Alpha Rebellion

Chapter 552: Failed Plans

The ride to the airport lasted only fifteen minutes, but to Violet, it felt like an eternity in hell.

By the tthe limousine rolled past the final stretch of road, she knew without a single doubt. Elijah knew.

He knew she was his brother's daughter.

And just like he tormented his own heirs, he had shifted his twisted games onto her.

He wasn’t confronting her outright. No, that would have been too easy. Instead, Elijah taunted her with the truth,

needling at her composure, savoring the slow, deliberate torment of keeping her on edge until she cracked and

confessed.

Violet refused to give him that satisfaction.

Her face remained perfectly calm and polite, a mask she wore with brutal discipline. But inside, her wolf snarled

and thrashed against its cage. Thalia wanted blood. Violet wanted to scream.

Every breath she took felt poisoned by Elijah’s suffocating presence, his musky, dominating scent filling the

enclosed space like a trap.

So when the limousine finally stopped and she stepped outside, it felt like coming back to life. The crisp, fresh air

hit her lungs, washing away the stench of him. Her shoulders loosened ever so slightly, though the tension in her

gut remained.

On the bright side, it was tto execute Plan B.

If Violet was being honest, it wasn’t the most brilliant plan ever, but it was the best they had cup with

considering the situation.

The airport for private planes wasn’t like a commercial one. There were no endless lines of passengers or giant

terminals. Private jets loaded in a smaller, quieter section off to the side — just a few hangars, a couple of

runways, and a single building for paperwork and security checks. Most of the time, security here was lighter

because everyone flying private was "trusted," especially the Alpha King.

Their plan was simple: escape before the plane ever left the ground.

The moment Elijah’s jet stopped and everyone got caught up with luggage and greetings, Violet and Griffin

would slip out through the back of the hangar. Most hangars had two exits, the large front gate for the planes,

and a smaller side door for ground staff.

Once they were through that door, they'd only need to get past a chain-link fence with a single guard. It wouldn't

be hard for Griffin to knock him out if it cto that.

From there, they'd make their break for freedom.

Roman would stay behind with Elijah and play dumb, keeping the Alpha King’s attention on him long enough for

them to disappear completely. By the tElijah realized they were gone, his jet would already be in the air, and

they’d be miles away heading for the North Pack to find Alaric.

It was risky, and they weren't even sure it would work, but it was better than doing nothing.

Hence Violet and Griffin moved quickly, their hearts pounding, eager to get this over with before anyone noticed.

The plan was working perfectly—almost too perfectly — as they slipped from out the back of the hangar. For one

brief, shining moment, Violet thought they were actually going to make it until they stepped outside and her

breath caught.

Right there, by the perimeter fence, stood six guards. And not just any guards, but werewolves.

They weren't just stationed casually either. Their stances were tight, alert, and shoulders squared, like they had

been expecting someone to cthrough this exit.

Violet and Griffin froze, exchanging a tense glance.

Griffin swallowed, then rolled his shoulders, muscles flexing beneath his shirt. The message was clear to Violet,

he'd

take them all down if he had to.

But before he could make a move, someone said from behind,

"What are the two of you doing here?"

Violet spun around to see Christian, Elijah’s beta, striding toward them with suspicion in his eyes. "The plane is

about to take off," he added, his tone dangerously calm.

The truth hit Violet like a punch to the gut. Elijah had been one step ahead of them all along. Not that they

haven't seen this coming, but failure still hurts.

With no other choice, they returned to the jet, Griffin's jaw locked tight. Violet's stomach churned the entire walk

back.

When they reboarded, the atmosphere inside the cabin was completely different. Elijah was seated comfortably

in his leather chair, sunlight streaming through the oval windows, laughter booming as Roman leaned toward

him, clearly entertaining the Alpha King with selaborate story.

Roman's green eyes flicked up at their arrival. The brief widening of his eyes said everything—he had fully

expected them to be gone by now.

"Oh, Roman," Elijah chuckled, wiping a tear of laughter from the corner of his eye, "you truly are a delight."

Then his gaze shifted toward Violet and Griffin. "Did you two go somewhere?" he asked innocently.

Griffin lied. "Violet has a fear of flying, | was just trying to calm her down before we took off."

cabin reserved for the Alpha King.

The moment the door slid shut, Violet, Griffin, and Roman let out a collective, defeated sigh.

On the bright side, at least they weren't stuck sitting with the smug bastard for the next four hours.

"We have only one option left now." Griffin said, holding Roman and Violet's gaze.

"Asher’s." Violet breathed.

Of course, they hadn't made all these plans without keeping the puppet master informed.

Asher had let them plan their escape, then quietly added a final move of his own, just in case the others failed.

Now, everything rested on him, and their own timing.
