Chapter 426
Selene rushed to Nyx’s side, her heart racing as she crouched down. She gently inspected Nyx’s pale face and leaned closer. “What happened to her?” she demanded, her voice thick with worry.
Storm, kneeling beside Nyx, frowned deeply. He lightly patted her cheek, his expression hard and skeptical.
“Are you faking this? Because if you are, this isn’t the time for games,” Storm said bluntly, his tone sharp.
Selene stared at him in disbelief. “Storm, she’s unconscious. This isn’t an act,” she said firmly, placing a hand on his shoulder. “Pick her up.”
Storm hesitated for a moment, clearly reluctant. But Selene’s command left him with no choice. With a heavy sigh, he scooped Nyx into his arms.
Selene followed closely as Storm carried her down the hallway, her eyes never leaving Nyx. Along the way, they passed a few maids who paused and exchanged uneasy glances.
The maids quickly rushed off, stopping in front of a large wooden door. One of them knocked urgently, rousing the occupants inside.
The door opened, and Diana appeared, her expression groggy as she rubbed her eyes. “What’s going on? Why are you knocking at this hour? Is something wrong?” she asked, her voice laced with irritation.
Before the maids could respond, Diana glanced back into the room, where Alpha Malcolm had also been awakened by the noise. His sharp gaze darted to the door.
“Let them in,” Malcolm said curtly, sitting up in bed.
Diana stepped aside, allowing the maids to enter. They quickly bowed their heads before Malcolm. “You instructed us to keep an eye on Nyx,” one of them began.
Diana’s brows furrowed in confusion, and she turned to look at her husband. “What?” she asked, her tone incredulous. “You’ve been spying on our guests? Malcolm, really? I know she’s not one of us, but this is ridiculous. Kane said she wouldn’t be here long.”
Malcolm ignored his wife’s remarks, his attention fixed solely on the maids. “What did you see?” he asked, his voice calm but commanding.
One of the maids stepped forward. “We saw her wandering around the pack house–she went to the balcony for a while. Then, she was carried out by Gamma Storm, with Luna walking alongside them.”
Both Malcolm and Diana exchanged confused glances at the mention of Storm and Selene.
“She appeared to be unconscious,” another maid added, trying to clarify. “Maybe she’s sick. Luna looked worried. They were heading to Nyx’s room.”
Malcolm’s eyes widened at the revelation, his expression hardening. He swung his legs out of bed, his movements abrupt. A low growl of frustration escaped him, his anger simmering just below the surface.
“Check to see if they’ve called a doctor,” he ordered sharply. “If they have, stop them.”
