A Broken Alpha Heiress' Revenge novel Chapter 67

Chapter 67

Third Person’s POV

A few more days passed. That morning, the rain in Mooncrest finally stopped.

Back in the Stormridge Pack from Northhaven, Matriarch Duskgrave could hardly stay seated.

“Mrs. Beck, is it still raining in Mooncrest?” she asked impatiently.

“No more rain,” Mrs. Beck replied with a smile, clearly reading the Matriarch’s excitement.

“Then let’s go! If we leave now, we’ll arrive by noon. I can finally see my future granddaughter–in–law this afternoon!” she beamed.

Just thinking about the girl who had managed to make Lucien–the stoic Alpha Prince–fall in love made Matriarch Duskgrave feel younger.

A she wolf who could melt Lucien’s cold heart must be obedient, well–mannered, and incredibly rare.

“Everything’s ready, Matriarch. Let’s set off, Mrs. Beck said, gently helping her up.

The two departed immediately. The whole journey, Matriarch Duskgrave couldn’t stop talking about Riley–her voice light with joy, lips curled into a constant smile.

But once they arrived in Mooncrest, joy quickly turned to disappointment–Matriarch Duskgrave fell ill from the sudden climate change.

She was old, after all, and her body couldn’t handle the strain.

Mrs. Beck grew anxious. “Matriarch, shall we call the young Alpha to pick you up?”

“No!” she waved a hand. “What if Riley comes with him and sees me like this? Pale, bedridden/weak–what kind of first impression would that be? She’ll think Lucien’s a clingy boy tied to his granny. What if she backs off? Lucien’s not the kind to fall in love twice!”

Mrs. Beck blinked. “It can’t be that serious”

“It is. We can’t lose her. We finally have a Luna candidate. I’ll never forgive myself if I scare her away.”

With that, she insisted, “Let’s go to Mooncrest First Pack Hospital. Once I’m recovered, we’ll call Lucien. I want to meet her at my best.”

Mrs. Beck had no choice but to help her toward the hospital, while the Matriarch muttered, “Curse these old bones, messing up such a precious moment.”

Riley’s POV

The past few days had been… peaceful.

My head injury had almost healed. I should’ve been discharged already, but I wasn’t ready to go back to that suffocating place -the Ebonclaw Pack estate. Not yet.

So I stayed.

I lay there, staring blankly out the window, just watching the gray sky part to reveal fading sunlight.

Two nurses came in to change my bandages

When they peeled the gauze away, I didn’t flinch. Pain didn’t register anymore. I’d long since learned to ignore it.

As they worked, they chatted, assuming I wasn’t listening

“A muracle, truly”

“Right? Five years.

back.”

“Won’t be long before she fully recovers.”

I turned so fast, one of them jumped.

“Did I hurt you?”

I locked eyes with her. “The girl you’re talking about… is her name Tessa Blackmaw?”

They blinked in surprise. “How did you know?”

I couldn’t breathe.

“Are you okay?” one asked, clearly startled.

Five years of lies.

Five years of pain.

Now, Tessa was awake. She could speak. She could tell the truth.

I had just stood up when Mia walked in carrying a thermal lunch container.

“Mia, Tessa’s conscious. She can prove I didn’t lure her into the Black Forest with fake messages that night at the Halston Academy banquet, It was Scarlett.”

“But Riley the Duskcliff family still blames you. If they find you near her room, they night think you’re trying to harm her

Then realization hut me like thunder.

If I knew then Scarlett might know too.

And Scarlett She’d kill to keep Tessa silent.

I have to get there before she does. Tessa needs protection. She’s not safe”

Mia looked at me, worry in her eyes, but she nodded. “I’m

We ran

But just as we reached Tessa’s room, someone blocked the door.

I froze.

The Ebonclaw Pack’s driver. Scarlett’s personal lackey.

The same man who drove me to the auction. The one who’s served her since she was a pup.

If he was here… then Scarlett was already inside..

My rage boiled over.

1 stepped forward, voice like steel. “Move.”

He didn’t.

He just stared down at me with scorn in his eyes and sneered like I was dirt under his booL

Scarlett was ahead of me.

Again.
