Untamed: The Alpha

157 YES, I KILLED HIM

Zuri grabbed a wolf statue that was a wall display in this room, a black wolf that symbolized this pack, she hated it, both shifters and humans alike, or any other creature.

And then it happened so fast when Zuri grabbed the statue and smashed it on Adel’s head. The old woman fell to the floor with a shriek. She could feel blood spurting out of her wounded head, as she tried to stop the bleeding by pressing her palms on it, but it was useless.

“Please, Zuri... please...” Adel cried when she watched how emotionless those hazel eyes were. Somehow, she knew that she wouldn’t be able to escape from this. “Zuri, please... give me a second chance...”

However, the onlace appeared in her hand crushed Adel’s hopes as Zuri thrust the pointed end of it into Adel’s throat, making her gag on her own blood.

“I don’t give such a thing. You betrayed me.” Her voice rang very coldly when she watched how Adel’s pupils dilated and then life left her body.

She deserved it.

Zuri kept telling herself. It was not her, who had hurt her first. She asked for this and what she had done was right. It was the only right thing to do. She would never let anyone hurt her again.

And when she withdrew her onlace, she watched more fresh blood oozing out from the hole in her throat.

If it was eight years ago, she would have felt bad when someone died in her hands. She even felt bad for those people, who died because she told Chaos they have a piece of his shattered soul, but now...

.....

Zuri was not sure what she felt right now. It felt so easy to kill someone and watch them suffer before her eyes, but the calmness that she felt shook her conscience. Did she become a monster?

“Zuri!”

Zuri leapt to her feet when she heard her name being called and someone slammed the door open behind her, her onlace at the ready.

“Put it down, I don’t come here to hurt you,” Liam said hastily, but he didn’t dare to step closer to the girl. He remembered the last time he did that and she clawed his face mercilessly.

Coward.

That was the first word that came to Zuri’s mind when she saw fear in Liam’s eyes.

A coward just like his brother.

“Put it down, okay,” Liam spoke again, this time his tone was a little bit gentle, but then he shook his head when he saw her not budging at all. “All right, you don’t need to do that, but make sure to not swing them against me. Now, follow me.”

“Why should I?” Zuri asked in a cold tone, her expression was devoid of any emotions.

“Because the whole pack is looking for you now!” he said in a rush. “They will kill you once they see you.”

“Then I will take down as many people as I can with me.” Zuri was not joking about this.

Liam shook his head. “You will fight the whole pack! Don’t you understand?” he glared at the bracelet on Zuri’s wrist and then added. “You can’t shift as well, how do you plan to take them down?”

Zuri followed Liam’s line of sight, she realized that. She was aware of the bracelet. She wouldn’t be able to fight them with this shackling her beast.

On the other hand, Liam sighed deeply when he watched how understanding dawned on her and he walked closer to the girl, carefully, he was on high alert when he did that.

“Come with me, I will help you to escape this place,” Liam said, he braced himself when he stretched out his hand. There was a huge possibility that Zuri would cut his arm without any hesitation, but this was not the time to worry about that when he had to get her trust.

For a moment, Zuri just stood there, staring at Liam’s hand. She had this urge to kill him, but thankfully, she was not blinded with impulsiveness.

“Show me the way,” Zuri said, as she walked past him because she didn’t want to touch him, let alone taking his hand. The thought of making physical contact with another person alone had made her sick.

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

“Take this with you,” Liam said, as he handed a backpack to her along with a car key. “It should be able to support you for at least two months.”

There was a little cash inside the backpack and a few clothes and pants for her to change, she could crash in some cheap hotel before she would be able to find the organization that Mateo told her about before when he helped her to escape.

“Make sure to find the organization before you run out of the money,” Liam reminded her again and again about this, because Zuri didn’t look like she was about to seek out any help out there. “You need to get rid of the bracelet. You know how dangerous it is for you to be spotted by the members of The Hound with that bracelet.”

Zuri snatched the car key and the backpack, and tossed it into the car, but said nothing as a reply to Liam’s suggestion.

“Zuri, I hope you don’t act recklessly,” Liam said. He held Zuri’s hand when she was about to enter the car, but the girl immediately swatted his hand away and glared viciously at him. “I am sorry for what you have been through,” Liam apologized sincerely.

For a moment, he thought Zuri would ignore him, but then she spoke in a cold tone. “I will kill anyone who tries to follow me.”

Liam then nodded. “Understood.” But then he immediately asked the question. “Did you really kill my brother?”

“Yes. I killed him.” Zuri didn’t even think twice when she replied and then shoved Liam away from the car door as she slammed the door shut and started the engine.
