Chapter One Hundred–Nine Investigation
Aden’s POV
My wolf and I hadn’t settled on whether we should be around Red Moon. We weren’t allies, I could he spotted as a trespasser If found. However, we were working together, according to Rih’s plan, to alert each other about Logan. The least they could do was Ignore me if I strayed too close to them..
I really needed to solve Hunter’s riddles. I felt greatly compelled to. As we passed by some trees, Zeke came closer to the
surface.
“Do you sense something?” I asked.
He said nothing and retreated. I bent to check. It seemed something was buried underneath. I searched and found a rotting squirrel. Someone had killed it and buried it. Why not eat it? I covered it back and looked at the tree marks. They were unclear claw marks that belonged to a wolf. From that tree, I looked ahead and could clearly see Red Moon. Their walls were worn out but still stood strong. From there, I’d be able to see if they were on fire.
And with the dead squirrel, I wondered if this was where Hunter had stayed. Any closer would have attracted Red Moon’s
border warriors.
“Ray said Edwin saw a small demon around Red Moon when Chris was with the Lycan. Could it be Hunter he saw?” my
wolf asked.
He had been calm since I scolded him for rough handling the warriors during training. Now he was speaking to me like we were good?
If you w would want me to keep my opinions to myself, I would, he said.
I crouched by the tree, looking for anything else. The squirrel, I noticed, had been killed by biting; it wasn’t intended to be
eaten.
“If you would apologize and show remorse whenever you overreact, I would like that too,” I said to my wolf.
Looking above and ahead, there was a mud mound. I went towards it and looked down. There was a bloodstain on the ground. Some rocks around it had claw marks and paw prints of blood. Could this have been where Chris saw the Lycant after his battle with Rihanna? It was really close to Red Moon. And that tree with claw marks–could it be Logan who killed the squirrel and made the marks on the tree?
“Listen, whether you’re mad at me or not, Edwin would have stayed at a distance, like the tree, while Chris handled the Lycan,” my wolf started.
I felt like blocking his connection, but I needed a second party, deduction as my investigation skills were not the greates He continued, “Also, the marks on the trees are too low to be by Logan, and why kill a squirrel?”
I checked the height of the marks. Yes, they were too low to be done by Logan, even if he was wounded.
“It makes sense if it was H
was Hunter. His wolf is unstable and could kill anything he saw,” my wolf added.
“And you think he’s also the small demon Edwin saw? How couldn’t Edwin recognize a wolf when he saw one?” I asked.

That was a fact. When I saw Hunter’s wolf on the day we met, ander the moon. If Edwin had seen Hunter’s wall here, where “like a black figure moving around.

Surprisingly, my wolf agreed. “He is special.”
He thought so too? That was new.

they grow. Thunter’s wolf is one of a kind, I noted.
“Well, I hope he doesn’t get proud and become rude to his warmors and trouble Hunter as well. I know wolves like that.” [ sighed disappointedly.
My wolf was very sure I was talking about him. “Fine, I’m sorry You can relay my apologies to your weak warriors!”
A smirk came to my face, “Apology accepted.”
I turned to check the mud mound again and then the tree. Hunter scared Edwin at this tree, just as Logan had almost killed Chris at the mud mound. Hunter had been earlier scared by Logan, which made him run to my pack on the day we met. If he had noticed Logan’s wolf around, he should have strayed away instead of coming close and causing a scene.
“But then, Hunter said he doesn’t know what made him come close,” I sighed.
Lots of things needed explanation, but I was glad I had something to tell Hunter. His wolf had been to all the places he saw. It wasn’t a dream. I’d leave out the part about Edwin distracting Chris to lose Logan, so he wouldn’t feel bad.
With that information achieved, I ran down towards Silver Pack My wolf had gone silent, and I didn’t bother him. An energy was rushing towards me, but I recognized it. I smiled. He was back already.
“Alpha, you’re close?” It was my Delta, Jonah. Rihanna had called him to do something urgent for her. Since it was private, I didn’t ask.
“Yeah, heading to Silver Pack. I have a message to deliver.” He was close, so we could mind–link.
I felt him closer. “I’m coming with you. In
with you. In case anyone had tried following me to Black Rose, they won’t see me
there.
Was he hiding from someone again? Why were all his trips to Black Hills followed by a run? “Is it related to Princess Vanessa?
“You know it,” he tsked.
He sped toward
me, almost knocking into a tree. His speed had increased, but he was yet to control it. He smiled, mo
away from the tree.
“The message you’re delivering is good news, right?”
“Yes, to a boy I met there. He shifted at eight. Impressive, right? We moved along.
Jonah didn’t react. “Well, I don’t know. I shifted at twelve, and my mom had told me some pups shifted earlier, so eight could be a thing.”

That was just his mom being a critic, like I’ve known her to be ups shifting at eight was new but not bar.
“This boy has a crazy wolf as well. His wolf acts without him and goes to places he doesn’t know.”
Don’t that happen to lake when he was younger, or was it you think It happens to wolves sometimes, fonal replied.
“By the way, we’ll see this pup’s Alpha when we get there. Are we supposed to get flowers or something? Jonah asked.
1 paused. “What custom was that? 1 frowned.
“Um… that’s how you visit a young lady. Well, you wouldn’t know, but yeah, that’s how.” And he ran out to look for
flowers.
I could hear my woll’s snicker inside me, vibrating in my head. Stupid wolf!” I cursed.
He replied, “lealous human!”
