Untamed: The Alpha

Chapter 518 - 518 NIKOLAI

518 NIKOLAI

While Skylar was able to make the other people around her to ignore her and changed one’s mind, Norbeat could possess another people body, not only human, even animal, that was his special ability thus he was the least likely to be caught in the border and failed to trespass the border of the East Draghar country.

If Gael could do it safely, there was no reason for Norbeat to fail such task, moreover, this was not the first time for him to infiltrate a place, or a country.

“Aaron,” Chaos said in calm voice, his expression was placid, but there was a mix of emotions behind his dark eyes.

“That’s what I thought,” Knox said. His expression was not different from Chaos, both of them looked similar if it was not for their physical difference.

Aaron had gotten a hold of East Draghar long before they came here and established his influence. It was not a surprise that he managed to manipulate those people in the organization to do his bidding, in order to achieve his goal.

On the other hand, Chaos didn’t have that systematic method and any goal aside from collecting all of his shattered soul, yet Aaron always came in every way to provoke Chaos and bring the darkness inside of him.

In his mind, Chaos should up to his name, he should bring chaos into this realm. It was such a nonsense that he managed to repress such dark desire for calamity for this long.

Aaron was a devil and the twisted one above all that.

“What about Skylar and Gael?” Zuri asked, broke the silence that ensued between them. If Norbeat was caught in the border, the same thing could happen to the two of them.

.....

“I can’t say for sure,” Knox replied and then shifted his attention back to Chaos, his voice was so calm when he spoke, but there was a hint of aggravation in his tone. “Aaron has created this situation, where you are not only facing him, but he makes the whole realm to turn against you.”

Everyone knew Chaos and at this point, whether it was supernatural creature or human being, they knew that Chaos was the epitome of the devil that could bring destruction, calamity to their realm, which had happened a few times in the past.

Those even alone was enough for people to fear him, but at the same time, they had this desire to get rid of him and Aaron could provide that. He was a master of manipulation.

Thankfully, because Chaos possessed the same ability like Skylar, he could walk around freely, without anyone paid much attention to him or realized who he was, yet with Aaron on the picture, things wouldn’t go smoothly.

Chaos couldn’t go directly to Killian because of the protection that surrounded the place prevented him from doing so and it was most likely Aaron’s doing.

Right at that time, when Zuri was immersed in her own thought, while listening to the conversation between Knox and Chaos, her body stiffened, as she sensed it first before she could see him.

Chaos was the first, who noticed her surprise expression and followed her line of sight. She stared at the main entrance, as if she were waiting for someone to walk in.

And not long after that, a young man entered this place, which made Zuri held her breath. It was Nikolai.

He looked more mature than the last time they met, his face was hardened, showing the hardship that he had to endure in order to survive in this world and based from the information that they got, he rose to be the high rank member of the organization, he was a commander of three thousand men and Sol’s right hand man.

Zuri had been wondering what she would do if they met again. It was so ridiculous to say that they were friend. They were childhood friend and close one at that time, even when the last time they met, they still could call each other as friend.

However, the situation was different now, their circumstance made it ridiculous to name their relationship as ‘friend.’

“That’s Nikolai, your childhood friend, right?” Knox nodded at Nikolai, who seemed didn’t even notice they were here. He joined with his friend and talked lightly with them, as he occasionally would smile and looked so carefree.

“Yeah,” Zuri replied without any enthusiasm. It was only Chaos that knew he was his shattered soul, but Knox had a feeling for that. After all, he had chased down Chaos’s shattered soul for centuries.

“He is Chaos’s shattered soul, right?” Though Knox was asking, but it sounded like a statement in Zuri’s ears, as his eyes fixed on her to see her reaction when he blurted out the words.

Even now, Knox still believed that Eros was Chaos’s shattered soul, though Zuri kept denying it and now his guess was right again.

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

Emily looked restless when she had to accompanied Eros again to meet with Xerxes, she wanted to come inside with him, but Eros would say that he needed her to be onlook, just in case someone would come.

But, Emily thought it was highly unlikely someone would come to this part of the pack and moreover, she felt like Eros only said that for her to stay away from the conversation that he would have with Xerxes.

Emily closed her eyes, she was trying to calm herself down, but her mind couldn’t stop thinking what Eros conversed with Xerxes? Was it about Zuri again? What else Eros wanted to know about that white beast?

Emily felt bitter to even think this way, she thought everything would go to the way it was once they went back to the pack, but it didn’t seem like that…

Right at that time, she heard someone approaching and she was too late to notice it.
