Untamed: The Alpha

336 LONG TIME NO SEE, BLUE

River looked at Gael closely. The man looked handsome and very emotional when he introduced himself to her earlier. He kept staring at her and this made her a little bit nervous. “You are really my father?”

“Yes,” Gael replied immediately, and looked at her gently. How old was she right now? She must be fourteen now.

Fourteen years had passed, fourteen years of continuous failures because he couldn’t get his daughter back sooner. He had missed her first step, her first words, her first everything.

Gael felt he had failed as a father to his daughter.

On the other hand, River didn’t seem too pleased when she heard that. Her nose scrunched up. “If you really are my father, why didn’t you come to save me? They hurt me...” She remembered all the things that those people had done to her, to the smallest detail, from the moment they separated her from her mother. “They hurt me, but you did not come.”

River didn’t cry, but the look of disappointment in her eyes was enough to cut a deep wound in Gael’s heart. He had never wished for his daughter to get hurt.

“River, I am sorry for coming late, I am sorry for what you have gone through. I have tried my best to get you sooner, but I think I am still not quick enough.” Gael extended his hand to touch her, but she flinched, which made Gael stop in his tracks. He didn’t want to make his daughter uncomfortable.

Right at that time, the car stopped, as they arrived at the hideout.

One of Gael’s men, opened the car door, but River became defensive when he tried to take Vanesha away from her in the next second.

.....

“Don’t touch her!” River snapped at him, there was fire on the tips of her fingers when she said that, as she growled loudly at the man.

The man that was with Gael was one of the hellbound shifters. They were used to being fiercer and more ferocious than any other shifter, as they tended to use their beast’s instinct rather than their human side.

Therefore, when the man heard River snap at him, he took it as an aggression and he was ready to attack.

Fortunately, Gael was there. He glared at the man and stopped this dispute before it grew bigger than it was supposed to be.

“That’s enough!” Gael roared loudly and sharply. He got down from the car and walked toward River’s side and then tapped his shoulder. “Back down.”

The man looked like he wanted to continue this fight, but he respected Gael enough to leave it at that. But he couldn’t help growling and grumbling as he walked away.

“Let me take her, we need to check on her wound, or else she will be in great trouble.” Seeing what happened earlier, Gael thought he couldn’t let River be so close to the hellbounds, both parties didn’t know any better.

“She will be fine. My wounds heal quite fast.” River thought Vanesha and the rest of those people had the same healing ability as her. Though her healing ability was not as efficient as that of a shifter, it was still definitely more impressive than a human’s.

“No, River. She is not getting better, her condition is getting worse now. She is not like us.” Gael could see the confusion in her eyes, as she listened to his explanation and her beautiful eyes grew wider with shock. “That’s why we need to get her some help, or else her life will be in danger.”

River looked at Vanesha and then her father.

“We will get her some help and then we can go see your mother, okay?”

“Mom?”

“Yes.” Gael tried to reach out his hand toward River once more, but she evaded it again. “Yes, let’s see your mother. She will be very happy to see you.”

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

Zuri could hear it, the sound of their footsteps that were getting closer and closer, but she couldn’t leave Chaos alone here, yet she didn’t have the strength to carry him either. Bluntly saying, he was more than twice her weight.

These people’s focus must be on the dragon behind her, which still couldn’t move from its place, but it would be a big issue if they found the two of them too.

It was impossible for any human to stay so close to the dragon. At first, they would probably not recognize Chaos and Zuri, but then they would realize it sooner or later.

Zuri held Chaos tighter in her arms, she was running out of ideas that could save both of them. She met with a dead end, until she heard something...

Zuri heard it before she saw them.

The sound of wind and then low growls of wolves. Nothing was ferocious about this, they were just like howls that were calling to her own beast. A howl that was so allusive, yet she couldn’t understand what that meant.

Zuri raised her head and before her eyes, was a beautiful woman, in her beautiful white dress and a crown on her head, while her white hair cascaded down her shoulders.

She looked very beautiful. Even the word beautiful was an understatement to describe how breathtaking she looked.

Her skin was radiant, as if it glowed from inside of her. The light that emanated from her body was so warm, it gave comfort.

And beside this alluring woman, were two white wolves, standing on guard. Zuri deduced that the howls from earlier were their doing, the howls that called to her.

But from what Zuri saw and all the glory that she witnessed, there was only one question in her mind right now; who was she?

Zuri tried to smell her scent, yet she couldn’t catch anything, except the smell of burning ground, combustion and ashes.

“Long time no see, Blue?” The woman’s voice was very enchanting, and she looked at her gently. “Or should I call you Zuri now?”
