Untamed: The Alpha

137 BLOODY NIGHT (3)

Emmet walked closer to the beast and even though he knew he could handle the injured beast on his own, the look that she gave him was deadly... she stared daggers at him and by all means, that alone left Emmet shuddering. He could feel the cold creeping down his spine only by the way she looked at him through her dark hazel eyes.

However, since Emmet was under the eyes of the members of his pack and he would be an Alpha one day, he wouldn’t let his fears ruin this moment for him and let them picture him as a coward, just like his brother.

He tightened his grip on the thing that his father gave to him and took one step at a time until he was close enough to the white beast.

“Hey, Zuri... I told you to not run away from me, remember?” He chatted with her to calm down the tension in the air, because that was how he worked in all the situations until now. “I just want you to know that you brought this to yourself.”

Emmet glanced at the head of Mateo, which was just a few meters away from them, as he lowered himself to be on the same eye level as her.

They had been taught about how to fight a shifter in their human form, while the opponent was in their beast form. Apparently, tonight was the time to apply it in real action.

Emmet composed himself and reciprocated Blue’s glare, as he moved very fast to capture her front leg.

The white beast snapped and turned her body around to bite Emmet’s hand, but he had held her neck and tackled her to the ground, and very swiftly, he put a bracelet on her front leg.

After he was sure that he heard the clicking sound, which meant it had been secured, Emmet backed away and watched in shock how the white beast was forced to shift back into her human form.

.....

“What the hell...” he mumbled under his breath, even all the guards around him couldn’t believe what they were seeing.

It was not that they didn’t know about the bracelet, since they had fought The Hound countless times and they would use the same bracelet to force them to shift back into their human form, so it would be easier and less dangerous for them to capture the supernatural creatures, especially the shifters.

However, to know that their Alpha possessed a similar thing was quite a revelation for them. Where did he get that kind of thing?

Among the stupefied guards and beasts, it was only Alpha Xerxes, who seemed to enjoy the scene before his eyes.

The white beast shifted back into her human form and left Blue, stranded in the middle of this clearing, naked and since her hair was not long enough to cover her body, it left her very vulnerable. It was such a humiliation for her.

She gritted her teeth and glared at anyone who was staring at her, gawking at her nakedness, but she couldn’t shift back into her beast form. The bracelet didn’t allow her to do it. She felt her beast was out of her reach, as it stayed deep within her, but disconnected to her somehow.

It was a helpless feeling...

No one moved from where they were and the atmosphere turned very heavy, as the girl in white hair, with her body littered with wounds was so exposed for them to see.

Blue was trembling, her emotions were all over the place, she didn’t know what to do or what would happen. And at that moment, she hoped Chaos had never brought her back to life if he was going to leave her alone in this cruel world.

He should have let her die.

He should have let her go...

Blue hated him for that reason. She hated him because she was left alone, she hated herself because no matter how hard the training that she had undergone and no matter how strong she wanted to be, she was only running in circles.

She was still the helpless girl, who had caused the death of the people around her. She still couldn’t protect herself, let alone anyone.

The thought to end her life crossed her mind when someone walked toward her and draped a coat over her body.

Blue didn’t give any reaction when she felt someone approach her, since there was nothing she could do in her current state.

However, when she felt the warm cloak that covered her nakedness, she lifted her head and saw Liam, he was trying to make the cloak cover most of her skin and helped her to wear it.

There were three gruesome claw marks on his face that were still bleeding, but apparently, they started to heal.

“You need to stand up, Zuri,” he said in a low voice, so it was only the two of them who could hear him. “You can’t be like this. Don’t let them insult you like this.”

Liam held her hand and helped her to stand up. He looked her right in the eyes and that was the only thing that made Blue move her body and lift her chin up.

The only thing that connected her from her suicidal thought and the reality. She gritted her teeth and stood up.

One step at a time. One step at a time.

Mateo always said that to her when she felt down and he always knew when she felt like she was on the brink of the darkest time of her life.

She needed to walk away from here, so she needed to take one step after another. And that was what she did with the help of Liam, who was supporting her.

“Great!” Alpha Xerxes clapped his hands, looking all cheerful. “Bring her to the river! The night is still young. It is not too late to have the ceremony.” He beamed with joy.
