Chapter 212 Buried Alive
Third–Person POV
Inside the copsed stone cavern, Alpha Mateo let out a few coughs. Warm blood had sttered onto him–but it wasn’t his.
“Aubrey?!”

He reached out instinctively, his palming back wet and sticky. He tried to sit up, only to realize he waspletely pinned down. Aubrey had thrown herself over him and taken the brunt of the falling rocks.
She was injured.
“Why…” Alpha Mateo stared in disbelief. He never imagined that, in the final moment, the one who’d save him would be Aubrey.
“Don’t… move.”
Aubrey’s voice was faint and strained. Between the two of them, there was barely a cubic meter of space. If they had been anyrger, there wouldn’t even be enough room to breathe.
Frustration surged through Mateo. “You… damn it! Why the hell did youe running back for me?!”
To that, Aubrey could only frown. <i>This </i><i>man </i><i>is </i>so <i>weird</i>. That werewolf had tried to drag Mateo to death with him. If she hadn’t stepped in, he’d already be dead–and now he was ming her for saving him?
Her brows creased. “What… you wanted to die that badly?”
Outside the stone cavern-
The others were still frantically trying to move the rubble by hand, unsure how long it would take. Suddenly, a group burst through. Everyone tensed on instinct, until Perry shouted:
“Cam?!”
Then his expression changed. “Wait–don’t tell me Alpha came too?!”
This is bad. Very bad.
Alpha Henry wasn’t supposed toe inside. But the moment he heard the explosion, something twisted in his chest–an unshakable sense of dread–and he’d ignored all attempts to stop him, charging straight into the chaos.

The crowd parted. Alpha Henry appeared in full ck protective gear, striding in with terrifying authority. One nce at the carnage was enough to fill the air around him with murderous pressure. His stare alone felt scorching.
“Where is she?”
He didn’t see Aubrey anywhere. That sinking feeling in his gut deepened.
Perry’s fingers trembled as he pointed at the rubble–filled cavern. For the first time in his life, his voice stammered.
“Miss… Miss is in there.”
Inside the cave, Aubrey could feel how bad her injuries were. Under normal circumstances, she would never let E heal her—it was too risky and could expose her identity. But this ce was far too dangerous. The longer her wounds stayed open, the higher the chance of viral infection.
So, she gave E permission to speed up her healing.
In mere moments, all of Aubrey’s external wounds had vanished. E’s control was precise- she healed the cuts but left the bruises, so she wouldn’t lookpletely unharmed.
It all happened quietly. Alpha Mateo didn’t notice a thing.
But Aubrey’s silence started to make Mateo panic. <i>Was </i><i>she </i><i>unconscious </i><i>from </i><i>blood </i><i>loss</i>?
“Aubrey? Are you okay? Don’t fall asleep!”
His voice was loud in the cramped space. Aubrey winced and muttered, “Stop talking… too loud.”
The sound of her voice finally calmed Mateo’s nerves. But then, his expression shifted again.
“Why did you save me?”
That was the one thing he just couldn’t understand. Aubrey didn’te across as someone who’d risk her life for others. Why would she do it for him? It didn’t make sense. She was just an omega–and throwing herself in like that had meant almost certain death.
Aubrey gave a low snort but said nothing. She’d been the one who brought Mateo in for this operation. His team had yed a crucial role. She wasn’t about to let him die here. That was a matter of principle.
Just then, the satellite phone on her waist began to ring.
“My hand’s stuck,” Aubrey said tly. “Get it out for me.”

“Where?”
“Below my waist.”

Alpha Mateo’s emotions were all over the ce. It was pitch dark. He couldn’t see a thing–his senses were heightened. This was the closest he’d ever been to the woman he liked. But this was a feeling he would never admit to, not even under torture.
Because liking a woman who didn’t feel the same was already pathetic enough. Telling her about it would just make it worse.
He steeled himself and reached downward. Since they were both pinned, he had no choice but to feel along the line where their bodies were pressed together, inching lower…
