Chapter 301

Name:Untamed: The Alpha Author:
301 YOU HAVE MY SWORD

Among the other four guards, it was only Darius, who didn’t act like an asshole all the time and tended to keep things for himself. He didn’t even join them whenever they tried to mock her and had a trash talk behind her back.

Therefore, Jasmine wanted to know more about this young shifter. What made him so different and what actually was in his mind to not give a fuck about them.

“I need you to fix this,” Jasmine said, as she showed him the telephone inside the room, from which she usually made phone calls to ask for anything she wanted when Liam grounded her. The phone could only be used for internal calls, thus it was impossible for Jasmine to use it to ask for help.

Darius glanced at the phone and walked over to check on it. “Why do you whack the phone?” He frowned at Jasmine. It was clear to see that the phone didn’t break from falling like she claimed. She must have whacked it on the table or something hard.

“I didn’t, it really fell.” Jasmine insisted. She wouldn’t admit that. She even dared enough to look Darius straight in his eyes innocently. She would deny it until he believed her.

Darius frowned, but he didn’t want to bother, as he checked on the phone briefly and then pulled the cable out to take it away.

“I will change this telephone with a new one,” Darius relied curtly and then proceeded to walk out of the room, leaving Jasmine alone there.

She was still wearing her bathrobe, while droplets of water cascaded down her temples. She looked beautiful. It would be hard for any man to resist such beauty.

It didn’t take long for Darius to return with a new phone and then assemble it. He moved so fast and precisely. This man knew what he was doing.

.....

“Can I ask you a question?” Jasmine asked, as she sat on the edge of her bed, crossing her legs and looking at Darius with curious eyes.

Darius glanced at her for a moment before he muttered something like; ask away.

“Why don’t you treat me horribly like the way your fellow friends do?” Jasmine wanted to know more about this shifter. He was not particularly warmed up to her, but at the very least, he didn’t give her a nasty look whenever their eyes met.

Once again, Darius glanced at Jasmine and replied with a question. “Do you want me to treat you horribly?”

Jasmine chuckled a little bit. “Of course not, I just wonder, why?”

For a moment, Darius didn’t answer Jasmine’s question. He was too occupied with the phone and once he was done, he stood up.

Jasmine thought he would walk away and ignore her, but he contemplated for a while before he finally gave her an answer for the question. “I had a mate. She was a human.”

A look of surprise crossed her face when she heard that. This was something that she would have never guessed. “She was?”

“The pack killed her,” Darius said simply, as if that was not a big deal for him, but how could it not be? It was his mate they were talking about and he lost her because of the hatred between humans and supernatural creatures, where the girl was innocent.

Jasmine was shocked, but before she could compose herself, Darius had walked out of the bedroom, leaving her alone.

What was that?

Did he mean, he hated his pack for what they had done to her? Or he hated her for being a human like her mate? How deep were his feelings toward his mate?

Despite all of those questions, Jasmine realized one thing; Darius talked to her about a sensitive topic. He brought this up himself.

Jasmine could use this if she was sensible enough about the way she reacted. And she needed to phrase her words carefully as well.

This man could be useful for her someday...

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

“Aaron?” July frowned when she heard his name. This was the first time for her to hear that name. “Who is he?”

Ciara didn’t say much, she just held the door widely, softly urging July to come inside. “He will help you.”

July didn’t move an inch, she stood where she was and looked at Ciara with concern in her eyes. She was feeling a little bit confused with her own feelings and the decision that she made right now. “Is he some kind of witch just like you?”

Ciara reciprocated her stare and made it clear for July that she could back down now if she was still hesitating because she didn’t want to deal with her regret.

“You can come inside and we will deal with your situation, or you can walk away from this house and I will consider you’ve never been here in the first place.” Ciara looked at July sternly. “It is up to you, but I will not be answering your questions.”

July knew this was a great deal, once she stepped in, there was no coming back from this and this would change her entire life.

However, she was thirty seven, she was nearly at the end of her wits. If someone didn’t kill her or she didn’t encounter a bad accident that cost her life, she would only be able to live for a few decades and then, she would start to deteriorate like an old woman.

At this point, the images of Anne, who wasted her time for something she wouldn’t get and had to live her life in a stagnant situation made July fear her future more. She didn’t want to end up like her.

The thought alone had already scared her, that was a nightmare that kept haunting her every night.

She needed a change in her life and she decided to welcome it now. She had nothing to lose and more importantly, she didn’t want to live the rest of her life wallowing in regret.

It was selfish of her to choose this path, but at the end of the day, it was her life...

“Okay,” July muttered under her breath and entered the bedroom.

Once July walked past Ciara, the look in the witch’s eyes became complicated. She was not one hundred percent sure about this, but Aaron had told her that July would come around in the end. She might hesitate for a while, but this woman would go through with the deal.

And that was all the devil needed to wrap his hand around one of Chaos’ shattered soul’s woman, one of the people that his shattered soul cared about most...

His method might be frustratingly slow, but it would be lethal once he managed to perfect this. Chaos wouldn’t be able to see it coming...

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

The meeting with the other four people ended up with Skylar seething at Zuri for being forced to take care of her. She looked at her with a dagger look in her eyes, as if she was given a chance, she wouldn’t hesitate to rip her apart right there and then.

Well, that was not going to happen, because Chaos had emphasized that he would gladly end Skylar’s life instead before she could impose any harm on Zuri.

During the entire conversation, or one could say a long argument, Zuri kept her mouth shut. Because every time she felt the tension and was about to talk back to Skylar for all the annoying things that she said, Chaos would squeeze her shoulders to stop her before she could utter a single word.

Only when the meeting ended and Chaos ushered her out of the room to their bedroom on the second floor, did Zuri confront him.

“What is that?” Zuri narrowed her eyes, as she looked at Chaos closely. “Who is that girl?”

“Skylar,” Chaos replied simply. He walked toward the balcony and stood there, while Zuri followed him because she was not satisfied with his answer.

“I already know her name, thank you,” she said sarcastically and this made him smile, while staring at the girl indulgently.

Chaos stretched out his hand and caressed her cheeks. “Do you want to fly with me?” His eyes were the color of black, but he seemed to have enough control over himself, as he looked at her warmly.

“Don’t change the topic, who is she?” Zuri was pissed, especially when she was not allowed to give the girl a piece of her mind.

“She is a mind controller,” Chaos replied. He pulled Zuri closer to him because she swatted his hand away. “One of my shattered souls.”

Yes, Zuri could tell that when she was inside the room, she was just too occupied with holding back her anger because of all of her comments about herself.

“What do you mean by a mind controller?” Zuri felt a bad omen from this woman. From the way it sounded, she could grasp the gist of the situation, but she needed more information about all of this.

Apparently, same like Norbeat’s soul possessing power, Skylar had this rare ability to control someone else’s mind and make them do whatever she wanted them to do.

Zuri was surprised, she looked concerned about this. She would be fine if this was a fair fight, but she wouldn’t like someone messing with her mind.

“You don’t need to worry,” Chaos said, he was exceptionally calm and warm toward her tonight, as he hugged her from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder, as they watched the clear sky. “She will not be able to do anything to you.”

“How can you be so sure?”

“You have my sword.”
