Alpha Hayley's Destined Mate novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275 Avalanche 

Christine’s POV: 

“It’s nothing,” he said, unwilling to say more. 

I didn’t press him further. 

Finished 

Although I knew I wasn’t great at skiing, I couldn’t help noticing the group of people gathered on the slope for a snowball fight. It looked fun, so I suggested, “How about we join them for a snowball fight?” 

Christopher probably thought my idea was childish. He wrinkled his nose in distaste. “You go ahead. I’ll stay here.” 

I sighed and decided to go alone. 

But what’s a snowball fight without someone to play with? I felt frustrated. 

Just then, a group of tall, burly men walked over and greeted me in a foreign language. “Hey, beautiful, you alone?” 

I eyed them warily, ready to walk away, but one of them stopped me. “Come join us! It’s way more fun than being alone.” 

Seeing the friendly look in his eyes, I thought, why not? I was bored, and it would be better than being by myself. So, I agreed to join them. 

Hayley’s POV: 

With Christine having Christopher by her side, I felt relieved and continued skiing with Benjamin. 

Standing high above, I gazed down at the snow–covered landscape–it was breathtaking. 

“I could stay here forever!” I said, genuinely enjoying the moment. Benjamin noticed my good mood and smiled. “If you like it, we can stay a few more days.” 

I smiled back, but just as I was about to reply, the ground beneath me suddenly began to tremble. 

“What’s happening? Why is the ground shaking?” I asked, confused. 

Before I could finish, Benjamin’s face went pale, and his expression turned serious. “It’s an avalanche!” 

Panic surged through me as visions of avalanches flooded my mind. 

I felt the snow beneath my feet begin to slip, and before I knew it, I lost my balance and fell forward. 

Benjamin reached out and grabbed me, but then, the world seemed to erupt as the ground cracked and shook. Screams echoed in the chaos… 

He held me tightly as we were swept down the mountain, tumbling uncontrollably. 

I don’t know how much time passed, but eventually, I began to regain consciousness.

Chapter 275 Avalanche 

When I tried to move my arms, which were stiff from the cold, I realized that my lower body was completely buried in the snow. 

And there was no sign of Benjamin beside me. 

Inside me. Hera stirred, uneasy. She warned me that Benjamin might be in trouble. 

Finished 

The memories of what had happened rushed back to me, and a wave of fear washed over me. “Benjamin! Benjamin!” 

I called, but the only response was the echo of my own voice. 

At that moment, a wave of fear and panic gripped me. I shakily forced myself to get up and stumbled 

forward. 

But everything had changed after the avalanche–the landscape was unrecognizable, and there was no one around. 

1 kept walking aimlessly, shouting, “Is anyone out there?” 

But no matter how loud I yelled, there was no answer. 

I dragged my exhausted body forward, not knowing how long I’d been walking. Finally, I saw the rest area in the distance. 

When I saw the rescue team, I rushed toward them. “Please, help me! I still have a friend who might be buried in the snow! You have to find him, you must!” 

The rescue team, seeing my distress, tried to calm me down. “Don’t worry, we’ll do everything we can.” 

They settled me down and split into two teams, heading up the mountain to search. 

My heart was in my throat, and I cursed myself for ever agreeing to come skiing. 

I stared at the endless white of the snow–covered mountain, my eyes watering. I silently prayed, wishing for Benjamin’s safe return.
