A Mate For The Last Lycan
Chapter 151: MISERY

Chapter 151: MISERY

Gayle was not a saint, he had a good amount experience with naked woman, but he had never seen anyone close like her.

Her ribcages protruded against her skin, her stomach was hollowed and her extremely thin arms fell to the side.

He couldn’t believe that he was being overpowered by this skinny woman. How she could hold so much strength when she was this skinny? It was insane!

Not to mention, this was the same woman, who had killed nine of the magic users in less than two hours before.

Zuri looked like she had not yet eaten anything for months. Even those people, who lived in the poverty looked better than her.

This sight was astounded and Gayle ended up staring at her for longer than necessary. He couldn’t help himself, but gawked and this reaction rewarded him with a harsh kick from the alpha.

"Scram!" Khaos growled dangerously at him, using his alpha’s voice, which made Gayle whimpered and he dashed away.

"I will get clean dress!" He said in hurry, afraid the alpha would kill him. He looked like he was going to do that.

Zuri’s dress was covered in blood, therefore Khaos couldn’t put the dress on her again and his cloak was soaking wet when he went under the water to pull her up.

There was one thing that was clear here; She was suicidal now.

She had cut herself before and now it became more dangerous as they had inflicted more curses on her. Letting her go probably was not the best option when you saw this progress on her mental state.

Khaos cradled her in his arms, rubbing his palms up and down her body to keep her warm until Gayle returned with clean dress.

"It’s quiet down there," Zuri said in small voice, which was a little bit trembling because she was so cold. "I like it. I should take the ship, I guess."

"Are you going to jump from there?"

Zuri didn’t answer the question, she changed the topic, as if she couldn’t focus on one thing. "You said you are not going to leave me."

"I don’t leave you."

"But, you ask me to leave you." Zuri closed her eyes. "I don’t want to leave. I am used to the pain. My fault for complaining, so don’t tell me to leave. I have nowhere to go and I have no one to hold me like this. I am crazy. I know. But, I want to be with you. Attachment or not, or whatever you want to call it, I want to be with you."

And that was it. That was her truth.

"Let’s finish this beauty blood and I will not be in pain anymore."

Meanwhile, at the pier, Caiden was sitting on a small boat, hugging the white wolf to warm himself, as he stared at the big ship not too far from there.

"I think it’s only us two, baby." Caiden shifted his attention to the white wolf. "I don’t understand why she named you Shadow. I like fluffy more." He sighed and stared at the sea again. Waiting was a boring activity.

For the next several days, Zuri fell sick. She would see things and started to scream in her sleep. The voices and the hallucinations did not only haunt her in her conscious moment, but also in her nightmare.

There was time when she couldn’t differentiate whether it was her hallucination or reality. She clawed Rhett and almost killed Elijah, which made thing difficult for them to control her because the alpha rejected their suggestion to chain her with silver chain.

A week later, it was only Khaos, who could get closer to her without risking his life.

Whether Zuri was influenced by her hallucination or not, she restrained herself from hurting him. She had hurt him before and she regretted it.

There was one particular night where she was very cold, no matter how many blankets that threw to her and how warm the room, she would feel the cold. Her whole body was trembling and she would cry because the coldness felt like needles that pricked her skin and it reminded her of her father’s needles.

Khaos would be there to hug her. He didn’t say anything, as he held her close to him, bearing the heat, as he was sweating.

But, there would be night where Zuri felt very hot, as if she was being burned alive and she would go out to lay down on the snow naked.

During this time, Khaos would clear the area, so no one would see her like this. He stayed with her, sitting on the cold, snowy ground, staring at her naked body. She didn’t gain weight, if anything, she became even more skinnier.

And a week later, the royal entourage that was led by the king arrived, people made a commotion when they saw the royal banner.

Khaos had received the report about his visit, a week ago. But, it was not like him to come personally. The idea must not come from him or his royal beta.

"Princess Rose," Zuri said, as she nestled in Khaos’s arms. She looked pale, but she got slightly better now.

Glenda increased the dosage of her medicine, which made her sluggish. You would often find her stared at the distance blankly and talk to herself.

"She has a secret guild under different name too, just like you." Zuri caressed Khaos face, as they laid down on the bed, she just vomited her lunch and felt very weak.

Twelve curses more to go before this misery ended. Or before it ended her life.

"Do you know that?" Khaos raised his brows, he caressed her back. She had been telling him that her back hurt. Actually, all of her bones were in pain.

"I happened to know about it accidentally when I closed the deal for the pack three years ago." But only recently she remembered that again. "You can deal with the king, I will deal with her."
