The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 357

Chapter 357: Chapter 357 Want For Revenge

And once they became rogues, whatever shred of humanity they had left would rot away until all that remained was bloodlust and chaos. That was why most Alphas showed no mercy; rogues were killed on sight.

"Kill them all!" he growled, his voice reverberating through the pack link as he mindlinked his Beta. "Evacuate the non-combatants and protect the Luna. I’ll hunt the rogues with the warriors!"

Only in times like this did his full, domineering Alpha presence truly awaken.

"Roger that, Alpha. Please take care."

Alpha Hue’s Beta replied through the mindlink before quickly turning to organize the evacuation. He ushered the pack members toward the Packhouse and stationed several warriors around it to form a defensive perimeter.

However, as he barked orders, a flicker of concern crossed his mind; the mages maintaining the barrier around the field where the locust swarm was being contained would be left vulnerable at this time.

It seemed the Alpha, too focused on slaughtering the incoming rogues, had forgotten to issue any command regarding their protection.

Fortunately, he remembered just in time. He immediately assigned several of the more promising warriors to head to the fields and guard the mages. Thankfully, Arch Mage Elric was among them, which eased some of his worries. For now, his priority was to ensure everyone else’s safety within the pack.

Meanwhile, the sudden uproar had already reached Levi, Maxwell, and Lance, who were each stationed at different borders. The distant howls and the faint sounds of battle made them tense, their instincts sharpening in response.

But none of them dared to abandon their posts. The attack from the northeast, Zion’s former patrol area, now under Maxwell’s watch, could easily be a diversion. The rogues had already proven how coordinated they could be, far from the disorganized beasts most Alphas assumed them to be.

So, instead of rushing toward the commotion, they reinforced their patrols and tightened their defenses, fully alert for any signs of a secondary assault.

More than that, before leaving, Zion had warned the three about what he overheard during his scouting trip along the evacuation route for the first batch of refugees. He mentioned a gray wolf named Chase and the whispers of a planned attack.

Although Zion didn’t know the full details of Chase and Greg’s scheme, he suspected the worst. So, he took no chances; he reinforced their defenses and alerted the others, ensuring everyone would be prepared for any sudden assault.

That was why they had set up so many traps around the borders. And now that the attack had truly come, none of the three was caught off guard. Instead, their expressions hardened, their auras turning sharp and murderous. Fortunately, they had managed to hasten their work and send Addison away before the battle began.

However, what they didn’t know was that Greg had already prepared for both outcomes. If Addison stayed in the Golden Hue Pack until the assault, their Plan B would activate from within. But if she left early, she would walk straight into another trap, the one involving the ogres and goblins she and Zion had already faced and barely survived.

"That damn Greg really showed up..." Levi snarled, his jaw tightening as he ordered his warriors to reinforce the patrol around their perimeter.

Maxwell, who was responsible for guarding both flanks of the border, was under the most strain; his team had far more ground to cover than either Lance’s or Levi’s. But even Lance, who seemed to have it easier on the surface, was under heavy pressure. His section was closest to the field where the locust swarm was being contained, making him a likely target for Greg’s men.

Right now, neither Levi nor Maxwell could afford to send him any support, because they were both too busy holding their own lines.

Levi was the most enraged of them all. He’d seen what Greg had done to Addison, the way she’d come back from the dungeon, and he hadn’t forgotten how close Greg had come to killing him when he demanded Addison’s whereabouts. Now the chance for payback burned inside him.

"Just wait. I’ll gut him," Levi murmured, low and hard, his eyes flashing. The wolf within him surfaced; the animal’s heat slid through Levi’s gaze like steel.

"We’ll make him pay, twice over," the wolf growled in Levi’s mind, the words coiling like a spring. Levi felt the anger thud in his chest, a contained, furious force waiting to be unleashed.

"Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten what he did," Levi told the wolf in his head, a cold smile cutting across his face. "It’s almost convenient he came to us on his own; saved us the trouble of hunting him down."
