Untamed: The Alpha

161 WE FOUND HIM!

“I hate it when I have to repeat myself.” Liam frowned at Damon because he kept questioning his decision. He thought to find another beta in his pack, but Damon had been with his father for a long time and his knowledge about all the dirty things and the secrets that Xerxes had was too deep. Liam couldn’t get rid of him as he pleased.

“But, you want to meet Archie Williams? Do you know who is that man?” Damon shook his head in disbelief. “He is the head of The Hound, he is the founder of that nasty organization that hunts our kind down and you want to see him?”

Liam raised his head and walked closer to Damon and for some odd reason, the beta felt intimidated by his presence alone. How could his attitude change over a single night?

“Thank you for your information, but I know very well who that man is,” Liam said calmly, but the alpha tone in his voice said otherwise.

He didn’t look like that cowardly boy, who was bullied by his own big brother anymore, but he completely looked like he was born to be the alpha. Did that even make sense?

“You arrange the meeting and I don’t want to hear any excuses.” Liam walked toward the door and glanced at Damon over his shoulder. “And don’t keep questioning my decisions, that’s so annoying, I am afraid I will consider demoting you from your position if you keep doing this.”

After saying that, Liam slammed the door closed, leaving Damon alone, staring at the closed door with a messed up mind.

What was he going to do when he met Archie Williams?

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

.....

It had been a month since Zuri stayed inside this cheap motel. No one questioned her or asked her where she came from, the owner only cared about money and Zuri gave her a lot of it for her stay here.

It was today, when the sky rumbled and thunder struck the ground that she was woken up from her deep slumber. She had lost count of how many hours she had been sleeping for a day. She felt like she was dreaming even when her eyes were wide awake.

Zuri took a deep breath and heard the pitter patter of the raindrops that hit the window as the room turned darker, even though it was still clearly daytime. She rubbed her face and saw the bracelet that shackled her beast had long gone.

This was the only reminder of her that her meeting with the underworld god was not a dream, but even so, she didn’t have any desire to have anything to do with him.

She knew better to not make a deal with the devil, alright?

No, she didn’t know.

This time, Zuri couldn’t fall asleep again and her mind reeled to the options that she had. This was the first time for her to really think about what she was going to do, instead of wasting her time by sleeping and escaping reality only to come to the arms of a nightmare.

‘Find the organization.’

That was the first thing that came to her mind, but it also meant she would meet with Anne and July.

It was not hard to find them, since she used to gather information about everything that had happened in this realm. She also knew about the frozen lake, where The Hound’s scientists were trying to find Chaos there.

So, apparently he had been trapped there all this time.

But, the question was; did she still want to see him? For what?

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

“You are not the Alpha!” Xerxes roared from his bed, since he couldn’t move his body even an inch, he was trapped in his own body and all of this was because of Liam.

Who would have thought that his second son was more cunning and devious than he could ever imagine?

“Don’t you dare to do that!” Xerxes glared at Liam when he injected him with something that had been mixed with silver, this corroded his internal organs, but since the dose was not too much, he would heal and yet Liam would dose him again and this would continue until he decided otherwise.

“I have done it,” Liam said calmly and put aside the injection, as he stared down at his father. “I am the Alpha. I can end your life with a flick of my finger, therefore find a way to accept it, since there is nothing you can do.”

Liam was the one who had given Emmet the silver powder for him to fight when he was training, making him lazy and always relied on it. He was also the one who gave Mateo an idea for Zuri to escape from this pack, though in the end the plan failed.

And he was also the mastermind behind Adel’s suggestion to bring Zuri to the rickety hut and told his father about it, so she could curry favor with the Alpha.

Every plan that he concocted, went pretty well, but now he needed to know more about Archie Williams, since he would meet him tonight.

“Now, I have a few questions and if you fail to answer me, I will cut every finger of yours.” Liam took a chair and sat down beside Xerxes’s bed. “Ready?”

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

“We found him!” One of the scientists said, jumping from his seat when he saw what was being displayed on the screen.

It was a man, trapped in the ice and even though the whole lake was so dark, until it gave those people a headache to look for what Archie Williams wanted, but they finally found it. A living being there.

“Someone make a call to Mr. Williams now!” he said excitedly and a few people gathered around the monitor, while one of them tried to reach Archie Williams.

“Yes, sir, we found him! You need to come and see it!”
