Madeline’s P.O.V. (Continued)We heard heavy thuds of paws and footsteps with roars of engines.At the same time, the air filled with the nasty smell of rotten flesh and eggs, indicating a large number of rogues coming towards us.“The pack is on attack.” I roared through the mind-link, including the whole pack.“You need to stay behind, Maddi.” Mom yelled at me, but I didn’t listen to her.All I saw was Nathan and Adolphus running at a high speed on either of the third car, rogues jumping on them from all sides out of nowhere.Without wasting a second, I started shooting continuously at whoever I saw lunging at Adolphus and the warrior on his side.Mom, standing beside me, started shooting rogues lunging at Nathan at the same time.“Damn it. They brought an army.” Frederick muttered, but I didn’t pay attention to them.I felt a pressure at the back of my mind, but I didn’t open the mind-link.I was still recuperating and opening the mind-link would be a distraction and rogues were po
Madeline’s P.O.V.“Everything will be okay, Maddie. They are on their way here, and your dad has already met them halfway.” Mom tried to comfort me, but I didn’t know why I was so anxious.“Yeah… I know, Mom. They are trained to face situations worse than this,” I replied, trying to sound calm, but my voice shook.She chuckled and gave me a side hug, rubbing my arm lightly.We were at the border station to receive them. We had our medical team also, as a few of both our and the Royal Warriors were injured. This is what Nathan told us when he called me half an hour ago.He didn’t tell me anything about Adolphus and they were still too far to be contacted through mind-link.He told me that they succeeded in capturing three vampires, and they were bringing them with them.I don’t know how they succeeded in capturing them, but according to what he last said, two rogue vampires were following them.Rogue vampires were just like rogue wolves. Their thirst for blood is different from vampire
Adolphus’s P.O.V. (Continued)“Can I do that?” I asked Onyx, surprised by what he asked.“What’s wrong with trying it? We don’t have time. Just try to mind-link him,” he insisted irritably.I immediately took a breath and concentrated on finding his aura.It was difficult, almost impossible, because I and Prince Sylvester weren’t from the same pack, but we were both alphas by blood.I cleared my mind of all thoughts and concentrated on finding a strong aura.It took me some time, but soon, I felt a faint pulse.It startled me too, but it made me happy at the same time.He must be at some distance. That’s why I couldn’t feel it strongly, but the pulse was there.“Prince Sylvester. Can you hear me?” I asked him respectfully, anxious but hopeful.To my dismay, I didn’t get any reply.“Don’t be discouraged. Keep going on. You are not from his pack, and of course, he is the prince of werewolves. How can he open his mind for a random mind-link?” Onyx comforted, giving a valid reason.“Alrig
Adolphus’s P.O.V.“Why do you think that they don’t want Prince to be here?” Nathan asked me while he drove the car towards the Light Shadow Pack.“No idea, brother. If random rogues attacked him, I would say that they just wanted to kill the royal heir, nothing else, but that was a planned attack, meticulously planned and sharply executed.” I replied to him with a serious gaze, looking out of the pack.“He will be there in half an hour. Shall we go to the pack or wait for them here?” he asked me again while stopping the car at the side of the road, almost half a mile before the Light Shadow Pack.We had already given them our information of arrival and also the license plates of our vehicles so that they wouldn’t take us as a threat.I clenched my jaw while thinking about whether to follow the plan that we had finalized or to be extra cautious."What is it, Adolphus? You looked troubled." He asked me worriedly and I clicked my tongue.“If…. If vampires and witches are involved, it’s
Madeline’s P.O.V. (Continued)“The Moon Goddess made me your second chance mate because she knows that I am worthy of you, princess. We…. We both are powerful and capable enough to keep our pack protected from all the dangers. We are not only a good team but a perfect team. I can’t love anyone else when I love you all my life, even when there was no mate bond between us.” The corners of his eyes reddened, making me feel a sharp pain in my chest.No retort, no excuse came into my mind.It seemed as if my mind went numb at that very instant when the pain hit my heart.He was suffering.Because of me.I put my head on his chest and wrapped my hands around his neck.His heart was now beating furiously, and my emotions were completely messed up.I couldn’t even decide whether I should be happy or sad after hearing his confession.To be honest, I always had a crush on him too.So, I should be happy that my crush wasn’t one-sided.Adolphus liked me too and even wished to be my mate just like
Madeline’s P.O.V. (Continued)I sniffed and blinked harder, not letting my tears fall.I had already cried too much for my bad luck.That’s enough for this lifetime.I closed my eyes and threw out all the negative thoughts that had occupied my mind in the past few days.I guess staying idle all the time is the main reason that I am so depressed now.“I can’t be like this. My family supported me and took care of me so well, and they never let me think myself inferior to anyone. Even Luna Hailey and Alpha Lucifer helped me build what I am today. I can’t ruin their efforts and hard work on me,” I gave a pep talk to myself in my heart.That’s right. I am Madeline Summer, the beloved daughter of Beta Albert Summers and Rita Summers. Both of them are one of the best beta couples, and I won’t let this inferiority complex take over me.I might not be that formidable, but I am their daughter. I was born with their agility and skills.I smiled happily and sighed in satisfaction.I heard a knock
