You Rejected A Silver Wolf novel Chapter 22

Catch That Delta

Chapter Sixteen

Catch that Delta.

Rihanna’s POV

Dara and Camilla dressed in dark outfits. I dragged the Black Rose Lead Hunter as bait, with my loyal spokesman, Irwin, beside me. I usually used his voice when speaking to the slaves we saved, so they believe I was a male and spread rumors. But that ruse would soon end–there was no need to hide anymore. It was far more rewaling to face your karma directly.

My only fear was what might befall my twin brother, Raymond, if his Alpha discovered he had lied about my death and I became a force to be reckoned with.

“Let’s head to Rose Meadow. You better hope your Delta got that letter,” I told the Lead Hunter, shoving him onto the horse before climbing up behind him.

We set off, three horses galloping toward Rose Meadow. Irwin rode behind Dara, while Camilla rode alone. The journey lasted only forty minutes before the red valley came into view.

Rose Meadow was filled with nothing but red roses. Not exactly what I expected, despite the name. How could such a pure place exist in Black Rose Pack?

As we neared the valley, I noticed the Lead Hunter shifting suspiciously on the horse. I rolled my eyes, grabbed his hand, and pulled the knife from his waist. He grunted as the blade nicked him.

“Stay still, or I’ll kill you before you even see your Delta!” I barked.

He grunted again and purposely fell from the horse, slowing me down. I mind–linked Dara and Irwin, telling them to go ahead. I’d guide Irwin on what to say if we could only deliver the message to the Delta. I planned to use the Lead Hunter as a distraction for Jake.

“Your Silver, Jake Justin, isn’t with the Delta,” Dara informed me as she rode closer to the young man. Irwin was hidden beneath a long hoodie.

“Are you the Delta of Black Rose?” I said through the mind link, guiding Irwin to ask the Delta aloud.

I tied the Lead Hunter’s hands and pushed him ahead. “Camilla, be careful. If Jake isn’t with the Delta, he’s lurking nearby.”

She confirmed through mind link and found a place to hide. I covered my face with a mask and kept the Lead Hunter under me.

“The Delta’s name is Jonah, and he wants his hunters released,” Irwin relayed.

I added pressure to the Lead Hunter to keep him from moving. Suddenly, I felt a powerful presence nearby–Jake Justin.

“Ask him what he’s discussing with Red Moon. Tell him you’re interested,” I instructed Irwin.

Suddenly, a massive brown wolf collided with the invisible boundary had set up. It had to be Jake Justin. How did he get here so

quickly? If he sensed the boundary, he’d suspect a Silver Wolf was near.

Would this blow Irwin’s cover, or should I act as if there was a second Silver Wolf?

Jake charged the boundary again but bounced back. I spotted Camilla sneaking behind him. I quickly mind–linked her to stop–she couldn’t take on Jake alone.

“Irwin, trap the Delta!” I ordered.

Catch That Delta

“What? You want us to attack him?” he questioned.

“Yes! He’s alone. Jake is tracking me, and we don’t have time to waste. Trap the belts, or your cover will be blown.”

I shut the mind link and released the Lead Hunter as a distraction. He ran toward Jake Justin, screaming,

“Jake, run! The Silver Wolf is-” A silver nail pierced his back, paralyzing him mid–sentence. Jake’s wolf whimpered, stepping back.

I moved with the shadows, adjusting the boundary to keep Jake away from the Lead Hunter, Dara mind–linked me again.

“We’ve got him with sleep paralysis, but Irwin fell for it too!”

I rolled my eyes. Irwin’s omega rank was a nuisance. Dara, already a warrior level, had resistance to the sleep powder.

“Let’s move out!” I ordered. Camilla dragged the Lead Hunter away. I became visible to Jake Justin but left before he could fully take in my appearance.

We arrived at Silver Cave, our fortress. The Delta was starting to wake up, but I didn’t want him to see me just yet since I planned

to release him.

“Irwin isn’t awake yet,” Dara reported as I went to check on him. I sighed. The omega boy was truly weak.

“Fine. I’ll show the Delta my face. I don’t care,” I muttered, stomping toward the prison cell and throwing the door open.

The Delta had a cut on his hand from trying to break free of the silver chains.

“It’s no use,” I said, strolling into the room. His head snapped up, and his blue eyes met mine. We stared at each other for a moment before I cleared my throat and looked away.

Perhaps I was flustered because I hadn’t been close to a handsome man in three years. Nothing new.

“So, Jonah, I am Your Silver,” I said, my voice muffled by the mask that still covered my nose and mouth.

“You’re a woman,” he stated, almost accusatory.

“Can’t a Silver Wolf be a woman?” I tilted my head.

He chuckled. “You wouldn’t be the first amazing woman I’ve met.”

He thought I was amazing? I brushed off the compliment.

“I have a female Alpha,” he added.

“Had,” I corrected.
