Worthless to Priceless: The Alpha's Rejected Mate のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 261 - チャプター 268

~Amelia~The map table sat in the middle of Kaden’s council room, and every side of it was loaded with folded papers, patrol markers, little red pins, and one giant board showing our territory like somebody had turned the whole pack into a chess game. Caleb was already standing on Kaden’s left, Clara had taken the seat near the back with her eyes doing that creepy calm thing they always did when she was seeing more than the rest of us, and Blake was on the opposite side of the table with his hands flat on the wood.

~Amelia~Caleb lifted a brow. “You planning to trust Blake with zero access?” he asked.Kaden’s expression turned mean in a second, and I could literally see the jealousy wake up. “Blake does not need nursery access,” I gave him a flat stare. “Nobody said he did,” I deadpanned.

Blake had asked me to review the inner defense route with him while I had Lily with Eli for the moment.I was standing over the central map table with a stack of guard notes in my hand, when Blake came in from the side hall carrying a narrower route chart and looking way too calm for somebody who had spent the last few days getting side-eyed by half the pack.He dropped the chart onto the table and said, “You got a minute, or are you still pretending you can do five jobs at once without any help?”

~Amelia~“Amelia,” Caleb’s voice crackled through my mind link, and the second I heard it, I already knew the day had gone sideways. “We’ve got movement at the west edge, and it’s not ours.”I was halfway through checking Lily’s nursery shield notes when that the news got to me, and I looked up so fast I nearly knocked the folder off the table. “How many?” I asked, and I was already walking before he answered.
