You Rejected A Silver Wolf

Chapter Hundred and Seventy-Two - Being Open.

Jaden's POV

My fists clenched.

Jonah was about to counter with something when I slammed the wall, creating a huge

crack in it. They snapped their heads at me in unison.

"I'm keeping the Lycan!" I yelled.

Jonah sighed. Jake gasped.

"What if this is a blessing? I did nothing to become a Lycan, yet here I am," I continued.

"Whether you like it or not, there's nothing like de-shifting." I faced Jonah. "So I'm keeping the Lycan."

My brother shook his head. "You aren't keeping it. You're an Alpha of Black Rose. We've lost a Beta, we can't lose an Alpha as well."

What was he saying? Losing an Alpha? How was this losing? And why was he bringing Ralph into this?

My fists became tighter. "What if this is a gift from the Moon Goddess, to avenge Ralph with?"

"The 'what ifs' are the problem, Alpha," Jonah said. "What if you can't control it?' is the biggest what if."

I didn't think there was any rank that was difficult to control. And yes, I saw the gift as a rank.

"I'd never go berserk in my Lycan form. After all, I'm still me and it's still my wolf," I assured.

He was still unsure, so I added, "This is like a new rank. A Beta doesn't go berserk after he obtains an Alpha rank, does he?"

Jake turned to Jonah and then back to me. "So what should we do? Accept it and tell the rest of the kingdom?"

I didn't know about that yet, but if my own family accepted it, then I didn't really care

As long as I didn't hurt them, they had no reason to call me a threat. "You two should accept it first."

They were the only ones in the pack with the rank to read wolf energy. "Leave the rest." Jonah kept his hands on his waist, his expression disappointed, and it hurt me. I didn't turn myself into this.

"My injury healed when I became Lycan. You two know I needed Lycan energy to heal, so I think this is the Moon Goddess's gift to me."

When I said that, Jonah's hands fell from his waist. Jake rushed to me and ripped the sleeve on the shoulder.

"Hey!" I shoved him away, stunned at his wild reaction. "You could have told me to take the shirt off instead!"

"It's healed. It's really healed," Jake gushed, ignoring me. "This is a miracle from the gift."

Oh, he was accepting it now?

I glanced at Jonah, and he looked genuinely impressed. "This is awesome, really. That's one less thing to worry about," he said.

Seeing their readiness to cooperate, I repeated, "I'm keeping the Lycan. There may be so much we could achieve with it."

"You need to know how to control it," Jake voiced his concern again.

I confirmed, "Yes, I can. You should mean to ask if I can maneuver it because I'm not sure how to shift and 'de-shift.""

My brother looked assured, he nudged Jonah, who smiled. I smiled, seeing them hopeful.

I added, "And for self-controlled Lycans, there are tons. Our ally kingdom, Sun Burn Kingdom, has a jurisdiction for Lycans."

Their smiling faces faded.

"Yes, they have Lycans living amongst them. Even Lycan royalties. And has their Kingdom been torn apart? No," I folded my arms.

Here, we had a bad start with Lycans, that's all.

"Like giving them a jurisdiction is a little too much? Why did they do that?" Jonah asked.

"They earned it,” I said. "They helped the Kingdom in their last war. They are good Lycans in this world, really. Good, natural-born Lycans."

"Hm. And Liam, who I told you helped us that time, is a Lycan. And funnily enough,

he's Logan's son. His mother and Logan had a past together."

Jonah's forehead creased. He didn't know who Liam was, but the part about being Logan's son surely pissed him off.

"I'm trying to be open with you two from now on," I said. "So keep this between us." He and Jake exhaled, taking it all in.

Jake snapped his fingers. "While we are in the mood of being open with each other, tell Jonah that Rihanna is your mate."

My eyes widened. This boy!

Did I say anything about being that open? That wasn't just my secret but Rihanna's as well!

My Delta turned to me with a squeezed face.

I sighed. "Like he said. Also, I didn't think anyone should know as she didn't want it known."

Jonah raised a brow. "You didn't think anyone should know, but you told Jake?"

"Hey, hey, I'm his brother!" Jake defended.

"And I'm his Delta!" Jonah retorted.

Jake folded his arms. "You aren't entitled to his secrets still."

"And you can't even shut your mouth when he tells you," Jonah replied.

They began bickering, and I quietly drifted away toward the letters on my table. That would last for a while.

As I saw the letters on the table, I remembered Jake had said something about Red Moon sending a letter. I noticed theirs and picked it up.

"Oh please, I wanted him telling you so you wouldn't get obsessed with her or something, not because you needed to know," Jake shouted back.

My head snapped at Jonah as he retorted back at Jake, not even trying to counter Jake's claims. I looked away from him.

Jonah was humorous and a playboy. I shouldn't be surprised Rihanna could tame that part of him. She had a natural sexual appeal.

"Why was I thinking that?" I asked myself.

"Yes, why were you? Concentrate on Red Moon's letter," Leon scolded from nowhere.

I opened it and glanced through. It was mainly condolences and thanks for saving the hostages.

My eyes skipped to the last part, where the main issue happened to be.

Logan had actually finished creating the charms he wanted with the Red Moon

hostages, and that was what he used to subdue Ralph!

It had some faults, so he made the hostages do it again, and that's when we came in.

"A charm that drained energy from werewolves and gives it to Lycans," I read.

What was this? Could that be what hit Chris and me below the volcano, but I felt strong while he felt weak? I was almost Lycan then.

"Logan must have been thinking he was the only Lycan around," I gritted my teeth.

And he had really used my Beta as a rat! My fists clenched tightly.

"Jake! Jonah!" I barked at the two before they started throwing hands. "And here's another perk of being a Lycan." I threw the letter at them.

Jonah caught it, and he and Jake read it.

"So in such a case, you'd be the only one strong enough to kill Logan?" Jonah tilted

his head.

It seemed like it. "Either way, I'm the last hope."

This new gift would surely be handy.
