Chapter 146: FROZEN LAKE

Alpha Xerxes tilted his head to look at Zuri's neck. "I should say that I like the mark on your neck. It suits you."

It took everything in Zuri to not growl at the alpha, or even charged forward and gave him a few marks on his smug face.

The mark on her neck still not yet shapped properly, it still looked like Zuri just got into a bee hives and a few bees stung her.

But, whatever it would look like, there was no way she would like the mark. She hated it with everything in her and if she could, she would skin that spot to get rid of it.

Unfortunately, that was not how it worked.

"Thank you," Zuri managed to squeeze that words out of her lips, though it less with gratitude.

"Great!" Alpha Xerxes clapped his hand. "I know that you will like it." He guffawed, full of himself to be able to tame this girl. She was his white beast, after all.

"So, why do you call us, father?" Emmet asked him, reminded him about the purpose of them being here, because he wanted this meeting to end as soon as possible.

"Ah! Right!" Alpha Xerxes clapped his hand, as if he just remembered what this meeting for. "Zuri, I remember that you were close with Chaos."

This time, Zuri flinched when she heard that name. She didn't think that she wanted someone to remind her about that or even wanted to hear his name again, or maybe she was not sure how she supposed to react with that question.

Thankfully, Alpha Xerxes didn't wait for Zuri to answer that, because he proceeded with his plan.

"I got an important information about it." He leaned his back against the sofa and looked at Blue closely. "The Hound managed to find his whereabouts."

Zuri gritted her teeth, she tried to force down a thousand questions that roamed in her head when she heard that.

"What is that mean?" Zuri asked, her voice didn't sound like her at all. "He is gone. No one knows where he is."

"Nope." Alpha Xerxes shook his head. "The Hound found him. He is in the far south, near the Kane lake." That was the biggest lake and was always freeze over years.

"What do you want?" Zuri could feel her stomach lurched, she needed time alone to process it all, because Kane lake was near the city, where Chaos took her the first time.

"I want you to go with Emmet to retrieve him before The Hound did." Alpha Xerxes leaned forward, he looked at Zuri with a grin. "With the relationship between the two of you, I am sure it will be easy for you to tame him, right?"

Tame him…

Alpha Xerxes made it sound so easy, as if Chaos was a wild animal. Did he forget who Chaos was?

"What relationship do you mean?" Zuri pressed her lips tightly. She hated it when these people assumed something about her and Chaos.

However, Alpha Xerxes didn't answer that question, as he talked to himself. "I want to know whether it was right or wrong about the myth of the abomination creature and the white wolf."

What myth? Zuri had never heard about it.

======================   

River was watching the black lycan, which was prowling around her, barring his teeth. He looked scary and the little girl wanted him to stay away from her.

"Don't come closer," she sobbed because of her hand was still bleeding. "I don't want to hurt you. Stay away from me."

However, the black lycan seemed didn't heed that warning, albeit his attempt to fight himself to stay away from her, but his instinct told him otherwise.

His eyes covered with bloodlust, especially to see the weaker creature before him.

"If you come any closer I will hurt you!" River shouted at him, her lips trembled. She looked around her, trying to find a way to escape from this room and this shifter, but she couldn't find even a crack.

And yet, no matter how hard she was trying to warn the beast, he lost it to his instinct and pounced onto the little girl.

River watched him coming and dodged it right in time, but his claws tore her sleeves and caused another wound on her arm.

"You are so mean!" River was crying now. She was not happy at all with all the wounds that he caused her. "If you attack me again, I will not be gentle! I warn you!"

While saying that, River backed away from the creature, put some distance between them.

"Don't come closer!"

But, words alone was not enough to stop the lycan from attacking her and when he tried his second attempt, something happened to him.

Something horrendous that made the two people behind the wall jumped to their feet.

"CALL THE TEAM! CODE RED!"

In front of them, the lycan was burned in red fire, thrashing his body out of pain and agony.

"Damn… how she could do that?" the man mumbled to himself, they had never seen something like this before.

"What kind of creature is that girl?" the other man pressed the button and from the sprinkle, water poured down the whole white room, trying to extinguish the fire and yet, it failed. "The fire is still burning the lycan…"

"We found another precious creature…"

=======================   

The lake was so wide, it almost looked like some part of the ocean, though it was frozen all over.

The ice was so thick, so it was safe enough for them to walk over it, but Archie didn't really like their progress. It was too slow and he wanted to see the result. He wanted to see the most dangerous creature in this realm. Chaos.

The creature suddenly disappeared eight years ago and had never been spotted ever since.

He wonder why he could be trapped beneath this frozen lake…
