The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179: Chapter179 She’s MINE

Addison couldn’t remember. Her circumstances were different now. And no matter how much emotion was in Lance’s eyes, she couldn’t answer the plea he laid bare before her.

She opened her mouth, trying to find the words—

But before she could speak, a shadow flashed past her.

Something lunged at Lance.

In the blink of an eye, it tackled him to the ground, pinning him as fists flew in a blur.

Addison was stunned for a split second, but instinct took over, and she immediately rushed to help Lance, thinking they were under attack.

But as she got closer, her eyes widened in shock.

It was Zion.

He looked murderous, feral even.

"Don’t touch my mate!" he growled, his voice warped with Shura’s, deep, beastly, and raw with primal rage. His golden eyes gleamed dangerously, a clear sign that Shura was close to breaking through.

Addison quickly grabbed Zion’s raised arm, stopping him before he could land another brutal punch.

Lance, though momentarily caught off guard by the surprise attack, wasn’t weak, far from it. After the first blow landed squarely, he recovered fast, catching Zion’s fist mid-swing and locking it in place just as Addison intervened.

Neither of them had sensed Zion approaching. His scent had been completely masked, making his ambush all the more unexpected.

"She’s mine! Mine!" Zion roared, his voice a thunderous blend of rage and possessiveness.

The sight of Lance touching Addison, his Addison, and the mere idea that another man would dare lay claim to her shattered the last remnants of Zion’s control. His vision blurred with fury, and before he even realized it, he had already lunged at Lance.

Shura was fully in offensive mode now, flooding Zion’s mind with primal instinct and rage, determined to eliminate the threat standing between them and their mate.

"Zion! Stop!" Addison shouted, her voice sharp with authority and her eyes burning with anger.

The moment Zion met her gaze, his aggressive expression faltered. He winced, lips pressed tightly together, clearly reluctant to get off Lance. With one last petty jab to Lance’s side, he finally let go, only because he heard Addison click her tongue in annoyance. He knew if he pushed any further, she’d only grow more upset with him.

"What are you even doing here?" Addison demanded, narrowing her eyes. "Don’t tell me... you’re stalking me?"

She didn’t want to sound self-important, but she genuinely couldn’t come up with another reason why he’d appear at that exact moment.

"I... No... I was just taking a walk and got lost," Zion stammered, scrambling for an excuse. Of course, he couldn’t exactly admit he had been sneaking around the Main Palace. That would only make things worse.

But before Addison could respond, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed behind Zion.

The Alpha King and Queen appeared, concern etched on their faces, and they weren’t alone. Maxwell was with them, having arrived for a visit. He’d heard the commotion too, and when Addison’s angry voice rang through the garden, they rushed over to see what was happening. Maxwell’s eyes immediately locked onto Addison, clearly worried. It was obvious he’d come not just for a casual visit, but to get closer to his mate.

"Alpha Zion!" another voice called out.

Seeing the scene unfold, Addison upset, Lance rumpled, and Zion looking guilty, Levi dragged a hand down his face in exasperation. ’Why is it always something with him?’ he thought. Zion’s impulsiveness was one thing, but when Shura was triggered, things often spiraled out of control faster than anyone could manage.
