Untamed: The Alpha

143 A WIDOW

“Actually, there was a storm that lasted for three days after the mating ceremony.” Liam told Zuri as he closed the curtain, so the girl could stop staring at the gloomy sky, it was so depressing to say the least.

“A storm,” Zuri repeated the words.

Liam was not sure whether it was a simple confirmation, or she was asking a question. “Yes, a storm that lasted for three days straight.”

Liam dropped the tray on her lap and encouraged her to eat some, as he could see that she was still in so much pain, yet she sucked it all.

“You need to eat.”

“I don’t feel like eating.”

Liam knew that would be her answer, but then he didn’t give in. “At least do it as a form of apology to me.”

Zuri raised her head and shot him a look, as if she was saying; why should I? Probably, on a normal day, she would frown as well.

“You strangled me and then clawed me, remember?” Liam leaned in and then showed the few faint scars near his eyes, which were not able to fully recover, apparently, the wound was too deep and he almost lost his sight, had Zuri clawed his eyes.

.....

However, on the other hand, Zuri didn’t seem to feel bad about that at all. “Serves you right,” she said quietly and then took the warm milk from the tray.

Liam sighed and then silently, he watched how the girl in front of him ate her food, though it almost looked like she was stuffing her face with that instead of chewing them.

But then, it was better than her not wanting to eat at all.

“Zuri...” Liam called her name. He took a quick glimpse at the bandage on her neck, where Emmet had marked her. “How are you feeling?”

“Fantastic.” Her expression was completely the opposite of what she was saying.

“Is there anything I can do to help you?”

“Of course.”

“Tell me, I will see if I can do that.” Liam just wanted Blue to feel slightly better with all of this chaos that came to her continually.

Zuri put down her cutleries and then for the first time looked Liam right in the eyes. “Kill your father and brother and then burn this pack. I will be happy if you can do that for me.”

“Zuri, that’s not how it works...” Liam was startled to see the hostility in her bright hazel eyes. She looked more alive than she was in the past few days.

Zuri said nothing to him, but that was exactly what she would do, but for now, Liam was right, she needed all the energy that she could get to stay alive.

Right at the heat of moment, Emmet walked into the room and his brows shot up when he saw Liam was there.

“Can I have alone time with my mate?” He asked condescendingly, he emphasized the words ‘my mate’, but the tone that he used made it sound like it was a curse on his tongue.

Liam looked at Zuri and then stood up from the edge of the bed, as he walked out of the room without saying anything.

A coward. Zuri labeled him as she watched how his back disappeared behind the door. A coward, but had the audacity to offer help to her.

Zuri felt her heart was so black, so dark that she hated everything that she saw.

“Can you stop eating? We need to talk.”

However, obeying Emmet’s order was the last thing that Zuri would do. She picked up her cutleries again and started eating. She even slowed down and enjoyed every second of it.

Seeing how Zuri didn’t respond to him, Emmet lashed out at her. He felt she didn’t respect him enough to listen to him.

“I AM YOUR MATE, GET RID OF THAT STUPID FOOD!” he blew his top, but then he was startled when something whoosed near his cheek and left a deep cut on the tip of his ear.

“Quiet.” it was a simple word that came from Zuri, as she glared at him. Her gaze looked deadly.

Apparently, in her irritation for being yelled at, Zuri had thrown her knife at Emmet, but intentionally missed her aim, since she wouldn’t want to have a bleeding grown up man in the room, when she was eating.

“You!” Emmet’s entire body was shaking with anger, his eyes narrowed dangerously, but he knew better than to come closer to her. Whether she was in her good condition or not, there was something about her that terrified him. “We need to talk!”

Zuri ignored that request and continued eating.

Another coward. Zuri made a mental note. She knew that Emmet wouldn’t have the balls to come to her and cause something. She was well aware how horrifying she looked right now.

Only when ten minutes had passed, did Zuri put down her cutleries again, which she only used to mess up with her food and lifted her head to face Emmet, who was fuming mad.

A coward indeed.

“What do you want?” Blue asked in a cold tone, as her face was devoid from any emotion.

“Alpha Xerxes called for us. My father wants to meet you and me,” he said through gritted teeth.

Zuri nodded, as a sign of her understanding and then got off the bed, while she waved her hand at him. “You can go now, I will change my dress.”

Emmet was slightly taken aback because of how calm the girl was. She didn’t even look bothered about meeting his father. He thought there would be a huge argument and little drama to get her out of the bed.

However, she received it casually.

“Get out.” Zuri stared at him dead in the eyes, because Emmet didn’t move from his position.

“Don’t give me orders, I am the future Alpha of this pack,” Emmet said grimly.

“Get out of here or I will be a widow in the next five minutes.”
