You Rejected A Silver Wolf

Chapter Hundred and Sixty-Four - Shock Waves

Jaden's POV

Either I had gotten stronger, or my wolf was pumping a ridiculous amount of energy into me, and I'd soon run out of it.

I punched Logan's side, and his claws on my arm loosened.

With a heavy groan, I headbutted him, and he staggered back.

It bought me time to pull Chris up. He wiped off the blood on his lips, still holding onto his side.

He had taken a hit for the hostages, and it would soon take a toll on him. "Camilla could take you and the hostages back to Silver Pack."

He frowned, shoving my arms away. "How'd I leave only you here with him? Let's end it now."

But he might not survive if he kept taking hits. He had already taken two for me. "It's my duty to protect you, Chris..."

"And I, to you," he retorted. "Stay behind me and reserve your energy!" he ordered, charging at Logan.

I glanced at the injury on my shoulder and the new ones on my arms. They didn't matter to me anymore.

Finding Ralph and getting Chris out of here mattered more. I tried to sense my Beta again, but he was still out of my reach.

He might be unconscious, so I'd have to get Logan to tell me.

"Argh!" Chris growled in pain, and the stench of blood hit my nose.

"No!" I yelled and flew at Logan, tackling him to the ground.

He hadn't expected the swift attack, so I used it to my advantage, tearing and scratching his chest.

But he recovered quickly and threw me away from him. My leg hit a tree, sending shock waves down my spine.

I looked up at Chris. He was breathing slowly. His neck had been brutally mutilated, but he'd live if he got help within ten minutes.

Logan was marching toward him. "If I kill your Alpha King, your kingdom will surrender, right?"

I struggled to get off the ground. I slapped it in anger. "Let him be and face me! And where's my Beta?"

Logan turned to me with his bloodied face. "Somewhere safe, don't worry. You won't be having him back."noveldrama

I scowled, frustrated at my weakness. I couldn't even shift.

Before Logan could pick up Chris, someone jumped in front of me. I blinked furiously, trying to make out the figure's physique.

The next thing I saw was Logan flying miles away from Chris and landing on his back.

A sensation flooded my body. The failure and downcast feeling I'd been experiencing slowly seeped away. That's when I realized-my mate was here.

I let my body fall. My wolf also came close to the surface.

"Logan!" I heard Rihanna yell. "You've been causing trouble again!"

Could she just kill him instead of scolding him?

I sensed a familiar energy rush to Chris and then to me. "Alpha, are you alright?"

He helped me sit up and rubbed my face. "Can you see me? It's me!"

It was Jonah.

What was he doing here? Had he brought my mother, or had he not gone at all?

I was about to ask when he took a pain-relieving pill and forced it into my mouth. He rushed to Chris and did the same.

I heard Logan writhe in pain, but I couldn't see what Rihanna was doing to him. I did hear sword slashing.

"I found her at Sun Burn Prince Kingdom and told her Logan took Ralph, so she returned with me," Jonah reported, helping me stand.

I forced myself back to the ground. "Take Chris and leave. I'll stay with Rihanna. Also, I haven't found Ralph yet."

He stared at me and my injuries cautiously, unwilling to leave. "But can you walk?"

My body would let me walk with the newfound hope I had, so I nodded. "Yes, I can walk. Go!"

He dropped me and helped Chris up. The Alpha King had lost a lot of strength and blood-he needed care before me. Jonah sped off with him.

I exhaled deeply, readying myself to stand on my own. The shock waves were still going on, and it felt like my body was shifting and changing.

I couldn't shift, and my wolf was distant again.

The last time I felt this way was during my first shift, except the shock waves had happened after I'd shifted.

I couldn't place my body's reaction.

"You can't kill me today!" Logan said.

My mate was supporting herself with her sword, her face scarred by Logan.

I pushed myself up and sped to her using my energy.

"I'm good, Alpha." She took my hand away from her face and stood straight.

She raised her sword. "This sword just killed a Lycan at Sun Burn Kingdom. No matter

how long it takes, it will kill you too!"

Logan snarled, taking steps back and holding his bleeding neck.

He threw a rock at us, and Rihanna dodged it with me.

The Lycan sped off after the distraction.

I tried to run after him, but Rihanna pulled me back.

"Let's find Ralph. I sensed him on the other side of the volcano." She let go of me and

began running back.

My body couldn't support itself, and I crouched down.

Where was my wolf when I needed him?

Were we letting Logan go again?

He'd survive to fight us again and perhaps stronger. I couldn't bear to fight him again.

She said she sensed Ralph on the other side of the volcano, but why couldn't I? Even if

he was unconscious, I should've been able to tell where he was.

"Jaden!" Rihanna shouted from the other side.

I snapped my head up, leaving my crouching position. "Are you alright?" I asked.

My body wasn't cooperating with me.

While I took a step at a time to get to Rihanna, she returned to me and then sped me to the other side.

I sighed once I balanced on one leg, then looked up.

My eyes bulged out of my skin, and veins flooded my neck.

Rihanna sniffed, falling to the ground. "No, no, it can't be. It just can't be."

"Ralph?" I called, but he wasn't saying anything. Did he want me scolding him again?

I ran to him and dragged him off the stake he was tied to.

His body was cold, and I still couldn't connect to his mind link.

"Ralph, I'm calling you!" I yelled, refusing to accept the realization before me.

A darkness was forming in my heart, and I wouldn't even fight it.

The shock waves in my body moved with agility, but I didn't feel the mounting pain—

only anger.

"Ralph, answer me!" I shook his body, but it was only... lifeless.

Logan killed him?

Logan had killed my Beta?
