Chapter 62 Did It On Purpose?
When Claire fell down the stairs, this omega had stepped in front of the others, seemingly to protect them. Everything happened so fast that the rest of the omegas hadn’t seen exactly how Claire and Addison had tumbled down.
All they remembered was the chilling scream of the now-dead omega, shouting that ’Addison had pushed Claire’—and then, chaos. Their minds had gone blank in the shock that followed.
Moreover, this omega served closely at Claire’s side as her most trusted attendant. After all, the omegas had long been competing for Claire’s favor, each hoping to be chosen as her confidante.
Being chosen secured an important position within the pack, and who wouldn’t desire that? Claire was the royal princess, and even if her true identity wasn’t known, the mere thought of her becoming the future Luna would suffice. Gaining her favor not only assured influence but also offered a more comfortable and privileged existence within the pack’s hierarchy.
More importantly, this same omega had received a direct order from Beta Greg to clean up the dungeon, which meant she was likely aware of his schemes. Now that Beta Greg had fled, she had become a crucial figure in uncovering the truth.
From what he had gathered, this omega was the one who rallied the crowd, spreading the claim that Addison had pushed Claire and inciting fear by suggesting the entire pack could be endangered. She even claimed that Zion might be executed for negligence for allowing Claire to be harmed.
Initially, the others reacted with anger, as they looked down on Addison and revered Claire as their future Luna. But it seemed this omega deliberately leaked exaggerated or misleading information, portraying Claire as someone so important that any harm to her would bring severe consequences, further fueling the pack members’ resentment.
But their knowledge was limited, and it seemed this dead omega had been the key to all their unanswered questions. Now, with the omega dead and Greg nowhere to be found, Levi found himself at a frustrating dead end.
The key witness was gone, and the main instigator had escaped—what was he supposed to do now? When he sensed his Alpha reaching out to him, Levi couldn’t bring himself to respond. He couldn’t face him, not while he was consumed with frustration over accidentally killing the one person who could have unraveled the truth.
