Chapter 272: 272

272 WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO HIM

‘Think about this carefully, before you give me the answer, but before that, I will be gracious enough to let you have a taste of what it feels like to have both of your children in your arms.’

That was the last words that he heard from the devil before everything went dark for a fleeting second and Liam gasped loudly, he stood up in alert and looked around him immediately.

He was still in the infirmary and Jasmine was still sleeping on the bed, while their son was next to her, in his crib, sleeping. There was no white fog or anyone here.

Was that a dream? Liam couldn’t be sure about that, but he indeed felt a little bit strange about this whole situation.

He stood up from his sitting position, where he had his head leaning on Jasmine’s bed and then walked toward the crib. He put his finger in front of the baby’s little nose to feel his warm breath. He was breathing. He was alive and that was all that mattered.

He lost one child, he didn’t think he could handle losing another child.

After that, Liam leaned over to give a kiss to his son before he walked toward the door. He needed to have some fresh air, the chilly night wind would help him to clear his muddled mind.

However, once he stepped outside of the door, he saw Ariana come running toward him. The healer’s eyes were widened in surprise. She sounded out of breath when she told him what was happening.

“The baby, the baby is alive,” she said frantically. “Your daughter is alive!”

.....

For a moment, Liam froze, since he couldn’t find a proper reaction to this information. He frowned and then when Ariana talked again to make sure that the alpha heard every word that she said, there was only a word that he could speak.

“Impossible.”

Ariana agreed with him. It was indeed impossible for someone to come back alive after they died, especially when it had been hours since their demise. She was sure that the baby had died during labor. She had checked everything, but whatever that was happening now was hard to explain.

“You need to see it yourself,” Ariana said, she urged him to go with her and take a look at this miracle himself.

However, Liam didn’t think this was a miracle, his mind raced recalling everything the devil named Aaron said. He offered this to him and wanted to make a deal with him.

Liam couldn’t shake this uneasy feeling when he rushed toward the room, where they put his dead first born to be cremated the first thing in the morning.

This was ridiculous and Liam didn’t think it made any sense, yet there were a lot of things that remained mysterious and had no answer, maybe this was just one of those... or maybe this was indeed Aaron’s doing...

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

Zuri couldn’t help approaching him when she saw Chaos standing on the balcony of this luxury hotel that they occupied. Of course the wolf came with them. It was not a big deal for Chaos to make it happen, even though it was against the rules.

For now, White was happily curling her body on the couch, after being fed and Zuri had been tuning the television, trying to distract herself, yet in the end she gave up and stood up to approach Chaos.

Zuri stood behind him and then rested her head on his back. She came to love this scent of him and according to what Gael said, she was the only one who could smell him and Knox, since both of them were supposed to not have any smell, including all of the shattered souls.

“What happened? Something is bothering you?” Zuri wrapped her arms around his waist, hugging him from behind, while Chaos held her hands. “You make me worried.”

Chaos said nothing and this was something that Zuri was used to, but now she needed an explanation. She wanted to know what was on his mind.

“Tell me. I know there is something wrong.” Zuri tightened her arms around his waist and buried her face in his back. She wanted time to stop, so they could stay like this for a little bit longer, because only at moments like this did Chaos look normal. As normal as he could.

“The darkness in me is hard to be controlled.” Finally, Chaos spoke when Zuri thought he would remain silent for the rest of the night.

Zuri opened her eyes when she felt Chaos shifting his body before facing her. He extended his hand and lifted her chin, so she could look at him directly.

His eyes were dark, so dark, as if the darkness in him wanted to drift to the surface. Zuri almost forgot that the color of his eyes was originally blue. As it had been a long time since she last saw his eyes in that color. And now they were back to black again, even though it had only been a few since Chaos last claimed a shattered soul of his.

“What is happening with you?” Zuri stretched out her hand and touched his face. She didn’t know, neither did she have any idea how it felt to have darkness in your soul that you couldn’t control. What it felt like...

“I know that you are already aware of this, Blue.” Chaos loved to call her by that name and Zuri only compromised it when it was him.

She didn’t like that name anymore after what she had gone through, but when Chaos called her with that name, it was not only bad memories that got stirred up in her mind, it reminded her there were a few good things that happened to her as well during her childhood.

Her school, her friends, Nikolai, Gael, Knox and Anne... she would never forget Anne. She was the only mother figure for her, since she didn’t know her real mother, as she had never been raised by one.

“What will happen if you can’t control it?” Zuri looked at Chaos with worry in her eyes. She was not ready to hear the answer, but she needed to know everything about this whole situation.

The look in Chaos’ eyes became sad... if that was even the right word to describe it. He looked distraught, anxious and... helpless...

Zuri had never seen him like this before, thus she became even more confused and worried. Was it that worse? What would happen?

She remembered the malicious smile on Chaos’ face when he tore every limb of his shattered soul, his eyes brimming in thrill. He had done more than that to the last two shattered souls that he claimed recently.

Zuri was well aware that his shattered souls shouldn’t be in this realm in the first place, since every one of his shattered souls would eventually turn into a monster like him at one point, thus it could be said to be doing a favor to get rid of them before any of that happened.

Yet, to witness how brutal Chaos was turning in order to get rid of them, when he could just do it in a simple way, was leaving an unsettling feeling in Zuri.

“What will happen?” Zuri demanded. “Tell me Chaos, what will happen to you?”

Chaos sighed deeply. He became weird and weird and Zuri felt frantic seeing him like this. She wanted to cry, but she didn’t know what she should cry for.

Chaos then leaned over to rest his forehead against hers, as he spoke softly and gently, as though by doing that, it would make things better.

“I will lose myself,” he started. “I will lose myself, my memory, everything...” since the only thing that would drive him was his lust for blood and... chaos.

Zuri needed some time to discern the information that she got from him, but no matter how hard she tried to understand, the only thing that she could conclude from that was...

“Will you forget me if that happens?” Her voice was barely a whisper when she mentioned that, but her heart was already bleeding for the answer that she had never heard. She knew better what his answer would be from the silence that Chaos offered.

Chaos kissed her lips gently, but he held her tightly, as if he didn’t want to let her go.

She didn’t want to forget this moment, nor did she want to believe that one day Chaos would forget her, anything about her...

When he kissed her like this, as if he would never let her go, would it be possible for him to forget this feeling? Letting himself to be controlled by his instinct. His dark side.

Zuri didn’t want to believe that Chaos would be capable of forgetting about her...

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

Liam went over to the room, but even before he could reach there, he was already able to hear the crying sound from inside, the baby was crying. His daughter was alive and now was crying.

His heart started beating so fast when he fastened his steps. He was literally running, leaving Ariana behind him when he finally opened the door and found his Gamma inside, holding his baby.

“What is this...” He stopped in his tracks when he witnessed what was happening before his eyes.

“Alpha.” The gamma approached him, but Liam raised his hand to stop him.

“Let me be,” Liam said. He didn’t want his gamma to approach him with the baby, he needed time to make up his mind to face this. “Stay where you are.”

The gamma looked confused, but he stood still in the middle of the room.
