UNTAMED: THE ALPHA

Alpha Liam didn't allow anyone to enter the room they locked Eros up in after he killed Derek.

First, Darius was out for his blood. Second, Eros was not stable yet. This was also what Alpha Liam had been telling anyone who asked about the condition of his beta.

"But, Alpha," Colton, the gamma of the pack, approached Liam, who was staring into the distance. There were a lot of things that had happened in this pack since he was away to Kalee city.

The dragon was still wreaking havoc there, but from what he heard, the Hound and the Delta had found a method to take down the beast.

Liam was curious about what kind of method they had to take down that kind of beast and for now, the two countries seemed to have come to a political agreement and united as one entity that would strive to get rid of all supernatural beings.

Their existence would be in danger starting from this point if the two countries managed to take down the dragon and joined forces to eradicate the existence of all the supernatural creatures from this realm.

"What is it?" Liam turned around and then looked at his beta, who seemed so calm, though he knew there was a lot of concern that he was about to mention to him.

"If you lock Eros up because he is a danger to anyone and to keep the pack safe from him, since he is not stable yet, why do you let Emily enter his room?" Colton couldn't understand the way the alpha was thinking right now, because he was not supposed to endanger anyone else in his pack.

However, Colton was not that naïve to think that alpha Liam didn't realize it, but he needed his confirmation on his suspicion.

"Is it because you don't care, Alpha?" Colton asked him again, more carefully this time. He waited for his answer, but what he heard was a scoff from him.

"Do you really think that I will keep him here, because of my kindness?" Liam tilted his head, as he spared Colton a brief glance.

He wouldn't have taken Emily with him if it was not because of Eros. He was interested in that lycan, since their kind was so rare at this time and based on what he knew from Jasmine, the lycan was an experimental subject in the past, but he managed to escape from the facility.

It was a jackpot for him to find Eros.

But now, that child gave him a headache by killing his pack member. Not to mention it was the younger brother of one of his best warriors.

And now, there was not any solution for this, except to let go of one of them.

He knew who he needed to keep, especially when he had bad feelings about Darius.

Liam could order someone to investigate further about his suspicion, but he was afraid. Right. He was afraid to find out the truth.

He didn't know why he felt this way, but he didn't want to open a can of worms.

"Alpha Liam, she is just a child." Colton knew it. He knew why he let Emily go into the room under the pretense that she could bring him food, while the little girl was more than happy to do it.

But then, if what alpha Liam said was right and Eros was not stable, there was a high chance that he would hurt her.

The scar on Emily's face was undeniable proof of that.

Eros was not stable…

But then, Liam didn't care at all about that. As long as he had someone else to sacrifice, why would he let one of his pack members die when he was going to lose one of his best warriors already?

"She has to prove herself that she is useful," Liam said curtly before he turned around to walk back to the nursery room, where he spent most of his time with the twin.

He didn't want to see Jasmine for the time being. At least until he got rid of Darius. He didn't want to see her lying blatantly to his face.

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

"I brought you extra meat," Emily said, as she sat down next to Eros, put the tray on the ground and showed him their dinner. "Ariana let me have the rest of the meat in the kitchen," she said happily.

It had been more than a week since the incident and Derek had been cremated. Emily saw how devastated Darius was with her own eyes.

He wreaked havoc after the cremation and if it was not because of Gamma Colton, she would have been mauled by him and now, Emily was afraid to walk around the pack house recklessly and spent most of her time with Ariana, helping her with a lot of things regarding herbs and medicinal plants.

"You don't need to come here every day, you can ask someone else to bring food for me," Eros said quietly, as he looked at their lunch. It was not much, there was nothing fancy about the extra meat because he knew this was the meat that would be consumed by the omegas, the pack members from the lower class of the werewolf hierarchy.

The food for the omegas was different from the food that was served in the pack dining room.

"But, if I don't come here, I can't meet you…" Emily replied, she took her plate and then brought it closely to her, as she started eating.

This was the only way for her to be able to see Eros, therefore, how could she let go of this chance?

"Moreover, you have done the same for me in the past, when I was so afraid to go out of the room," Emily added.

Eros was quiet, but then he put the extra meat on her plate. "Eat more," he said.
