UNTAMED: THE ALPHA

Zuri couldn't close her eyes or stop seeing what was happening before her eyes. She wanted to scream at them to stop all this or anyone, anything that had put her in this position and forced her to watch this all over again.

The very nightmare that she had pushed to the back of her mind and tried her best to forget about, however, no help came to her aid. She was not able to unsee this.

Her head was spinning as she started hyperventilating when she watched what Emmet had done to her again. This was traumatic and she needed years to be comfortable in the crowd again, but even so, there was still this repulsion in her heart whenever someone touched her casually.

She only accepted Chaos's touch, but overall, she realized she could never come back from this nightmare, no matter how hard she tried.

Zuri felt the air leave her lungs, as her legs gave away. She wanted to scream at them to stop, but there were no words that came out of her lips. She tried to shut her eyes, yet even with her eyes closed, she could still see them, the scene kept playing at the back of her mind.

Her whole body was trembling as every moment that passed felt like a century; the smirk that curled on the corners of Emmet's lips and how he laughed to see how the girl beneath his was in desperate need because of the heat hit her so hard that she couldn't think rationally for wanting her enemy to touch her.

Zuri felt repulsive to herself.

No. It was Blue, it was not her. Blue had died, she died that night. She convinced herself that it was not her. That was only a stupid, gullible and helpless girl, who didn't take the first opportunity to run away from that pack, thinking she didn't have another place aside from there.

The world was so vast, she should have gotten out of that pack, but she didn't because she was not strong enough and had this silly thought that the world out there was way more cruel than the pack that she lived in. What a stupid way of thinking.

"No…" Zuri whimpered when Emmet's boisterous laugh echoed throughout this rickety hut that became the sole witness of the cruelty of that night.

Zuri wanted to kill him all over again. She wanted to kill that man again and torture him cruelly. A quick death was so easy for him, he didn't deserve that, he must be in more pain. She should have made him beg herself to kill him instead.

"Do you want that?"

Zuri jumped in surprise when she saw Aaron appear before her eyes. The man blocked the view of Blue and Emmet.

And even though it gave her a little room to breathe from the horrible scene before her eyes, she was not really happy to see the devil.

"What… what have you done?" Zuri hated that she stammered. She tried pulling herself together despite the pain and repulsion that she felt.

"Do you want to kill him again?" Aaron asked, he tilted his head, his golden eyes felt so sharp, as if he could see through her soul. "If you want to kill him, I can make it happen." He shrugged his shoulders, as if that was not a big deal for him, she could just say that she wanted to do it and he would make it happen.

Zuri gritted her teeth, her emotions were all over the place, she wanted to kill this devil as well if she could, but unfortunately, he was not destined to die, even Chaos couldn't kill him because he was an immortal.

"Fuck off," Zuri growled, she wanted to shift into her beast, but she couldn't do it. This realm didn't allow her to shift, which only aggravated her even more.

"I would like to fuck you instead," Aaron chuckled as he said that and watched how furious Zuri became. "Relax, it's just a joke, don't be so sensitive. I came here because I wanted to offer you something. Would you like to make a deal with me?" He blinked his eyes innocently.

Aaron extended his hand with a sweet smile on his lips, as his golden eyes lit up excitedly, waiting for her to receive his offer.

This was the same offer that Hades always wanted, the deal that the devil sought from her. She couldn't understand why they insisted on striking a deal with her.

Yet, Zuri knew better not to make a deal with the devil, because you were destined to be doomed once you agreed to it.

"Don't hesitate, you have every right to kill him all over again until your heart's content," Aaron said in his honey laced voice.

However, before Zuri could snap at him and tell him to leave her alone, someone had wrapped his arm around her shoulder, pulled her closer to himself until her back was against his chest.

This happened so suddenly and when Zuri turned around to look at who this man was, Chaos's dark eyes greeted her, but not for long as his hand soon covered her sight.

It was a swift move, but Zuri could feel the familiar sensation and the first thing that she heard was her own screams, she had been screaming without her knowing it.

But the moment Chaos retracted his hand and she could see her surroundings again, she was back to the black wolf pack, where they were still surrounded by their warriors, while Knox and Gael looked at her in confusion, they didn't know what had happened to her and what she had seen.

"It's okay, Blue. You are safe now," Chaos said, as he hugged her, caressing her back. He tried to calm her down. Her body was trembling so hard, she was having a hard time breathing, while Chaos kept trying to reassure her that something like that would never happen again.
