Pushing away these thoughts, she hurried towards the beta female who had caught her eye.
"Good afternoon. Mrs. Portia" she panted slightly. "I hope this doesn't come off as intrusive, but I'm just asking out of concern. I couldn't help but notice that the Queen was crying a few minutes ago... Do you happen to know what happened? She seemed quite distressed and, in a rush to leave the palace." "What?" Portia's expression changed, reflecting her concern and shock. "Do you have any idea where she is at the moment?" "No, ma'am, but I passed her not too long ago, so she may still be inside the palace walls," said the maid, causing Portia to nod thank you,"Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
see,
she said quickly before taking off in a sprint, desperately hoping to find Helga in the garden or at their usual spot in the pavilion where they could enjoy the fresh air. However, she searched everywhere and couldn't find her. Portia attempted to reach out to her through their mind link, but there was no response. This only heightened her worry. She had no clue what could have happened; the last thing she remembered was Helga saying she was going to the library after their teatime together. "David!" She burst into his office unexpectedly, freezing in her tracks as she saw the Alpha King sitting there with Lucian and Sierra. Her heart immediately raced, realizing that this situation might be more serious than she had anticipated. "What's happening. Your Majesty?" she asked, her eyes fixed on Siegren who appeared downcast and possibly even shedding tears. "I searched everywhere for the queen but couldn't find her
"What? What do you mean?" Sierra's forehead creased in worry. How could Helga be missing? They were just discussing the note written in her mother's handwriting and her brother's argument with his wife. Surely, Helga couldn't have disappeared without a trace. "The palace was massive; she could be anywhere inside."
"No, according to one of the royal guards, they saw her leaving the palace while riding the horse, they even tried to stop her, but she got angry. As soon as Portia spoke. Siegren sent a mind link to the royal guards, urging them to search for Helga. He then stormed out of the room in panic, leaving everyone present speechless and shocked. "What exactly is going on?" Portia's brows furrowed in frustration as she looked around the room, feeling like the only one left in the dark. She let out a heavy sigh and directed her gaze to Sierra, silently pleading for answers. Sierra, ever composed, took a deep breath before instructing David and Lucian to follow the King. "I'll handle the explanation," she stated firmly. As soon as the two gentlemen left the room, Sierra launched into a detailed account of everything her brother had told them-from how Helga had found the note, to their heated argument and possible reasons for her leaving the palace. As Sierra explained the events that had taken place, Portia's frustration grew with each word. Her thoughts spilled out of her mouth. fueled by her irritation towards the Alpha King's handling of the situation. She couldn't believe how blind and careless he had been, and it
was clear in her tone as she voiced her frustrations.
"Honestly, what was your brother even thinking? He's nothing but a coward at a time like this!" A deep frown marred Portia's features, and instead of feeling offended by her words, Sierra nodded in agreement because she, too, felt annoyed while listening to what her broth told Helga during their argument. She couldn't shake the feeling that it was ridiculous, but she also couldn't deny that she empathized with Siegren's behavior and didn't fault him for it. However, if she had to choose a side, she would undoubtedly stand by Helga. After all, her brother's actions were truly hurtful, especially since it didn't seemd the first time he had pushed his wife away instead of working together to find a solution. Chapter 96

of protecting Helga
"I mean, I understand his reason. It was frightening indeed to think that every time they mated during the full moon, he was slowly draining Helga's life force. But couldn't he have at least tried to find a better solution before outright pushing her away? Portia added, her voice laced with frustration and anger. She was tired of Siegren's dur and wanted to give him a piece of her mind right in that moment. If something were to happ because of his foolish decision in life, she wouldn't hesitate to snap him back to reality, even herself precious friend ont facing punishment
"Right" That stupid Alpha King needs a harsh lesson to understand that rejecting his wife is not the solution to his problems" Sierra said with a frown, feeling extremely irritated as well. "Let's go, we should help find Helga before it gets
Portia nodded and rose from her seat to join the P in their search for the Queen. The entire palace was in a state of chaos as they frantically searched for Helga. No one could have anticipated that something like this would happen, especially after such a joyous evening just the night before. MEANWHILE, Helga moved as quickly as she could, hoping to distract the group of warriors that were chasing her. They didn't belong to het royal pack: they seemed to be from the Silver Pack because she felt a familiar presence when she went to the hidden garden where Siegren had professed his love for her. She had hoped that visiting this place would calm her emotions and help her plan her next move. But it seemed she had only found more trouble, and now she was deep in the forest, desperately trying to conceal herself from them. "Do they think capturing me would make Miranda free from imprisonment?" She muttered, panting heavily as she looked back and saw the pack of wolves chasing after her. Panic set in as she realized some of them had already transformed into their beastly forms. She gritted her teeth, trying to focus on reaching her wolf Stella, but for some reason, she couldn't make contact with her. The sun was rapidly setting, casting long shadows over the forest floor. If she didn't transform soon, it would be nearly impossible to hide from the wolves in her human form. Her body trembled with adrenaline as she pushed herself to run faster, knowing that if they caught her, the consequences could be dire "Shit, why now?" she cursed under her breath, nearly tripping over a protruding root on the ground. Luckily, she managed to regain her balance but struggled to keep moving forward, but a loud growl and the sound of rapid footsteps, confirmed her worst fears: they were getting closer. "Damn it! Stella!" she exclaimed and to her relief, she successfully transformed into her wolf form, spinning around to face the attacking wolf. With swift movements, she lunged forward and sank her teeth into his fur, knocking him out with one powerful bite. As she released him, a fierce fire began to to burn in her veins, causing a deep growl to rumble from her throat

Looking around frantically, she searched for a way to escape. She needed to find a way out of this dangerous situation before anything else could happen to her. The thought of Siegren and the rest of the pack worrying about her only added to her urgency. And with the full moon drawing near, she knew she had to make it back to the palace before nightfall
Stella's keen eyes continued scanning her surroundings, taking in the eerie sight of more wolves emerging from the
she shadows with their fur bristling and eyes glinting with hunger and malice. Adrenaline surged through her veins as sl prepared to defend herself against the snarling pack of warriors, Suddenly, the wind picked up, whipping around her like a warning from nature itself. It was as though the elements could sense the danger and tension surrounding Stella, blending into the howls and growls of the circling wolves. Stella's intense determination blazed in her eyes as she pounced towards the closest wolf, her sharp claws slicing through the air with lethal accuracy. The wolf lunged back, trying to catch her with its powerful jaws, but Stella's quick reflexes allowed her to easily dodge the attack.
The fighting continued, their fur matted with blood and their fangs bared in a never-ending frenzy. Stella's heightened senses warned her of danger, causing her body to tense and turn instinctively. She knew something was wrong as the wolves kept multiplying, their numbers seemingly endless. The air reeked of death, and it made her stomach churn violently. She considered using her powers, but she was already weakened and knew it would take a toll on her body.
The pack of warriors quickly encircled her, their growls vibrating with anger. She was trapped, and the injuries from her earlier fight were starting to take a toll on her. The stench of death still lingered, and as the sun set, the forest became cloaked in darkness, with only the faint glow of moonlight casting shadows. With that, Helga urged Stella to flee, sensing
