You Rejected A Silver Wolf

Chapter One Hundred and Eighteen - No Strength

Rihanna's POV

Honestly, I didn't have the strength to kill Logan, but he shouldn't know that.

Jaden's wolf had tired me out, my sides still hurt like hell, and the run I had just taken wearied me. Logan wouldn't let me kill him without a fight, and it was the fight I didn't have the strength for.

I let go of him. "Props to whoever did that to your neck. Chris?"

He turned to me and rolled his eyes. "Yes."

Looking at him now, calm, not bloodthirsty, and in human form, he had the same gentleness as when I first met him. His hair was arranged, his green eyes looked quite attractive, and it was like whatever demon had possessed him wasn't in control.

"I could kill you," I said when I realized I had stared too long.

He smirked. "Same. But we both don't have the strength to."

He knew I couldn't kill him? "I will next time we meet!" I blurted out, annoyed at my own weakness.

"Same again. And I'm glad you understand that you're not invincible, just really powerful."

I frowned, trying to get off that topic. "What did you come to buy? Don't trouble these people."

He took out a drug. "I bought too many of these painkillers. Have some." He threw them at me.

I caught them—about three bottles. I stared at them, then at him, before shoving them into my pocket. "You made Chris blind?"

His eyes widened. "It worked? Oh, Boots and Rivers Market really hasn't lost its touch on making good charms."

Was it a charm? No wonder it had sounded funny to me. I had heard of it before. But now that I knew, did I have to buy Chris a cure for it?

"Darn it," I whispered.

Logan chuckled. "I heard some rumors at the Boots and Rivers Market. It's quite common knowledge that you hate Chris, your Alpha King."

I barked, "He isn't my Alpha King!"

"Hmm, so it's true. News has it that your Delta dared to attack him at Black Rose. The guts you trained those women with." He clapped.

I shook off the underhanded praise. This wasn't what I should be using my time for.

"I don't care if you deem me impressive..."

"I shouldn't, but it's hard to ignore," Logan tsked. "Honestly, I thought of befriending you at first because you shared a hate for him."

He had thought of befriending me? That's why he had acted nice, wasn't it?

"Jaden was right, you didn't want healing," I rubbed my temples. "You wanted to use my hate for Chris? Did you think I was that gullible?"

"Oh please, you were," he waved his hands. "If not for Jaden, you'd have fallen for all my plans."

The urge to punch his guts was great within me. "You wanted to manipulate me. To kill Chris?"

"Maybe. Only you had pure hate for him. You used every chance you got to disobey and insult him. But Jaden saved you," he sighed bitterly.

My chest heaved up and down gently, but I felt heavy. This Lucan had tried manipulating me with my hate for Chris. To be honest, it could've worked.

"I bet then that Chris didn't actually set me up with you that day. You faked it!" I recalled the day he kidnapped the Blue Bloom Princess.noveldrama

He nodded. "When I heard your Delta attacked him because of it, I was impressed.

Your King is quite tolerable. I'd have killed that girl."

He took steps back as my fists clenched. "You have low energy within you. Don't push me to kill you," he warned.

But I clearly saw fear in his eyes.

"I will be the one doing the killing..." I swore.

Acting like I was about to attack, he lunged forward, trying to counterattack, but he met my barrier, which sent him flying.

Lana grinned proudly for successfully coming up with another skill move.

"...but not yet. You're right, I shouldn't push myself and should be patient," I continued.

He spat out blood, his claws shot out, but he didn't get up. I knew he still had energy, but he wanted me to get close first so he could attack. I didn't fall for it. The barrier creation would take a toll on me in a few minutes.

"If we meet again, it will likely be your death." I sped off after that to get the cure for Chris.

Logan's words haunted me as I ran back from the market to my pack. Chris hadn't been innocent, but he had surely been blamed for things he hadn't done. And about Chris being tolerable-yes, he wasn't naturally violent like his father. As a young teen, I had found that attractive, but now, it was just one of the few good things in him.

And Jaden might have a crazy wolf and be weird, but he had in-depth knowledge of things. Maybe, as a new Alpha, I had a lot to learn after all. No bastard was manipulating me with my emotions ever again.

When I got to the border, I began walking to save the little energy I'd need to ride the horse. I went directly to the stables to see Camilla.

"Oh, you're back? Beatrice thought you ran off to avoid going to Black Hills," she laughed.

I smiled. "Why would I do that? Anyway, package this. I bought something for Chris, so I'd like to make it a big deal. Package it well."

Camilla gave me a side-eye before taking the cure. She placed it in a fancy box, then mounted the horse. "Let's go! Everything's packed!"

I jumped on the horse and nodded. We rode for minutes. I slept in thirty-second intervals while riding. Thankfully, I didn't fall.

Camilla came into my mind link. "We are at the borders, but we didn't write to say we were coming."

That shouldn't be a problem. I was an Alpha.

"We are here to see Chris," I told the warriors. They looked at me, confused.

"You know me. Stop acting dumb. Call your Beta then. I am here to see Chris since he can't see me," I said the last line lowly.

Camilla caught it and laughed, but the warriors frowned. "We know you, Alpha Your Silver. We only wonder why you're here."

"What gives you the right! If I'm here to kill your Alpha, don't you think he can defend himself? Or, yes, he's blind," I taunted again.
