Chapter Fifty-Three – Always disagree.Chris's POVI stopped moving along with him, his words replaying in my head. What did he mean by that? “Jake, you always make me misunderstood you.” I told him honestly. “Should I blame Your Silver? Could I stop her?” He paused his steps and swerved to face me. “Yes, those are the exact questions I asked.”And he knew he was being annoying? Jake Justin never changed, “You always make me misunderstand you.” “And why?” he smiled. “Because you can’t answer those questions?” I frowned, my fists were balling. We were outside the courtroom and I could see his warriors ahead. Would they be annoyed if I hit their Alpha’s brother? Was he insinuating I wouldn’t dare Your Silver? A rogue?“You always had a problem with me, didn’t you? And I wondered why?” I enquired, bitterly. He chuckled hysterically. “I can’t dare have problems with you, Alpha King. I only highly disagree with you and I’m honest about it.” I scoffed loudly. “Disagreeing and being h
Chapter Fifty-Four – Useless Lycan.Jaden’s POV Spies and Rogues. They were two groups I hated a lot. My hands crawled to the neck of the man and began strangling the life out of him. It was quite funny when the moon goddess gave me a rogue as a mate. Maybe it was because it wasn’t her destiny to be a rogue. The man fell lifeless, I kicked him and moved towards the other shaking man. Rihanna’s destiny was to be a Luna Queen, a powerful one just like the Silver Luna Queen, Chris’s grandmother. Have a kingdom that rule other packs, love happily without the pain of a broken love but knowing your mate valued you. That should have been her fate. I frowned as the shaking man moved back, I didn’t have all day. My claws came out and I slowly dragged the flesh off his skin, his screams were only melody to my thoughts. Rihanna being a broken yet powerful Alpha was admirable but steered off what her future was supposed to be like. She was deprived her chance to be a Silver Queen by a
Chapter Fifty-Five – Haughty Rihanna.Jaden’s POV When I arrived, I saw the carriage of the King outside the mansion where Rihanna and I had tea. Did she take him into her sitting room? My wolf let me take control and I tidied myself before strolling in. “Alpha Jaden!” it was Dara. I smiled at her and walked towards her. She walked faster and grabbed my hand, moving me away from the room. “Chris is in there. He’s asking for traditional olive oil and wolf bone to bless our land. Is it a thing he is to do or my Alpha?” she asked. My mind went back to my mother’s tales of new lands and pack and how they needed an Alpha to bless the land, an already existing Alpha. “It mustn’t be Chris to do it, but as her Alpha King, he could if he wanted to. Any already existing Alpha can do it.” I replied. “As I thought, Chris won’t be doing it!” she huffed, she then smiled and turned to me. “I forgot, thank you for saving my Alpha last time.” I shrugged. “It’s nothing, she owes me one.” The
Chapter Fifty-Six – Weird Guy. Rihanna’s POV I was still smiling ear to ear as I walked Chris back to his carriage. Jaden’s brag on Black Rose History was impressive. Black Hills had celebrated hundred years when Chris had turned eighteen a year before I did. Black Rose was the true Kingdom amongst us. “I wouldn’t be visiting here again, unless I have to.” Chris said, climbing his carriage. I flipped my hair back, exposing my face which I had been hiding behind my hair for scary effect. “You will have to.” I chuckled. I noticed his eyes lingered on my face and I scoffed. “What? Did you think I was beautiful when I laughed? That line is dead now.” “Just as Rihanna is. Before me is Your Silver, I was very well aware.” He replied. I shook my head. “If you console yourself with, Rihanna is dead, then fine. But her spirit will always haunt you, in form of Your Silver.” He slammed the door closed and I heard him sit angrily inside. A smile was etched to my face, knowing I displease
Chapter Fifty-Seven – Kids!Rihanna’s POVIt has been a month since my coronation and sealing of Silver Pack as one of the packs under Black Hills. Beatrice was back, weirdly and happily with a son. I haven’t gotten time to ask her where he’s from but he surely wasn’t hers. My pack was like a normal one. We decided to major in gold mining as we were very used to dark places due to our roguish nature. And Blue Bloom were solely majoring in fishery so we could as well steal their source of income. Everything was going smoothly well, I even got to chat with Ray for a minute at the coronation, he had been Chris’s representative. But Alpha Jaden had been acting weird since his last visit. He stayed for only few minutes during my coronation. Spoke only congratulatory words to me and left before any official saw us together. I mean, we weren’t doing anything wrong. Jake attended majority of his meetings and he never spoke of his brother. I doubt I’d be welcomed if I went there. I mus
Chapter Fifty-Eight – Thinking.Jaden’s POVI'd say I was more scared of leaving my mate alone in this world, than dying because I was her mate. Rihanna didn’t need to face another pain of losing a mate, especially if it will be caused by Chris again. A month ago, I visited Rihanna while she talked Chris. I couldn’t help but feel rage towards him seeing how he taunted my mate. When he left, I overheard him tell a warrior to alert him on whoever becomes Rihanna’s mate. I had become alert myself. What did he need such information for? Was he still interested in her? Then I overhead again that he’d need the man dead but would like to meet him first. He then ranted on about a prophecy he didn’t want to happen. Dara was big on prophecies so I wrote a letter to her and realized Rihanna was a key to a big prophecy, along with her mate. The moon goddess was really pushing buttons. Few years ago, I was the caged enclosed son of the Alpha. Now I struggled to get an Alpha position, I wa
Chapter Fifty-Nine – Visit to Red Moon.Jaden’s POVI wanted to rewind back the last twenty minutes when Jake didn’t know about Rih and I and the connection with Chris. We were currently on our way to Red Moon and I didn’t know what for. Ralph was riding with us, slowly at the back. “Why are we going to Red Moon again?” I asked Jake in mind link. I’ve been communicating with him through mind link since to prevent him from accidentally spilling more than he should. He was like a time bomb, that I knew. “We both know Red Moon and Black Hills are working together to diss Silver Pack. Why don’t we make Red Moon on our side?” he smirked. Why’d I expect such a ridiculous answer? I had known his words would be silly. I stopped my horse, Ralph got to me and stopped his too.“You just realized the reason we are heading to Red Moon isn’t worth it, right?” he asked, with a sigh, probably still sleepy as Jake woke him up. I nodded firmly. “Jake, let’s turn back now.”My younger brother kep
Chapter Sixty – His losses.Jaden’s POVSwapping of destinies were all the witches of Red Moon were known for. Swapping mates wasn’t in the list. But it’d make sense, after all your mate was a huge part of your future and destiny. Red Moon had treaded far. The Alpha was on the chair looking defeated.I needed the full story. If this was what Jake was holding on to blackmail them, it was good. “I understand why’d you send her to Red Moon but why as an Alpha’s mate?” I asked. If they wanted a spy, sending her there would be good enough. Why deceive their Alpha King to achieve that? “Minerva couldn’t bear be a Delta’s mate. She always wanted to be an Alpha’s mate.” He said exhilarating. Minerva was Chris’s mother. She couldn’t bear being a Delta’s mate? So she was a Delta’s mate? The current Luna was actually a Delta’s daughter. “Could you explain? You mean Alpha Wayne’s Delta was actually Minerva’s mate?” Ralph enquired. Red Moon’s Alpha nodded. “And we swapped his mate to be th
Chapter Two Hundred and Three – A wedding? (The End)Chris’s POV (A month later) The ink which I used to free Blue Bloom, Blue Fire and Silver Pack got stuck on my thumb. I don’t know if it would be infectious to a baby’s skin and I sure as hell wanted to hold him when he comes out. Those packs had been reallocated to Black Rose Kingdom, few days after their inauguration. I was free from them, it was time to focus on my own family. I would ask for nothing more. Vanessa sighted me, rushing to the room and held me back. “Wait, she’s still in labor!” What? I flung my hand in the air. “It’s been minutes already. Why isn’t she pushing…” “Shut up! She is trying!” Vanessa retorted. I calmed down, pacing around. “I don’t know why the boy doesn’t want to wait till my birthday so we’d celebrate together. It’s just two more days.” Vanessa muttered. I ignored her. I really needed my son out now. “Oh, did I tell you? I invited Rihanna and Jonah specially and they accepted. I thought Ri
Chapter Two Hundred and Two – Two Kings.Jaden’s POV Rihanna was in bed, I planted a kiss on her cheek before leaving the room. As I opened the doors I saw Beatrice and Dara, hands crossed staring at me. Did they see that? “Only if you tell me you guys are dating, will I not whoop your ass!” Dara pointed at me. They definitely saw that. “Even better, they are mates!” Chris said, walking to us. I smiled and brushed past Dara. Beatrice’s jaw dropped. “She didn’t tell us! Why didn’t she tell us! We should know this things!!” Dara’s fists clenched. “How dare she…” she stomped to the room but I jumped to stop her. Chris laughed, handing Beatrice a letter. “I drafted this now. Jaden, take the wheel, it’s all yours.” What was all mine? I successfully pushed Dara back and breathed a sigh of victory. Beatrice opened the letter and read it’s contents. “Wow. I will wait till my Alpha gets up before reacting to this.” I took the letter from her and viewed it. What? Chris was releasing
Chapter Two Hundred and One – Admit it.Jaden’s POV Logan exhaled, closing his eyes, “I wanted your energy for more than being immortal Rihanna.” Did he mean he needed her energy to remove his curse? He was being sketchy again. The Lycan glanced at Liam. “Deep down, I’d like the curse gone so I’d return to my family.” Liam blinked, looking down.“I believe the silver wolf energy can remove my curse, somehow.” Logan added. My face contorted to a scowl. “So she should let you absorb her energy?” Rihanna looked up at me with small pout. I knew she was unwilling, I was unwilling too. “Not necessarily.” Liam said. “Maybe she could use it to free him.” “Don’t forget I still don’t know how.” Rihanna cocked her head but it slowly straightened.“Yes, Red Moon! They'd know! If they can swap mates, they can speak to the moon goddess!” She yelped. But her excitement died down. “I don’t think I need them using sorcery on me though.” Liam’s hopeful expression faded. “So we are doomed? Gre
Chapter Two Hundred – The story.Rihanna’s POV Liam helped Logan sit up against a rock. The Lycan was healing but we still had time to get an answer then kill him for good. I still wasn’t sure how to remove the curse. Jaden noticed my hesitation. Liam was trying to wipe off the blood on Logan when Jaden held him. “Wait, Liam.” Jaden held his hand and pulled him up. “Before trying to get Logan to be alive, what’s the curse?” True. I needed to know what the curse was before ‘communing’ with the moon goddess. Liam pulled his hand away from Jaden’s, with a pout. “Well, this could be hard to hear.” I bet it wasn’t. Jaden had already heard the meanest of things this week. He had a straight face, glaring at Liam. “What?” “My mother said while Logan was Alpha King, he used to kidnap young female Lycans and use them for sex slaves.” Liam started. My body became cold. So his animalistic behaviors didn’t start now? “My mother added that then, her father hid her from him so she wouldn’
Chapter Hundred and Ninety-Nine – Tell the curse.Rihanna’s POV Awakening. It felt good. Lana had a distinct echo to her voice. And it was like she and I were both fighting Logan at the same time. I didn’t need to shift to wolf form to have her in control. Logan dodged Jaden’s blow and dashed to me. My right leg was before me and left leg behind. I awaited his contact. When he crashed on me, I went back but keeping my balance, holding his punch in place. My left leg came forward, sweeping Logan off his feet and my arms, used to block his punch, grabbed his neck and I tumbled him over. He grunted, having his back to the ground the fourth time in a row. The Lycan Slayer came sliding into his heart, by Jaden. He stabbed it deeply that it broke through the molten floor and was hooked there. A slap, with my clawed fingers, went through his face, reminding him not to try anything stupid. Jaden smirked. “Now, we’ve your undivided attention, do you care to explain your curse?” Bloo
Chapter Hundred and Ninety-Eight – His son.Chris’s POV How was I still alive? Logan had stabbed by stomach with his sword like claws and I fell on the ground with my back. I couldn’t move after that and only heard Jaden’s shouts. I wasn’t sure if he was yelling for me or his mate who Logan had tackled. My wolf healing must have really improved due to all those fights I have been having with Logan. The injuries on my sides burned but I felt the soothing relief washing over me as they healed. Energy drain waves were around me but I didn’t worry as no Lycan was close either.My mind replayed seeing Rihanna fall with her neck. There was no way she could have died despite that being a fatal position. And Jaden was weakened to a fault and I knew Logan would use that avenue to kill him.My legs were losing their sensory nerves as my energy left my body. I groaned, trying to move them. Before I went to challenge Logan, I told Lucius to watch me so it was just a matter of time before
Chapter Hundred and Ninety-Seven – Awakened.Jaden’s POV My heart was growing cold. I touched Rihanna’s face but I didn’t feel the sparks I usually do. What was happening? I slowly turned to Chris who was challenging Logan. He had good sword art and was mad at Logan. He must have seen what he did to Rihanna. I wanted to fight for my mate alongside him but my body felt involuntary. I lost all drive to do anything. If this was how it’d end then I could end as well. My father killed my Beta and my mate. Was they any use living like this? But at that moment, she moved.I was sure it wasn’t my eyes deceiving me. “Rihanna?” I called again. Using my wolf vision, I scanned her body and found that she was healing. I wanted to hug her in happiness. “Argghh!” Chris screamed and the Lycan Slayer fell before me. I snapped my head at him and he was at the mercy of Logan. “No!” I ran towards them but dust from the earth was thrown at me and when they settled, there was no Chris and no Log
Chapter Hundred and Ninety-Six – Hesitant.Jaden’s POVIt must have been Rihanna’s shout of pain that attracted Chris to come close to where we are. I noticed him but before I could warn him, he tripped over a charm laying about. Direct contact with the object made him lose his balance. Energy had been taken from his legs. “Argh! I can’t move!” he screamed. It temporarily paralyzed him? I had speculations of that happening. “Chris, hold on!” But Logan came before me and sent a punch my way. I dodged it by bending but my mate caught his hand and twisted it. I escaped to Chris. Rihanna dragged Logan’s hand behind him but he hit her with his head and she let go of him. Her legs went to his head but he blocked it and slapped her higher thighs. She backed away, holding her legs and wearing a scowl. That was a violation on her mate! A sexual harassment if I should say! I left Chris and charged back to him. With my sides, I pushed him towards a boulder and he broke into it. “Don’t
Chapter Hundred and Ninety-Five – Adapting.Rihanna’s POV Logan’s energy left the barn, I became alarmed. I read that they were still eight wolfs inside, the last one life’s hanging on a thread. “Jaden, we need to save the Blue Bloom Beta before he dies.” I reminded. A wave hit my barrier as I got closer. “Rih, the energy drain is active.” Jaden told me. I was ahead of him as my barrier was already active. He found the charm and smashed it on a rock, breaking it to pieces.I advanced to the barn and kicked it open. Since Logan wasn’t around, they were safe. I released my barrier and stretched my hand to the only female in the group. “I am Alpha Rihanna, I believe you’re the Luna?”She had a scared expression on her face and her hands shivered. Logan wasn’t around so why was she scared? Jaden carried the Beta and rushed out. He was safe and it made me feel better. The Luna took my stretched out hand, and stood from where she sat. The moment she did, I felt a insurmountable am
