My Badass Alpha のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 201 - チャプター 210

IRIS'S POV STILL SEARCHING The warmth from the fire helped, but the pain was still relentless, gnawing at my arm and leg. I tried to stay focused, to keep my mind sharp, but exhaustion weighed me down. Gavin’s arms around me and the steady crackle of the fire were the only things grounding me in that moment, keeping me from drifting too far into the pain. "Are you comfortable?" Gavin whispered, his breath warm against my ear. I nodded slightly, leaning into him. "I’ll be fine," I replied, even though I wasn’t quite sure of it myself. But I didn’t want him to worry more than he already did. He brushed a strand of hair from my face, tucking it gently behind my ear. "You don’t have to be strong all the time, Iris." His words hit me harder than I’d expected. The truth was, I was exhausted, of always having to fight, of constantly being on edge, watching for the next threat, the next betrayal. And now, Helen was missing, taken somewhere we couldn’t reach her. The fear and guilt twis

IRIS'S POV JOURNEY AHEAD The rogue laughed again, but before he could respond, Gavin lunged. The two of them collided with a ferocity that sent them both sprawling into the underbrush. Jerry moved to help, but another rogue emerged from the shadows, blocking his path. I clenched my fists, ignoring the pain in my arm. I stepped toward the rogue facing me, my gaze locked onto him, daring him to make a move. "If you think I’ll let you walk out of here, you’re sorely mistaken." The rogue snarled, lunging at me. I ducked, adrenaline dulling the pain in my wounds, and kicked out, catching him off guard. He stumbled back, a look of surprise flashing across his face. But it was all the opening I needed. With every ounce of strength I had left, I struck, feeling the impact resonate through my body. The rogue crumpled to the ground, and I stepped back, breathing hard, the throbbing in my arm now impossible to ignore. I looked up to see Gavin and Jerry standing over the other rogue, both of

GAVIN'S POV THE ESCAPE Jerry took a step forward, his voice hard. “Where the hell is Helen? You freaks!” The man smirked, shaking his head. “Helen was just the start. There are bigger games at play here, gentlemen. And you’re just pieces on the board.” With that, he turned and walked out, the door slamming shut behind him. The sound echoed through the small room, a harsh reminder of our captivity. I clenched my fists, my heart pounding. We’d find a way out of here. For Helen, for Iris, and for every person depending on us. Whoever this guy was, he didn’t realize who he was messing with. “We’ll get through this,” I said quietly, more for my own reassurance than anything. Jerry nodded, a steely resolve in his eyes. “We’ll make them pay. And we’ll bring everyone back safely.” The silence after the door slammed shut was thick and stifling. The man’s mocking words replayed in my mind, grating against every nerve. I glanced at Jerry, who was still glaring at the door, jaw clenched,

Gavin's POV FOUND I gritted my teeth, forcing myself to stay calm. “They’re trying to keep us running in circles. I found one of their decoys back there, some guy planting markers to lead us off track. Whoever’s behind this… they know exactly how to play the game.” Jerry’s eyes hardened, his jaw clenching. “We need to get ahead of them. Figure out their next move instead of reacting to it.” I nodded, my mind racing as I looked around the clearing, trying to piece together any information from the faint signs on the ground. “They’re likely keeping her somewhere close. They know we’re combing the forest, and they’d want to keep her nearby to keep us running in circles.” He ran a hand through his hair, frustration etched across his face. “So we keep pushing forward. If they’re hiding her out here, there has to be some kind of structure or camp they’re using as a base.” “Let’s go,” I said, determination hardening inside me. The two of us moved with purpose, retracing my pa

HIDDEN RELATIVE He was right, but that didn’t ease my frustration. The rogue’s network was deeper than we’d realised, and they clearly had enough intel on us to set traps and manipulate our weaknesses. I’d thought this was about Helen, a personal vendetta or attack on her alone. But seeing the organised assault, the way the rogues had gone about it, this was bigger than Helen, bigger than any single person. This was an attempt to destabilise us, to make us vulnerable. “Gavin,” Helen’s voice was soft, barely above a whisper, as she glanced up at me. “I… I overheard something while they were holding me.” Her words brought me to a halt, and I motioned for Jerry to stop as well. “What did you hear?” She swallowed, the exhaustion replaced by a hardened resolve. “They kept talking about a larger plan… something about ‘reclaiming power.’ I don’t know what that means exactly, but it sounded like more than just a random attack.” Jerry and I exchanged a look, his expression mirroring the g
