Chapter 25

Hye went through the wall, as everyone stood there shock. One minute pass. Two minutes pass. Five minutes pass. Yet, hye and Janeiro were nowhere to be seen. "Hye..?" Damon called, hoping to hear a reply from Janeiro or Hye. Worry when he heard nothing from either of them.

"Hyuk-Jae?" Alex said. Hoping to hear something from his mate.

Yet as another minute passed, Alex was getting desperate to hear from his mate. "Fuck this. I'm going in-" "Alex-"

"No. I'm going in- My mate- He is in there, probably In danger. I need to go in." Alex replied with a desperate tone. As Alex went to go through the wall, Ross grabbed his arm, "Alexander, we need to think this through."

"No. I'm sorry Ross, but I'm going to save my mate." With a harsh tug of Arm, Alex was free from Ross's strong grip and quickly throw himself through the wall.

Damon was biting his lip nervously, as he watches Ross's expression. "Fuck." The alpha turned to look at the remaining people, who were Omar, Angela, and his precious mate- Damon.

"We have to go in-" "No, Alpha!" Damon grabs Ross's Arm, "I don't think it's safe-Maybe we should- I don't know- Wait here or-or I don't know!" Damon begged his mate. He was terrified, he wasn't sure what to expect from there or if they would get out at all. He has to think of the pup that's inside of him. "Think of the pup! What if we don't get out from there?" Damon said in a desperate tone.

Omar looked at Damon, then looked at Ross, Then look at Angela who was already staring at him. Before Angela looked back at the couple. "But if we stay here, we might be in bigger danger. We don't know what this forest has in store for us, so perhaps going inside might be better, we can have shelter there plus maybe there is an exit to get out of the place." Omar nodded as Ross was lost deep in taught. Maybe going in could be safer for them, but then again, It could also be equally as danger than being here outside, if not, more so. Yet, Ross couldn't help but think of his pack mates that were inside of this castle, maybe waiting for them, or needed help.

Damon shook his head as he heard what Ross was thinking.

"No! But Janeiro, Hye, and Alex would have already gotten outta there!" Damon hold his stomach, as he felt a slight pain, yet, he was terrified for his Alpha to go in. "I get that we can't leave them there but we also can't go in there without a plan!" He whimpers softly, as he tighten his hold on Ross's arm, as the pain was starting to become a bit more uncomfortable. "Damon." Ross said, as he saw the discomfort on his mate.

"Calm down, you have to relax for the pup-" "I AM THINKING OF THE PUP!" Startled as Damon yelled at him, "THAT'S WHY I DON'T WANT US TO GO!" finally crying, as a single tear fell from his beg, expressive eyes.

"Damon"

Omar said, as he approach the couple. Ross glaring at him, yet ignoring that, he approached the trembling Omega, "If we stay here, the forest will kill us- especially since we are alone. If we go in, we can find the others, and together, we are stronger than being away from each other." He ruffed the omega hair, before Ross slapped his hand away from his pregnant mate. Omar glared back at the Alpha. "Maybe that's what the forest want. To separate us so that we are an easier target." Angela said. Damon shook his head, as he cries, placing his head on the Alpha side, "but..." he whimpers quietly, "What if we don't get out?" "I promise you that we will. Baby," Grabbing his chubby face, he turn his face to face him, "The elder said that we have to find that book and then destroy it. Once we do that, the forest will let us out." Hopefully, it'll be like that. Ross thought but didn't say anything, in hopes that Damon will go in and hopefully, be in a safer place than being out in the open.
