You Rejected A Silver Wolf
Two Silver Wolves

Chapter Twenty-One - Two Silver Wolves

Jaden's

POV

I swiped through the pages of the record book.

Many accomplishments of Red Moon were written there-accomplishments they didn't deserve.

Single-handedly building a great wall around the five packs to symbolize unity? That had been their project when Chris became King.

But the truth was, Red Moon had raided smaller packs and forced their men to build it. All the names in the documents belonged to Omegas.

Every wolf knew that Omegas couldn't do such work-it was a task for the warriors of the pack, a royal duty as well.

I turned to another page and found that crops meant for the Blue Fire pack had been diverted. Only sixty-five percent had reached them.

Red Moon had kept the other thirty-five percent for reasons best known to them. Blue Fire remained unaware, but this revelation would surely cause chaos.

Many other records were falsified, such as the price of the golden staff used for the burial of the Alpha King's grandfather. All lies.

"Jaden!" I heard my brother call, snapping me from my thoughts. I looked up and smiled at him.

He stood with Jonah, who had been rumored to be kidnapped by Your Silver. I had been preparing to search for him myself. How did he return?

"Why the shocked expression? Speak your thoughts." Jake frowned.

I cleared my throat and shook my head. "It seems Jonah escaped?"

They both climbed the pavement where I was seated. Jake's jaw dropped when he noticed the record book in my hands.

"You found the record book in my room?" he asked, frowning.

I tucked it behind me, searching for an excuse. "I didn't want to waste your time, so I took it myself."

"By sneaking into my room?" he folded his arms.

"Whatever!" Jonah interrupted. "What did you discover from the records, Alpha?"

Jake huffed but stayed quiet. I showed them the pages, and the lies were so blatant that even the blind would see them.

"Could the Alpha King not have known this? Surely, he must have had a spy in Red Moon," Jonah suggested.

That was highly doubtful. The Alpha King did everything himself, but he was also too trusting.

If someone exuded a pleasant aura, he would let his guard down-like he had with me. I distracted him while Jake broke into his study. To him, I had appeared loyal. I scoffed and stood from my seat. "We'll open his eyes to these lies and waste no time. First, we'll spread the rumor that Jonah was kidnapped by Your Silver." "Then attacked by Red Moon," Jonah added.

I paused. "They attacked you?" My fists clenched. How dare they harm my Delta? "Did they do this in broad daylight?"

"Yes. Even Your Silver's warrior was injured. They were sending me back when Red Moon attacked," Jonah explained. "Your Silver was sending you back?" That part caught my attention. Wasn't he supposed to have kidnapped him? "Technically, it was his warrior-a silver wolf-who was returning me," Jake added.

"What?" My expression twisted. "Another silver wolf?"

Jonah interrupted, "No, no-"

"No, what? Are you saying there's no other silver wolf?" I asked, nearly going mad from their conflicting statements.

Jake retorted, "Yes, there is. I saw her myself."

"I mean no, it wasn't the silver wolf who escorted me home. It was a warrior wolf! She got injured, so the silver wolf sent me instead!" Jonah clarified, his voice rising.

Jake stared into the distance, processing Jonah's words, before nodding. I exhaled, finally understanding them. So, there was another silver wolf.

And Your Silver had been kind enough to return Jonah? "Did they return the hunters as well?"

Jake shook his head. "But the female silver wolf said they would, so we should expect them."

A female silver wolf? That was interesting. If she had been the one causing the chaos, it made more sense why the male slaves followed her so easily. Their level of trust in Your Silver was unbelievable or maybe they felt they had nothing left to lose.

"Well, let's forget about Your Silver for now since he's not much of a problem. Spread the rumor that Red Moon attacked our Delta," I ordered. Jake nodded.

"You and Jonah will pay Chris a visit with these findings. Tell him that your spy in Red Moon discovered the truth," I added.

Jonah pointed to himself and then Jake. "You want us both to go?"

Jake sighed. "It'll be boring with you, but I'll endure it if it means Red Moon pays. Maybe I'll even find a mate there."

I rolled my eyes. A mate from Black Hills would be a spy in our pack. They never changed their ways-not even for love.

"Yes, you deserve a mate from Black Hills. Their women are very conceited. Have you heard of Princess Vanessa? She's a total bitch," Jonah scoffed.

I remembered meeting her a cruel woman who bullied maids. Our spy reported that she had been pleased with Rihanna's death.

"Let's hope you both find good mates. But use your discretion and be wary of any further attacks from Red Moon," I warned.

They nodded and walked off together, still arguing over who would find a better mate.

To fuel their argument, I teased, "Jake, remove your charm so you'll recognize your mate at Black Hills."

Jonah laughed, and I smiled. My younger brother pouted and glared at me.

"This charm will prevent me from finding my mate but allow me to see a divine being. Which is better-a mate or a divine being?" he asked.

Jonah kept laughing, so I added, "I'm just saying you won't know if you've met your mate unless you remove it. When you visit Black Hills, take it off."

Jonah grinned. "Yes, so you can recognize Princess Vanessa as your mate." He ducked away when Jake shot him a glare.

"Never! This charm stays on my neck!" Jake stomped his feet and stormed off. He looked cute when angry, and it was satisfying. "Goodbye, Alpha!" Jonah called as he followed Jake.

"Yeah, go safely," I replied, my smile fading as I thought about the silver wolf Jake had mentioned.

Silver wolves were divine beings with immense power-and they could be very dangerous if they went rogue, like Your Silver.

For now, he had been freeing slaves, but if he ever decided to take over packs, he would be nearly impossible to stop.
