You Rejected A Silver Wolf

Chapter Hundred and Twenty-Three - She's happy.

Jaden's POV

We spent three hours on the boat getting back. I would never retake that journey.

Ralph was on my shoulders as we came down. He became seasick by the second trip. "Come on, we still need to buy the cure at Boots and Rivers market," I told him. He staggered and rested on a tree. "Go! I'd come later!" he yelled angrily.

I broke into laughter as I walked away from him, heading towards the market. Having no idea what the cure looked like, I asked the older women around. To show appreciation, I bought whatever they sold; it was mainly food items. Many didn't know it, except a young lady. She sold charms, so knew the cure shop. "You mean you have a charm that causes blindness?" my brows raised.

She sneered. "Yeah?"

Was that healthy? But then the market was home to anyone, no matter what they sold. "Have you gotten a customer that resembles, let's say, a Lycan?" I whispered. She rolled her eyes. "How'd I know?"

With her energy, which was comfortably at Omega level, if she wasn't trained, she'd not be able to see energy.

"Well, because of your charms, I need a cure for a friend of mine." I frowned at her.

She didn't look guilty. "You aren't the only one. Even Rihanna of Silver Pack buys cure. I give that family a sale, so they love me."

It was true that selling charms would give the family who sold the cure more sales. It's like a business circle.

"Wait, Rihanna of Silver Pack? Their Alpha? She bought a cure from this market?" I enquired.

"Yes, she caused a scene by kidnapping a man, hiding behind masks. Maybe he's a slaver. She hates slave masters." The lady sighed.

Rihanna did nothing with slave masters now. "Could you give more info on the build of the man? Where's he from? Red Moon?"

That was the closest pack here.

"I don't know." The lady sounded irritated. "I haven't seen him around, and I'm sure he's not from Red Moon. I'm from Red Moon."

She's from Red Moon and did charms? Was she related to the witches there?

I shifted from her stall. "Sorry to bother you then. Thank you."

I ran back to pick Ralph from the tree he was almost sleeping on. Why had Rihanna bought a cure? Did she get blind too?

"Come on, Ralph!" I struggled to get him up. "There's something I need to check."

He stood upright, then turned to the boats. "I'd never use a boat again. I'd rather teach the horses to swim."

I nodded at his words. "Or swim yourself. Let's go!" I pulled him with me.

A small lady was at a stall where the cure was supposed to be sold. "Hello."

Her eyes lit up, she ran to me. "Hello, handsome sir. What can I do for you?" she giggled.

Ralph looked up, glancing at me then her, to be sure who she was referring to as handsome.

"Um... thank you," I hesitated. "Tell me, did a strange-looking man, in masks, get taken away by Rihanna of Silver Pack?"

The girl blinked before smiling. "You seem to know already with all those details."

I smiled back. "Not really, someone told me."

"What's this about Rihanna? Isn't it the cure we came for?" Ralph asked in our mind link.

"It's related. It's said she bought the cure, and I wondered why," I replied him, still in our mind link.

The girl picked a bottle and raised it up. "This was what she bought when she came back. It cancels a charm for blindness."

I took it, inspecting it. It looked like something that could be poisoned, but I didn't think it was.

"And I heard that the strange man bought painkillers when she left with him into the forest, no one knows why," the girl added.

"Painkillers? That'd be Logan. He was seriously injured by Chris last time," Ralph reminded me.

"And afterwards Rihanna bought a cure for blindness? Did he make her blind too?" I asked myself. "If she was, she wouldn't come to buy."

I faked a smile at the little lady and bought the cure. "Thank you. You should be careful with your customers, many bad people are around."

She bowed. "Thank you, kind sir. I will."

If she was really a relative to that old man, then she had a different gene, because she reflected nothing like him.

Ralph and I bowed as we walked away.

"I assumed you'd speed off to check on your mate?" he asked me.

I faced him. "I want to, but I don't know if you're feeling better already."

He gestured for me to leave. "I'm good...."

I didn't await his other words before speeding off. If Logan really got my mate and Chris blind, he'd be really sorry.

"Beatrice." I slowed down, feeling her energy nearby. She must be on her way to the market.

We met at an intersection the trees made.noveldrama

She looked surprised seeing me. "You... you left with your Beta..."

"Yeah, we are back. How's Rihanna?" I asked immediately.

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.com, you might be missing out on the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free!

She raised a brow, folding her arms. "How should she be?"

I shook my head, rephrasing my words. "I mean, at the market, they're rumors she met Logan, how's she?"

"She did? I didn't know." Beatrice's arms fell.

How could she not know? "They also said she bought a cure for blindness. Was she blind?"

“Oh, no. She bought it for Alpha King Chris, not herself. She traveled to Black Hills to deliver it." She breathed out in relief.

I tilted my head. Rihanna bought a cure for Chris and went through the trouble to deliver it?

"Oh." I looked down.

"Is she back? When'd she be back?" I hadn't apologized for misbehaving during the

duel.

It haunted me all through the boat ride; perhaps that's why my body didn't suffer seasickness.

"Well, yesterday, she wrote back that she arrived safely, will stay for three days, and won a reward from Chris," Beatrice shrugged.

My shoulders slumped. She sounded happy to be there. "Wow. Three days?"

Three days was a vacation. And she won a reward from Chris? Good for her.

"Yeah, I mean, for someone I forced to visit, she seemed to like it there. Black Hills was her home anyway," Beatrice added.

"And at Black Rose, the warriors welcomed her with harpoons always," my wolf continued.

"It was accidental. Is that why you are always harsh to my warriors during training?" I asked him. He said nothing, so I believed it was.

"Thanks for filling me in. I assumed Logan had caused damage when I was away," I muttered.

"No, we're cool." Beatrice waved, strolling off.

I watched her leave. My Beta was getting closer to me. If Rihanna sent Chris the cure,

then our journey was useless.

I wondered how Ralph would react to that.
