The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 437

Chapter 437: Chapter 437 Escort

They let the injured and the weak go first. Although some time had already passed since the battle on the front lines the night before, several were still suffering from lingering injuries. Their wolves had been pushed to the brink during the fight, too exhausted to fully heal their human bodies.

Even though the doctors had already bandaged many of them, the pain and wounds still hindered their movement. Seeing this, the others quietly stepped aside and allowed the injured to eat first.

Once the injured had finished lining up, it was the shewolves’ turn, followed by the rest of the pack. The warriors guarding the perimeter were served by the omegas, including Zion and Maxwell, who had just returned from their inspection.

Alpha Hue also took a plate for himself as he strode over to the two Alphas, leaving his wife to check on the morale and well-being of the rest of their pack members.

"Alpha Zion, Alpha Maxwell. How are you both holding up?" Alpha Hue asked as he approached the two men standing silently side by side. He didn’t need to ask much; he could see the storm of thoughts running through their minds.

Yet, because they knew their work couldn’t wait, they were pushing those concerns aside to focus on what mattered most. Still, the cold tension radiating from their bodies, the frowns etched on their brows, and the sternness in their expressions couldn’t be hidden. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Alpha Hue wasn’t intimidated. He understood that young leaders often carried such burdens. He came over to offer a moment of conversation, to ease the weight a little.

Although it was his pack being escorted to safety and, as their Alpha, he technically should have been in charge, Alpha Hue knew when to step back. The two Alphas had made the decisions, briefed him on the plan, and demonstrated far more skill in crisis management than he could muster.

As he was used to peace, he acknowledged that he was no match for their efficiency, adaptability, and leadership under pressure, so he let them take the helm while he observed and supported.

Given the situation, Alpha Hue decided it was better to let the two Alphas lead, while he took a slower, more measured approach. He focused on supporting his pack with his Luna, offering comfort and solace, especially to those who had recently lost their loved ones in the rogue attack.

Many were still grieving and needed emotional guidance. Unlike Zion and Maxwell, who were accustomed to fighting amidst bloodshed, Alpha Hue recognized that his strengths lay in the support role, providing stability and care for those who needed it most.

"Fine. How are your pack members?" Zion replied curtly, not delving into the details of the situation at the rendezvous point. His main concern was the morale of the Golden Hue Pack.

They had suffered heavy losses, and he understood how they might feel defeated in more ways than one. Even so, they were fortunate that they were not annihilated, and the locust swarm had not been unleashed, so, all things considered, their situation was holding up better than expected.

"They are doing fine. Luckily, we managed to bury the dead at the gravesite before leaving, but I guess they still won’t feel truly at peace until we perform the ceremonial ritual for the deceased..." Alpha Hue said sadly.

Since they didn’t have much time, they had only done their best to lay the dead to rest at the gravesite at the foot of the mountain. Normally, a ceremonial ritual would follow, sending the departed souls to the Moon Goddess’ embrace, allowing them to start anew in their next life.

It also served as the final farewell between the deceased and their families, the true beginning of closure.
