Chapter 150: AN ATTEMPT

Khaos set her free, but why she did not feel happy? Was she too comfortable to be trapped in this endless misery?

He told her to leave, so she didn’t need to suffer anymore, but why all she could feel was this strong sense of abandonment?

Was she too broken with no way to fix it anymore, thus she preferred to suffer as long as she was with him? Why instead of happy that she didn’t need to be in pain anymore, she was angry and sad.

"Leave, Zuri."

The word hurt her so badly, she didn’t want to hear that. She wanted him to take it back. She didn’t want to hear that awful word. She wanted to claw his heart out, so he couldn’t breathe that word again.

"Everything is ready for you." Khaos kissed her forehead. His touch was always gentle. "You have until tomorrow to decide this. Go through the secret tunnel and no one will stop you."

And after saying that, Khaos pulled away from her. She gasped when she lost the closeness with him. She longed for his warm and touch. She grappled with her sanity, trying to be logical with the situation, but her mind didn’t work.

She wanted to rush toward Khaos and hugged him. She didn’t want him to turn his back on her, but all she could do was standing there with dead bodies on the floor and blood in her hand, watched him disappeared behind the close door.

The quietness that returned to this room gripped her heart and the voices started again.

"No. Stop. Shut up. I don’t need your opinion. No. you are wrong. I don’t do that," Zuri talked to herself, as she walked out of the room an hour after Khaos left and found Gayle was standing outside of the door.

The new gamma stared at her, there was a sympathetic look in his eyes.

Zuri held his eyes for a while, but she walked away toward the woods with Gayle followed behind her. The night was still cold and the pale moonlight shone in the dark sky.

"Where are you going, Zuri?" Gayle finally asked after he followed her for half an hour, they had walked past the spot where they used to train together.

"I want to clean myself."

Gayle was rather surprised that she answered his question, since she had been murmuring to herself. "But, you can take a bath in one of the bathrooms in the pack house."

"I need to clean myself."

"Huh?"

Gayle couldn’t understand what she meant, but he followed her anyway. Khaos had ordered him to keep his eyes on her and that was what he was doing right now.

However, it didn’t take long before Gayle understood what she meant. They walked toward the river. It was frozen, but there was some part that was not covered with ice and Zuri walked there, she stripped off her dress as she walked and this made Gayle freaked out.

"Hey! I am still here! You shouldn’t be naked in front of me!"

Instead, Zuri turned around, she was only in her undergarment and as fast as he could, Gayle turned his body around, so he couldn’t see her nakedness.

"Are you even real?"

"What do you mean with that question? Of course, I am real!" Gayle growled, he was frustrated. He still had his back against her when he heard the splashing sound of water, indicating that Zuri had gone under the water.

Her dress was on the ground, so did her undergarment, which made Gayle turned bright red. She was crazy! How she could be naked with ease in front of him?! She is insane.

"Is that not cold?!" Gayle shouted. He kept his distance, but still kept his eyes on her. From afar, he could see her head was above the water, which was good.

"It’s cold," Zuri replied.

Great. At the very least, she was still responsive and communicative. Gayle considered his option about this absurd situation.

He couldn’t call for a warrior to help him when Zuri suddenly didn’t mind to be naked in front of men. It would only create scandal and the last thing that Khaos needed on his plate was this ridiculous problem.

The only option left was to inform the alpha, but Khaos was too far for Gayle to mindlink him directly, so he needed to relay the message to a few warriors.

Now Gayle could fee Caiden’s frustration.

"Then why don’t you get out of the water? Don’t you feel tired? Let’s go back to the pack house and you can sleep in a warm bed!"

Zuri tilted her head and stared at him. She didn’t say anything for a while, but she kept her eyes on him, which made Gayle was a little bit uncomfortable.

"What?"

"You are talking too much. All of you are talking too much. Why did you keep suggesting different thing?"

"Huh? Suggesting what?" Gayle looked around him. He was alone.

"I don’t want to hear your nagging anymore." Zuri then dipped her head under the water.

"I am not nagging!"

Gayle sat down crossed legs on the ground, waiting for that little head to pop out from under the water, but when two minutes passed and she didn’t come out, Gayle was alarmed.

"Oh, shit!" Gayle immediately stood up and took off his shoes and shrugged off his cloak. "Hey! Zuri! Are you sleeping?!"

The gamma rushed to the river, but before he could jump into the cold water, he saw a flash of white that moved past him so fast and the splashing water.

It was the alpha’s beast without doubt and when he came to the surface, he carried Zuri in his arms, which allowed Gayle to breath in relief.

"Is she, alright?" Gayle approached them, but the alpha growled dangerously at him. At first, Gayle didn’t understand.

"Scram!"

Gayle startled and then realized that Zuri was still naked. It was only brief, but he saw how her bones protruded.
