My Aim

Luigi's POV

"Any news, Chigo?" I asked as he returned from the mission that I ordered him.

He bowed his head and said, "we still haven't found her, Beta. She is not yet home too."

I nodded, still unable to think where she is staying. It will be impossible from her to return in that place, after being almost killed by her own sister. I am sure that her father will not also let her be hurt again in that place. If that is the case, she is probably being treated in some hospital.

"Have you checked nearby hospital?" I asked, she is probably resting in some health institutions. I just hope that she is doing good, that her recovery is doing good.

"Yes, Beta. No traces of her, still." Chigo answered. I am sure that she is being treated, she needs to be treated. If she is not in any hospital, her father must have put her in a place where no ones know about it. It is possible that she is being treated in a secret place. I wonder where it is, though.

"And her father?" I asked. He is the key as to where she is, he must be.

"He is good at misleading us from following him... but a sight of Alpha with him has seen recently." He answered in a serious tone.

So, they are meeting secretly? I cannot think of any reason for them to meet, so it is probably because of Clary. Then, has Xylo found her then? Is he seeing her secretly?

There is only way to know the answers to these questions.

I went to his study room. I found him there reading some papers, probably the incident report in the Luna dinner or the reports about the news in borders. I could tell that it is about the kingdom, as the seriousness in his facial expression is evident.

"Do you know where Clary is?" I asked, too eager to find where she is.

He stopped from reading and looked at me directly. His eyes is flaming in anger just because he heard her name. I could tell from that expression of him that he knows where Clary is.

"Luigi..." He coldly said. "Why do you keep on sticking your nose with her?" He asked, he was angry. I could tell it by the way he sounded.

Xylo's POV

"Why do you keep on sticking your nose with her?" I asked, being furious of his question about her. I couldn't understand why he is keeping on bothering me about Clary. I cannot understand his sentiments toward her.

He did not answer, he just stared at me with those eyes of him. "Do you like her?" I finally asked, this has been bothering me since the day he laid his eyes on her. I have been worried about it since then. With the combination of strong will of Clary with her fragility, everyone could fall for her and I couldn't even mention how she looks like when she bites her lip. Damn, my brother probably fall for it, too.

Damn, I don't want her to be seen by other men. If she will be hanging around with other men, I would probably end up spending all my time protecting her from them...and I would be probably stalking her from afar just to be sure that no man will be ever come closer to her.

"What if I do?" Luigi bluntly said. I never liked him for being like this, meddling with my life.

Goddamn it.

I stared at him. I already expected this, I already expected that some men will be falling under her heels and I am prepared for that. I just did not anticipated that it is going to be my brother.

I punched him, "you know what I am feeling towards her." I said out of anger. Damn, why does he need to like someone that I have set my own eyes on.

He laughed sarcastically. I clenched my fist and punch him once more again.

"What, Xylo? You have brought her life in a threatening situation and now you are claiming to be in love with her?" He stated before punching me back. I bit my lip, unable to control the anger emerging within me.

I wasn't sure if I was angry with his attack or his words because I am too guilty for that. I am blaming myself for putting her in danger. It was because of me...

I let him punch me over and over again, without even fighting back. Hoping that this would even decrease the guilt that I am feeling.

Clary's POV

I am feeling a lot better now, the cast on my arm has been taken off. The doctor was of course surprised that I was able to recover that fast. I was surprised, too. But with my fathers word saying that my body heal faster when I am with someone I love, I kind of believed the fast recovery that I have made.

Alpha would always visit me, I never liked the idea of it, though. I know that he is busy, yet he is spending most of his time visiting me. I don't think he is aware that I heal fast whenever I am with him. I am kind of embarrassed to say that to him. Probably in some other time.

It has almost been three weeks since I came here, almost lifeless, now I am able to walk on my own. My doctor hasn't been that convinced that I should be leaving from this institution, he believes that I needed to be observed more. I can feel that I am fine, that I can do things on my own again. I am starting to be bored here and I really want to step foot outside this room.

I also need to train again, too. I still have duel to participate. The three weeks that has passed was too long for me, I need to start practicing my aim again.
