Untamed: The Alpha

Chapter 17: YOU ARE A MONSTER

You can love a monster, it can even love you back, but that doesn’t change its nature.

*****************

Needless to say, they were outnumbered.

Blue might be young, but it didn’t mean she knew nothing about dangers that lurked around her and the hostility that filled the air. A series of low growls and vicious snarls could be heard from the beasts that surrounded them.

Especially when one of them walked toward Chaos and stood only three steps away from him. He was the alpha of the pack and around them were his fighters.

Blue could see it and feel the same from his stance that radiated his dominance as an Alpha. It was easy to spot an alpha among the members of his pack.

.....

But, the thing that piqued her interest was the fact that Chaos didn’t even budge when he had to face the leader of the pack. He was unfazed in the face of the large number of shifters lurking in the hiding.

“You have entered my territory Chaos,” the alpha said, his voice was terribly heavy, as if he had been smoking and didn’t get enough water for his dry throat. “You should know that.”

“I know,” Chaos said simply, his eyes trained on him.

Blue was standing a step behind Chaos, thus she could see how the alpha clenched his fists tightly.

“This place is forbidden for you to pass without my permission. There are rules that you should obey in this world.” His voice tightened. It seemed he had had enough of Chaos and this was not the first offense that he had committed.

“I don’t come from this world and I don’t follow any rules,” he said simply and walked away in the direction that he intended to go.

Without doubt, Blue would follow him, but she kept glancing behind her back to see the alpha’s livid expression.

“He is angry,” she said in a soft tone. “You shouldn’t make an alpha angry.” Blue had seen a few times how an angry alpha could turn into a destructive creature, not to mention that they were outnumbered, so it was not wise to turn your back to him.

However, Chaos’s answer left the girl astounded.

“He shouldn’t make me angry,” Chaos spoke lightly.

All the creatures that roamed around this realm for centuries should know better to not provoke a chaos, as Chaos were not merciful creatures and didn’t follow the rules that they set up for themselves.

He was not one of them and would never be. He was an exception for every rule that was set down in this realm.

Blue clutched the hem of Chaos’ jacket and followed him, but she couldn’t help but throw a cautious glance at the other beasts and people around her.

“STOP RIGHT THERE!” the alpha roared. He was infuriated that the man before his eyes didn’t pay any attention to him in front of his pack members.

But, another man came to him and whispered a warning to him, he was the beta in the pack.

“Alpha, I think you should stop it. We will be at a disadvantage.” The beta narrowed his eyes at the man, who didn’t pay any attention to the warning of the alpha. “He is Chaos. We shouldn’t be on his bad side.”

“No,” the alpha said grimly. “He should follow the rules.” He was a young alpha and just took over this position from his father, thus the young blood in him was still stubborn and not so wise. “RESTRAIN THAT MAN!”

Once the order was issued, hundreds of beasts charged forward, baring their fangs as they extended their claws. Roars and snarls filled the air, sending the snow around them swirling like dust.

“Chaos...” Blue could feel her heart beat so fast. She had seen a massacre before, but she was running from it, hadn’t been the center of it.

Lise felt the pressure in her neck disappear all of a sudden when Gael said those words. But because the man, who threatened to take her life no longer supported her body, she fell on her knees, with her body shaking uncontrollably.

Gael closed the distance between them and crouched down before her. He stretched out his hand, but Lise just scrambled away even before he could touch her.

“What... what are you?” her breathing was ragged, while her vision was blurry with tears welled up in her eyes.

Before, Lise saw Gael as the saviour of her family because of his generosity for helping them, but when he claimed her as his and started controlling her entire life, he became an abuser in her eyes. But now, after she saw everything unfold and knew he was more than a savior, abuser or monster, Lise didn’t know who the man she was dealing with anymore... or what he was...

“It is complicated to explain, sweety,” he said lightly, like he always did, but his words were always heavy and had a secret behind them. “You are shocked, I will let you know once you are calm. But...” he paused and his eyes flickered with malice. “This will be a secret between us, okay? Or that bad guy will kill you and I am afraid there is nothing I can do to save your a**.”

It was always like this... the way he talked to her and the way he showed his power. He was the type who would gauge your heart out of your chest and whisper sweet nothings into your ears while doing so.

“Now, come here.” His words dripped with authority while his playful smirk was nowhere to be seen, as he stretched his hand out, waiting for Lise to come closer to him, like he wanted. “Or you know the consequences for not listening to me.”

“You are a monster,” Lise said between her hiccups, with tears streaming down her cheeks. Her fear had now turned into anger.

“Sweety, I have been called worse. The word ‘monster’ from your lips sounds like an endearment.”
