Chapter Thirty-Nine – Accepted Only Now.Chris POVYour Silver owes me one! Ray knelt below me, heads down. I’ve never felt so much rage against him! How could he be late to save Beta Gaius!! Sasha held unto my balled fists and I pushed her away, she rolled to the ground where Ray was but he didn’t say a word. “Chris! Stop! It isn’t Ray’s or Sasha’s fault Beta Gaius died. It serves him right, actually. Didn’t he escape prison?” Vanessa barked at me. She didn’t understand, none of them did. Your Silver was the real enemy here not me. “Beta Ray, you are sure you didn’t meet that silver wolf. We really need to clip his wings now!” I barked. “Your Silver only defended himself. Beta Gaius must have attacked him first.” Ray replied. My Delta sighed. “Are you siding with a rogue who killed a Beta of an ally pack?” he glared at Ray. When Ray met his gaze he looked down. “And you didn’t meet Your Silver? None of you did?” I pointed at the warrior besides Ray, she looked down but said n
Chapter Forty – Regret and Guilt. Rihanna’s POV I felt power surge through my bones. An incredible amount of power. Beta Gaius was a good kill. Camilla knocked on the door twice signifying that all the warriors were asleep. I didn’t need her to remind me though. Since I woke from consciousness, I could feel every wolf around me by their unique energy. And another perk of a silver wolf got unlocked, cos my eyes were white when I awoke and Lana was in full control. Like it was her god mode. “Ray found us.” She whispered to me. My eyes opened, they had been shut since as I was focusing on fully recovering. “What do you mean?” I wouldn’t know if he did. All I knew was Camilla brought me back to the pack. Had my brother seen me? How? “He was chasing after Beta Gaius with a warrior. You know her, Cara. That girl you don’t like.” She snickered. Fond memories filtered into my head. Caramel. She was the lead warrior’s daughter and had a crush on Ray for the longest time. I di
Chapter Forty-One – Very impressive.Jaden’s POVI felt my mate. She was the surely the one. Perhaps the scout had come to check on what the guests looked like and ran back. She was faraway but with my Alpha abilities I sensed her. But she could have sensed me too. I felt almost broken that she didn’t. Jake knocked on my room door. I didn’t even know how to tell him the reason I’ve been throwing a tantrum recently. But what news did he have to tell me? I was aware Beta Gaius was dead. I am stunned Your Silver would defeat a Beta while injured. It made me have more questions to ask Jonah, but with my present temperament, I didn’t want to engage him to avoid overreacting. Jake knocked again and opened before I replied. “Are you okay?” he asked the dreaded question.“Yeah, I’m good.” I lied, getting off my bed. Sweat fell from my forehead to my thighs like water droplets. “Ralph told me how you acted when Dan met you. He’s still a kid, he had reacted that way to the girl before th
Chapter Forty-Two – Barks at the King.Jaden’s POV I felt déjà vu walking into Black Hills palace. A certain maid brushed past me, bowed and left. It was the same like when I visited Black Hills for the first time. She was blonde and small. Perhaps Your Silver’s spy Jonah had met. The girl wasn’t very inconspicuous, it’s just Chris never suspected. I respected all the girls walking with Your Silver. Like a group of pained young girls that where making a mark for themselves. I eagerly wanted to know what Your Silver wanted with this meeting of today. Ralph returned to me, along with Jake, and we began walking into the courtroom. “No Alpha has arrived yet.” Jake told me in mind link. “I think they are still offended at Chris because of Betas Gaius’s death.” Seriously? My wolf eye rolled. Chris had the Beta imprisoned but he ran away and met Your Silver and his death. It was no one’s fault but his. Either ways, they’d still have to appear before their Alpha King, they had no ch
Chapter Forty-Three – Exciting Drama.Jaden’s POV The King’s eyes dilated and he looked for the words to reply with. “What did that have to do with Your Silver?” Ralph nodded and stared at Ray like he’s trying to read him. We all stared at Ray, expecting what Your Silver had to do with his sister. “Did any of you know Rihanna was a silver wolf?” Ray pointed at each of us. “Did you? And since you kill her, do you want to kill another?” Ray pointed at Chris. My mouth fell. His sister was a silver wolf? My head snapped to Chris, who rose from his seat. “Rihanna was a silver wolf?” he raised his voice, his breathing became uneven. “My mate was a silver wolf?” he asked that part to himself. “Should I be warning you about killing silver wolfs when your grandmother was one?” He slapped his hands together. “Your grandfather stopped the killing of silver wolfs and here you are, trying to start it again!” Ray was fuming. “Well, not with my permission!” he finalized, and sat down calml
Chapter Forty-Four – Don’t Rih me.Rihanna’s POVAn Alpha being my mate was commendable. But I am on my way to being an Alpha myself. So… I’d pass. I figured Alpha Jaden was my mate, when I came close to the courtroom and sniffed him.I knew his scent, just it was mingled with a sweeter scent. Lana was excited, I wasn’t. I made Ray leave so the connection will be broken, I didn’t want him to distract me. He alone should catch my scent. Chris turned to Alpha Jaden as I winked at him, was he being jealous? He shouldn’t, we were over! And no relationship was starting though. “No!” he replied. I smirked, snapping my fingers and my warriors stationed the buckets around the Alphas, except Black Rose. They were my allies. “In ten minutes, all those Alphas will have their insides melted out. In one minute, you can sign that and give my pack all rights a pack have.” I took a step closer to me. “Chris, in case you didn’t hear what this guard said.” I pointed at the guard who had a knife
Chapter Forty-Five – His outburst.Jaden’s POV It’s been a week since Rihanna’s demeaning visit to Black Hills. None of the Alphas dared speak about it due to shame of defeat. Also, speaking of it will cause a riot with Silver Pack. Great amount of slaves had deployed to Silver Pack to help rebuild and stay. As an ally, I sent Jake, with some warriors, to help her map out her pack house. Her pack, within a week, had amassed greater size than Blue Fire Pack, even if Blue Fire had been the smallest pack since the times. Rumors had it that Blue Fire and Blue Bloom had been contemplating combining under one name to avoid being overthrown by Silver Pack. That young lady was gaining respect and striking fears in Alphas, but not me. I’d support her, as mate and co-alpha. “Mate? Tsk.” My wolf sighed. It was hard for him to be ignored by his mate so he acted like she wasn’t his mate. But I’ve suffered being ignored countless times and wouldn’t mind waiting a while for my own soulmate.
Chapter Forty-Six – Visit to Mate.Jaden’s POVThat was definitely no way to treat your mate.I ignored them both and sped deeper into the forest. She knew I meant no harm but was being mean as she wanted to falter the mate bond.Well, I wouldn’t be letting that happen. She sped after me but lost me in seconds. She should know I was trained in forests like this. “Are you playing a hide and seek game with our mate?” my wolf sighed. “It’s a couples thing.” I replied. “Except we aren’t a couple.” He sniffed. “Right.” I diverted back to her pack but she cornered me immediately, growling. No way, she was definitely in a bad mood. I let her lead me to the pack and she left to let me change, I wouldn’t mind her staying.When I came out she was in her human form as well. “Jake isn’t here.” She said as I came closer.I froze. “But I sent him here.” “And I sent him back.” she turned to me, those dark eyes piercing into my eyes and doing weird things to me. “Why?” I managed to say, to hi
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
