The Despised Luna's Comeback

Chapter 494 Finally Rescued

Caden's POV: Queenie froze, turning around in disbelief. The moment she saw me, her face went deathly pale. Heidi was also stunned for a second before breaking into a relieved smile. She cried out with all her strength, "Caden! Save me, I'm here!—" Before the gang of werewolf thugs could react, my werewolf bodyguards lunged at them, either locking their throats or delivering powerful kicks to their backs, sending them crashing to the ground. These low-tier werewolves were no match for the specially trained guards of the Eclipse Pack. In mere moments, they were all groaning in pain, unable to even stand. Queenie was so terrified she couldn't move, only able to watch as I approached. I shot her a glare before kneeling down, wrapping my suit jacket around Heidi, and pulling her into my arms. I gently patted her back, soothing her with a soft voice, "It's okay now. You don't have to be afraid anymore. I'm here, and I've got you. Everything's okay." When she felt safe, Heidi broke down, sobbing uncontrollably in my arms. "Caden, you finally came ... I was so scared." She clung tightly to my sleeve, sobbing uncontrollably as if trying to release all her pent-up fear. I looked down, my eyes darkening slightly. After briefly pausing, I patted her back again, reassuring her softly, "It's over now. You're safe." Queenie stood frozen in place, not daring to make a single move. Meanwhile, Heidi gradually calmed down, though her teary eyes still burned with hatred as she glared at Queenie. "Caden, it was her! She ordered people to kidnap me. She said that if she ruined me, I wouldn't be able to marry you!" Heidi sobbed again as she spoke, her voice trembling with grievance. Queenie's face turned ashen, but she still shot Heidi a resentful glare. However, in my presence, she dared not act rashly. I stared coldly at Queenie. I had always known she harbored ill intentions, but I never imagined she would be this reckless—nearly sabotaging the plan Rosaline and I had been orchestrating for so long! I turned around and glared at Queenie. She shuddered, nearly dropping her phone, and even her voice started to tremble. "C-Caden, listen to me, it's not what you think." "What else do you have to say?!" I looked at Queenie coldly, my voice laced with anger. "Didn't I tell you not to lay a hand on Tessa? And we're about to get engaged—do you think you can just ignore me?!" Fury surged through me, my glare so cold that Queenie instinctively stepped back, fear written all over her face. She knew just how terrifying I could be when truly enraged. As the rightful heir to the Eclipse Pack, the oppressive aura I exuded was enough to make the surrounding werewolves tremble and bow in submission, emitting whimpers of surrender. With a loud thud, Queenie dropped to her knees, groveling at my feet and kissing my shoes as she wailed for forgiveness. I looked down at her with disdain and kicked her aside, my voice low and commanding. "Since Tessa is unharmed, I won't pursue this matter for now. But don't think you can get away with something like this again. You're out of control! Now get lost!" Without sparing her another glance, I draped my jacket over Heidi, lifting her into my arms and striding out of the warehouse. Heidi's POV: I fixed my eyes on Caden, seeing how he reacted just now. It was clear—he still cared about me. Caden carried me to the car, setting me down in the passenger seat before instructing the werewolf driver, "Take Ms. Tessford to Argent Hotel for the engagement ceremony." Hearing this, I felt something was off. Holding onto the car window for support, I looked at Caden in confusion and asked, "You're only sending me? Caden, aren't you coming with me?" As I spoke, I instinctively reached out and grabbed onto the sleeve of his shirt. Caden patted my hand, his voice gentle. "Don't worry, everything's fine now. I just need to take care of a few things at the company. I'll be there soon. You go ahead and freshen up at the hotel so everything goes smoothly later." As he spoke, he lightly tapped my nose and added with a smile, "My bride has to be the most beautiful one there. After what Queenie did to you, you should get to the hotel early and freshen up. Be good." Hearing his words, I smiled to myself. Since he put it that way, I had no reason to object, so I nodded in agreement. The driver took me to the hotel, where I washed my face. Soon after, a professional stylist arrived to redo my makeup. Staring at my reflection in the mirror, I let out a breath of relief.If I make it through today, I will be Caden's fiancée—the future Luna of the Eclipse Pack. Then we'll see who dares to look down on me.
