Fated To Three, And I Broke Them All novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353: 353-Acting Sus!

Jaguar:

Nights had changed. Or maybe it was the moments I spent with Verity that had become special.

Never had I imagined I would reach a point where I could forget the rest of the world whenever I was with her.

Yet that was exactly what had been happening lately, and that was the crazy part.

Lying beside Verity after another perfect night together, I couldn’t help wondering what had changed in me.

Obviously, something had.

I wasn’t the same Jaguar I had been before.

If I were, I would have been going crazy right now, running around looking for Gigi, my best friend.

I used to think that, God forbid, if Gigi ever left us, we would all be devastated.

Our lives would fall apart, and some spark inside us would disappear with her.

But that hadn’t happened.

Of course I missed her. I worried about her whenever we were out in the field searching.

We panicked. We were anxious.

But when we weren’t searching, things were different.

I couldn’t speak for the others, but I wasn’t as devastated as I had always imagined I would be.

I prayed for Gigi to be safe, yet my normal life continued, and there was only one reason for that.

I turned my head toward Verity.

She was asleep beneath the covers, her bare shoulders visible, her beautiful platinum-blonde hair scattered across the pillow and blanket.

Rolling onto my side, I gently gathered strands of her hair between my fingers, like collecting silver feathers.

She had become so important in my life that everything else seemed to fade from my mind.

I still thought about Gigi.

I still prayed that we would find her, because I wanted Verity to have a fair chance to be introduced as my girlfriend without everyone being consumed by something else.

My fingers traced along her arm before I leaned over and kissed her shoulder.

And it wasn’t only her beauty that drove me crazy.

There was something about the way she spoke, the way she rolled her eyes, even the way she questioned me and put me in my place.

I needed someone who would remind me exactly where I stood whenever I crossed the line.

After a while, my phone started beeping.

These days, that wasn’t unusual. It rang constantly, and it was usually Ragnar calling with an update on whether they had found any news about Gigi.

The moment I saw Ragnar’s name on the screen, sadness engulfed me.

That was the problem. No matter how much we wanted to escape the tension, we couldn’t.

I just couldn’t understand what we could have done differently to stop Gigi from taking that step.

With so many days having passed, I was beginning to worry about her even more, wondering whether we would find her alive.

I immediately shook the thought away.

Even thinking about it felt insane.

Then a message popped up on my screen. Ragnar was asking where I was.

I could tell he was probably feeling lonely.
