Untamed: The Alpha

209 SHE IS ADORABLE

“How?” Jasmine nodded to the ruined city before them. “How will you make this work?”

Before their eyes, from the front glass of the car, they could clearly see people that had died by the roadside as supernatural beings roamed the streets freely. Blood covered every inch of their surroundings. Fire. People’s screams. Non human beings and the other beasts’ roars. Everything had fallen directly into a calamity no one would be able to fix.

Let alone help their relationship work.

“You know that you can’t fix this thing. You can’t think of any plan that can bring us together. We are standing on different bridges now.” Jasmine was Liam’s mate, but she was not a werewolf like him, thus the mate bond didn’t work the same way for her. She used her logic to see things, even when she was with Liam.

And no matter what kind of perspective that she used, she couldn’t see a future together with him.

“If you go, the next time we meet, we will be enemies,” Liam said, as he retracted his hands from hers. He could already feel the emptiness.

“I know.”

Both of them knew about this, but there was no way they could give up what they had built and worked hard for. The cost was too much and they stood their ground for what they believed.

“I am sorry this has to happen,” Jasmine said, her voice cracked, but when she wiped her tears, she knew that she had made the right decision. At least for now.

.....

“Are you sure this is what you want?” Liam balled his fists. He wanted to knock her unconscious and take her back to the safety of his pack, despite it being against her will.

But, unfortunately he didn’t do it.

Probably he would regret it later, but now he knew that both of them had their own perspectives and the difference between them, simply, was not something that they couldn’t go through.

“I hope we will never cross paths in the future,” Jasmine replied, biting her lower lip.

“I hope we cross paths again, even if that means I have to kill you,” Liam said, he could see the surprise in Jasmine’s eyes, when he pulled her close to him, but then he leaned over and pressed her lips against his.

Liam would remember the tenderness of her lips and the way her scent gave him a sense of relief. The way the spark that erupted against their skins and how all the things felt so right when he had her in his arms.

He didn’t want to let her go. She was the only right thing that had ever happened in his life, but she was also so wrong.

Jasmine was right when she said that there was no way they could be together in this life. They didn’t have a future together in this life. They would never walk down the same path without leaving trails of blood in their wake.

“In another life, I will never let you go,” Liam whispered against her lips, as he deepened their kiss and he could taste the tears that fell on her cheeks.

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

Zuri managed to dodge those ferocious beasts, without even a single fight because Hades helped her with finding the safe path to take and told her when to move or when to stop.

This irritated the white haired girl, but she didn’t have any other way to reach Chaos’ current location without his help and if she had to fight, she didn’t think she would be able to fight all those beasts.

The situation was in a complete disorder, the beasts and vampires not only attacked humans, but they were fighting among themselves as well.

Therefore, there was no guarantee that Zuri would be safe even if she shifted into her beast, not to mention her white beast would attract so much attention.

And knowing that, Hades had been gloating over her limits all the way to where Chaos was.

“Shut up!” Zuri growled at Hades, as she hid from two vampires that had just killed a golden-colored werewolf.

“Ssst!” Hades put a finger in front of his lips, warning Zuri to lower her voice. “Don’t be so noisy, you will attract other people’s attention to you.”

It was true that no matter how loud Hades talked, no one would be able to hear him, but Zuri was different. However, the reason why she finally snapped was because of him.

Zuri hated it when she was under control, thus, without a second thought, she leapt forward to attack the nearest vampire to her.

It was one swift move when she dug her claws into his neck and made a clean cut, before she jumped to the second vampire and clamped her jaw on his face.

The shrill screams from the vampires were nothing compared to the chaos that happened throughout the whole city, thus no one paid attention to any of that.

“Tsk. Tsk. Tsk.” Hades clicked his tongue. “She is very feisty,” he said indulgently. Actually, he liked her ferocious nature, this was one of the reasons why he loved to provoke her.

Hades had told her to take a roundabout route and then to wait for around an hour before the vampires left this area, so Zuri could move toward where Chaos was, but it seemed the girl noticed that she had been tricked by the god of the underworld.

Hades didn’t mean to bring her away from Chaos, he just suggested the longest route to get to him.

After killing the two vampires, the white beast slipped the jacket on the ground on its body and shifted back to her human’s form.

Now, Zuri was wearing a brown jacket that covered her body, but the length of it only managed to reach half of her thighs.

She looked adorable, especially when she shot Hades a death glare when she turned around and spit profanities at him.
