Chapter Hundred-Two – Dead girl.
Chris POV
A dead girl in the middle of the forest.
It might not be Logan, as purposeless as he seemed, killing a ‘girl’ like that would be useless.
I’ve never seen Edwin cry before, so this ‘girl’ was an interest to me. Wait, was she his mate?
“If he did, will he be in tears?” Zeke sighed at my thoughts.
Then I remembered that she was ‘dead girl’. Did he find his mate then realize she was dead?
My wolf went aback. “That’s true. That’s enough to make his heart not take it.”
Meanwhile, I found Edwin’s energy getting closer and ran towards him.
There was no other energy with him, so he was really coming with a dead girl.
I saw him, a girl in his arms, or should I say corpse, rotting corpse.
The body had been dead for long, then how’d he know it was his mate? Unless that’s not why he was broken.
“Okay, who is she, Edwin?” I was tired of speculating.
He sighed, rubbing his red eyes. “She’s the servant that Sasha goes around with. If she’s here and dead, then my sister…”
He trailed off, gulping down saliva. Everything finally made sense. My wolf sighed in relief.
She wasn’t his mate but the servant Vanessa said got missing along with Sasha.
I patted his shoulders to console him. “Your sister will be okay. Don’t worry. The girl seemed to have died from… I’m not sure.”
If she was around Silver Pack, then was Sasha brought around here? It’d add up with the residue found on the horsetail.
Your Silver needed to answer this. And now that someone was dead, the culprit would die!
I watched Edwin bury the servant and we headed back to Black Hills, hoping no more reports waited.
My heart also prayed Your Silver and Jaden were successful. It’d be like a couple reunion when they’d meet at Blue Bloom and Blue Fire.
I wasn’t sure if I felt jealous, but the thought irked me. Edwin was walking with sloppy shoulders so I slapped his arm.
He held it, shooting daggers at me, from his eyes. “What was that for?”
“A warning that you’re not allowed to infect me with negativity, there’s a lot going around. Can’t someone be happy around here?” I responded.
He sighed. “Should we be heading to Black Hills? We made sure if Logan stop by, Ray is there to handle him. Let’s find Sasha. Okay?”
If Logan meets Your Silver and Jaden, he’d not come to Black Hills cause he wouldn’t be able to.
And if he did come to Black Hills, I’d like to be the one to meet him. I certainly can’t bear him hurting Ray again, or the warriors.
But for now, I had to deal with my Delta. “Edwin, where’d we find Sasha? We saw just saw a dead servant but it’s no guarantee she’s around.”
Dara was a lead warrior, if she wanted to hide a Luna Queen, she’d do it well.
That servant’s corpse being in the open was a slipup because she cared less.
Also, she might not have caused it. The servant was new to this environment so might have died from hunger after getting lost.
But Edwin needed an answer, or he’d sulk all the way to Black Hills. “Where should we drop by to search then?”
His face lit up and he turned back to the miles we’ve covered. “My wolf had picked up energy east of that wing. Let’s check it.”
Of course, let’s go see who the random energy, in the midst of an abandoned forest where a Lycan recently raided, was. Very safe.
He began strolling back with determined steps.
I breathed in and out, then followed.
We got close to the energy and I swore that it grew stronger the more we came closer.
Edwin became less enthusiastic about it, sensing it’d be dangerous. “Alpha, you take the lead.”
He literally pushed me before him, wasn’t he the one wanting to check? We heard silent grunts from a distance.
Like unsteady breathes and struggling coughs. Who ever this wolf was, it injured at the throat or stomach or both.
“Stay here.” I mind linked Edwin.
Seeing I was mind linking when we were near, he understood that he wasn’t to make a sound. He rested on a tree, heaving silently.
I crawled slowly, towards a mud mount. Peeking from above it, my eyes landed on a beast, laying back. His chest going up and down.
My head went down quickly, then a smirk crawled to my face.
Logan! Injured and vulnerable.
“Edwin, don’t make a sound. You just found Logan for me.” I told him.
I saw him snap his head at my direction, with widened eyes. “Logan?” he mind linked. “What the frack! Should you take him on?”
I wasn’t sure. It had been finalized that taking Logan down, needed more than one Alpha wolf.
“Stay there. Whatever Your Silver or Jaden did to him, he hasn’t recovered from it. Either I add to it, or end him.” I replied, feeling confident.
My claws crept from their place as I advanced towards Logan. His breathing hitched, showing he was aware of my presence.
He struggled to get up.
“Just stay down, Logan.” I said, as I sped and hit him on the stomach. He groaned, falling back to the ground.
He had his skin broken in many places, claw marks on his stomach and a fracture on his head. My wolf’s vision saw that.
I stooped low at him, my claws tracing his chin.
In one zap, they ran through his face, modelling the scar he caused on me. He howled in pain. An injury caused by an Alpha wolf rarely faded.
He tried to rise but my leg on him, stopped him. He was weak and had used his strength. I chuckled. “You are about to die now.”
He began muttering. “If you kill me, you’d never know what happens to your Silver Wolf.”
My hands froze. What did he mean? Did he have her? I scoffed. “You’re bluffing, aren’t you?” I held his head tightly.
“Where you trying to make a good bluff before you died?” my claws dug deep into his chest.
His jaw was clenched and his teeth gritted. My claws were half way inside him, when I heard a scream that distracted me. It was from Edwin.
Logan, using all his might, pushed me away with his leg. But my claws, drew a mark on his chest as my claws forcefully left his head.
“Edwin!” I tried to contact him.
Logan disappeared before I rose up. Edwin! I ran to him, he was on the ground, panting. “I swear, I swear, I saw a demon now!”
I looked around but my eyes caught nothing scary, only dead. Was he serious right now? It was only a dead squirrel between his legs!
