Chapter 359

Name:Untamed: The Alpha Author:
359 IGNORANCE

Darius couldn’t understand why he walked over to Jasmine, knowing it was a great mistake and extremely dangerous for him to do something like that in the first place.

It was not that he didn’t understand why he was not allowed to be the luna’s personal guard anymore and was stationed in this position by the Alpha.

It was not that he didn’t understand the glare that he got from Randy and the other three warriors behind Jasmine either.

But, probably he no longer cares about those kinds of things, so he decided to approach Jasmine, despite everyone around him and even himself, telling him not to do just that.

“What are you doing here?” Darius asked Jasmine, as he stood in front of her. He didn’t wear his shirt and his skin glistened with sweat under the sunlight.

“Can you at least take a seat?” Jasmine said softly, with her usual smile whenever she saw him. She patted the empty spot next to her on the bench.

From the corner of his eyes, Darius could see all the guards shaking their heads and looking at him with a warning, but Darius didn’t heed that gesture, as he chose to sit down next to her.

A spell of silence ensued between them, since they had never had a conversation in public, especially under four pairs of eyes that were glaring at them the whole time, waiting for Jasmine and Darius to end this dangerous rendezvous.

“So, you are here now?” Jasmine started. She didn’t speak so loud, but no matter how small her voice was, Randy and the others would be able to hear her nonetheless, therefore she didn’t put an effort to be secretive.

.....

“Yes, the alpha relocated me to train the young warriors.” Darius nodded. He was staring into the distance when he said that, though he would steal a glance at Jasmine every now and then, to learn how bad her bruises were.

But, it was hard to say, since there was not much that he could see right now. Jasmine was wearing a shirt with elbow long sleeves.

“It means I can’t see you as often as before,” Jasmine stated. She wasn’t looking at Darius either, as she fixed her eyes on the group of young warriors, who were training under another older warrior in front of her. Those boys would be lethal one day and then fight the humans again, as they were being prepared for that.

What a funny place this world could be when there were constant wars everywhere and while they were sitting here to watch those boys training, in another part of the world, there was a dragon that was still wreaking havoc.

Jasmine could imagine, if she was not here and was still with the organization, it would be her, who led the members of The Hound and The Delta to take care of that mess.

But right now, she was sitting here, with a man that she had an affair with, behind Liam’s back.

There had never been a single second in her life when she had ever imagined this kind of thing happening to her. She thought she would die in one of her battles, not being a cheating mate with twin babies.

“Right?” Jasmine turned her head to look at Darius, because she didn’t hear his reply. Would this end here? Did their forbidden relationship end now since the alpha had returned?

Now the decision was in Darius’ hands. It was a subtle question to ask where they would take this kind of relationship, since they would never cross paths from now onward. Liam had made sure of that.

However, the alpha’s authority couldn’t reach beyond something that he didn’t know, right?

“We can still see each other from time to time, we are still in the same pack, right?” Darius finally said, that was a bold statement, coming out as simple words.

It could be said, he was willing to risk his life by continuing this relationship with Jasmine, even though he knew the consequences of it.

“Yes, I am glad to hear that,” Jasmine said. She extended her hand and Darius held her hand firmly without saying anything.

Both of them spent one more hour only holding hands like this, without saying anything, while watching the training of the soon to be potential lethal warriors of this pack.

Another troop to be sacrificed during another war...

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

It was raining heavily when they buried Lise’s body.

The funeral was small, there was nothing extravagant about this and there were only three people, who cried for her.

There were only Gael, River and Vanesha there, as they grieved over losing her.

Lise had been fighting her illness, but there was nothing she could do when it wore her down and her time had come to an end.

River was inconsolable, she was crying her eyes out, bawling in her grief. She always said how unfair it was for her to not be able to see her mother again and how short their time together after she was finally able to return.

She was angry and sad and Gael was there to take all of her outburst until she calmed down, but she was still inconsolable right now.

River kept crying without saying anything, until the ground swallowed her mother’s body.

On the other hand, Gael hugged his daughter tightly, she was the only reason for him to stay sane. He wouldn’t stand so calmly like this when he watched Lise being buried.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

How could he leave her there alone...

If it was not for River, Gael didn’t know what he would do with his life from this point onward.

“I want to kill those people,” River said grimly through tears, which she wiped away harshly. This was the first thing she said after losing her mother, as her eyes shone with determination.

She seemed to find a new light, a new purpose for her to live.

People kept going with their lives because they wanted something, because they needed something and now, what River wanted was; revenge.

Revenge on those people, who had robbed her time from her mother.

Six years, they had experimented on her for six fucking years! The amount of time that she could spend with her mother.

They robbed her of her childhood and hurt her in the process, and now, her mother was gone, while she didn’t have time to tell her how much she loved her.

“I want to kill them all.” River clenched her fists and twin flames erupted from them. The fire grew so bright, but before it could hurt her or other people, Gael covered her small fists with his and the flames died out.

“Yes. We will do that if that is what you want,” Gael said, he didn’t have any reason to disagree with her.

“I want to kill Sol,” River stated, because as far as she knew, Sol was the head of every experiment that they had done on her and all of that was so painful for her to endure.

“Yes,” Gael agreed once again.

On the other hand, Vanesha could only stare at River without saying anything, but she couldn’t hide her feelings from Gael’s sharp eyes.

Yet, that was another problem to deal with later, since this was not the right time and place for them to have that kind of conversation.

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

July had been crying inside the bathroom for a few minutes, because she couldn’t stand to see Flo’s eyes that were the same color as Knox, but it was only a fleeting emotion, as her feelings had been all over the place for the last few days.

She was trying to wipe away her tears and stopped herself from crying, since she didn’t want to scare the little girl by letting her see her in this kind of mess.

However, she snapped back to reality when she heard Flo screaming.

Without a second thought, July immediately got out of the bathroom only to find Knox had woken up. At the sight of him, she felt so relieved and started to tear up again, only until she saw what he was doing.

Knox was strangling Flo.

He was on top of her, while the little girl was struggling to free herself from his tight grip, she kicked him and scratched his hands, but nothing she did worked to make Knox let her go.

Seeing that, July immediately rushed over and tried to stop Knox from trying to kill the little girl.

“Knox! What are you doing!? Stop it!” July was screaming at him, she was trying to pull him back, but her strength was not on par with him.

July looked at Knox, but his eyes were the color of red. She had seen this kind of look in Chaos’ eyes years ago and nothing good had ever come out of it.

“KNOX! STOP THIS!”

In the end, July slapped Knox’s face and this made the man furrow his brows and slightly loosened his grip on Flo.

But now, his focus was directed at her.

Knox tilted his head and then looked at July sternly. His gaze was so sharp and made her shiver involuntarily. She backed away out of instinct when Knox decided to let go of the little girl and came at her instead.

“Knox?” July called his name, her voice was trembling when he approached her.

She feared him, the same feeling she felt when he acted out of his character, he had shown this side of him once in the past.
