You Rejected A Silver Wolf

Chapter Hundred and Twenty-Eight - What he seeks.

Chris's POV

Leave the best for the last, they say.

The last three rogues were hectic. Either about breaking Delta rank or heavily skilled warriors.

I caught one's leg and dragged my claws down to his ankle. He fell to the ground, then pulled himself away from me.

The other two tackled, head-butted, and gut-punched, but I dodged it all.

I kicked the other, and he fell on his partner. I was losing strength, but I braced myself for another fight.

They were getting up.noveldrama

"You should leave. I feel strong energy, Logan!" my wolf warned.

I looked down at my hands, wondering what to do when I realized I hadn't used the grenades.

The poisonous gas was a huge fail, nearly killed me. I picked two of the grenades and ran to the door.

As the two rogues chased me, I threw them at them and watched them blow up. Horrifying.

Some grunts came from inside the cave, while Logan's energy grew stronger. Was I to run or finish my mission?

"Run!" my wolf barked.

I blocked him out. I wasn't going to run because of Logan and risk another attack on my pack.

I walked back inside the cave, holding a sword of a dead rogue. The last rogue, who was already disabled, had an easier death.

I slashed his head in one go, sending him to the Moon goddess quickly.

My wolf warned me of Logan's energy getting closer, but I rested on the cave wall, awaiting him. "We needed to talk."

In my hands were two grenades. He showed up, dressed in a white tunic. He snarled seeing me. "I knew it would be you. I smelled you from far off."

"Same with me. And I brought gifts," I smirked, then flung the grenades in his direction.

His eyes widened, and he was fast to miss them, but not completely. The explosion made him hit his head on a nearby rock. He bled slowly.

But a smile crept to his face. "You weakened me so I wouldn't fight you. I guess I'm going to just chat with you also, then leave."

Also? "Sadly, it seems so. But you'd die when we meet again," I promised.

"Hmm. Same thing Rihanna said," he laughed. "You two would have been a really good pair."

I frowned. Did he meet Your Silver recently?

"I've been staying at Boots and Rivers market, and have been getting good gossip. Your Silver was your mate!" he declared.

I didn't think that market would tolerate vices like gossiping. What did I expect? It was filled with females.

"Emphasis on 'was'. And that's not your business. Tell me, what's your reason for all these attacks?" I changed the topic.

"I want to. Don't you see?" he paced around. "I do as I please, I'm a lonely Alpha Lycan King with nothing to do..."

"Stop those lies! You're being strategic, wasting your strength, making alliances, all because you want to? Nonsense!" I roared.

I needed the answers, and I needed them now.

His forehead creased, his eyes darkened on me. "Then why, Chris? Why do you think I do all these?"

I had given it lots of thought. But the only thing I could come up with was revenge. I didn't know to whom or why.

"Revenge," I deadpanned.

There was a change in his facial expressions. He looked away, his fists clenching. "Revenge?"

Was I wrong? "Is it more than that? It's surely not expanding your kingdom. You have no family. So perhaps revenge."

"To whom then?" he asked for me to answer.

He was who should answer.

"You have a past with the Black Rose Alpha..."

"Oh, forget that, my past with her has nothing to do with these. I settled her, or she'd

never let me go. I am here for something more," he chuckled.

He held no grudge with Black Rose and settled with their Alpha? That woman never spoke of that. Now he needed something more?

I decided to ask, hoping he'd answer. "What's that more?"

His hands clasped together. "Power!"

Power? Who was he kidding? "As I said, you have no kingdom to expand. No children to inherit anything, so why?"

"Power for myself! Immortality for myself!! Complete dominance for myself!!!"

The way he said it, like a maniac at the brink of total madness, I had to believe it; those were his reasons. His selfish reasons.

"Immortality is impossible," I countered. "You may never find what you seek."

And how would killing wolves and raiding packs give immortality?

He glared at me, marching to harm me, but I threw another grenade at him. He dodged it but fell against a tree.

The explosion gave him almost the same effect as a silver wolf's barrier.

"And you can't get complete dominance. You'll never be able to have everyone under your feet!"

"And who said I want them under my feet!" he barked. "I don't want to lord over you all!"

Didn't he just say complete dominance? Or wasn't it in the way I imagined?

"I want all you werewolves dead! No single one to walk the earth! Complete

dominance is when you all are dead. And I was close... very close."

He's insane. All werewolves dead had been his plan?

It made sense. He hated werewolves and killed his pack when they wanted to live like

that.

"If I had gotten Rihanna's trust, I'd use her to kill you. Jaden, I've a way around him, his

wolf was psycho. Then I'd be very close..." he chortled.

Rihanna was to be used against me? My wolf made a confirming grunt.

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.com,

you might be missing out on the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free!

Perhaps, Logan would have used her hatred for me to kill me.

"You didn't succeed, you'd never," I pointed at him. "Now, we are against you together, and we'd get you..."

"Not if I get you first," he tilted his head. "If I get your little silver wolf, then I'd be a step closer. I'd have my power."

"No matter how much you torture her, she'd never yield and let you use her to kill other werewolves," I was sure of that.

"Who said anything about torturing her? No, I need her at full strength. I need her energy!" he broke into a guffaw of laughter.

A silver wolf's energy? He could take it?

"I found charms, even better than the blindness charm I did on you, at Boots and

Rivers market. I can take her energy for myself," he bragged.

"No way." There was no such thing.

"Indeed," he smirked. "Silver wolves were more in touch with energy than other wolves, so easy."

"I'm glad I waited till she's Alpha. When she'd attack again, I'd grab it, so better keep

her away."

My fists clenched. If we kept Rihanna from him, how would we challenge Logan?

She was literally the Silver Wolf meant to defeat him. Or was this another way to keep

us scared of releasing her, then he'd defeat us?

I had to accept, she was a good plus to the fight.

"I know one thing, the Moon goddess will never let you wipe all her children away. Not

in this land or the others," I took out another grenade.

He went backwards and barked. "You'd see! And to hell with the Moon goddess!"

I grabbed all the grenades; this will be big, as I have to use his distraction to leave. "We'd see!"

They all flew at him as I sped off.

Explosions were behind me. I hoped he didn't survive, but somehow I knew he did.

Knowing his intentions didn't bring peace to me. He's still a delusional Lycan, only more dangerous than I thought.
