Chapter Hundred–One Inn Desires
Chris’s POV
–
Call me a bad Alpha King, but I was my mother’s son before I took that shitty title, a title I’d be losing soon anyway.
I helped the Red Moon warriors gather their wounded wartiers Logan had visited them as well; he was being a wildfire.
Reminded me of Your Silver, only that there was no purpose in his fight. Your Silver had fans, the slaves she saved.
But Logan
Logan destroyed everything, and for what reason? Surely not worth the lives of the wolves.
“I hope Your Silver is doing well at Blue Bloom. And Jaden at Blue Fire. We being part of us, is wrong!”
My wolf, Zeke, had to rub it in.

“My mother stays
here. This is her pack. I was just worried. Aren’t you?” I asked him.
He didn’t reply, but I still felt his disagreement.
Maybe I

I was a bad Alpha King, but I had other wolves who could handle it. Red Moon had no one to help or encourage
The Red Moon Alpha approached me,
having h
his wounded lead warrior on his shoulders.
He slowed down, making eye contact with me, but then increased his pace.
“I didn’t believe when I was told you are here,” He grinned.
The lead warrior on his shoulders looked up at me; I ignored him. He was my mother’s younger brother and fully involved in the mate swap.
“Yes, I came because these wolves are innocent. And they were once my subjects,” I said with a nod. “I’d best be on my way now”
I made to leave, but the lead warrior spoke, making me halt.
“You came to know how your mother is doing, right? You
You don’t have to act like you aren’t her son…”
“Maybe I am. But is she my mother?” I retorted.
My uncle left his Alpha’s shoulders, struggling to stand on his own. What kind of question is that? Because she isn’t your father’s real Luna?”
That was not even close to the reason. I was her son nevertheless, whether I liked it or not.
But d
did she see herself as my mother?
She lied to me and Vanessa. She knew what the sorcery practice would do to her children’s reputation yet ventured into it.

She placed us in the middle of hatred and self doubt, and forever scarred my father, a man she claimed to love, emotionally.
She destroyed my life with my first mate and convinced Vaness not to chase after the Black Rose Delta
She wasn’t a good mother and only cared about being the Black Hills” Luna.
So my question stood. I was her son, but did she ever consider herself at my mother? She rarely acted like it.
But pouring out my feelings and how hurt I was would make me look weak; I was supposed to be the Mighty Alpha King
with no worries.
There was no one to share my pain with and receive no judgment. No one saw my weakness or accepted them.
Weird enough, the only one who knew I had a weakness was Your Silver, one person I hurt a lot.
And seeing the weakness, she used it to mock me instead, I’d always be the villain, alone and hated.
I snapped from my thoughts and faked a smile at my uncle. “I don’t have to answer you. Since you look safe, I’d be leaving
now.”
I made to leave again, but my arm was held. My fist clenched, and whoever held it let it go.
When I turned, I saw the Red Moon’s Alpha; he bowed. “Thank you for stopping by and helping us. And personally, I apologize for everything.”
The mate swap deal happened before he was born, so I’d never blame him. I nodded. “It’s alright. Take care of your pack.” I finally left.
Standing outside their border, I laid my eyes on the ruins on the ground. Blood splatter and weapons
everywhere.
Logan would never be spared again if he was seen; this wasn’t the case of imprisonment but death.

I almost left for Black Hills before I remembered I hadn’t come alone. Edwin was at neighboring lands, searching for his
sister.
As Red
Moon was closer to Silver
Pack, he checked if they kept his sister around.
It’d be bad for Your Silver if he found Sasha around her pack, though it wouldn’t be concrete proof that she had her.
My wolf came to the surface, probably for another scolding. I braced myself internally for it
Even my own wolf wasn’t on my side, who else will be? “You can start guilt–tripping me now,” I reminded since he was
quiet.
He sighed. “I don’t enjoy guilt–tripping you, but I just don’t get your emotions. Nobody could.
“At least, I’m your wolf, so I should know. You make me feel like you don’t want to be an Alpha King, but you do,” He continued.
Did he filter that out from my deeper inner desires? I tried to block him out, but he fought for a connection.

Did Logan catch up with him? How far was he?
“I found a girl, a dead girl here. I know my heart won’t take this He sobbed, then choked.
My legs were frozen. He found a girl? That was what made him in tears? He was hard to reach. What
t was about the girl?
I wondered if I’m to go back to Red Moon and ask them to find Edwin.
They knew this place better than I did. “Edwin, where are you?”
“I… I’m not sure… but I can find my way back, don’t worry. I’m coming to you now. Should I bring her?” He sniffed.
He seemed to be getting better. Who was this girl, and how could she provoke an em

“Bring her then.” I’d know when he’d come.
