You Rejected A Silver Wolf

Chapter One Hundred and Seventy - How'd It Happen?

Jaden's POV

A monster. That was what I had unlocked.

And part of me felt that I hadn't just unlocked it, but that it had always been a dormant being inside me all along.

How had I unraveled the mysteries behind this new rank? This cursed rank. A Lycan rank.

Had this ever happened before? I wasn't aware.

I'd lose a lot. Yes, I'd lose a huge amount.

But then, I had already lost a lot, so if this was the blessing of the Moon Goddess to me, then I should accept it with open arms.

"So, Leon, what did you say I'd do to shift back?" I asked my wolf as I couldn't get myself to my normal human size.

I had to sleep in a cave like an animal because I couldn't be seen in Lycan form around my pack until I had explained everything.

"It's an 'inhale and exhale' exercise. Try it." He repeated for the hundredth time.

It wasn't working. "Anything else?"

My eyes went down to the ground, strong at the muddy, sticky soil. "I really want to leave here for the comfort of my bed! And right now!"

"If you didn't notice, we both shifted to Lycan yesterday, so I also have no clue!" he yelled back.

We both became Lycans? But he acted like he knew. He had an attitude when we shifted.

Not to mention that he suddenly knew his name.

Sensing my thoughts, he scoffed. "Wait, were you thinking I turned you Lycan? Like I snapped my paws and decided you'd be Lycan?"

Well, yes. I replied in a small voice. "You didn't freak out when changes happened, so I assumed you knew about it."

"Not as much as you think." He sniffed.

So he was as clueless as I was? "What do you know, please? Anything to help me out here?"

He sighed deeply. "I've felt different from other wolves. And I rarely connect with them."

I knew all that. He had social issues. "So?"

"The feeling was more defined as I grew up, but you didn't agree with it, so I suppressed it."

"And what was it?" I braced myself for a reply.

"Dominance. I had a domineering aura." He remarked. "Not ideal for you as an Alpha, since you should lead, not just dominate."noveldrama

Of course, it wasn't ideal. That's a jerk attitude.

He was also an Alpha wolf, so why'd he want to 'dominate'? And who?

"Jaden, you wanted to make a good Alpha and prove your father and uncles wrong." He added.

My countenance changed, and I nodded. "Yes, and being a dominant Alpha wouldn't have helped."

"I knew that." He agreed. "I knew if I pushed my crazy side, along with my need to dominate, you'd lose that chance. So I suppressed it."

Why did I feel guilty that he had to go through that for me? And why was he like that? How did it bring us here now?

"So you somehow released yourself, and now we became Lycan?" I inquired. "Maybe." He shrugged. "The pain we had experienced yesterday brought it all back, and I guess that's what happened."

I blinked numerous times after he was done. "So pain and anger, which are major things you're plagued with, made me Lycan?"

Much sense was made, but not much was understood. His pain and anger made me Lycan? "I thought you had to be born Lycan?"

"Some werewolves become Lycan by merit or hard work. It's not always from birth." He said.

My mouth shaped in an 'oh'. But I didn't think I'd be like those wolves.

If these were all true, then it was truly a gift from the Moon Goddess.

A gift to help me whoop Logan's ass. "Only I need to know how to control it first."

I cut off the mind link between Leon and me. I'd need to get used to his name as I was already used to addressing him without an identity.

After much inhaling and exhaling, along with mindful effort to shift back, I began noticing a change in my size.

Slowly, I returned to my normal size. But with my clothes enlarged.

The innerwear I had was dropping from my waist, only my trousers held on because

they were elastic and had stretched when I grew bigger.

"I'm still not presentable to go home. Maybe I should shift to my wolf form and enter?" I housed the thought before shaking it off.

"It's better actually." Leon connected back and said. "And you should hurry back now before my mate worries."

His mate? "Leon and Lana is a pretty name for a pair, don't you think?" He grinned.

A done look graced my face, and I stared into space. "I think you should stop talking."

I took off my suede trousers and tied them to my legs. I shifted into my gray wolf and exercised a bit.

A sudden shockwave went over me, and it was like my spine became flexible, and I could stand.

"Can't I be in wolf form comfortably anymore?"

Leon chuckled. "Because you're Lycan. Do you see Logan in his wolf form all the time? He rarely is."

He pointed out, and I wondered why. "Lycan form lets you and your wolf be more in sync than when you're in wolf form."

"In this form, the full wolf form, I take the lead more." He concluded. "So which is better?"

Lycan form felt easier and freer, but I can't be seen that way. "Whatever." I rolled my

eyes. "And why do you know a lot about Lycans?"

I took careful steps while strolling back home.

Not to reserve my energy, my injury was gone now as I had Lycan energy, and that was

the problem.

I needed to mask off the Lycan energy so normal wolves wouldn't sense it?

Only Alphas, Betas, or Deltas would, and I'd explain to them why. Being a Lycan like Logan would be frowned upon and seen wrongly.

I did nothing to become a Lycan, so this wasn't by my will but the Moon Goddess's.

I'd try to use the Lycan strength and energy but not the physique so I wouldn't scare anyone.

This was a blessing, not a curse.
