Untamed: The Alpha

329 SHE STABBED HIM

Gael looked at his phone once again before he ordered all of his people to move, since he didn’t get any update from Vanesha. She should have reported about the current situation in the organization’s base to him five minutes ago, but she didn’t do it.

This was their deal, if she failed to give him a report for more than five minutes, it meant something happened to Vanesha and Gael should proceed according to what he thought necessary.

Gael could withdraw, but he chose to go all out. He had promised Lise to bring their daughter back and he would keep that promise. There was no going back for him.

They were only fifteen minutes away from the training base, where they would depart and once Gael got close, he could see what was the problem that Vanesha had to face, which resulted in her not being able to give any report.

A large area of the ground was covered by lava, the scorching sun above their heads only heated this place further. The cracked ground kept hissing viciously, as it kept spewing lava.

Gael was familiar with this. This was his power, something that was long gone from him and this familiarity brought back the feeling when he was able to control fire.

“I can see Vanesha there with another girl.” Nathen came closer to Gael, while pointing out in the distance.

“That is not another girl. That is River,” Gael corrected him. He could feel it. That was his little girl. She inherited his power.

“What are you doing?! Stop it! You will catch fire!” Nathen tried to stop Gael when he was about to take a step onto the lava, yet he refused to back down.

.....

“No.” Gael had his eyes fixed on his daughter.

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

Chaos took a step closer and then the next step and the next, once he realized this girl’s existence, until he stood right in front of Zuri, staring down at her with his red eyes.

She felt the air leave her lungs when Chaos looked at her like that, his expression didn’t show any emotions and she couldn’t say whether he recognized her or not.

Zuri wetted her dry lips, she was trying to talk again, but before she could do that, Chaos had wrapped his hand around her throat, practically constricting her airway, choking her.

Of course, this scared Zuri to say the least, her claws elongated from the tips of her fingers, as she tried to claw at his hand, but there was nothing she could do.

No matter how deep she stabbed him with her sharp claws, the wounds would heal in a matter of seconds while his grip around her neck only tightened even further.

Chaos could just snap her neck right there and then, but somehow, he didn’t do it immediately, yet at the same time, this was a torture for Zuri, as she was not able to breath and lose her footing. She was mortified.

Zuri had experienced death once before and this was close to that. Her instinct told her to keep fighting back, yet she couldn’t force herself to shift into her beast, since she couldn’t concentrate and lacked strength.

Her face had turned red and her claws had disappeared, as she couldn’t persevere any longer. She started seeing black dots in her vision, as she ran out of air and her lungs felt like they were going to explode.

That was the time when she felt it.

The very moment something appeared in her hand suddenly, it felt cold and slim, it had a rough edge to it, as she grabbed it.

Zuri knew what it was. Even without looking at it, she could feel the weight of the sword in her hand. The black sword that Chaos handed her, to kill him once he went out of control.

Once he endangered her life. Once he forgot about her.

Because the main reason for Chaos to give Zuri the sword was for her to protect herself against him.

Chaos had thought about this carefully. He didn’t want to be away from her, he couldn’t. He had left her for so long and when he finally found her again, she was broken and hated him. He couldn’t go through her hatred anymore.

Chaos knew it was selfish of him to put Zuri’s life in danger by forcing himself to be with her, but on the other hand, he let her have something lethal to him. Something that could stop him, something that could kill him...

He put such power in her hands.

“Stab him, Blue, or he will be the one who kills you.” Hades appeared in Zuri’s peripheral sight, he crossed his arms in front of his chest, not seeming to have any intention to help Zuri at all. “That’s what he told you, right?”

Zuri saw the devil standing a few meters away from her, smiling smugly, as if he was watching an interesting act from his favorite movie.

Yet, Zuri couldn’t think about him right now, when her consciousness started to leave her. However, she still could feel the hilt of the sword in her hand clearly. The coldness of it seemed to keep her mind awake.

Would this stop Chaos? Would this kill him? Was this worth it?

But, before Zuri could find the answer for that and before she could think what she should do, her hand had moved on its own. This was her survival instinct, as she was in a lot of pain and the only profound thing in her mind was to find a way to survive this...

And the next thing she knew, the tight grip around her neck had loosened, as she stabbed him.

Zuri fell to the ground, coughing profusely, as she shook her head to clear her head. She was on the verge of losing her consciousness, yet her eyes grew wide when she saw Chaos before her eyes, with the black sword lodged deep in his chest.
