Hiding His Alpha Twins novel Chapter 55

Catarina’s POV

"Mindy, tell me. Is there not a hidden door in case of emergencies?"

Mindy's eyes widened slightly, and she glanced around nervously before speaking. "I... I can't say for sure," she replied cautiously. "There have been rumours, whispers of a hidden door, but it's mostly speculation. No one knows for sure.

"Ok. Mindy, we must find out. We can't afford to be trapped here if something goes wrong."

My heart raced as I looked at Mindy, her eyes filled with uncertainty. We had been trapped in the safe room, but staying there indefinitely was not an option.

Danger loomed outside, threatening the safety of my precious twins, Nadia and Nathan.

We needed to escape the clutches of my old pack, who would stop at nothing to claim the children since their father was the alpha of our old pack.

Convincing Mindy to leave the safe room, however, was no easy task. She was loyal to the King's orders, but this was my twin's lives at stake.

"Mindy, you're scared, but we can't hide forever. The twins are not safe here," I pleaded, my voice tinged with urgency and desperation. "We must leave the kingdom to keep them out of harm's way."

I searched around, touching every wall and moving furniture until I found it. Underneath the chest of drawers was the door to our freedom.

"Open it," I told her as I pulled my twins close.

"Mummy, where are we going?" Nathan looked up at me, and I stroked his hair from his eyes.

"We are going on an adventure. Stay close to me, and don't let go of your sister's hand. Not even for a second." I told him, and he nodded. Nadia held her hand out to her brother, and they looked so innocent.

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Mindy's face paled as she clutched the door handle tightly. The weight of the decision we had to make hung heavily in the room. She whispered, her voice filled with fear, "But Catarina, we have protection here. What if we step outside and something goes wrong? We can't lose the twins."

I took Mindy's hands in mine, the gravity of the situation urging me to find the right words to convince her that our only chance of ensuring the twins' safety was leaving the safe room.

"I know this is terrifying," I said, my voice filled with empathy. "But we are vulnerable here. My old pack will relentlessly pursue us. We are trapped, and we cannot defend the twins indefinitely. It's time to act, Mindy. We have a chance to escape through the underground tunnels, far from the reach of our enemies."

Fear flashed in Mindy's eyes as she contemplated the risks. "What if we're caught? What if your old pack finds us?"

I squeezed her hands gently, willing her to understand the importance of our choice. "We will be cautious, Mindy. I won't allow anything to happen to Nadia and Nathan. But if we remain here, paralysed by fear, their safety will be compromised. We must fight for their lives and our own, even if it means sacrificing everything we know."

Mindy hesitated momentarily, the weight of the decision visibly burdening her. Finally, she nodded, determination mingled with trepidation in her expression. "Alright, Catarina. Let's do it. Let's take the tunnels and protect the twins at all costs."

As we stepped into the darkness, fear and determination coiled within us - a silent promise to do whatever to be safe.

We hadn't gotten far when suddenly something made me stop.
