The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 491

Chapter 491: Chapter 491 Discussion For Their Next Step 2

She continued, her gaze unwavering. "But right now, he’s our best option. Having someone on the inside, someone who can keep an eye on the enemy, gives us a chance to avoid dangers we might not otherwise see."

Addison exhaled softly. "Our enemies already have countless eyes following our every move. It’s only fair that we have one on their side as well. We may not yet know who our true enemy is, but this is far better than walking blindly as we did before."

Now was the best time to show her stance about Chase in front of her other mates, so Addison didn’t hesitate to say all this.

Zion clenched his teeth, forcing down the surge of displeasure rising in his chest. He knew his ego was at fault, stirred by the sudden appearance of another man who had become Addison’s mate, and worse, one who was already playing a crucial role in helping her.

Compared to that, Zion couldn’t help but feel useless; unlike Chase, he was still struggling to figure out how best to protect and support her. Chase’s arrival had thrown that insecurity back to him.

Even so, reason prevailed. Addison was right. Having someone positioned on the enemy’s side, someone acting as their eyes, was far better than walking blindly through a minefield laid by unseen foes. At the very least, it gave them a chance to map the dangers ahead and plan a path around them.

With that realization, Zion said nothing. Levi and Maxwell followed suit, each quietly weighing Chase’s role in their next move.

"You have a point, Addie," Maxwell said after a moment. "We’ll follow your directives. That said, it would still be wiser for us to remain here for now and refine our next steps before returning to the Royal Capital."

He continued evenly, "We’re not trying to stop you from informing your parents; on the contrary, they absolutely deserve to know the truth so they can prepare on their end. What we’re suggesting is that we stay here while they work quietly in the capital."

"Once we’ve settled things on our side and have a clearer plan in place, we can return. By then, the enemy’s attention will likely be fixed on us, giving your parents room to act discreetly, while redistributing forces and strengthening defenses where needed."

Maxwell looked to her. "What do you think?"

Addison understood what Maxwell was trying to say; she truly did.

Still, she couldn’t stop worrying about her children. When she had left them, they had been running fevers, and since then she hadn’t had a single chance to check on them. Her mission in the western part of the kingdom had left her with no choice but to keep her distance.

It wasn’t that she didn’t miss them. It was because she missed them too much. She was terrified that any attempt to reach out might expose them. It would have been one thing if Zion or her other mates knew, but what if the enemy found out?

That fear was the reason she had kept silent all this time, never mentioning them, never trying to contact them, no matter how badly her heart ached.

This was the first time she had ever been so far away from her children since they were born. Wanting to return to them, yet being unable to do so, left her restless and uneasy, and she knew that feeling was only natural.

"Alright, I’ll take charge of this matter, so you can rest assured, and rest well," Levi said, setting the bowl of fish soup aside. He ruffled Addison’s hair gently, noticing that something weighed on her mind. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
