her, I have no other choice. "Claire!" I yelled calling her name, hoping she hears me. This might be a suicide but it doesn't matter anymore... my life already revolves around Claire... all I think is her.
