Cupid's Arrow Hit On Me novel (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 1378

Zachary believed that Serenity would go home with him so long as he made it inside without bothering the Soxes from their rest.

With that in mind, a certain somebody got into action.

He had no idea that the Soxes’ hounds were spying on him in a corner.

Zachary climbed up the gate, ready to jump off when he turned and saw two wolfhounds fixating on him.

Zachary nearly lost his wits.

He knew that the nearby neighbors had dogs.

These dogs were barking as he drove past their houses to get to the Soxes’ residence.

However, he had no clue that the Soxes kept dogs.

The dogs belonging to the neighbors stopped barking when he pulled up in front of the Soxes’ residence and the Soxes’ dogs did not make a sound either.

It never occurred to him that these hounds were not barkers.

The saying was all bark and no bite, but if it were the other way round…

These dogs would have ripped him apart if he jumped without turning over to look.

Woof! Woof—

Seeing that Zachary had no intentions to jump, the hounds started growling at Zachary.

Zachary then noticed a light coming onto the Soxes’ property. He quickly jumped off the other side of the gate and returned to his car upon landing. Leaning against his car, he pretended like nothing ever happened and tried to pull a cigarette out to smoke. Zachary could not find his cigarette pack.

He rarely smoked now since Serenity was not keen on the smell of tobacco.

Zachary did not carry any cigarettes with him.

“Who is it, Whiskey?”

Mrs. Sox’s voice was heard.

She came out of the house and turned on the lights in the yard. With the dogs barking toward the gate, she walked down the steps to get a closer look.

Zachary approached the gate to the yard and said, “Mrs. Sox, it’s me, Zachary.”
