Untamed: The Alpha

395 BAD LUCK

“He can burn the whole nation for all I care.” Chaos shifted his attention back to the city.

“It’s bad if you think that way, because just like what you know from the very beginning, the only things that he cares about are you and the girl.” Hades extended his hand to pat his shoulder, but stopped midway when Chaos threw a dagger look at him. He didn’t want to be touched, or even having this devil close to him. “Careful. He can use anyone around you.”

Chaos didn’t know what brought Hades here, though it was not a surprise for this devil to find him even in the most secluded places in this world. However, he kept warning him about Aaron.

That devil was not like Hades, who would come to your doorstep looking for a fight or even to create trouble, no, Aaron would work sneakily, he loved to use anyone around him to do whatever he wanted.

Aaron was used to fabricating stories and making people fight against each other, while he would sit laid back in the shadows and watch from the dark.

Thus, all of those catastrophes could be said as part of what Aaron’s doing, but seeing how hard he was trying to let things blow up so out of proportion, it seemed his target was to bring Chaos down along with the whole world.

And the scary part was; he could do that. If he had been very patient to wait for the right time and cultivated his plan for such a long time, it was not a surprise the destruction and carnage that would happen in the future, which he wanted to create this time around, would be something that one could only imagine.

“Instead of warning me, why don’t you stop him yourself?” Chaos shifted his attention back to Hades, as he glared fiercely at him for disturbing this peaceful moment. Hades wouldn’t let him have this peace of mind, as he would keep bothering him about Aaron.

Because Aaron was so sneaky and moved surreptitiously, there was one moment, where Chaos forgot about him completely, as his focus was to gather his shattered souls.

.....

“Why should I?” Hades leaned his back against the wall, as he smirked at Chaos. “I like to see this, but because you are too relaxed, while Aaron is so eager to destroy you, it becomes very boring,” he said lightly. “So, here I am, warning you over and over again. You should thank me for this free service.”

On the other hand, what Hades wanted to say was, he loved to see how all of this unfolded. He liked to be a bystander, enjoying watching everything in this realm crumble to hell, but it was not very entertaining if there was no fight from Chaos’ side.

Meanwhile, Hades had his own plan, he had something that he wanted from all of this catastrophe that happened. After all, he was only eager to gain more benefits for himself.

“But, maybe you need to take a break.” Hades grinned at him. “You need to go on this date and relax, after all, she is the source of all of your suffering, so a date with her and a few more peaceful days will be fine and is worth it for you, right?”

Hades would always be there to help Chaos, but of course, a helping hand from a devil was akin to having a glass of sea water for those who were thirsty. They would only help you dig your own grave.

Just like Chaos, he kept wanting for Zuri to be by his side, even when death kept them apart, he rejected fate and even shattered his own soul, which caused him to become weak, just to be with her.

Because Chaos’ whole life was about finding her.

And here, Hades would help him to get his Blue back, but at the cost of himself.

Not immediately, but eventually... his dark side would come out, as he lost his control over it, and the unequalable destruction would be released in this realm...

“Think about that, my old friend,” Hades said before he disappeared from Chaos’ sight.

“Your hair is so beautiful,” an old lady complimented Zuri’s white hair when she entered her shop. There was no one in this shop, except her, but because she saw a beautiful dress that caught her eye, she came inside to try it on.

“Thank you,” Zuri said, smiling softly at the old lady, as she asked for the dress that she saw on display. “Can I try this?”

“Sure, there, you can try over there,” the old lady said, as she pointed to a changing room at the other side of this small shop.

This was a small village after all, there was not much that you could find here.

Zuri tried the dress and then looked at herself in the mirror and she liked her own reflection on this dress.

The color of this dress was deep red, which complimented her white hair and fair skin. It was very simple and was not too short, so Zuri was still comfortable in it, since it could be said she had never worn anything aside from shirts and pants while growing up.

“I will take this and I will wear it, how much is it?” Zuri came out of the changing room in that dress, while the old lady looked at her indulgently.

“You look so beautiful, are you going on a date?” she asked in a teasing tone, which made Zuri smile timidly and made the old lady laugh. “I will give you this necklace, it will compliment your dress.”

The old lady handed a necklace to Zuri and she looked at the liontin. “A wolf?”

“A white wolf,” she said. “You must be new here, but it is a charm from this village, the white wolf will keep you away from bad luck.”

“Bad luck?” Zuri stared at the shape of the liontin.
