His Precious Love

Chapter 678

Rayna touched both sides of her neck but found nothing unusual. However, Furry, the creature, kept staring intently at her without even blinking once.

“Does it plan to keep staring at me like that?” Rayna reached out a hand, and Curtis took her hand while he shot the mysterious creature a look.

“I'll ask the staff to get us a new room.”

Nodding, Rayna agreed, “Yeah, I guess that's the only way.”

They dared not to mess with Furry, anyway. “Let's change rooms without telling the staff about it. Who knows, maybe it'll be gone in the morning.”

“Sure.” With that, Curtis went outside of the room and phoned Robin, instructing the latter to ask the receptionist for a change of rooms.

After that, he turned back around to enter the room, only to see Furry making a circle before curling itself and falling asleep on the quilt, much like a cat.

Feeling his head ache, Curtis rubbed his temples.

“Looks like it's made a nest on our bed.” Rayna felt Furry lying on her legs and tried caressing it to find it curling up like a fluffy ball.

“Yeah.” Curtis strode forward to take the glass of water from the nightstand for Rayna. “Here, have some water.”

Rayna fetched the glass and carefully took a sip, preventing herself from making big movements lest she disturbed Furry.

“It's on my legs,” Rayna commented as she gave Curtis the now-empty glass. “Why don't we... just stay in this room?”

“No,” Curtis refused. “We don't know where it came from. I'm not at ease to be in the same room with it.”

Curtis was worried that Furry was coming for the blood parasite in Rayna's body, and he recalled how Simone mentioned that the blood parasite should not be triggered, otherwise Rayna would be in danger any minute.

“But it's not harming us. It didn't even get hostile when I petted it earlier,” the woman reasoned.

“No. We don't even know what it is. How could I allow it to be in the same room as us?”

Upon hearing Curtis' firm tone, Rayna pouted helplessly. Even though she could not see Furry's specific appearance, she could still tell its general form with help from her imagination. “Does it look like a cat?”

“Cats have ears. This one doesn't.” Curtis stood on the side of the bed, glancing at the creature that

seemed to be fast asleep.

“Does it have a pair of blue eyes?” Rayna was extremely curious about Furry. When it stared at her earlier, she noticed the blue dots, even though her vision was blurry.

“Yeah, and we don't even know if it's because of a mutation,” Curtis responded flatly, not even trying to conceal his dislike toward the creature.

As his words fell, Rayna pinched the man's arm, but he did not react to it.

“I'm telling the truth,” he added, occasionally keeping an eye on the sleeping creature.

Right at this moment, his phone vibrated in his hand. Staring at the screen, he noted that it was a call from Robin, and he walked to the side to take the call.

“Mr. Faymon, I asked the receptionist. He said there's a vacant room right beside yours. I booked it.” On the other side of the phone, Robin exited the elevator with a keycard in hand. “I'm outside your room now.”

“All right.” Ending the call, Curtis turned around and walked to the bed, planning to pick Rayna up.

“Are we really changing rooms?” the woman questioned.

“Yes,” replied Curtis straightforwardly.

“Slow down. Let me pull my legs out first. Don't disturb it.” Rayna carefully moved her right leg, trying her best not to wake Furry as she quietly tried to leave.

The whole process took around two minutes. Just when Curtis managed to pick Rayna up, the initially sleeping Furry suddenly opened its blue eyes, and it stared at the woman without even blinking.

As Rayna had her back toward Furry, she did not notice, but Curtis did.

Even so, he still left the room with the woman in his arms. When Robin came in, he froze upon seeing the furry creature on the bed. “Block it! Don't let it follow us!” Curtis shouted.

Hearing that, Robin reacted just in time and immediately shut the door, locking Furry inside.

Wrapping her arms around the man's neck, Rayna whispered, “We still woke it.”

“Ignore it.” Still carrying Rayna, Curtis approached the other room, and Robin stepped forward to open the door.

“Wouldn't it make noise?” Rayna asked, still worried. “What if it wakes other people?”

“How loud can that tiny thing go? Let it cry,” Curtis uttered, remembering the tiny sounds Furry had made earlier.

“Did you take its picture?” Rayna asked the man who was busying around in the room as she sat on the bed.

“Nope.” Curtis bent down to check under the bed, under the coffee table, around the cabinet, and in

every corner of the room. After making sure that there was no second one, only then did he lift the quilt and lay on the bed.

Placing her head on Curtis' shoulder, Rayna pinched his cheek. “Are you mad?”

“Yeah,” the man replied simply. “It's still early. We have more time to sleep.”

Nodding, Rayna was about to adjust into a lying position when she heard the voice from earlier.

Not only did she hear it, but Curtis as well.

“You're hearing that, aren't you?” Rayna asked, pushing Curtis lightly.

“I'll go and take a look.” Curtis lifted the quilt and got out of bed. However, even after checking the entire room, he found nothing, yet the sound was still there.

While sitting on the bed, Rayna paid full attention, trying to identify where the voice came from. After that, she, too, lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

Upon seeing that, Curtis was about to stop her when he saw her fumbling toward the window.

He strode forward and pulled the curtain open to see the creature that was supposedly locked in the room next door now on top of the air-conditioning machine outside their new room.

“Is it outside?” Rayna queried.

“Yeah, but just ignore it. It'll leave on its own when it gets bored.”

With that said, Curtis pulled Rayna toward the bed, but the latter halted her steps. “But isn't it raining outside?” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

She heard the sounds of the rain pelting against the window when she was near it just now.

“Rayna, the kids and I still need you,” Curtis responded.

His words made Rayna's heart ache. “I know.”

But that furry thing didn't hurt me, and it's raining. I feel bad about locking it outside. No matter what, it's a life we're talking about here.

Furry was still outside the window. After seeing Rayna inside the room, it curled itself up and stared at her unblinkingly.

Just when they neared the bed, Rayna halted her steps again and begged, “It's all right. Let it inside. It didn't even do anything when it was with us in the previous room. All it did was lay on the bed. Besides, it's raining outside. It'll get wet.”

Curtis noticed Rayna's concerned expression as she stared at the furry creature outside the window. Even though he was still worried, he did not want to see her unhappy.

“Okay, I'll let it in. You stay right there,” Curtis uttered before turning around and approaching the window to push it. When the gap under the window was big enough for Furry, he stopped pushing it. “Come in.”
