Chapter 62 Starting to Care about Her

Benjamin’s POV:

+8 Pearls

Henry and 1, along with a few Beta subordinates, finally reached the base of Moonlight Mountain. The moment we arrived, I felt Lawrence stirring restlessly within me, giving me an intense premonition.

Hayley was close.

It had been ages since I had felt this tense. The last time was probably as a kid, during those intense Alpha combat training sessions where we fought to the limits just to survive.

Now, here I was, on edge all over again, for an Omega I’d once dismissed so easily.

In this instant, I had to admit that maybe spending all this time together had changed me. Somehow, I had started to care about her.

Perhaps she’d come to feel like family, like a younger sibling I needed to protect. I couldn’t decipher it.

Yet that was a question for another time. Right now, finding her was the priority. I forced myself to focus and started organizing our approach.

On the way here, I’d studied Moonlight Mountain’s terrain. There were only two paths to the summit. One was a winding main road; the other was a narrow trail running along the mountain’s backside.

“Henry, you take a team up the main road. I’ll go up the back path. We’ll meet at the top. If anything unexpected comes up along the way and we lose signal, let’s use fireworks as our sign.”

“Got it, Ben. Be careful,” Henry replied.
