    As soon as we stepped out, a group of his subordinates approached him in a rather secretive manner. They handed over something before quickly retreating. The moment they left, I vaulted over the wall surrounding Benjamin''s residence. Benjamin sighed as he watched me. "Can''t you just use the front door?"


    I knew he was worried I''d hurt myself or break a leg, considering he still saw me as an Omega.


    But honestly, if he weren''t here, I could have simply surrendered my body to Hera-it would have been much easier to get inside that way.


    "Too much trouble," I muttered before striding directly into the house.


    After circling the main hall and not finding anything suspicious, I turned to Benjamin and asked, "Where''s the treasure?"


    Benjamin smiled faintly. "What makes you so sure that''s what they delivered?"


    "I just know," I said impatiently. "Now hurry up and tell me where it is!"


    His lips curved into a doting smile as he shook his head. Then, he lifted his chin, gesturing toward the


    innermost room.


    I could barely contain myself and almost ran toward it.


    But as I neared the door, Hera picked up a familiar scent that sent me a wave of


    unease.


    With growing apprehension, I pushed the door open. The moment I saw the item inside, my heart clenched.


    Benjamin''s so-called ''treasure'' turned out to be an ice coffin


    And inside ity a person.


    Sure enough-it was someone I knew well. Dominic Reid. The former administrator of the SI Organization -the man who had been reced.


    I had assumed Dominic was merely being held captive. I never expected to find him like this.


    Forcing myself to stay calm, I stepped closer to examine him. But I couldn''t sense any sign of life from within the coffin.


    "Is he dead?" I turned to Benjamin in disbelief, my voice heavy with sorrow.


    Benjamin''s POV:


    I hadn''t expected this kind of reaction from Hayley.

    sorrowful as well.


    She knew this man.


    That realization unsettled me.


    This was the first time I had ever seen her disy such undeniable concern for another man.


    A heavy sensation settled in my chest, filling me with an inexplicable irritation.

    "A corpse has no value in a power struggle," I said coldly. "The ice coffin maintains


    a constant temperature and provides enough oxygen. Right now, he''s merely in a state of feigned death."


    At those words, Hayley visibly rxed. Without hesitation, she stepped forward and opened the ice coffin.


    Hayley''s POV:


    A quick examination told me that Dominic''s condition was far more severe than simple unconsciousness.


    His tendons had been severed-both in his hands and feet. That was why he had lost consciousness.


    I tried to have Hera summon his wolf, but no matter how many times I called, it wouldn''t wake.


    Someone had injected him with a drug. On the surface, he looked like he was merely asleep, but in reality, he was teetering on the edge of death.


    I couldn''t determine exactly what had been used on him, but one thing was clear- he needed surgery immediately.


    With Benjamin standing right there, I had no time to worry about keeping secrets. I pulled out my phone


    and called udio.


    "You need to return immediately," I said sternly. "Dominic is in trouble. You''ll have to perform the surgery yourself.”


    "Wait-who did you say?"


    “Dominic. He''s... That''s impossible!" udio''s voice wasced with disbelief. "I was just exchanging messages with him before you called!"


    My heart sank. After a brief moment of thought, I gave a swift order. "Get out of there. Now."
