THE ALPHA’S DAUGHTER 98_When The Moon Hides Her Crown

Chapter 98 Where Is Going On?

 RONAN

 The world had vanished in a howl of wind and white. The e sky turned ck too fast. One second, the fire crackled, Alphas fought, and then–chaos.

 A screeching wind that pierced bone. Branches ripped through the sky. Dirt lifted in spirals. It was the kind of storm that didn’t just fall. it actually attacked.

 I barely made it beneath the rock overhangs near the slope, shoved back by Alpha Jude himself. He was already on edge due to Grace’s safety. She had refused to return to the Academy with others and was stubborn enough to stay with him.

 I couldn’t argue. I couldn’t resist.

 Couldn’t see.

 My eyes had snapped shut against the dirt and ash whipping through the air. Every breath filled with dust. Every sound drowned out by wind. My hands scraped rock as I crouched under the ledge, but I didn’t feel the sting.

 All I tried to feel Seraphina. My wolf got anxious when he could not sense her.

 Where the hell was she?

 My hands curled into fists as I tried to rey it, thest image in my mind. She was fighting Ryker, blindfolded. And then

 strom….

 Nothing.

 Every second under that overhang was a cage of iron, and I was the wild thing trapped inside.

 I couldn’t breathe without knowing where she was.

 I didn’t care if the sky cracked open and dropped mountains, I’d find her. I had to. Or my wolf would lose his mind. I never felt this kind of loss before in my entire life but for this girl…the girl that I had met barely two months ago, my wolf was agitated over her absence.

 The wind began to weaken, softening into cruel gusts rather than an unrelenting scream. That was all the permission I

 needed.

 I surged out from under the rocks just as movement flickered from the far slope.

 another cover point, brushing dust off their shoulders.

 Finn and Asher were climbing out from

 From the opposite side, Reed and Cassius emerged too, coughing, hair windswept, looking shaken but whole. They seem to have failed to escape and return to the Academy like others. 

 Finn’s voice came first, tight with urgency.

 “I don’t see Seth anywhere.”

 “What do you mean? Alpha Jude appeared just behind me, eyes sharp, coat pping as he stepped forward with Grace following hum closely. “Where could Alpha Seth be if not here?”

 Asher scared the field of broken trees and twisted ground “Ryker’s gone too. He definitely did not return to the academy 

 like others.

 Alpha Jude’s expression darkened. “What the fuck is going on here?”

 Then Reed, who was looking toward the distant treeline, spoke next. “They were fighting near the waterfall’s edge could they have fallen from there?”

 My jaw nghtened whale Fum rushed to the cliff at lighting speed.

 Cassius added. “Or probably blew away with the storms

 My world appeared in my eyes snapping at his secret smile.

 Only the thought of the possibility of that split my mind open like an axe. I didn’t even realize I’d moved until my boots were pounding against the wet earth, toward the edge, where the roaring falls churned violently below.

 “Seth!!” Finn was already there, scanning the steep cliff.

 Asher was close behind, shouting over the wind. “Seth Darven, where are you?”

 Alpha Jude followed fast, barked an order at someone behind us to report back to the Academy.

 Bur L

 I stood there, frozen.

 Not from fear.

 From the violent, inhuman need to roar and let my wolf take over.

 If she fell, if Ryker….

 “THERE’S SOMEONE!” 

 Cassius‘ voice rang out like a gunshot behind us.

 We all turned.

 Near the edge of the clearing, beneath a broken tree an Alpha was pinned, partially buried under heavy branches, coughing but alive.

 Alpha Jude was already rushing over.

 “Are you alright?” he asked as he crouched beside the fallen Alpha. 

 “I–I’m okay,” the Alpha gasped, clutching his leg.

 Grace quickly knelt down and checked, “His foot’s trapped. It’s not crushed.” saying that he called, “Alpha Casius, Alpha Reed, pleasee and help him.”

 Cassius and Reed were there in seconds, helping Alpha Jude lift the thick, splintered log. With a few grunts, they managed to drag him free.

 The Alpha was saved and panting, but his eyes widened suddenly.

 “There were two more.”

 Everyone stilled and roy wolf’s ears perked up.

 I turned to him sharply. “Where?”

 The injured Alpha lifted a shaking hand and pointed.

 “There_under that pile of trees. I saw them fall there before everything went dark”

 My head snapped at that side at lightning speed. Could it be her?

 My body moved before my thoughts did.

 Threw myself at the Twisted pile of trees like a madman-

 The trunks were thack, older, heavy things, their roots ripped from the earth in the storm’s fury.

 SETH DARVENI

 My voice ripped from any throat, raw desperate.

 11.56 AM

 Chapter 98 Where Is Going On?

 I tore at the wood, dragging a branch as thick as my chest out of the way, heart mming like war drums.

 “SETH““”

 “SETH DARVEN![”

 No answer. There was only silence

 I didn’t stop

 Didn’t hesitate

 Another trunk rolled free under my strength. My shoulders burned. My knuckles bled. I didn’t care.

 She’s in there. She has to be.

 I tossed one more log aside when I felt a presence at my side.

 Asher dropped beside me.

 Then Finn.

 Neither said a word at first. They just started helping. Lifting. Grunting. Straining.

 Asher asked. “Is he in here!

 I nodded once, sharp and sure. “He’s definitely in here.”

 Finn hesitated, panting. “But–what if he fell too? In the waterfall! You didn’t see-

 “He didn’t.” I groaned.

 I tossed another massive branch aside with a roar, feeling my bones scream beneath the strain, Finn me my

 me my eyes. “How can you be so sure?”

 Asher had the same question in his eyes. Breathing hard, and controlling the rage of my wolf, I stared down at the pile of the

 trees.

 Sise could not have fallen into the waterfall. She would do anything but would never let that happen. I knew it…because….

 The water would wash away her disguise,” my wolf stated in my mind.

 We both looked at the trees where we felt Seraphina. But why was her heartbeating so abnormally?

 A very bad feeling arose in my chest when I recalled she was not alone. Ryker was there too.

 My fists clenched. “What was going on in there between them?”
