Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate

Chapter 289 Yes Commander

They approached the outer ring of the crumbled defenses of the overgrown ruin, moving as stealthily as they possibly could.

Lord Brarthroroz had been good enough to extend a barrier around the group that would keep the noise of their movement muffled and the team hidden from sight, but it was only really effective if there was no one close by to see the movements of the undergrowth around them.

So far, they hadn’t come across any scouting parties as they moved and it had mostly been plain sailing.

Lord Brarthroroz led the group with Lexi, Allen and Greyson behind him, and the rest of the ranked wolves and fighters spread across in groups of five as they walked.

As they drew closer and began to set up a field base and perimeter under the cover of the surrounding forest, Lord Brarthroroz moved a little further forward to rendezvous with the Mimic’s that had been waiting patiently for their arrival.

The other ruin they had been waiting to hear back on had turned out to be unoccupied, and that team had begun to circle back, agreeing to rendezvous with the assault force and lend what support and aid they could.

They had also received gleeful reports back from the h*andlers of the Cambion’s who had been dispatched to the Containment facility. They had managed to rescue a few shifters that had originally been part of Greyson’s team, but had been taken prisoner early on in the days before the expedition had managed to set up the defenses for their base of operations.

Although they were still in the process of clearing the various levels, the h*andlers assure Lord Brarthroroz that the Cambion’s were quite literally having the time of their lives with their victims, and the people that had been rescued so far had been escorted back to the perimeter without incident, and collected by the medical teams to arrange transportation back to the Enclave.

Lexi helped unload some of the equipment as others began to set up the medical tents and command center, with Greyson and Allen assisting in everything that they could.

She could feel Greyson’s eyes watching her as she moved around, but now was not the time to discuss personal issues between them and as he finally plucked up the courage to approach her, she sighed internally.
