Chapter 148 A Faction Between Their Enemies?
Zion let out a long, relieved sigh, tension visibly leaving his shoulders.
"But now... I understand why you never acknowledged her. Why the palace never sent for her. She wasn’t the real princess."
Zion’s eyes lowered, guilt flickering across his expression. He made a mistake. He misidentified Claire as the missing princess. And while he was guarding a decoy, Beta Greg betrayed him and leaked the same false information to their enemies.
Ironically, that mistake gave Addison the safety she needed to recover in peace. While Claire drew their attention at the Midnight River Pack, the real princess, Addison, was able to be taken to the Sacred Land to be healed and return to the capital unharmed.
He looked toward Addison and then the royal couple.
"So now I can only assume... just as I was shocked to learn Addison is the true princess, our hidden enemies will be equally stunned to realize she’s been right under their noses this entire time."
And due to the severe security around Addison’s palace, no one has found out about her return so no one knew that she also given birth, but now that Addison was hering about all this undercurrent happening around her, she instantly paled, after all, hearing all this only proved that she’s being targetted and that hidden enemy wouldn’t stop targetting her until they got her into their hands but for what reason they wanted her?
This was exactly what they needed to uncover, and little by little, the pieces were starting to fall into place, revealing the truth behind Addison’s abduction six years ago.
It was possible that the vampires had been coaxed or manipulated by the dark witch’s faction to abduct Addison, working together toward a shared goal. However, their motivations didn’t appear to be fully aligned. There was a growing sense that each faction had its own reason for targeting Addison, or worse, that they were collaborating as part of a larger, more sinister scheme that no one could yet comprehend.
