The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 329

Chapter 329: Chapter 329 Fighting The Ogres

Addison’s brows rose in surprise. She hadn’t expected the young woman to grasp the situation so quickly, but with only a few hints, she had already unraveled the crux of the matter, and even understood why Addison insisted she go with the caravan.

"Yes, stay safe. Just focus on holding them off, don’t risk your lives. Stay on the defensive as you retreat. We’ll catch up to you as soon as we can," Addison instructed with a firm nod of approval.

It was no wonder Alpha Hue had chosen his eldest daughter as the next Alpha of their pack. She possessed sharp instincts, grasped the situation at once, and made decisions that truly mattered. Her potential was undeniable.

"I understand..." Alpha Hue’s daughter said, giving Addison a respectful nod before dashing off to follow the caravan’s trail. Addison’s words had opened her eyes; she now realized the caravan might truly be in danger.

The source of the poison dart was still unknown, which meant the culprit could very well target the fleeing group.

Even if the caravan wasn’t their enemy’s primary objective, it was still the easiest prey. Wiping out the elderly, children, and non-combatants would be far simpler than taking on Addison, Zion, and the veteran warriors of the Golden Hue Pack.

The caravan only had inexperienced teenage warriors, a few guards, and no real protection to cover everyone.

That was why they desperately needed someone to lead them to safety while Addison and the others held the front.

After watching Alpha Hue’s daughter disappear into the distance, Addison’s gaze snapped back to the battlefield. The ogre’s earlier strike had already landed, its sheer force sending a violent gust of wind that nearly knocked everyone off their feet.

Even without a direct hit, the impact alone left them staggering like drunkards.

Now, a second ogre emerged from the forest, its massive form looming over them. Zion and the warriors were already moving to draw the monsters’ attention, buying Addison precious moments to send Alpha Hue’s daughter after the caravan and deliver her instructions.

"Watch out! Don’t let them hit you, or you won’t survive!" Addison barked as she rejoined the fray. She wasn’t as strong as Zion, but she could still make herself useful, whether as a distraction or by striking from an unnoticed angle.

Her voice rang out as she sprinted to a safer position, always moving while the ogres advanced.

Fortunately, their massive size and bulky frames made them slow, giving the warriors precious seconds to dodge each swing. But that didn’t lessen the danger; one hit would be fatal if anyone failed to evade in time.

And now, with multiple ogres on the battlefield, the real challenge was clear. Still, despite their terrifying strength, ogres were little more than simple-minded brutes. That single weakness was enough to keep Addison and Zion steady, their nerves firm even against such overwhelming power.

Zion darted to the side, his claws flashing as he slashed across the ogre’s ankle, forcing the giant to stumble.

"ROAR!!!" The monster bellowed in fury, its rancid breath bursting from its maw in a wave of spit and stench.

Addison raised an arm to shield her face as the force of the roar battered her. The smell hit next, an overpowering, gut-wrenching stench that made her eyes water and her stomach lurch.

With her heightened senses, the foul odor was magnified tenfold, twisting her insides until she nearly gagged from the sheer disgust.

But unlike what Zion expected, the ogre didn’t collapse. His slash hadn’t gone deep enough to sever the tendon; its hide was far too thick and tough for that.

Snarling, Zion prepared to strike again, but a sudden whistle of air cut through his senses. Instinct flared, and he leapt aside just as a massive blow smashed into the spot where he had been standing, the ground trembling under the impact.

Another ogre had emerged from the treeline, and with every new giant that stepped out of the forest, their situation grew more dire.

"This won’t do. If we don’t thin their numbers, we’re finished," Addison muttered, her eyes narrowing at the three ogres now looming shoulder to shoulder. Even with Zion’s superb fighting skill, he couldn’t take on all three at once. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Their movements, though slow, were well-coordinated, each guarding the other’s blind spots, whether out of instinct, or perhaps it was because they had a bond like siblings.

’Wait... its skin may be tough, but its eyes and mouth can’t be nearly as tough.’ Her gaze sharpened as she studied the hulking creature as she wiped the foul spit from her face that had sprayed out during its roar.

’But then again, how could I even reach its weak spot when Zion himself was struggling to get close?’ Addison’s eyes swept the battlefield. Zion and the veteran warriors of the Golden Hue Pack were already in their wolf forms, straining against the ogres’ sheer strength, while she remained the only one still in human form.
