Untamed: The Alpha

483 BLARRING SOUND

“I will be the alpha of the shadow moon pack.” The decision was final. He only needed one more solid reason to do it.

Eros had been going back and forth with this issue, but now he knew there was no going back after this. The only way for him to be able to live without anyone ordered him was to be the person in the highest position of the pack.

It was not his nature to get order from other. Liam should have well aware about this. He was a lycan after all, his desire to be dominant wouldn’t wane just because he had been pressed down for such a long time.

It was dangerous to keep a lycan close to you, because if you thought you could put leash around their neck, then you are completely wrong.

“You don’t need to take my revenge.” Zuri took a step back, because she wanted to create distance between them, only then she could thing clearly and be herself, since it was so dangerous to be with your mate.

And the pull of the mate bond could make them tripped onto another unnecessary trouble.

Eros shook his head. “I don’t take your revenge, I need more motivation to do so. This is my life that I put on the line.” Eros took another step back, he knew what Zuri meant when she backed out, he also needed to keep his mind straight now. “Until that time, let’s keep thing this way between us.”

Zuri didn’t give any response for that immediately, but then she shrugged her shoulder nonchalantly. She felt a little bit better after she put a distance between them. It helped her to see this problem clearer.

“If that what you want, I don’t have anything to say about it.” Zuri stared at the empty corridor. There was no one there except the two of them. “I hope no one knows about this. I don’t want to create unnecessary trouble.”

.....

“I agree with you,” Eros replied. “There is no need for us to meet in the near future. Take care of yourself.”

They wouldn’t cross path intentionally because they had different goal, at least that was what Eros thought, while Zuri knew more than him that he was not only her mate, but he was Chaos’s shattered soul.

If he was Chaos’s shattered soul that would tend to create predicament, she wondered what kind of trouble that he would make in the shadow moon pack.

Zuri would love to hear one or two news about it, but on the other hand, she needed to cut contact with him completely. They couldn’t meet again after this, unless the time when Zuri was ready to tell Chaos about Eros.

Probably, the time when she rejected him would be the great time for her to let Chaos finished him, since she was already in pain because of the broken mate bond, why not added more by losing a mate too, right?

Zuri stared at the fine man in front of her and smirked. “You grow taller.”

Eros raised his brows, but then he laughed at that comment. He didn’t know whether this feeling came from the mate bond between them, or this was his genuine feeling, but he found her comment was funny.

“Thank you, but I don’t recall that I was very short when we met for the first time, for you to comment like that.” Eros leaned his back against the column across from her. The tension between them had shimmered down a little bit and it was easier to talk this way.

They should end this conversation and walked away from one another, so they could pretend this had never happened, yet none of them wanted to end this.

Though they didn’t say it out loud and there was no way for them to show it, but they were curious about this mate bond and the power that it held.

They wanted to know what it felt like to have a mate, someone that was your other half, the person that was fated to be with you even before the two of you met.

Eros and Zuri were adventurous, they were curious about anything by nature, that was their instinct, hence if something like this happened, the variable, which was so foreign for them came, they wanted to explore more.

However, it was forbidden.

“I am sure, I am taller than you,” Zuri retorted. “What are you doing here?”

Eros chuckled, he felt relax, despite knowing he shouldn’t put his guard down. “Sightseeing, I heard this city is beautiful.” Both of them knew that was a lie, since he couldn’t say his real reason to come here. “What about you?” but, he wanted to keep the conversation.

“I am a foodie, I heard food in this city is great.”

“We should go out to have dinner,” Eros stated.

“In that case, that will be on you.”

“It will be on me.”

But, right at that time they heard blaring sound in the distance, which made the two of them stood straight and looked around.

“What is that?” Eros was sure that was a signal for something, but because he just came to this place, he didn’t know the meaning of it.

“Trespasser.” Gael had told her about this signal. “You don’t need to worry, they will tack care of it.”

This didn’t happen often, but some time there would be people, who was curious enough to trespass the hotel facility for various reason.

But, most of it was because they had a problem with the guest of this hotel, since they came from different kind and background.

“Are you sure?” Eros frowned.

But then, they heard a girl’s voice, screaming on the top of her lungs and the sound of hasty footsteps that approaching them.

It was Eros, who reacted first. He cursed under his breath and dashed toward the source of the sound, while Zuri followed behind him out of instinct.

There, Eros could see Emily rushed toward him, but behind her there was a wolf, too huge for them to say it was a normal wolf, that must be a werewolf.

“Damn it!” Eros growled and then shifted into his black beast mid air, as he charged toward Emily’s chaser, while Zuri looked around her, trying to see any potential danger.

She shouldn’t get involved in this, but she couldn’t help it.

“Come here,” Zuri said coldly, as she caught Emily’s hand and took her to the safe spot, while Eros, in his beast form, fought the attacker.

Zuri took Emily to the other side of the corridor. Because all the door of the rooms were locked, she couldn’t let her come inside, especially when it was too dangerous.

If they could attack her inside her room, there was possibility they could enter the room through the window too, but this was the fourth floor!

“Who are they?” Zuri asked Emily, who was standing behind her. She was in protective stance.

“I don’t know.” Emily shook her head, she was trembling in fear. “I was sleeping and someone was breaking the window. He shifted into his beast when I tried to run away.”

“Ck!” Zuri clicked her tongue. She had guessed it, they came through the window. But, that was not a problem now, because she could sense there was another one approaching them. “Stay behind me.”

“Are you a shifter?” Emily asked her, she was confused because this white hair girl didn’t even falter when she watched how Eros shifted into his beast.

Yet, Zuri didn’t answer that obvious question, because her senses heightened when the second attacker charged toward her.

It was a brown beast with a scar on its left eye.

At the same time, the brown beast pounced onto Zuri, she shifted into her white beast and met him mid air, her claws emerged from the tips of her fingers and her fangs elongated. There were ferocious growls that rang throughout this empty corridor.

The white beast fought ferociously, while the other beast fought as hard as her.

From the size, the brown beast was bigger than the white one, but Zuri was way more swift to dodge the attack and landed blow after blow in the right time.

Blood splattered on the floor and walls, the pungent smell of blood started to fill this corridor, as the fight grew more intense.

The attackers’ aim was Emily and it was hard to know what the reason for that.

But, for Eros, who had just finished meeting with those filthy people, he seemed to understand what was going on right now and he was so mad for this act.

Where was Colton? Why he didn’t come out and help? Did something happen to him as well?

Eros couldn’t make sure about it because his opponent was very strong. He had torn his leg, but as if he couldn’t feel the pain, he would get up and start attacking him relentlessly, didn’t give him even a second to take a breath.

How could they were so strong when they were deeply wounded?

From the corner of his eyes, he could see the white beast fought the second attacker, he grew anxious because of that, also with the fact that Emily was there, unprotected. One wrong move and she would die.

She was not like he and Zuri, once she got torn up, she would die right away, since she didn’t have healing ability.
