Untamed: The Alpha

“Take another step and I will kill myself,” Blue said it calmly, her eyes were devoid from any emotions.

The white haired girl looked Emmet dead in his eyes with an onlace against her neck, which now cut her tender skin and with the bracelet on her wrist, which prevented her from healing sooner, she would die, if she slit herself.

Emmet stopped in his tracks and then retreated, glowering at Blue for threatening him that way. It was not because he liked her so much that he didn’t want her to die, but because he knew how crazy his father was over this stupid white wolf.

“Zuri...” Liam was taken aback, he was trying to come to her, but Blue glared at him and that essentially stopped him as well. “We can find another way...” he said in a whisper, but Blue only quirked her lips into a mocking smile, as if asking; what way?

Blue felt that she met a dead end and she couldn’t find any other way out, this was a hill to die on... she wouldn’t let Emmet mark her, since she knew perfectly what it meant for her.

He had met his own mate, how could he mark another person right in front of his true mate? That was insane!

“Oh, my child...” Alpha Xerxes spoke in his sing-song voice, he clicked his tongue and furrowed his brows, but the way he approached Blue was akin to someone, who was trying to calm down a pampered little girl. “You don’t have to do that... this is for your future. You can be the Luna of this pack, there are so many women who want your position, so why do you insist on making things difficult for yourself?”

“Ask them to take the position then.” Blue pressed her onlace even deeper, and yet to her surprise she didn’t feel anything at all, no fear, no hesitation, but she didn’t do it thoroughly, because she was waiting...

.....

Yes, the only reason that she didn’t kill herself right there and then, was because she was waiting, she was desperate to see him...

Would he appear when she was on the brink of death again? Just like eight years ago?

Blue wanted to laugh at herself about how desperate she was to make him notice her again. It had been f*cking eight years and none of the McKeltar family showed up to see her at all. They could do that if they wanted. She knew how powerful they were.

“Oh, not like that Zuri,” Alpha Xerxes said that in a regretful tone, he walked back from the river and glanced at the full moon, if they had to delay this any further, they would lose the best moment. “If you can show me another female white wolf, then I will replace you and you can go on your way to hell, but things don’t go like that.”

Alpha Xerxes made it clear that the only thing he wanted was his trophy, white wolf.

“Goodbye then...” Blue said, a tear fell from the corner of her eyes, but not because she felt sad she would leave this cruel world, but because until the end, no one came to save her. He didn’t come for her...

“If you kill yourself, I will let you have a companion to cross to the underworld,” Alpha Xerxes said quickly and this managed to get Blue’s attention, as she halted. “Bring her here!”

Right at that moment, the silence was broken as a terrified shriek from a woman along with Emmet’s frantic screams rang in the night air.

“NO! STOP IT!” Meredith tried to struggle against the two guards, who were holding her arms and dragged her to the front.

They threw her to the ground right before Blue’s eyes, between her and the Alpha. Emmet immediately came to her and desperately talked to his father.

“You promise me that you will put her out of the way!” Emmet yelled at Alpha Xerxes. “She will not intervene with our plan!”

No matter how rude and selfish Emmet was, Meredith was still his true mate, the bond had grown so strong over the years they were together, though they hid it very well.

And no matter how dumb Emmet was, he had seen this coming the moment his father knew that he had met his true mate, he would hold Meredith as a leverage against him, since he knew that meeting his true mate would jeopardize his father’s plan to have Blue as the Luna.

This was the main reason why he hid Meredith in the first place.

However, Alpha Xerxes simply tilted his head and spoke lightly about the situation. “I will not hurt her because she is your mate, but if she is going to kill herself, I will have to send someone to accompany her.” He shrugged his shoulder. “I am just being nice. I don’t want her to go alone.”

Blue gritted her teeth when she met Alpha Xerxes’ eyes, it was as if he was saying that if Meredith had died, it would be another life that was taken because of her.

She would be the reason why another person lost their chance to live their life.

“Your choice, little girl,” Alpha Xerxes smirked at her. He folded his arms and enjoyed the battle within the white haired girl’s mind. He could see through her and knew that she wouldn’t be able to go through this. He could see how she faltered about her decision.

Poor girl. She didn’t know how to win a battle. You shouldn’t make yourself readable...

“Kill her.” And Alpha Xerxes decided to take one step ahead, as he ordered the two guards from earlier to kill Meredith in front of them.
