I just need to check in on her and her family," Racheal replied softly.Daniel nodded, making a turn and heading towards Davina's house. "Is everything alright, Rachael?

In the middle of the night, the moonlight filtering through the window of Axel's room, Racheal stirred in her sleep as a faint knocking echoed through the room. She blinked groggily, reaching out to check the time on the nightstand beside the bed. It read past two am.Racheal nudged Axel gently, her voice barely above a whisper, "Axel, did you hear that knocking?"Axel's eyes fluttered open, his brows furrowed in confusion. "Yeah, I did. Who could be knocking at this hour?"The knocking sounded again, more urgent this time, and both of them glanced towards the door. Without a word, Axel got out of bed and made his way to the door.

As Athena's body was unceremoniously dumped in the tunnel designated for disposing of dead rogues, she lay still, her eyes closed and her breathing shallow. The guards who had brought her there chuckled amongst themselves, satisfied that they had rid themselves of a potential threat."Good riddance to that ," one of them sneered, kicking Athena's limp body for good measure."Yeah, she never stood a chance against our Alpha," another added, a cruel smirk on his face.But just as they turned to leave, a low groan escaped Athena's lips, causing them to freeze in their tracks."What was that?" one of them whispered, fear creeping into his voice."I think she's waking up," another replied, his eyes widening in disbelief.Sure enough, Athena's eyes fluttered open, revealing a pair of glowing red eye balls that sent a shiver down their spines."What... what's happening?"

Athena, who was supposed to be dead. Panic surged through her veins as she bolted out of bed and ran to Axel's room, pounding on the door until he opened it, teary eyed and disheveled."Racheal, what's wrong?"

The maid handed Alpha Axel a tiny transparent bag, containing Ardolf's strand of hair. Axel examined it closely before nodding in approval."Thank you," he said to the maid, who curtsied and left the room.Axel then pulled a strand of his own hair and put it in another bag. He made a call to the royal doctor, requesting him to come over immediately.The doctor arrived promptly, and Axel wasted no time in explaining the situation. "I need a DNA test between these two samples," he said, handing over the bags.The doctor nodded, not asking any questions.
