Chapter Sixty-One – Visiting the Luna.Rihanna’s POV I had seen claw marks on the trees around my pack. It could be the Lycan pacing around my forest. Wasn’t he supposed to be at Black Hills? I tugged at the warrior who was shackled hands and feet, to move faster. I didn’t have all day. I went past the forest of Silver Pack and headed towards Black Hills palace, through the hidden road.“How do you guys know about this path? Surely this place will be locked when you release me?” the warrior scoffed. I shook my head internally, this warrior didn’t know he was in my kill list. He played Greta and was spying on my pack and thought he’d live? I threw him on the ground, in front of the guards protecting the palace. They all ran down to me, unsheathing their swords. “Hold your horses. I came to see your Luna, I have message that she wanted to see me.” I said to them, my claws out of their place. I was hesitant to hurt them because they were warriors under Cara, my brother’s mate. The
Chapter Sixty-Two – Typical Chris.Rihanna’s POVVanessa returned to stand in front of me, her eyes were dark and resembled her brother’s. That point was the only time they looked alike. “You won’t ever be Luna Queen, while I am alive.” She seethed. I was a tad confused then I got it that having a mate as Alpha King meant I’d be Luna Queen.Wasn’t that a demotion from being Alpha to Luna Queen? “And who needs you alive?” I asked Vanessa, tauntingly. “Don’t cross your limit, Rihanna! That prophecy was made up by mad people. Anybody’s destiny can be changed!” The Luna yelled. My eyes were glued to Chris’s. The way he was quiet yet thinking on the worst things to do to me were hilarious. I could see through him. “My destiny isn’t yours to change. The moon goddess can only plan my destiny but I’d be the one to forge it.” I said, not looking at her. “You know apart from having a mate who’d be Alpha King, I am also key to stopping a greater evil. We should worry about that.” I added.
Chapter Sixty-Three – Uncles.Jaden’s POVThe Luna Queen hadn’t been found and there’s a new presence amongst the forest, one lurking in the shadows and stalking packs. Dara had informed me that there were claw marks on their trees but no warrior had been hurt. Same with my pack. My lead warrior said something similar of the roses being cut off and scattered. Ralph was triggered and ordered his brother and his men to guard the entrance, I wondered how they did. They were wild men but if they could kill whatever was causing unknown fear amongst the farmers, then good. I bounced the ping-pong on the wall again and it flew back to my face. I sighed. “Has someone seen it already?” I asked the workers. A red haired girl popped her head from the book shelves. “No, Alpha. Give us a minute.” How many minutes will I be given? I folded my arms and looked to the ceiling. Rumors of another prophecy had surfaced and I was bent of knowing what it was and not hearing it from another source.
Chapter Sixty-Four – Triggered.Jaden’s POV My uncles had gotten experience. Together with my mother, they had ruled the pack. The eldest had been her Beta, the middle her Delta, while the youngest her warrior. They only shifted the positions, after I was born. So if they said they sensed a Lycan, they bloody did. Right now, they were on and on about their adventures and brave travels. I used to enjoy their stories when they told Jake, but as they never cared to tell me, I ignored it. Now, they were bragging to Jonah about them. “How close did you sense it to be?” I asked, interrupting them. The middle uncle smirked. “Why, you don’t trust us?” “I do. There has been rumor in our kingdom, I just need to know where you sensed it.” I replied calmly. His furrowed eyebrows straightened. “Miles away and it had bad energy. It might have been close but only for a while.” If that’s so, then it might not have came on a mission but was still searching for his victim. But he suspected Sil
Chapter Sixty-Five – He knows.Jaden’s POV Harpoons? On my mate? I wanted to bark at him but then held myself as one, he wasn’t the one at fault and two, I shouldn’t have such reaction. Rihanna was just am ally, it’d be confusing if I showed a sentimental reaction. My hands, which were behind me were balled to a rock and I twisted my arms so they’d stay at that place. Ralph backed out slowly. Calmly, I nodded. “So she came visiting and was met with crazy harpoons… she’d never visit again.” And if I visited, I’d be met with an angry silver wolf. I blanked off thinking about it, and hoping she’d be okay. Ralph’s voice broke my thoughts. “I’m very sorry, I’d make it up to you, I promise. My brother said she had put up a fight so he assumed she was dangerous.” That was a typical Rihanna, putting up fights. And how dare he try to kill a silver wolf? Or wasn’t she in wolf form? “She was in wolf form but he didn’t think she’d be anything special as she was coming from Black Hills.”
Chapter Sixty-Six – Cooperating.Chris’s POV Your Silver has haunted me since her coming here. A Lycan around her pack? What other Lycan than the one I was looking at now? I raised the torchlight to see his face, he was laying face down, always tired. He was breathing heavily as he just eaten. My warriors treated him like a pet, and he surely acted like one. I dropped the torch at the holder and attempted walking away. Suddenly, the Lycan growled halting me. It had authority and commanded obedience, my legs froze had frozen at the sound. He had never shifted to his human form so there was no way to talk to him. Though I was aware Lycans could communicate verbally in wolf form. This one was just stubborn. “Do you want to say something? How many of your kinds are out there?” I folded my arms. A chuckle erupted from him, it made the fire on the touch flicker. At least, that was a reaction, not an ideal one but it was something. He had never given a reaction before. “Would you ans
Chapter Sixty-Seven – Banter.Chris’s POV The prophecy must have been mistaken. I was the one who should have been the Silver wolf’s mate. I agreed I flopped it and may never get another chance so it’d stay flopped but with me as Alpha King. Your Silver will fulfill her destiny but no presence of any new mate, unless till later. That was all the mercy I could give. “I have it all under control Zeke.” I told my wolf as he kept on murmuring on and on about cooperating with the Lycan. “And spare me the toxicity, I just lost my mother to some evil conspiracy plan and my heir is missing…” I added. He murmured out loud “Then don’t you think somehow this is the moon goddess punishing all those evil doings…” “Okay, I’m done!” I barked out loud, shutting him up. “What ever the hell I wanna do, I do.” I had looked like a mad man yelling at nothing in particular to my warriors guarding the prison. Thankfully they weren’t even looking at me. Zeke sighed then went behind my head, being ca
Chapter Sixty-Eight – Dramatic.Rihanna’s POV“Alpha, he’s here.” Dara told me as I dragged the horse back to it’s stable. The horse was really strong to drain so much strength from me. “Yeah sure.” I replied, staring at the horse. It was a surprising gift from Red Moon to me saying they accepted my pack. I don’t give a damn, they couldn’t do anything about it and it was suspicious how they were nice to me suddenly.The horse they sent must have been too much trouble for them so they sent it to me so I’d suffer.I was suffering having bruises here and there. I double checked to be sure the horse wasn’t some kind of spy, maybe Red Moon figured a sorcery that could turn a warrior to a horse. After all they had a history with witches. “Alpha!” Dara called again, snapping me from my ridiculous thoughts. I sighed, leaving the stables. “Alpha Jaden must have rushed to give an apology. Honestly I needed it.” I rubbed my temples. Dara smiled. “Act dramatic so he’d feel guilty.” Really
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
