Chapter Hundred and Ninety-Eight – His son.
Chris’s POV
How was I still alive?
Logan had stabbed by stomach with his sword like claws and I fell on the ground with my back.
I couldn’t move after that and only heard Jaden’s shouts. I wasn’t sure if he was yelling for me or his mate who Logan had tackled.
My wolf healing must have really improved due to all those fights I have been having with Logan.
The injuries on my sides burned but I felt the soothing relief washing over me as they healed.
Energy drain waves were around me but I didn’t worry as no Lycan was close either.
My mind replayed seeing Rihanna fall with her neck. There was no way she could have died despite that being a fatal position.
And Jaden was weakened to a fault and I knew Logan would use that avenue to kill him.
My legs were losing their sensory nerves as my energy left my body. I groaned, trying to move them.
Before I went to challenge Logan, I told Lucius to watch me so it was just a matter of time before he finds me here.
I rolled to my back, basking under the hot sun. Where Logan kept me was quite open but hidden inside some rocks that walled over me.
Just then I heard footsteps coming towards me. But it wasn’t Lucius.
I rolled to my sides and was preparing myself to rise for a fight but I exhaled in relief seeing Liam.
“You again? How did you find me?”
He jumped inside the walled area, breaking a charm under his feet. “I was looking for my father then noticed energy seeping into me.”
I sat up with less charms around me. Liam didn’t have the excited expressions he usually wore.
He kicked away other charms then held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up.
“Where’s Jaden? And Logan?” he asked.
Why was he looking for Jaden? He was busy. And he was looking for his father? “Who is your father? Is he around here?”
“I shouldn’t bring you into my family’s matters so I wouldn’t answer that.” He said simply. “I’d take you to Silver Pack now.”
A frown rested on my face. If his father was around my kingdom, didn’t I have right to know?
And wouldn’t he need help to find him? Or he only wanted Jaden’s help?
I scoffed. “Very well. Do as you please.”
My heart jumped when he carried me in one swoop and sped towards the forests.
I enjoyed the feeling of not exerting my strength but when I tried to put my feet down, he slowed down, getting to Silver Pack already.
“We’re here! Stay back I’d handle this.” He sped off again. He’d handle what exactly?
I stared at where he ran to, but surprisingly saw him coming back again.
“I’ve no clue where to find them and I don’t know this kingdom well.”
Find who? Jaden? “Jaden and Rihanna will be confronting Logan now. Don’t go close.”
He gazed at something behind me then back at me. “Do you know where that is?”
Wasn’t he listening to me? I said not to go close. Why’d he want to know where it was?
I turned to the figure walking to us. It was a warrior from Silver Pack.
“Alpha Chris.” She bowed. “My lead warrior said I should ask if there’s trouble again?”
I glanced at Liam who was looking downwards. “There’s no trouble. Don’t worry.”
The warriors smiled broadly and faced Liam. “She said I should extend her gratitude to you for helping Greta come back.”
Liam didn’t look up, but rather turned the other way. “Yes, yes.”
After the warriors left, I shook my head. “Liam? What do you want with Jaden now? He can’t help you find your father as he’s…”
“Logan is under a curse. He can’t help his anger towards your kind.” He faced me.
Where was this crap coming from? Logan under a curse?
“And as a son of Logan, that curse has to be removed unless it will affect my generation.” He said firmly.
He was Logan’s son? Wait, so Logan was the father he was looking for? But Jaden said he had helped beat up Logan.
Was he going against his father?
Well, this was one Lycan that wasn’t deranged even if related to Logan, who was embodiment of deranged.
“Also, I used to think I’d die single but since I wouldn’t…” he glanced at something behind me.
My head turned back and noticed it was Dara, I faced him again with a smirk.
“… since I wouldn’t, I’d like to make sure my future generations aren’t under that curse as well.” Liam continued.
That was huge. Logan was under a curse that made him hurt werewolfs? Does this mean he’s innocent in some way?
“I don’t care if Logan dies for his sins, but he should die curse free, for my sake, and my brothers’ sake.” Liam added.
I nodded, as long as Logan gets to die, whatever curse he was entangled with could be removed. Even if I didn’t know how it will be.
“For the sake of you and Dara’s generation, right?” I taunted.
He shrugged. “And more honestly, I’m not Logan’s only son.”
Well, he’s probably the only one I knew.
“I don’t think Dara knows you’re her mate. Or she could have come here herself.” I said.
He nodded. “I didn’t know as well. My mother had strapped me with a necklace that bounced off mate bond.”
I frowned. It must have been the same thing that Jonah used on Vanessa that year. Poor Dara.
And from our distance, she wouldn’t be able to sense the mate bond.
But then, Dara was prejudicial towards Lycans. It’d take a lot to actually get her accepting the mate bond.
“Either ways, I learnt about the curse my father was entangled with. Can you tell me where they are? Please?” he pleaded.
I replied. “I am not sure where he is but check at Blue Fire, around the volcano. That had been one of his hideouts.”
Liam snapped his fingers, remembering the place. “Thank you. Stay safe, Alpha!”
I watched him speed off towards Blue Fire.
My chest heaved up and down, feeling some overwhelming peace that today would be a joyous day.
I turned back and walked to Silver Pack. I will be waiting there till the good news came.
