Untamed: The Alpha

145 THE MARK SUITS YOU

“Why do you put them in the same room together?” One of the scientists asked his friend, who was sitting next to him, while the two of them were observing the interaction between the two creatures before their eyes.

“We need to know what kind of power that girl has, because we are still unable to figure out what kind of creature she is,” he replied curtly.

Since they knew that the girl was a supernatural creature, they tried to find out what her ability was, but as it turned out, even after weeks of close observation, they couldn’t find out anything.

Her ability was still a mystery.

“So, you put them in the same room in order for them to fight against each other?” The first man frowned and then watched the two of them again through the special glass, which looked like a wall from inside the room, but actually it was a glass, through which they could see the two creatures that were trapped very clearly. “I think they make good friends with each other.”

“Not yet,” the second man mumbled to himself and then did something on his computer.

“Did you have the permission to do this?” He asked his fellow scientist with concern in his voice. It would be a mess if they didn’t get the permission that they needed, after all, they could lose their precious creatures.

The man didn’t answer his question and continued to do something to his computer until something happened to the little boy inside.

“What the fcuk are you doing?!”

.....

Inside the room, the little boy shuddered his body, he started to growl at the little girl in front of him, who was chatting with him until a second before.

He could feel it, something was wrong with his body and he knew a bad thing would happen, thus he took a few steps back, away from the little girl named River.

“Hm?” River took a step forward when Eros backed away. “What happened?” she asked him with a frown. “Did I say something wrong? Why are you growling at me?”

Eros shook his head so he could clear his mind when his animal instinct took over his consciousness. He looked at the bracelet that wrapped around his wrist in anger, since he knew that those people were forcing him to shift.

They always put him through something horrible and could control him to shift between his human form and his beast form rapidly as they liked.

“Are you hurt?” River came closer to him and was about to touch him, but Eros swatted her hand and without him knowing it, he had half shifted into his beast and left a deep scratch on the back of her hand. “What are you doing!?” River shrieked as blood dripped down from her injured hand. “You hurt me!”

Eros growled even louder to see that and then started to stumble across the room, where he sniffed the air and stopped in front of another side of the wall and glared viciously, as if he knew that the two scientists were behind it.

He pounded his small fists against the wall and roared in anger. He couldn’t say what he wanted, but it was clear enough that he asked them to stop whatever they were doing now, while behind him, River was crying because of the pain that he caused.

“You need to stop this, or you will hurt the two of them,” the man warned his fellow scientist, as he backed away to see how close Eros was. It was almost like there was no barrier between them.

“No, we need to see what that girl can do, if she can’t protect herself and there is nothing she can do except being a non- human being, then we don’t need to waste our time on her.” And then, he put more pressure on Eros to force him to shift fully into his lycan form.

Eros’s deep blue eyes turned pitch black, as he roared and shifted into his lycan form.

“Let’s see what she can do...”

“We will get into trouble...” the man mumbled.

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

Zuri entered the room where Alpha Xerxes was waiting for her, according to what Emmett told her.

In the end, she managed to kick Emmet out of the room and had her privacy to get into a proper dress before she met Alpha Xerxes.

Zuri put on a cold expression as she entered the room and walked straight to the chair across from the Alpha, next to Emmet.

“What business?” she asked directly.

“Zuri...” Alpha Xerxes sighed her name and this made her want to vomit. She hated it when he mentioned her name affectionately with that filthy mouth of his. “Can I have a hug? You are part of my family now.”

Emmet rolled his eyes, he was a hundred percent sure that this girl wouldn’t do that, therefore when Zuri stood up and walked toward his father and gave him a quick hug, he was surprised and had the thought she would kill his father by being so close to him.

But, that thought also was not right, because after that brief hug, she returned to her seat and sat there calmly.

What is she up to? Emmet stared at Zuri in confusion. He knew that she was up to no good, but what horrible plan was in her mind, which allowed her to act so calm in front of the man that had ruined her life?

On the other hand, it was not only Emmet, who was shocked, but also Alpha Xerxes, but he regained his composure faster than his son.

“What business?” Zuri repeated her question.

“First, I want to congratulate you on your mating ceremony,” he said cheerfully and then tilted his head to look at Zuri’s neck. “And I should say that I like the mark on your neck. It suits you.”
