The Witch and Her Four Dangerous Alphas

Chapter 59

Chapter 59: Chapter 59: The Wet Nurse Of Miss Selene

"We’ve sent out thirty-four search teams in a month," Kael murmured, quieter now. "Fifteen went down the cliffside. The others scattered through the bordering forest and river basin. Nothing. Not even a scent trail. It’s like she was erased."

"She wasn’t," Aeron said.

His eyes finally opened.

And when they did, they were glowing, but not with power. But pain...pure, unfiltered, soul-ripping pain.

"She’s still out there. I know it."

"Then where is she?" Aeron? he asked, voice breaking. "If she’s alive—why hasn’t she come back? Why hasn’t she tried to reach us?"

Aeron didn’t answer.

Because he already knew.

She hadn’t come back because she didn’t want to. Because she would rather face death alone than fall into their arms again.

And gods, they couldn’t even blame her.

"I’ll send another team tomorrow," Kael said quietly.

But the words had barely left his mouth when a knock filled with urgency echoed at the door.

All four alphas stiffened; every knock felt like it would bring the news of her.

Before they could respond, the door creaked open and Cyrus stepped in. He looked like he hadn’t slept in days...eyes shadowed, shoulders heavy with exhaustion. His clothes were wrinkled, his hair damp with sweat, and he moved like a man running on sheer will alone. But he wasn’t alone.


An old woman followed behind. She was omega, hunched with age, her graying hair braided and tucked beneath a worn scarf. Her clothes were plain, her scent faint but familiar in a way none of them could place.
