Defy The Alpha(s)

Chapter 623: Fight For His Son

The room fell silent, the tension thick enough to choke on. Caspian felt a great anger swell inside him, and for

the first time, he wanted to defy Elijah’s orders.

Then, without warning, the door burst open and Christian stepped in, looking flustered. "Your Majesty," he said

breathlessly, "we can’t find Violet Purple."

"What?" Elijah thought he had heard wrong. Then, almost immediately, his cold gaze shifted to Caspian.

Caspian saw that look and went pale. He already knew what the Alpha King was thinking.

"I don’t know where she is," he denied quickly, agitation flickering in his eyes.

Christian added quickly, "Not just her, Your Majesty, both Alaric Storm and Griffin Hale are missing as well."

The light in Elijah’s eyes turned glacial. A muscle ticked in his jaw as he slowly rose to his feet, his dark Alpha

aura filling the room.

"What did you just say?" His voice cout cold and lethal.

Even Christian swallowed hard. "I—I can’t find any of the boys, not to mention Violet Purple."

Elijah turned to Caspian. The older Alpha tried to stand tall, but cold sweat rolled down his temples.

"Where are they?" Elijah demanded.

"Are you suggesting | hid them, Your Majesty?" Caspian shot back, meeting his gaze. "Even ten years ago, when

you demanded my son be handed over to Patrick for testing, my wife and | obeyed without question. So why

would | withhold him from you now?"

For a long moment, both Alphas locked eyes, neither blinking, the tension suffocating. Then Elijah broke it off

and turned to Christian. "Turn the pack upside down. Search every inch of this territory. And contact Irene, tell

her that if this is sploy to undermine my authority again, my patience has snapped thin. She won't like what

comes next if | find those kids myself."

"As you wish, Your Majesty." Christian bowed quickly and hurried out.

With Christian gone, it was just Elijah and Caspian again, and this time, the North Alpha’s pulse pounded as the

Alpha King’s calculating gaze lingered on him.

Where the hell were those kids? What the hell were they planning?

If only they’d told him about their escape beforehand, he could've suggested better hiding spots. Now they were

out there on their own.

He only hoped they knew what they were doing.

Elijah lifted his head, his tone thick with accusation. "Where is your wife being kept, or have you moved her as

well?"

"She's in the healing wing, Your Majesty," Caspian answered tightly, resisting the urge to punch him square in

the face. How had he never realized until now that Elijah was a bully, and a grade-A asshole in a crown?

Maybe he'd been too absorbed in his inventions to notice the tyrant ruling over them.

It was a miracle no one in the North Pack had challenged his rule, considering how detached he'd been. But

perhaps the pack’s prosperity, and a lightning-wielding heir like Alaric, had been enough to keep rebellion at bay.

Moreover, Caspian wasn’t exactly weak. He just hadn't been interested in power.

But that ended now. He'd balance both the scientist and the Alpha in him.

But first, he'd find his son and his mate.

Elijah moved toward the door, and Caspian instinctively made to follow.

"I can find my way around," Elijah said without turning, the sharpness in his tone making Caspian stop mid-step.

Of course, Caspian wanted to argue, but the words died in his throat. He didn’t trust the Alpha king around his

wife, scratch that, Zara, his ex-wife. But perhaps, if there was anyone who deserved to be in Elijah’s overbearing

presence, then it was her.

So he stayed back, listening as his footsteps faded down the hall, silence falling in the room once more.

A few seconds later, the door creaked open again, and Ace rushed in, eyes wide with panic. "Father," he

whispered urgently, "I know where Alaric and the others are."

Caspian’s head snapped up, and his pulse spiked. He glanced instinctively toward the closed door, his heart

pounding.

"Cwith me," he hissed, grabbing Ace by the arm. He dragged him into the bathroom and twisted the tap on

full blast.

Elijah wasn’t stupid. Caspian was sure he’d left someone behind to keep watch. And with how that man

operated, there was no guarantee someone wasn’t standing right outside that door, eavesdropping. The running

water would drown out whatever they said.

"Where are they?" Caspian asked lowly, his eyes hard.

Ace swallowed. "I—I don’t know exactly."

Caspian’s expression darkened. "What do you mean you don’t know?"

Caspian frowned, his mind trying to piece things together.

"She pushed Violet into the portal," Ace continued, "and then Griffin and Alaric went in after her. The portal

closed right after."

For a moment, Caspian just stared at

his son, too stunned to speak. A

A muscle ticked in Caspian’s jaw. "You're sure?"

Ace nodded quickly. "Positive. | tried to get closer, but it vanished before | reached it."

Caspian rubbed his temples, exhaling hard. A damn portal. That meant magic was at work. If that was true, then

they were out of reach.

And Elijah was going to lose his mind if he learned that.

Caspian looked at the door again, paranoia twisting in his gut. "Don’t tell anyone what you saw," he warned him.

"Not a word, Ace.

If Elijah finds out they're gone from this pack, he'll stop at nothing to get to them. Perhaps, this little break is

what they needed, after all."

Ace swallowed and nodded.
