Chapter Hundred and Forty-Seven – Regretting.
Chris’s POV
I barely slept yesterday’s night.
Sasha had gotten miscarriages more times than I could count. I really hoped this wasn’t one.
I had placed so much hopes on my unborn child that it would kill me if he didn’t survive his mother’s carelessness.
Why would she be trying to beat up a maid when she was pregnant? She didn’t have the strength she used to!
And what had the maid done? She made her bathing water room temperature and not boiling hot like she wanted.
Wasn’t that considerate of the maid? But my Luna termed it disobedience. What was with her!
She was lucky she accidentally fell down the stairs while chasing the maid, and not through a window, that could have killed her… and my son!
I pushed thoughts of my Luna aside and worried about her brother. Edwin was feeling better already but still boiling to kill that kid.
Looks could really be deceiving. What exactly did that boy want from our part of the world?
I could tell he wasn’t from around here, with his accent.
His accent subtly resembled Logan’s, and it worried me because they were both Lycans.
Could it be a Lycan from Logan’s pack? Then he should mean harm.
The emptiness of my courtroom wasn’t giving me the comfort I wanted, only unsettling peace.
“Ray, is there any news on Logan?”
I sensed he was nearby, he replied. “No, the warriors are still there. They don’t even think he stays there anymore. No single sign of him.”
I exhaled, where could this Lycan be at?
How were we to go ahead with Your Silver’s plan if we didn’t know where the Lycan was?
Jumping from my throne, I nodded my head at the idea that just creeped in. Why not go visit her since I needed answers!
This time we both could go after Logan ourselves. She’d be a good complement to me.
“A good complement to you?”
“Not in the way your twisted mind is thinking.” I retorted at Zeke, my wolf.
He was always thinking far in all these things. Basically, he misunderstood anything I said about Your Silver.
“You shouldn’t have made her Alpha, now there was a reason for her to be close to you when you should be healing.” He said again.
Healing? From what exactly?
“It’s been three years since we rejected each other. Don’t forget she accepted the rejection. She didn’t want me also.” I reminded.
It kinda hurt thinking about it.
“You know she was only being strong and prideful like she is. And you never healed, you only regretted, you’re still regretting.”
And so what if I regretted and still regretting? It makes no change? She’s not mine and can never be. I should mourn what I lost.
“I know I can never get a second chance. Is it a crime to wish for things you lost?” I asked.
“Yes, wish for things but not things you lost by yourself.” Zeke finalized. “Move on.”
Easy for him to say. He wasn’t the one dealing with his silly replacement Luna.
I swung the door opened and squinted my eyes as the bright ray of the sun pierced into my eyes.
Was I to walk under this sun to get to Silver Pack? Alone? I closed the door.
As I did, a guard came running, a letter in his hands. He bowed and stretched the letter to me.
“Alpha, the letter came last night but I stayed away because you were worrying about the Luna.” He explained.
I took it and read the content. My face changed to different expressions within that half a minute.
Bringing down the letter, I stared into space for a second, wondering what the hell was wrong.
“What the hell is wrong with Alpha Jaden and Alpha Your Silver? Why go attack Logan alone?”
The guard looked down, like I was scolding him.
My eyes glazed over the letter again then I slapped it on the guard, walking away. “Now she’s injured and he’s poisoned!”
I yelled at the air again. “Why didn’t they plan it with all the Alphas like her letter said!”
Was there anything else she wanted from Logan other than him dead? Wasn’t it an ambush she wanted? Two Alphas weren’t a fight with Logan.
I snapped my head at the guard and pointed. “And give that letter to Ray as well. He should know want his sister is up to.”
He nodded and bowed, walking away.
“Also, tell him not to come to Silver Pack. I’m heading there.” I added before moving on.
I wasn’t even sure of how I’d help when I got there but I needed to be there first. I hoped Your Silver was okay, and Jaden.
How did he get poisoned? He was an Alpha wolf and all poison should be able to be forced out by his energy.
I reached the forest where Black Rose and Silver Pack were at. They were far apart, at the beginning and ending of the forest.
I tried to feel for Liam’s energy, hoping it’d still be around Black Rose but it wasn’t. Annoyed, I ran off to Silver Pack.
“Why was it Jaden that Your Silver visited Logan with? They are that close, aren’t they?” I wondered within me.
My wolf came to the surface, hoping to judge me with those words.
“And if they are? They are two single adult wolfs who could have a love life. It shouldn’t be your business.”
He always misunderstood everything I said.
“Well, that love life would be my business. Not only as their Alpha King but as it meant Jaden would be the new Alpha King after me.”
That somehow shut my wolf up.
I was at the Silver Pack border. The security had tightened like they’re still anticipating Logan.
“Alpha King!” The warriors saluted then bowed.
That was new. Did their Alpha tell them to be nicer to me after visiting my pack? I liked the change.
I hurried to the main house but saw Jaden at a tent nearby with the Silver Pack’s Delta, Camilla.
If Rihanna was injured, she’d probably be passed out and asleep. Jaden would be the one to tell me what happened.
I hoped to sneak up on them but a warrior passed me and saluted “Alpha King!” with a bow.
The two turned to me.
I sighed, nodding at the warriors that passed.
“Are you alright?” I asked Jaden.
Camilla made a small bow and walked away.
I sat where she had been, inspecting the injury on Jaden’s shoulders.
It wasn’t healing though it looked minor and there was a darker shade to the blood inside it.
“Is this a medicine?” I asked again, then realized he hadn’t answered the first time.
“Jaden, are you alright?” I shifted closer. He gazed at me with a tired expression then sighed.
