Alpha's Rejected Mate Returns as Queen

Chapter 326

326 Rainy Night

The wanderers’ POV:

With the construction, the nightlife of the spring rain pack had gradually become richer. The heavy atmosphere of death was leaving this Land of Hope and was replaced by endless vitality and energy.

Under the cover of midnight and the shadows, a team of werewolves was sneaking around the hidden corner of the Spring Rain Pack. They were travel-worn and had extraordinary skills. Their fierce faces were full of shrewdness and hostility, and each had a strong evil aura and bloody smell, making hiding an extremely difficult thing.

“Damn it. I told you this wasn’t reliable. I was right!” One of the short and strong werewolves spat angrily. “We were all f*cking tricked by that old thing! He said he wouldn’t have to worry about food and water for the rest of his life after this big deal, but now he’s almost losing his life!”

His companion had the same thought. “I’m going to run away after this. There’s no place for us in the werewolf’s territory. It’s better to sneak into human society and have some fun. That’s not the werewolf’s territory, and it’s beyond their reach. They can’t control how I spend my time there!”

They only exchanged a few words occasionally. This group of people had fierce looks but also fear on their faces. They only dared to say harsh words to boost each other’s courage.

Their leader led the way in silence. Occasionally, neon lights would flash across his face under the hood of his hoodie, making the hideous scars look like they were oozing blood.

He interrupted everyone, “Be serious. We’ll talk at the border. Otherwise, you might not even live to see the sun tomorrow, let alone run to human society.”

This person was very prestigious among the stray werewolves. Although not everyone respected him, no one dared to challenge his authority.

The clouds in the sky gathered, and after a few claps of thunder, the autumn rain quietly fell.

The sudden rain caught the people off guard. The workers on duty rushed out to cover the building materials exposed in the air with a tarp, and the pedestrians on the night tour rushed to the buildings on the side to avoid the rain. The street was in a state of panic, and the wanderers had no choice but to temporarily stop their advance and hide in an empty corner to avoid being seen.

When it rains, it pours. Even the taciturn leader of the wanderers could not help but complain, “Damn the weather, it’s troubling me on purpose!”

A few of the stray werewolves were exhausted. They hesitantly put down the backpacks on their shoulders and asked their leader, “Boss, this thing is useless now, right? Our brothers are tired from carrying the monsters. Why don’t we leave them? We can’t connect with the other side now, so bringing these burdens will only add to the pressure.”

He opened his backpack, and a few strange small wooden sculptures were inside. These wood carvings were sculpted into the shape of children. The technique was rough, but they exuded an aura of despair and horror.

The leader looked at the werewolf who spoke and said nothing, but the werewolf who spoke shuddered. He silently closed his backpack and put it back on his shoulder, no longer saying anything.

A few minutes later, the street was quiet again, and only the rain could be heard.

“Let’s go,” the leader ordered. “Run as fast as you can. Stay alert. Something’s not right.”

The wanderers started running, and a few asked, “What happened, boss? Has someone discovered us?”

“This pack is being watched everywhere. Idiots, they probably already knew that we’d infiltrated the city.” The leader said, “There’s no one on the street now. Anyone who’s out will be very conspicuous. This isn’t a matter of being exposed or not, but we have no other choice. It’s only a matter of time before we’re exposed. Run with all your might if you don’t want to die!”

Just as the leader had said, a few minutes later, a force that was obviously from the regular army began to track the stray werewolves brazenly. This made everyone feel uneasy. The leader tried to change his route to shake off the pursuers, but it was useless.

“What do we do, boss?” The timid wanderer began to tremble. “It’s the army. It must be the army! They’ve discovered us. There is only a handful of us, and we have no chance of winning against them!”

“Stop your f*cking nonsense and run!” The leader gave him a hard slap. “You can either run for your life or stay behind to cover our brothers. It’s your choice, you coward!”

The wanderers fled with all their might, but to the pursuers, it was like a turtle in a jar. Soon, they found that the pursuers appeared from different directions one after another, obviously forcing them to shrink their activity circle.

“Motherf*ckers!”

Seeing that the situation wasn’t good, the leader cursed in his heart and asked his subordinates to throw away the wooden sculptures in their backpacks. Then, he took out a bottle of scarlet liquid with the smell of the sea and poured it on the wooden sculptures.

“You don’t want these little brats anymore?” The subordinates were on tenterhooks.

“You’re about to lose your life. Why do you still care about this?” the leader scolded. “We’ll catch new ones when they run away. It’s more important to escape now!”

They abandoned their burdens and fled into the distance. The wooden sculptures left behind were gradually penetrated by the scarlet liquid, twisting and expanding and finally turning into living children.

Raindrops fell on the children’s faces, and the cold made them gradually open their eyes.
