The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 580

Chapter 580: Chapter 580 Telling Them The Truth At Last 2

Leon had forcefully chosen her as his mate through a ritual that had been acknowledged, and even approved, by his own God. Whether she liked it or not, they were now tied together by something far more complicated than a simple alliance. At least for now, that bond prevented Leon from directly harming her.

And because of that, Addison decided to take the risk.

For the time being, she could trust him.

For the time being, she could consider him someone standing on her side.

So, instead of hiding the truth from him and creating more suspicion between them, Addison decided to tell all of them.

She said nothing else as she continued walking through the palace, her footsteps echoing softly through the quiet halls.

Behind her, her mates exchanged puzzled looks, clearly wondering what Addison was planning. Still, none of them questioned her. One after another, they simply followed behind her in silence.

Zion looked around, and the more he took in their surroundings, the stronger the sense of familiarity became.

He had been here before.

As Addison continued leading them toward the back of the Royal Palace, Zion’s gaze eventually landed on the vast lake ahead. His steps unconsciously slowed.

If his memory served him right, this was the exact place.

Back then, when he first came here, he had discovered a strange barrier surrounding a piece of land near the lake. Whatever was inside had immediately caught his attention, and he had tried everything he could to get through, but in the end, he hadn’t been able to breach it.

And now, Addison was leading them straight back to that very place.

For some reason, Zion’s heart began pounding so hard against his chest that it almost hurt. An unfamiliar sense of anticipation mixed with unease coiled inside him, tightening with every step they took.

At the same time, Shura began pacing restlessly inside his mind.

Back and forth.

Back and forth.

The creature’s agitation only made Zion more nervous.

"What’s wrong with you? Can you stop pacing around like that?" Zion snapped internally, already on edge. Seeing Shura act so restless only made the uneasy feeling in his chest grow stronger.

He felt as though something was waiting for them beyond that barrier.

And judging by the way Shura was reacting, whatever it was had something to do with them.

"I can’t help it," Shura growled, its voice carrying a hint of agitation. "I’m nervous. I started feeling it the moment we arrived in this place. It’s the same feeling I had before... as if something important to me is here. Something is waiting inside, but I can’t explain what it is..."

"Tsk." Zion clicked his tongue inside his mind.

He wasn’t actually annoyed with Shura. The problem was that he was just as restless.

Shura’s agitation was getting under his skin, rubbing against his already frayed nerves until Zion couldn’t tell whether the uneasiness in his chest belonged to him or his wolf inside his mind.

And he didn’t know why.

The deeper they went down the path, the heavier the feeling became.

Dread slowly crawled beneath his skin.

Then Addison suddenly stopped.

Zion’s eyes narrowed.

They were standing right in front of the invisible barrier that had stopped him before.

The very barrier he had failed to enter no matter what he tried.

Addison slowly extended her hand and pressed her palm against empty air.

Ripples immediately spread across the invisible barrier.

Everyone could see it now.

The space in front of them distorted, the surface trembling like the calm water of a lake after a stone had been thrown into it.

Zion’s heartbeat grew louder.

Thump.

Thump.

Thump.

Addison stood silently before the barrier, her hand still resting against its surface. She then took one long, heavy breath, her chest rising before she slowly exhaled.

It was as though she was making one final decision.

As though she was forcing herself to bury whatever emotions she was feeling and prepare herself for what was about to happen.

Then, without another word, Addison took out a token.

The moment she activated it, the barrier reacted.

A small opening slowly appeared before them, tearing through the invisible wall and creating just enough space for everyone to pass through.

Zion’s body instinctively tensed.

Shura had gone completely silent. For the first time since they arrived, the restless creature inside his mind had stopped pacing. And that silence somehow made Zion even more nervous.
