Untamed: The Alpha

499 ARE YOU SURE HE IS NOT?

During driving back to the hotel, Zuri and Gael didn’t stop bickering with each other, as she was pissed because he asked her to come with him to confirm that, but in the end, she was the one, who agreed with that.

“Speak of the devil,” Gael gasped when he parked the car and looked at who was walking toward them, it was Chaos and Knox, they seemed to know that they would come and approach them in the parking lot. “I think you are running out of your luck.”

Zuri was too focus on their quarrel and didn’t notice Chaos and Knox, who were approaching them. She cursed under her breath. “I don’t have luck to begin with,” she grumbled and then walked out of the car and rushed toward Chaos, as she hugged him. “I miss you.”

Zuri closed her eyes and breathed in his scent. The familiar scent that she knew for so long. She felt Chaos’s big and warm palm on her back and a kiss on her forehead. She wanted to stay like this forever and didn’t care for the world.

Yet, reality was waiting for her and she couldn’t run away from it.

“Where are you going?” Gael locked the car door and approached them, as he gave Zuri a look because she was hugging Chaos in public area very intimately.

Seeing that, Zuri tiptoed and kissed Chaos’s lips instead to piss him off.

“Oh, please, get a room, I still have a dozen room available for both of you,” Gael grumbled and approached Knox. “Where are you two going?”

“Hunting,” Knox replied simply.

.....

Hunting, that was the word that Norbeat and Skylar used whenever they went out to find Chaos’s shattered soul, that was their dark humor about their task, but now Knox also used it, which made Zuri frowned, because she didn’t know those two people could affect someone like Knox.

“Both of you will go?” Zuri asked, she was a little bit surprised because usually they would go individual, they didn’t go together, especially Chaos.

Mostly, they would bring the shattered soul and left them unconscious for Chaos to finish it.

“Yes,” Knox replied, he then put his attention to Gael, his brows furrowed. “Where did you go?” he leaned over slightly to sniff on Zuri.

However, Chaos glared at him and glowered in low voice, threatening him to back off, as he didn’t like the way he tried to smell his woman.

Knox wanted to retort, but when he stepped back and bumped onto Gael, he smelled the same scent as well, though it was very faint.

“Stop doing that, you give me weird vibe.” Gael avoided him and gave Knox a nasty look, as if he had done something inappropriate, which made him dropped the question immediately, while glaring at him ferociously for suggesting something tasteless.

This must be July’s scent that still lingered on Zuri and Gael, though they had tried to not come closer to her, but there must be some that left on them, especially Zuri, since she spent quite some time with July and they even hugged each other a few times, though she couldn’t say it for sure.

“Why are you going with him too?” Zuri tried to change the topic, as she lifted her head and asked Chaos. The man was staring at her with his dark blue eyes. Was this the time for him to find more shattered soul? But, his eyes were still blue. He was not out of control too.

“Because I want to end this soon.” Chaos caressed her cheek and kissed the tip of her nose, which was cold. The night was getting colder now when they would enter rainy season. “Go inside and take a rest, Gael must have taken you to a strange place.”

Zuri’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that, but she kept a straight face. “Yes, he took me to a strange place.” However, Chaos didn’t ask further about that. “If you want to go to find shattered soul, I will go with you too.”

“You don’t need to come, you must feel tired after being out for a whole day,” Chaos said, he stared at her, there were a lot of unsaid emotions behind those dark blue eyes. “Go back to our room, I will be back at midnight.”

“No, I am fine, I want to go with you,” Zuri insisted, but then from the corner of her eyes, she watched Eros and Colton walked toward their car, which was only three cars away from them.

Zuri cursed inside of her mind, she was really running out of luck, why would she meet him here?

Without even realizing it, she clutched onto Chaos jacket, he was wearing this black jacket with grey shirt, while Knox was wearing his usual semi formal attire with the sleeves folded until his elbow.

“Are you sure he is not Chaos’s shattered soul?” Knox narrowed his eyes, he couldn’t get rid the idea that man was not Chaos’s shattered soul, he was sure that he was.

The grip on Chaos’s jacket became tighter, Zuri was not sure, whether this was to prevent Chaos from jumping on Eros and sucked out his soul, or maybe she was just too afraid for unknown reason.

“Are you sure?” Knox shifted his attention toward Zuri, his blue eyes pierced at her, as if he could see through her soul.

Zuri bit her lip, she wanted to lie.

Damn it! Why she acted like a saint? Why it was so hard to lie when she could do it smoothly before.

Yet, before she could answer that, she felt Chaos tilted her head and put her finger under her chin, as he leaned over slightly to kiss her on the lips, his black and long hair cascaded down, preventing everyone to see her expression.

But, it was enough for them to know what happened.
