Chapter Ninety–Eight – Breathe
Jaden’s POV
Hunter snapped his head at Jake. My hands fell from him. The order warriors were dead? We just passed by there now.
What caused it? I attempted to run back and check, maybe chase whatever did that, but Hunter held my arm.
“Don’t go, that wolf is really scary. Don’t go!”
What was he saying?
Jake pulled him away from me. “Who are you? He’s an Alpha and has a duty to his people! Jaden, let’s go check it.”
My brother tried coming with me, but I held him back, still gazing at Hunter.
The little boy’s jaw fell. “You are an Alpha? Well, that scary wolf chased my wolf from Silver Pack to here, he could kill you!” he began crying.
“You were chased by a scary wolf?” I asked; he hadn’t told me that part. He said he got lost!
“Yes, I shifted and found myself outside my pack but not far away, but then he began chasing me, and I ran here,” Hunter sobbed.
Why didn’t he hint at this when we talked? I could’ve handled it before now. And a scary wolf that killed my warriors but not a kid?
It was becoming obvious that this wolf wanted me to meet the kid. He was a distraction, and my border warriors paid for it.
I stormed out, ignoring Hunter’s pleas. Jake was behind me. Why didn’t this wolf dare attack Hunter and I while we were outside?
My wolf came to the surface with low growls. “This design is very Lycan,” and I had to agree.
Jake stopped behind me, turning away when his eyes landed on the bodies of the border warriors: Other warriors tried to pick their pieces.
I just locked eyes with these men a minute ago.
My heart was beating rapidly in my chest. I couldn’t sense any energy. The Lycan must have been so quick and disappeared.
Jake held onto my arm firmly. “That Lycan would die in this manner. He doesn’t deserve to see tomorrow’s sunset.”
Was he insinuating we go after the Lycan now? I wiped a tear that strayed down without my knowledge.
My wolf was burning with rage, and that was all I could do. Indeed, he was the stronger version. Not that crying is weak.
“Silver Pack. The Lycan will do the same thing to them!” I pronounced, backing away from Jake.

He looked at me questioningly before realizing. “Go then. Get him before he does. You and Rihanna should kill him!” he barked.
Hunter ran out at that point, ushing towards me. “Let me go with you.” He was already heading to the forest.
I wasn’t interested in a distraction or some pup to slow me down. I forced a smile at my brother, for encouragement, and
off.
I was stunned to see a dark brown pup already running ahead. How quick was Hunter to shift? There was no sound of howls or groans.
Trying to get to him, I shifted and took off in blinding speed. I surpassed him, but feeling no energy around, I knew nothing would hurt him.
And I could be a source of training to help him gather speed.
Nearby Silver Pack, I inclined,my ears to hear for screams or fight sounds, but only chattering.
I was panting, losing breath from running miles within seven minutes. I shifted beside a tree, wore shorts, before getting close.
“Dara!” I called, then breathed in and out.
She turned to me, and her jaw dropped. Was it by my presence? Bro, looking good. Who did you come to meet, eh?”
She raised her brows in a teasing manner. I was confused. Was there no havoc happening here?
