Chapter Hundred and Seventy-Three – Wild wolf.
Rihanna’s POV
I returned to my pack.
That mate of mine was a hassle.
If he knew I was looking for him, why not he show himself to me before running off?
Dara was running to me as I walked into the main house. “Alpha! A letter from Red Moon!”
I sped to her to reduce her distance, she needed to still rest, that hit she took was hard.
“Before you ask, yes, we found Jaden. He is at Black Rose now.” I told her, opening the letter.
I saw that it had already been opened so read it’s content. “This is just thanks for saving…”
My mouth fell open when I looked down and read the lines. It wasn’t just thanks and condolences for losing a Beta from an ally pack.
“Alpha, do you see what Logan had been planning? I can’t believe!” Dara yelled.
He really wants to destroy all werewolfs! A charm that could drain energy from us to him?
He killed Ralph with it? That’s gruesome. He must have had no strength to fight back.
What kind of state of helplessness was that!
I gritted my teeth angrily. “Prepare someone to send this letter to Black Hills and other packs.”
Red Moon might have told us as we’re working together to protect each other from Logan, but Black Hills and the rest needed to know too.
Dara saluted and ran back to the main house. I followed her with clenched fists.
No wonder Logan left without trying to put a fight, he was still strong but was eager to leave as he knew he had a faster way of hurting us.
As I entered the door, I punched the wall angrily and it made a crack on it.
I held my arm which was red, breathing heavily. My fists clenched and I punched it again.
“He wants to drain my energy without direct contact! Who taught him how to go smarter!”
As I yelled, I felt slight headache but that’d be the least of my worries now. I needed to vent but only newly shifted pups were training.
Beatrice should be the one training them so there was no one to train with.
Thinking of newly shifted pups, I remembered Hunter was having his first duel today and he invited me to watch.
My breathing normalized, my head was in a bun but I poured it down. I wasn’t sure how it’d help.
When I closed the door of the main house, I felt three wolfs running towards me then their screams came seconds after. “Alpha! Alpha!!”
What happened now? “What is it?” I broke into their mind links and asked.
They stopped running to me and reported in unison. “Hunter’s wolf had gone wild in the training ground!”
My eyes enlarged. His wolf went wild again? Of course, he’s Lycan and needed special training.
“Everyone should back away from him! Now! Don’t try to tranquilize him!” I ordered as I ran to the scene.
I connected to Beatrice but she wasn’t around at that point. Jean was the one I met trying to calm down a wild wolf.
The other scared pups were behind her while she was gesturing to Hunter to calm down.
“Carlos!” I barked, walking in front of Jean and the pups. That should be Hunter’s wolf’s name.
“Do you want me beating your ass up!” I yelled, my eyes changing to a different color.
But then, pups were generally inexperienced hence fearless. He lounged at me perceiving I was a threat.
I sighed and initiated my barrier, he was a powerful wolf, even in that small body so he bounced back quite hardly.
He grew limp and rested there. The other pups gasped admirably seeing he flew meters away when I didn’t touch him.
“Jean, don’t tell Beatrice this. Don’t make her worry.” I told her in mind link.
If his mother knew then it’d draw her closer to realizing that he was a Lycan then questions of how would arise?
Also, won’t his Lycan energy become easy to sense when he grows up?
“But Alpha,” Jean started. “If he goes wild on her? She should know he’s capable of being…”
“Being what!” I interrupted her. “He’s just a pup that had issues with Logan before. His wolf is scared!” I barked.
I mellowed down, not wanting to transfer anger. “In short, only Beatrice or I are allowed to train him from not hence forth.”
“Alpha, I’m sorry I didn’t mean to counter…”
“Don’t apologize Jean! Just obey! Don’t train the boy!” I barked simultaneously.
She looked down and the pups wondered why. “Yes, Alpha.” she replied in mind link.
It was also for her own protection. I don’t know how much strength Hunter had. He was fast, Jaden confirmed it so he must be stealthy too.
For him to be deemed fit by Logan to be an accomplice, he must have exceptional strength for his age.
Either ways, his father was literally the Lycan Alpha King so it’s no surprise.
A better idea came to my head.
Jaden! Jaden could train him.
After all, he said that if Hunter misbehaved, we should send him to him.
“Jean, I’m not mad at you. I’m just saying.” I told her again, with a softer tone.
She rose her head up and looked in my eyes. “I understand, Alpha. I won’t train him.”
As I left, I picked up the little wolf whimpering on the ground. He sighed, seeing I was the one who took him so he behaved.
“Please prepare a horse, clothes for Hunter, and some food.” I told the warriors that had informed me of the incident.
They nodded and ran off. The other pups went back to their formation, looking quite shaken.
“This won’t help Hunter make friends.” I said to myself as I walked to the main house and inside the courtroom.
I dropped the wolf there and he stood straight, in his hind legs, getting his composure.
“Carlos, I hope Hunter is aware of the damage you’re doing to his reputation?” I asked him.
He huffed and plopped back on the ground. He should remain there till the horse, food and clothes are ready.
“You’d meet Black Rose in times of mourn. And do you think Jaden wants a student as he thinks of avenging Ralph?” Lana asked
Did she really think I’d just go all the way there just for Hunter! “I’d speak on how we werewolf would avert Logan’s new plan of course!”
“Hey, hey, don’t you yell at me! I’m not Logan!”
“Whatever!” I yelled again. “I yell at everything and anyone when I’m angry!”
Lana scoffed “You mean helpless, you are helpless now.”
I frowned. Why was my own wolf mocking my situation?
“Well, I’m not! I have a plan.” She added and my eyes lit up. “What plan?”
