Untamed: The Alpha-Chapter 472 - 472 THE MISSION TO LUCINDA CITY

472 THE MISSION TO LUCINDA CITY

Zuri truly felt sorry that she couldn’t tell River a lot of things about Lise, because she didn’t really know her, since she was away most of the time when she was in the McKeltar manor.

The look of disappointment in her face made Zuri wanted to pat her head, she reminded her with White, the white wolf that she left in the manor, Darius promised to take care of her while she was not there.

“I am sorry, I don’t really know Lise. I am not around when she lived in McKeltar manor.” The last time she saw her was when Anne’s funeral and after that, she went to a long journey with Chaos.

“Oh,” River mumbled, seemed a little bit disappointed. She lowered her head to hide it.

Zuri smiled softly at her. “She is a lovely and beautiful woman.” That was all she could tell. “Your father truly loves her and I think he still thinks about her until now.” She remembered Gael muttered her name a few times when he was drank last night.

With that, River raised her head and showed her a genuine smile. “I know.” She knew about that and she treasured their time together, even though it was very short. The four of them, with Vanesha, really happy at that time.

“If you feel better, I want to take you to a small coffee shop nearby, they have a delicious cheese roll, I want you to try it.” River grinned at Zuri. She felt close to her because she looked like around Vanesha’s age and moreover, because Skylar was too scary when she tried to talk to her, she would shun her away.

“I would love to.” Zuri nodded, agreed. She needed to get out from here and started her task, roaming around this city would be a good start for her, since she needed to meet a lot of people to find the shattered soul.

But, not right now. She felt so tired and her hangover was truly upsetting.

.....

“Tell me if you want to go, I will give you a ride. I just got a license.” River seemed so excited to show Zuri her new license.

“Is it okay for you to roam around this place?” Zuri looked at her license and there, her name was not River, but Raina. Gael must have forged her identity.

“It’s fine for me now because most of the member of the Hound is in the East Draghar and the security is not as tight as the early year they moved here.”

Zuri nodded. That’s why they could enter this city without so much trouble as long as they got the right person to guide them.

These people believed they were untouchable, but the fact that they put their guard down, left her dumbfounded.

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

All the preparation had been completed and because this was the first time for them to enter Lucinda city, it was enough with only the four of them.

It would be Eros, Emily, Kyle and Colton, who would go in this mission.

Emily was shocked to see Kyle joined in this journey, as she still couldn’t forget how Kyle and his friend bullied her, even though Josh and Derek were killed by Eros, but Kyle was also one of them.

She staggered when she watched him closely for the first time in a few years. He didn’t bother her again and they moved on with their own life. The warrior also didn’t visit the infirmary frequently, thus it could be said they had never crossed path, aside from a few rare moments.

“What are you doing here?” Eros placed his hand on her waist, as he looked at Kyle menacingly. He was younger, but he had become taller than him right now, the young lycan could easily tower over him.

Kyle lowered his head, trying to look busy with his own things to avoid Eros, as he answered him in mumbling voice. “The alpha told me to join in this mission.” When he knew that Eros and Emily would come as well, he had tried his best to refuse, but what he could do?

There was no way he could outright reject the alpha’s direct order.

“Tell him to change you with another person,” Eros said in his guttural voice, as he hated to see him around Emily. Liam should know better to form a team in a mission and putting Kyle was not really wise decision.

However, Colton came to him and place his hand on his shoulder to calm him down. “You know that he can’t do that. You also can’t change the alpha’s decision.” Colton smiled at Emily to reassure her that everything would be all right. “You don’t need to worry. He will not do anything stupid, right Kyle?”

Kyle glanced at the gamma and mumbled. “I will not.” He was already not comfortable with Eros and Emily, since the death of Derek, he had been trying to avoid both of them, as he witnessed with his own eyes, what Eros could do.

At that time, he was so young, with smaller body compared to all of them, but he managed to overpower them killed Derek. Who would want to mess with someone like that? He was not even a beast, he was a monster.

“See? Everything will be fine,” Colton reassured him, as he patted his shoulder. “We need to move now.”

“Why the alpha sends both of us away?” Eros narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

It was strange for the alpha to send the beta and the gamma at the same time to the same mission. What if something happened in the pack and no one would assist him?

“Don’t worry, this is only short mission, we will return tomorrow at the very least,” Colton said and then opened the car door, as he sat beside the Kyle, who was driving, while Eros and Emily would sit on the backseat.

“Shouldn’t we wait for the alpha? He needs to explain this mission, right?” Eros looked around, but he couldn’t see Liam anywhere.

“Liam had explained everything to me, he will not come to send us off, I will be the one, who explain it to you all.” Colton gave sign to them to enter the car so they could leave immediately. “We need to hurry, so we can return immediately.”

Eros was still not comfortable with this arrangement, they would have a breakdown and briefing for every mission that they got, but for now, until the last minute, he didn’t have any idea what they would do.

Mostly, Eros didn’t feel comfortable because he was with Emily.

“Get in,” Eros said grimly, as he opened the car door for Emily and then got into the car after her. “Now, tell us what is the mission about.” He questioned Colton once Kyle turned on the engine and they drove away.

“The mission is simple, we learn that Chaos is in Lucinda city,” Colton started, with the mention of Chaos name, Kyle flinched he threw look in disbelieve toward the gamma. “Don’t worry, we just need to confirm that and meet someone there later to retrieve something.”

“It can be done with just one person, what are the four of us going there for?” Kyle inquired the question in Eros’s mind. All of them seemed to have the same question as well. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

Colton shrugged his shoulder nonchalantly, as he stared at the row of trees outside of the window. “The alpha needs Emily to check on a sample, once she confirmed it, we can leave.”

It sounded simple, but Eros and Kyle, who had gone to several mission knew there was nothing as simple as that.

“What kind of sample that I need to check?” Emily chimed in. “I need to know what it is first before I can confirm something.”

Colton looked at Emily through the rearview mirror and sighed. “You know what kind of sample. That’s what you and Ariana are working on right now.”

Emily frowned, there were a lot of things that she and Ariana worked on at the moment, but if it was something that Colton couldn’t say outright, which meant it was the secret task that the alpha gave to them, therefore, it was only one thing; it was the serum that could get rid the beast within every shifter.

The serum that could make every shifter turned normal, losing all of their ability as supernatural creature.

Emily had told about this to Eros, but Colton didn’t know about it, so did Ariana and the alpha.

“What is it?” Kyle asked because he felt like he missed something, but Colton just waved his hand dismissively.

“Something about the experiment that Emily and Ariana have been doing,” Colton replied and then he didn’t explain about this further, while Emily didn’t say anything anymore. 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦

Kyle was frustrated because he felt like he was left in the dark, but because Colton had closed his eyes and indicating he didn’t want to be bothered, he couldn’t ask him again.

On the other hand, Eros seemed to understand when he watched Emily’s reaction. He would confirm it again when it was only the two of them, but right now he would just focus on this mission first.

“Come here, rest your head on my shoulder, you must feel sleepy.” Eros pushed Emily’s head gently against his shoulder so he could rest, because they went too early. “Sleep for a while.”

Emily happily obliged that.
