Untamed: The Alpha

508 A QUIET NIGHT

“You are safe now, you are with me,” Chaos whispered to her ears, as she sobbed and trembled in his arms. The sight of her right now made his anger boiled. His eyes turned even darker, but the way he held her was so gentle, especially when he whispered something to her ear to put her to sleep.

It took a while for Chaos to do that, but in the end, Zuri’s breathing became even and she fell into a deep slumber.

Chaos caressed her cheeks and wiped away her tears, she looked haggard, even though she was under the spell only less than two minutes, before Chaos came and pulled her away from her nightmare.

Meanwhile, Knox and Gael could only watch it, because the vibe that Chaos gave them was so dreadful, as if they took a step closer to his woman, he would rip them apart without a second thought, that was the first idea that came to their mind when they saw him in his current state.

Only after Zuri was put to sleep and thing became calm, Chaos raised his head and looked at Aaron dead in his eyes, as the devil smirked at him. He was standing right next to the alpha of the black wolf pack, who was cowering behind his warriors. What kind of alpha he was when he clearly didn’t have a guts to face the confrontation on his own.

“Come on, Chaos, you don’t need to glare at me like that, I didn’t do anything bad to her,” Aaron said lightly, he tilted his head and then spoke again in lighter tone. “Okay, I did something, but I just showed her precious moment that she seems forgotten.”

Chaos stood up with Zuri in his arms, he didn’t say anything, but the alpha started screaming, his screams pierced through the night and the tension in the air heightened, because those shifters didn’t understand why their alpha was screaming like that when no one touched him.

However, they realized this was the same way the girl with white hair screamed earlier all of sudden.

Those warriors in their beast and human form shifted their attention between Chaos and the alpha back and forth, didn’t know what to do at this point.

.....

They should have attacked Chaos, yet there was something in him that stopped them, let alone attacking him, they didn’t even dare to look at him right in the eyes, as if there was something on their chest that made them trembled only by the look of it. He was the embodiment of death.

“This is your way to get back to me?” Aaron didn’t take a pity to the alpha, who fell to the ground, holding his head with both hands, as he screamed on the top of his lungs, as though someone just beat him with hot rod.

The alpha kept screaming on the top of his lungs when the dreadful memories came flooding back to his mind and he ended up vomiting near Aaron’s foot, which the devil looked at him in disgust.

Chaos would have taken the alpha’s soul only if he was close enough to him to touch him, but without physical contact, he couldn’t do that and moreover, it was because he didn’t want to leave Zuri alone.

There was no guarantee that Aaron wouldn’t do something to her once he left her out of his sight for a second and Gael and Knox were not a match for the devil. Chaos would never let any potential harm came to her way, especially when he was there.

Chaos also couldn’t kill the alpha, because if he did that, his soul would take another host.

“What are you waiting for?” Aaron was being impatient now when he saw the unsightly condition of the alpha, as he ordered the warriors there to do something about this situation. These stupid shifters couldn’t take the initiative to do the right thing and always needed guidance. It started to piss him off. What a useless thing… “Are you waiting until your alpha is dead because of his curse on him?”

Only then, those shifters, who were still in their human form, shifted into their beast and started attacking them.

However, they didn’t manage to take even a closer range to endanger them when all of sudden their body was burned, as if there was someone set fire on them.

Their roaring in agony and anguish overpowered the scream from their alpha when their body burned to dust.

The night was full of horror and their howls in pain was so deafening, yet it didn’t last long before those beasts had turned into dust and the night resumed it peacefulness, while the alpha had passed out because he was no longer able to handle the situation.

“Well, I think there is no need for me to stay here any longer now,” Aaron said when everything went quiet now. He glanced at the alpha with disgusting look before he smiled at Chaos again. “I think we will meet with each other often now.”

And with that, he disappeared from their sight, leaving a few black butterflies that fluttered its tiny wings, but then Knox waved his hand and those poor butterflies were cut into half, fidgeting on the ground before remained still.

“So?” Gael broke the silence after Aaron left with the alpha. “Don’t we chase after them?” He looked at Chaos and Knox. “I can take Zuri back to the hotel if you want to chase after him.”

But then, Gael immediately clamped his mouth shut after he got a glare for suggesting the idea from Chaos.

Leaving Zuri was the last thing in his mind right now, no matter with whom she would be, he wouldn’t leave her out of his sight.

Chaos cradled the girl in his arms nuzzled her face before he disappeared, leaving the two of them.
