With a smug bounce in his step, he descended into the dungeon—only to freeze in place the moment he caught sight of the open cell gate from a distance. His heart skipped a beat. At first, he assumed the guards had simply forgotten to close it in their panic while rushing the healer to the pack hospital. After all, Addison was bound in silver and far too weak to move, let alone escape.
But then—Gamma Levi’s face flashed in his mind.
Greg’s eyes narrowed, and his casual pace turned into a sprint. He stormed into the cell, only to be greeted by the sight of broken silver chains and fresh blood staining the floor. He crouched down, dipped his fingers into the blood, and brought them to his nose.
The scent confirmed his worst suspicion.
He snarled—and then let out a furious roar that echoed through the entire pack via the mindlink: "The prisoner has escaped! Find her—NOW!"
He had rushed out of the dungeon, determined to trace Gamma Levi’s path. Since Levi had been carrying Addison, his steps would surely leave imprints in the dirt, making it easier to track. Beta Greg followed the trail diligently—until a familiar voice echoed through their mindlink.
"Greg, how is Addison?"It was his Alpha.
At that moment, Greg’s heart skipped a beat, and he froze in his tracks.
Zion, who had closed his mindlink to everyone, remained unaware of what was happening. He was still pacing anxiously outside Claire’s room, his thoughts consumed by her condition. The royal convoy was on its way, and anyone watching him would think his worry was natural. After all, Claire was carrying his child and was his future Luna.
’But they were wrong.’
Zion’s true concern was Addison.
He feared that once the royal convoy arrived, her situation would become dire and her life would be in danger. Even his status as a hero and his many merits might not be enough to shield her from capital punishment.
That was why he had sent her to the dungeon—not out of cruelty, but to treat her wounds quietly and buy some time. He wanted the arriving royal convoy to see that he was handling things with the necessary authority and punishment, hoping it would make them less inclined to push for the harshest judgment against Addison.
He had everything planned. All that was left was to ensure Claire and the pup were safe. Once the healer finished tending to Addison, he intended to send her to Claire’s side as well. That way, when Claire eventually woke up, he could appeal to her—ask for her understanding.
As shameless as it sounded, Zion hoped that the act of saving her life might soften her heart. Perhaps she would still insist on some form of punishment for Addison, but if she could at least spare her life, that would be enough. That was all he dared to hope for.
With that thought, he reached out to his Beta, who he had entrusted with Addison’s care. But after a moment, Greg’s presence in the mindlink fell silent.
Zion halted, a frown knitting his brow.
’Something wasn’t right.’
"Is something wrong?" Alpha Zion asked through the mindlink, his voice calm but alert.
"No, Alpha," Beta Greg replied after a pause. "Everything is going smoothly. It’s just... the healer fell ill after treating Luna Addison."
Zion’s brows furrowed. Greg’s tone was stiff and sounded off, but Zion was too focused on what he’d just heard about the healer falling ill to question it.
"The healer fell ill?" Zion repeated, his voice rising. "Was Addison’s condition really that bad?"
Without waiting for a response, he said quickly, "I’ll go check on her myself—"
But before he could move, Beta Greg interrupted. "Alpha, please wait."
Werewolves, resilient as they were, didn’t die easily. But the scene that haunted Greg most was of a pregnant she-wolf.
