UNTAMED: THE ALPHA

Zuri rolled her body over when Chaos pulled her closer. The mattress was nice and comfortable, but there was nothing that could beat the feeling of her sleeping in his arms. She felt like she could forget about everything and sleep like a baby.

"Sleep, Blue… you need some rest," he whispered softly into her ear.

And that was the last thing that she heard, as she complied with what he said and closed her eyes. She was very tired, today was very exhausting, as there were a lot of things that had happened and she wanted to forget about everything for a little while, since it would help her to think about their next step better.

Zuri nuzzled her head against his chest and then let her guard down, as she fell asleep. She was indeed very tired.

For a moment, Chaos just held Zuri like that, he waited until her breathing became even and he was sure that she had fallen asleep. Only then did he slowly remove himself from her and get off the bed. The room was slightly dark, because they didn't turn on the lights, but from the view out of the window, he knew the ship had started to sail.

This ship was so big, so the waves from the sea were not really felt by the passengers.

Chaos then took the blanket and covered Zuri with it, as he leaned over and kissed her cheek gently, he put some spell on her, so she wouldn't wake up anytime soon.

Zuri was a light sleeper for most of the time, since she was not used to lowering her guard and should be ready at any moment, therefore, Chaos wanted to make sure that she got the sleep that she needed.

Not only that, he put a few spells around this room, so no one would be able to enter, whether it was human or non-human, or even the devil himself.

It was not a complicated spell that required a lot of energy, but it would allow Chaos to know if there was someone trying to come closer to her.

Chaos could still use this kind of power, but to teleport both of them straight to the McKeltar manor, it needed him to exert himself, which he couldn't do at this moment.

"Sleep, Blue…" Chaos said, as he caressed her hair and then walked out of the room.

He walked toward the upper deck, where he could see the dark sea beneath him. He stayed in his place for a moment, staring at the dark water beneath the ship.

For other people, there was nothing strange with the sea tonight, it was so calm and it seemed their trip would be smooth, but right now, around the ship, Chaos could see there were a few things moving about in the water.

Chaos narrowed his eyes and then spoke coldly. "Come out now," he said in a commanding tone.

For a moment, nothing happened, but then a minute later, something emerged from the surface of the dark water.

At first, the sight was obscure and no one would know for sure what it was, only after a few moments, the things that had been swimming around the ship came to the surface and emerged from the darkness of the night and sea water.

There were two women, with long hair, covering their chests, but the other half of their bodies was under the water, thus no one could see beyond that.

Yet, Chaos didn't need to see that to know what they were. They were sirens, they were Naiads, nymphs who lived in the ocean and looked like women.

"What do you want?" Chaos asked, he could feel their presence ever since they came to the port.

"Chaos," one of the sirens with red hair stared at him with her dark eyes, her gaze hard, as she spoke. "Leave the nymph with us."

Chaos smirked upon hearing that request, it seemed, not only the devil, who wanted him to leave her, but the sirens as well.

No, even the centaurs had warned him about the ill fate between the two of them. No matter how many lifetimes, the two of them were not supposed to be together.

"Why should I do that?" Chaos asked calmly and from afar, he could see there was another siren that broke out of the surface of the water as well, followed by another two, for now, there were a total of five sirens that had shown themselves in front of Chaos.

It could be considered a lot, since the sirens rarely showed themselves to other creatures.

"You know why," the siren said. "She is a pandora box for you, she will release the worst side of you if you keep her by your side. Aaron will use that fact for his own benefit to cause ruckus in this realm."

This siren didn't need to tell Chaos about that, because he was well aware of it.

However, if letting Zuri go was that simple, they wouldn't be here right now. He had sacrificed anything, everything just to be with her, though this was not the best decision, or even could be considered acceptable, Chaos still didn't want to let her go.

Not until Zuri herself put an end to his life…

That was why he gave the sword to her. It should be her, who put an end to this ill fate between them.

"You are being so stubborn," the siren said. She looked upset because Chaos didn't say anything, but from the look on his expression, she knew exactly what was in his mind right now.

"I will expect all of you to stay away from us during this journey," Chaos said. That was a warning for all of them to not involve themselves.

"You will return to her."

"She is the only person I will return to."
