Untamed: The Alpha

Chapter 447

447 WHY DON’T YOU KILL THEM ALL?

Knox was sure that he didn’t want to go with Zuri anywhere, but because this problem involved Chaos and everything about that man would only give you the worst thing possible, he needed to help her to minimize it.

“Stop making that expression, you make my stomach upset.” Zuri was annoyed to see his expression and this made her bad mood.

“Make it fast,” Knox grunted. He didn’t order anything because he wanted to get out from here as soon as possible, he had his own problem to be fixed too.

July...

He needed to know where she sent the little girl away, because she was not any ordinary girl or shattered soul that they used to face, but there was something in her that was unusual and had the potential to create another big problem, which they didn’t need.

“Do you think I can find it with only a snap of my finger?” Zuri snapped her finger to make her point. She was glad that Knox took the initiative to help her, especially when her body was being thrown away by Chaos’s power, which exploded.

Zuri’s already injured body would suffer more injuries if it was not for Knox, who protected her.

Knox said it was because Chaos was not stable, that’s why it happened, which meant, Chaos was trying to fight himself in that state. That was dangerous if that kept happening.

“You don’t think that way, right?” Zuri looked at Knox in annoyance, as she realized that he thought that way of her.

.....

“Why can’t?” Knox took Zuri’s drink and then chugged it down, which made the girl in front of him was speechless. “You are the one with that power,” he voiced out what he was thinking.

“My power to recognize Chaos’s shattered soul doesn’t work that way,” Zuri said begrudgingly because he finished her drink, as she could only stare at her empty glass. “I need to be close enough with them to be able to smell their scent.”

Knox sighed, he then stood up. “In that case, why are we sitting here?” he looked at Zuri disapprovingly, they had been in this café for twenty minutes, which they could use to roam around and find that damn shattered soul.

“Because I am tired, can’t you see? I am still recovering from the earlier injuries.” Zuri raised her hand that was still bruises and yes, there were still wound that had not yet healed. “I can’t catch up with your stamina, okay.”

It wouldn’t be Knox if he actually listened to Zuri’s complain, because the next thing that he said was; “Get up, we have wasted so many times here.”

“What?” Zuri gritted her teeth, she closed her eyes so she wouldn’t flip at him.

“Do you want to see Chaos’s condition getting worst?” Knox used this because he knew that Zuri wouldn’t have any words to retort this fact. “Get up, we need to find the shattered soul.”

Begrudgingly, Zuri got up and then followed Knox out of the café, after he left the money to pay for her drink.

“Now, concentrate and sniff the scent.” Knox walked slowly on the roadside with Zuri was next to him.

“Why I feel like you are ordering a dog to sniff something?” Zuri was not pleased with the way Knox was talking to her. This man was getting more and more annoying, ever time she spent with him.

“That’s what you do, right?” Knox glanced at her, as if she was saying something ridiculous. “Did I say it wrongly?”

Zuri opened her mouth, but then shut it down, she had learned how to be patient and didn’t talk carelessly, to ignore something that would only upset her and didn’t bring any benefit, but it was hard to apply it whenever she talked with Knox.

How could Chaos’s shattered soul could be this annoying? She wondered if he really part of Chaos, probably he was the annoying part of him...?

“Whatever,” Zuri said curtly, as she focused all of her attention to various abundant scent in the air, but she couldn’t catch anything.

She didn’t feel it...

“Where did you find the shattered soul before?” Zuri asked, even though there was low possibility a shattered soul would be in the same place.

“There.” Knox nodded to a building in front of them, it was a very shabby house with so many men walked in and out from there.

Definitely, this was not the place that a young woman like Zuri would visit, but she walked over to that house, trying to see if she could catch something.

Meanwhile, Knox followed behind her, not exactly behind her, because he didn’t feel the need to protect her, since the worst case scenario would be her, being attacked by human.

Zuri was a warrior back in her days with the shadow moon pack, therefore Knox didn’t think two or three men would be able to outdo her.

However, it was not Zuri, who was being approached by the man from the building, but it was Knox, as one of them recognized him.

“You are the person, who talked to Jaden the last time, right? Where is he?” There were three men, who approached Knox and this piqued Zuri’s interest, as she stopped looking for the shattered soul and paid more attention to them. “Where is he? We have not seen him, since yesterday!”

Knox frowned, as this man was pretty aggressive and he knew what made him like that, because he could see a gun peaked from his holster on his hips.

“He is gone,” Knox said casually.

Usually, those people, whose soul had been taken by Chaos would be forgotten by the people around them, so there were not many issue when Chaos took his soul back.

However, there was this case also, where people around them still remembered the shattered soul. It was not clear what the reason of it.

“Do you need help?” Zuri asked, she was standing a few meters away from them, tilting her head, as if she was only a normal, harmless young woman.

Seeing her like this, no one would believe that she had killed so many people, human and supernatural creatures alike though she was only on her twenty three years of life.

“Can you find it there?” Knox asked her, he didn’t care about the three men, who was staring dagger at him, as he wanted to finish this task soon, so they could go back and he could talk to July.

It was also tiring to have a walk with Zuri, since they did not get along great. Knox couldn’t help but thinking, probably he got the the part of his soul where Chaos disliked this girl...

“No.” Zuri shook her head and then walked over to them. “There is nothing there. We need to look in another place.”

However, the three men were pissed because they were being ignored. How could they talk so casually to each other, as if it was only them, when they were talking to this man?

“HEY, I AM TALKING TO YOU!” the first man shouted at Knox, his face was red because he was drunk, while the pungent smell of alcohol came very strong from his breath.

“Quiet,” Knox said, glaring at the man and that actually worked, the man opened his mouth, shouting on top of his lungs, but there was no sound came out of his opened mouth, which made them surprised.

They were shocked, especially that specific man. He was trying to say something, but there was no sound...

He was quiet.

“What the hell!? What the hell you are doing to him?!” the other man freaked out, while the third man had run away from them, as he rushed toward the building and almost knocked Zuri over, if it was not for her swift movement to avoid him.

Zuri raised her brows to see this reaction and then smirked.

However, the silenced man was trying to fight Knox, he threw a punch and two to Knox’s face, which easily evaded, while the other guy drew his gun and pointed at him.

“You are a supernatural creature! What you have done to him!?” His hands were shaking, as he pointed the gun to Knox.

Meanwhile, as the showed went down, from inside the building, there were several men came out, it seemed the man, who rushed into the building called for back up.

“Great.” Zuri clicked her tongue. “I remember you said to be lowkey.”

Knox narrowed his eyes, he didn’t like this too, he considered to kill them all, but they were in the city, though there were not many people passed this street at night like this, but he didn’t want to waste his power in this unnecessary fight either.

“What do you plan now?” Zuri asked, as she approached Knox, while the man, who was holding the gun pointed that thing to her now.

“Stop there!” he said, almost stammering because he could see there was no fear in both of these supernatural creatures’s eyes. “They are supernatural creatures!” he informed the other men.

“We need to get them and get money from the capital city!” one of the men shouted. “Take them alive! Be careful!”

The situation was escalated really fast and without Zuri and Knox knowing, they were already surrounded, as around twenty men circled them with their gun pointed at their head.

“Why don’t you kill them all to save our time?” Zuri said, she was annoyed by this situation.
