Chapter 372

Name:Untamed: The Alpha Author:
372 DECEPTION

“You look so happy,” the face on the tree said. He had seen Chaos countless times throughout the decades, but he had never seen him at peace like right now. “Most of the time you will look aloof.”

Mostly, Chaos would sit on his roots and then stare into the distance. He would look like he didn’t care about anything else, since no one cared about him. As one of the gods of destruction, he was feared by those mortal souls.

All of them would avoid him like disease, as wherever he walked, he would bring calamity with him. The ground would be barren and something bad would happen wherever he went.

This was the only place where he could stay a little bit longer without bringing any destruction because the tree of life would keep everything alive even in his presence.

Just like what Blue did. She kept everything alive only with her presence, the palace wouldn’t look dull and bleak with her there, even in Chaos existence.

This was how the two of them lived together, they were completely opposites of each other, but you wouldn’t be able to deny the attraction between them.

“You look at peace now.” It was not a compliment, the face on the tree only stated the fact and then he retreated, as he disappeared into the bark of the tree as it returned into its original shape, just a boring old tree...

On the other hand, Chaos didn’t reply to that and acted as if no one was there when he picked Blue’s body and cradled her in his arms. He rested her head against his chest, as she snuggled closer, looking for warmth from his body.

Her white hair fell on Chaos’ arm and he took a strand of it, as he fiddled with it between his fingers. She looked so beautiful and soft, fragile and vulnerable, but she could sleep soundly in his presence when she knew fully well he could do every single worst thing one could possibly imagine.

.....

Chaos thought that was how trust looked like.

This little nymph trusted him to not hurt her, trusted him enough to fall asleep without worries what would happen to her in the presence of a god of destruction.

Chaos traced her jawline to her chin and then her soft cheeks. He stared at her small lips that were slightly ajar, as her pointed nose was a little bit red, because the night was a little bit cold.

And with that, Chaos spread his wings and covered them both, to block the cold wind and keep her warm.

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

Blue woke up and felt slightly dizzy, but she was in her bed right now, tucked comfortably inside her blanket, while the light of the day shone through her opened window.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and then yawned. She felt so tired, but happy at the same time, as if something great had happened and she forgot about that completely.

Blue didn’t immediately get up from her bed, she blinked her eyes, trying to remember the source of her happiness when she looked at her hand and found a black feather in her grip. Apparently, she had been holding onto this feather throughout the whole night.

That was when she remembered everything, about her trip to the immortal world, the vast land, the old tree and the story that lulled her to sleep.

She remembered all of that and now she was sitting straight on her bed, grinning widely. She kept holding onto the feather in her hand and wouldn’t let it go. It would be her precious possession now, because there was a high chance that she wouldn’t get another one of it.

Blue then got off the bed and put the feather in her box, where she would put everything that she loved. This was her treasure box.

And after that, she got up to clean herself up, before she rushed out of her bedroom to look for Chaos. She wanted to thank him for the trip last night, but she couldn’t find him anywhere, not even in his bedroom or his library.

He was nowhere in this palace and this made her a little bit sad, since she really wanted to see him.

But, if he was not here, it meant he had something to do and usually, it would take a few weeks or even months for him to return.

It was strange that the mortals had a different concept of time, not like the immortals, but when you waited for someone, that was still a long time...

Dejectedly, Blue walked toward the garden. She hoped the beauty of the garden that she had nurtured would lighten her mood a little bit.

However, when she arrived there, someone had been waiting for her. He was the same man that came to visit some time ago.

He has his back against Blue, but she could recognize him easily, especially when he turned around and grinned at her.

“Lord Chaos is not here,” Blue said. She remembered Chaos seemed to not like this immortal, so she stopped walking closer to him and kept her distance from him.

“Oh, I am not here for him, I am here for you...” he was smiling cheerfully.

“What do you want?” Blue asked, she glanced around her and it seemed he was not with anyone, he was alone. “I don’t even know you.”

“Oh, my bad, silly me...” he grinned even wider.

He looked so young and like a carefree spirit, but there was something that troubled Blue since he had those golden eyes, the same color of eyes like Hades and she didn’t like the god of the underworld.

“My name is Aaron, one of the gods of destruction,” he said lightly and took a step closer, but Blue backed away.

“What god?” she asked in a low voice, feeling wary about his answer.

He smirked and then replied quietly. “Deception.”
