Untamed: The Alpha

Chapter 306

306 MEMORY OF THE PAST (3)

Zuri had seen Chaos getting furious and becoming very violent, but she had never seen him feeling so hurt like this. He was outright devastated to find his little companion bled to death after the torture that the wolf had to endure from the people of the village.

The little wolf had been dead for hours before Chaos could finally find her, because the wolf was not around the river or anywhere.

Once Chaos couldn’t find the little wolf around the places they usually hung out at, he tried more vigorously to look for her whereabouts. It was not a great deal for him to figure this out.

Yet, the great deal was when he saw what those nasty people had done to her.

Sadness was not even a word that could describe what Zuri felt when she saw Chaos scoop the wolf’s bleeding body and stood there in silence. He did not care about the blood that stained his clothes, as he hugged the wolf tightly, caressing its damp fur, which was dyed in blood.

He looked at the wolf closely, trying to find a sign, any sign that could tell you that there was still a way to save this little creature. Yet, if Zuri knew there was no way for that, Chaos too must have realized it already.

However, he was still clinging to the sliver of hope of a miracle that would never happen.

Chaos stood there like a statue for hours, in the same position. He didn’t even move an inch at this time, as if he had been nailed to the ground.

There were no tears in his eyes, yet heart wrenching agony could be seen vividly in his eyes from the way he stared at his companion. It was only a few nights ago that he figured out she was a shifter, the moon goddess’ new creation. He only figured out that this wolf could turn into a young girl, talk to him and respond to every question that he asked.

.....

It was the most fascinating moment for Chaos as long as he existed. The only joy that he had in this realm, as he was a walking curse that destroyed everything that got close to him.

No one could escape the destruction he wrought.

However, the wolf didn’t leave him, Blue wasn’t scared of him and the most important thing was; he didn’t cause her any harm, at least, not until now.

This little wolf in his arms was the only joy that Chaos could have while walking this realm.

And yet, these nasty humans had taken the only light in his life away from him as well. They killed her in the most cruel way possible and once this realization came to his mind, there was nothing that would be able to stop him now.

Zuri watched how the sky turned so dark, when the afternoon sun was covered with gloomy clouds and all of a sudden, the day turned into night with thunder shattering the ground as lightning accentuated this eeri situation.

This had happened before, or maybe in this case, something like this had happened again when Chaos wiped out the whole city. And now, she would watch him do the same thing. He spared no one’s life. For malicious actions that they had done to her.

Zuri watched closely, as she took a few steps closer and found the fact that Chaos was not wreaking havoc out of anger, but out of sadness and desperation. His feelings were so strong toward the white wolf, even she could feel it clearly.

And within a few seconds, there was a thunderstorm that was so great, the wind and rain came and swept away everything in its path.

Under this rain that drenched Chaos, Zuri seemed to see him crying, as his tears blended with the rain.

Or maybe she was just seeing things...

========================

Vanesha knew there was something wrong, the scientists were planning on doing something to River, but somehow, she didn’t get to figure out what it was.

It was not usual for them to do something related to River without informing her. After all, it was her, who paid close attention to the girl from time to time, but apparently, they started to minimize their interaction as well.

This was not only Vanesha’s feeling, but the time that she spent together with River had been cut off by half and every time she asked about this, they would say that they just needed more time to observe River.

They didn’t give Vanesha a definite answer about these sudden changes, which made her brows furrowed deeply.

Vanesha needed to know what they were planning to do to River and the only way to get the information that she needed was asking him. She couldn’t think of anyone else who would be more knowledgeable than him.

“What do you think you are doing?!” Sol stood up from his seat when he watched Vanesha jump into his study room in his apartment through the window. He was stunned to say the least.

Sol bolted out of his seat and helped her to get inside, as mad as he was at this young girl, there was no way he would let her fall from the twentieth floor.

She was crazy to even think of climbing here and moreover, Sol couldn’t imagine how she could do it, if she was not well trained

“How can you do that!?” Sol started to barrage her with questions, but Vanesha tiptoed to kiss his lips, until he had to shove her aside, a little bit harder, as she bumped onto the desk.

Sol was surprised, but he didn’t show any regret, while Vanesha grimaced in pain.

“You are so heartless,” Vanesha grumbled and then walked toward the door. “I need ice cubes, or else this will leave ugly bruises,” she said lightly.

But, as she was about to go out of the room, Sol bolted out and slammed the door closed again. He towered over Vanesha and pinned her against the door, which forced her to tilt her head up to look at him.

“You have not yet answered my question.” Sol always hated it when someone walked away from him when he asked a question.

Vanesha looked him dead in the eyes before she answered him. “The organization put hidden cameras in your corridor, so they can monitor who is going in and out of your apartment and now they are trying to estrange me. It says a lot, right?”

The relationship between Vanesha and Sol was a little bit complicated, not only related to this organization alone, but also about the whole thing. It couldn’t be said Vanesha was Sol’s girl, even though she was very blunt about her feelings toward him and they had slept together for countless times, despite the fact that Sol would give her an attitude after that.

Sol let out a few beautiful words after hearing what Vanesha said, which made the girl giggle. She liked it when Sol lost his temper at those people. They were nasty as hell.

Sol had not yet done anything extreme about it thus far. However, he stopped cursing and looked at Vanesha with sharp eyes.

“How can you climb up here?” His tone of voice was very cold and firm. He wouldn’t accept a lie from her, even though this girl had been feeding him anything but the truth most of the time.

“I jumped from one step to another.” Vanesha’s voice insinuated this was not a big deal for her.

Sol narrowed his eyes when he heard this. “You are trained.” As long as he remembered, Vanesha had never gotten a chance to undergo training, at least after he met her.

“I am,” Vanesha admitted.

“What? How?” Sol was dumbfounded to find out this information, but Vanesha was being very calm.

“Will you believe me if I say there will be an anarchy in the city?” Vanesha looked at him closely. “I want you to know this because I don’t want anything bad to happen to you.”

========================

Zuri felt this same feeling again, when her focus overlapped with one another, and this time Chaos’ angry expression and the thunderstorm that was raging around her shifted into his calm one and she was no longer in the middle of the catastrophe that Chaos had caused.

She was in her bed, in Killian’s house, while Chaos cradled her in his arms, as he leaned against the headboard.

He cradled her the way he did to the little white wolf, as he caressed her cheek lightly and stared at her, yet it was hard to say what kind of emotions that Chaos felt right now.

“Are you okay?” Chaos asked her gently.

Zuri narrowed her eyes and bit her lips. She wanted to say something, but she didn’t know how to start it. “Was all of that true? Or were those only images that you created?”

However, instead of answering her question, Chaos pulled her closer, as he hugged her and rested his chin on her shoulder. He looked tired.

“I got you back,” Chaos said finally after a long moment of silence.

Zuri let him stay like this because she needed time to process all of this too, especially when she learned that she was the white wolf. That wouldn’t be hard to guess, she supposed, since her beast was exactly like the wolf that had accompanied Chaos in the past.

“I will always get you back, Blue. No matter what it takes, I will always get you back,” Chaos said softly in her ear and repeated that again and again, as if he was very scared to lose her again.
