Chapter 734 Forgot the Alpha King
Hayley''s POV:
"I''m a man of my word."

Frederick''s tone was still as icy as ever. "But your powerful friend suspended me. Even if I wanted to help you, I''m afraid there''s not much I can do."
"Oh! Samson! I actually forgot about him-the Alpha King!" I muttered to myself, realization dawning a bit toote. "If I''d just talked to him directly, I wouldn''t have had to bother you at all."
Frederick shot me an exasperated look. "Ms. Carson, I''m still standing right here, you know! If you''re going to say things that break my heart, could you at least wait until I''m out of earshot?"
"It''s fine-we know each other well enough. Doesn''t matter if you hear." I patted his shoulder and turned to leave.
"Hey, what''s that supposed to mean?" Frederick called after me.
"Nothing at all." I raised an eyebrow at him. "I''ll have Samson handle the search for udio."
"What about me?" Frederick looked thoroughly annoyed.
"Find something to do yourself. I don''t have time to babysit you." I waved him off, already heading out the door.
"Now that I know who Phillip really is, aren''t you afraid I''ll arrest him?" Frederick threatened.
I stopped in my tracks but didn''t bother turning around as I replied, "Go ahead. I''d love to see Langston, champion of justice, abusing his authority for personal reasons and using excessive force. That''s a
Captain sight I wouldn''t want to miss."
"What are you getting at?" Frederick narrowed his eyes, his wolf irises shing crimson,
"What am I getting at? Even if udio is a Rogue, right now he''s just a doctor. What serious crime could he possibly havemitted?
"You want to arrest him for saving lives? He''s a skilled healer. You wouldn''t dare kill him or even hurt him- because if anything happens to udio, the people you''re trying to save will have only one oue- death."
With that, I walked away without looking back.
Even long after I''d left, Frederick stood there, deep in thought.
After a while, he finally camé to his senses and nced at Benjamin beside him. "Phillip is udio, and Hayley is close to udio. Stewart treats her with the utmost respect. Her skill with silver needles is uncanny-no one can avoid it. Is she really just the Omega she appears to be on the surface?
"Who exactly is your fiancée?"
"Figure it out yourself." Benjamin patted his shoulder, then headed back to his
own room.

Frederick looked over at Zayd, still huddled under the nket. After a long moment, he suddenly blurted out, "They''re all gone-what are you still embarrassed about? It''s not like I haven''t seen it before!"
Zayd, who had been about to toss off the nket, froze at Frederick''s words. He simply flopped back onto the bed, wrapped up tight, and went straight to sleep.
Frederick, having slept all day, wasn''t tired at all. He shut the door behind him and stepped out.
After being cooped up for days, he needed to get out and see how the situation outside had changed.
Hayley''s POV:
Back in my room, I dialed Samson''s private number.
He picked up almost immediately. "Hayley?"
"You knew it was me?" I was a little surprised.
"Not many people have this number, and at this hour, most of my acquaintances are early-to-bed, early-to- rise types. Who else but you would be calling now?" Samson exined.
"Fair enough." I got straight to the point. "A friend of mine was kidnapped from the ck market. I need your help for a citywide search. Is that possible?"
