Alpha King Chases Abandoned Luna

Chapter 229

The Alpha King is unavailable 229

I scanned the crowded terminal, searching for Emma's familiar face among the returning campers. Something in the air felt different-a scent, perhaps, or just an inexplicable feeling that made my wolf stir.

Just as I looked up, a group of elderly travelers walked past, chatting and laughing. Their tour guide, Wesley Hartman, held a small flag above his head, momentarily blocking my view of the opposite side of the terminal.

"This way, please! Stay together!" Wesley called out, his voice carrying over the airport noise.

As the group passed, I caught a glimpse of something-someone-that made my heart skip. A woman with chestnut hair, her hand clasped in another's. Before I could focus, they disappeared into the crowd.

"Daddy~!"

A sweet voice cut through my thoughts. Emma was running toward me, her blonde hair bouncing with each step, her face lit up with excitement.

I half-squatted, ignoring the twinge in my side where the scar from Olivia's knife remained, and caught Emma as she launched herself into my arms.

"Daddy, I miss you so much!" she exclaimed, wrapping her arms around my neck.

I lifted her, breathing in her familiar scent. "I missed you too, princess."

In the two years since Olivia's disappearance, Emma had become even more attached to me. What had started as Victoria's orchestration-Emma's attempts to please me-had evolved

into genuine affection. She truly saw me as her father now.

"Did you have fun at camp?" I asked, setting her down but keeping hold of her hand.

Emma nodded enthusiastically. "I won first place in the tracking competition! Miss Parker said

I have natural talent!"

Speaking of Miss Parker, the training den teacher approached us with a polite smile. "Alpha

King Stone, it's good to see you."

"Miss Parker," I acknowledged with a nod. "I trust Emma behaved herself?"

"She was exemplary," Miss Parker replied, maintaining the respectful distance appropriate when addressing an Alpha. "Her skills are developing impressively."

I noticed Emma watching this interaction with pride, her chin lifted slightly as she observed the deference shown to me by other parents who passed by. She enjoyed being the Alpha's daughter, even if not by blood.

"Thank you for taking care of her," I said to Miss Parker, who bowed slightly before departing.

Emma tugged on my hand. "Daddy, where's Mommy?"

Before I could answer, a familiar voice called out from behind us.

"Emmy!"

Emma's face lit up as she spotted Victoria. "Mommy!" She pulled me toward where Victoria sat in her wheelchair, looking elegant despite her disability.

She reached for Emma, who hugged her carefully, mindful of not disturbing her mother's

paralyzed legs.

"Don't worry," Victoria added, her voice softer as she met my gaze. "I don't care about other

people's opinions anymore."
