He Can't Die
Chapter Hundred and Sixty-Six - He Can't Die.
Rihanna's POV
I couldn't wait to see Jake's or Jonah's reaction.
The moment I dropped Ralph's corpse in the courtroom, I left.
It was too much to bear. And it was my fault.
If I had been around when Chris and Jaden planned to confront Logan, I might have been able to find Ralph before he died.
"Rih, it's not your fault. Logan killed him before you sensed him. You only saw, with my vision, that he was there," Lana reminded me.
Even still, something could have been done to prevent it. Now, Black Rose had lost a Beta. Would Jaden ever forgive me?
I ran back to where Jaden had been seated, but there was no sign of him. Instead, Beatrice was seated there.
She had a confused expression as she looked up at me. "Is everything alright? I saw Alpha Jaden, and he said things I didn't understand..."
"Beatrice." I hushed her. "Beta Ralph is dead. He was killed by Logan."
Her confused expression slowly fell into an annoyed one. She leaned back with a clenched jaw. "Logan killed a Black Rose Beta?"
Did it sound impossible?
Maybe because she wasn't actively involved in the fights with Logan, or she would know he could.
"He kidnapped him and killed him while making some crazy charm with Red Moon hostages," I sighed. "This is a dark day."
It was a dark day for all of us.
The whole Kingdom. Logan had nearly killed an Alpha King and an Alpha, and he had killed a Beta.
If I hadn't come, he would have caught up with my Delta and Lead Warrior.
Destroying leaders by hierarchy.
I remembered something and began running back to my pack.
"If it's Dara, she'll be okay," Beatrice assured me.
I slowed down and turned to her. "It's Chris. I know Dara will be okay, but what about Chris? He's the Alpha King, and if he dies..."
She nodded, completing my thought. "That would mean Logan won. He could rule us by default."
I nodded back. I could never let that happen. Logan would never kill the current Alpha King.
The warriors had worried expressions as I ran in. I met Jean at the staircase, and she jumped to her feet. "Alpha, you're back."
"Where's Chris? How is he?"
She looked down, and I feared the worst. "He's critical. Camilla said he's drained of energy."
Beatrice barged into the room, and I followed her cautiously. My Delta had laid Chris on a table, bandages all over him.
"I don't know if he'll survive," she said without turning. She made him drink a drug, then sighed.
"He should remember that the battle isn't over and fight this. I don't know how else to help.” She flung her hands in the air.
Chris could fight it. He wasn't rough, but he knew when to be resilient.
"In cases like this, the presence of loved ones, like a mate, helps wolves fight through," Beatrice muttered.
Mate? Chris had no mate.
I was an ex-mate. Could that work? "No, Rih, don't spark any dead bond," my wolf warned.

Then should he die? I rushed to him and held his hand. It was cold. "Is he in a coma?"
Camilla shrugged. "Something like that. He is past being unconscious. He's dying." Lana suggested, "Remind him of Vanessa, his unborn son. If he dies now, he'll be leaving them in a world Logan rules."
My Delta took steps away from him, then cast him one last look. "Let him be, Alpha. If he lives or dies, it's in the Moon Goddess' hands."
"And the Moon Goddess isn't about to take him!" I yelled at her. "She already has Ralph."
Her eyes widened, and she placed her hand over her mouth, then snapped her head to Beatrice, who nodded sadly.noveldrama
I shook Chris. "Hey, if you die, Vanessa will be shredded by Logan and her parts scattered into the sea!"
With my wolf's vision, I scanned his body and saw a spark of life coming in.
I continued. "And Sasha is due soon. You'd never see your son. He'd never shift
because Logan will kill him. Are you really doing this?"
Maybe shouting wasn't helping anything.
Camilla gazed at me with lidded eyes, like she was sure he would die.
"There's no way to snap him out of this?" I questioned for the hundredth time.
"None that I know of," she said in a low tone.
Did this mean we would be losing two leaders of our kingdom? This was a big win for Logan. A double guilt for me.
My claws began to extend as my hand still held onto Chris. "You better wake up, or I'll fasten your death."
Beatrice tried to hold me, but my barrier pushed her back. She pounded on it. "Do you want to be the reason he dies?"

I chuckled manically. "Which is better? Dying by a Lycan or by a Silver Wolf?"
My Beta frowned deeply. "Come on, Alpha! That's crazy. He might still survive."
"Then he should wake up now." I frowned too. "Wake up, now!" I told Chris.
My eyes shifted to a certain color. It didn't feel like I was in Alpha mode but something
else.
Something I had felt on that day I raced with Logan.
"Chris?" I called for the last time. "You asked for this." My claws dug into his wrist-not
too deep and I pulled them out.
I was trying to provoke his healing senses.
They weren't being active, or he would be better by now. Maybe the injuries were too severe, and they were giving up.
I dug my claws into his wrist again, deeper this time, and I felt his hand move from the pain. My eyes lit up, and I withdrew my claws.
He began healing slowly. Did this mean he would survive? His neck injury was relatively larger than the holes I had made on his wrist.
"He's healing. This should be a good sign," I told Camilla, taking down my barrier so she could come close and see.
She hurried to him and checked his pulse. She gave a small smile. "His energy is rebuilding as well. What did you do?"
I smirked, showing the almost-healed holes on his wrists. "And who said that violence doesn't solve matters sometimes?"
I walked away when Camilla reconfirmed he would live. His senses were up and running again.
Beatrice left to see Dara.
A sigh escaped my lips when I reached my room and fell on my bed, the events of today playing in my head.
I wasn't able to find Duchess Vivian before I met Jonah at a motel where Jaden's mother was allegedly staying.
Everything had been a failure today-the only win being that I had resuscitated Chris and gotten back safely.
What do you think?
