Chapter 1001: Chapter 1001

However, we heard footsteps behind us, crumbling my plan to dust.

Another set of guards exited the stairwell and walled us in.

My heart sank.

I knew we might not be able to defeat them all today.

It seemed that the Barton family was so bent on killing me that they had completely disregarded Caleb and his father’s support for me.

How dare they dispatch men so openly to attack me in the hospital?

My only choice was to threaten them.

“Listen up, I’m the future Luna.

Let us go.

If you don’t pay heed to my advice and insist on siding with the Barton family in disrespecting me, I will never spare you!”

The security guards were taken aback, but my threats weren’t enough to make them retreat.

Their leader stepped forward and said maliciously, “Debra, stop fooling people.

We’re all aware of your real identity.

You’re an evil witch.

”

Zoe rolled her eyes and spat out, “What a moron! If that’s what you claim, doesn’t that make the Alpha an idiot? He has no clue about who his mate really is, and he even let a witch become his Luna.

”

The guard’s expression was still hostile.

“The Alpha is only temporarily bewitched by Debra.

He will regret it in the future.

We work for the Barton family because they are protecting the Thorn Edge Pack.

They’re the only ones doing the right thing!”

The guard’s fanatic rant left Zoe speechless.

She stepped closer to me and whispered, “Debra, these people have been brainwashed.

You don’t need to waste your breath on them.

They work for the Barton family.

They can’t be made to see reason, so our only option is to fight them off.

”

As expected, as soon as Zoe finished speaking, the guards charged at us, completely ignoring my position.

They were extremely aggressive.

It was obvious that they intended to kill me.

“ARI”

Fiona was terrified.

She shrieked and shrank back into her mother’s arms.

Seeing this, Zoe turned into her wolf form and leaped forward to fight with them.

It was undeniable that her fighting skills were still invincible.

She was at par with this group of professionally trained guards.

However, there were too many of them.

It was inevitable for her to overlook a few when she was fighting so many of them by herself.

If we stayed here any Longer, she would get exhausted.

Feeling agitated, I asked, “Ivy, do you have any energy now? I need to help Zoe.

Bella has to look after her child and can’t contribute.

”

Ivy was also stuck with a tough decision.

“Honey, I’m also eager to help.

But we have just recovered from a serious illness, and we have absolutely no strength.

The guards will easily beat us up, which will only drag Zoe down.

”

I fell silent.

I could indeed sense that Ivy was very weak.

Even her voice barely had enough life t

hese days.

She had made immense sacrifices to save Caleb, and she was also affected by my witch power.

It didn’t take long for Zoe to realize that this wasn’t working for her.

If she kept fighting, she was going to run out of energy.

So she shouted in my direction, “Debra, I’ll deal with this bunch of guards.

Hurry up and get Fiona and Bella out of here!”

I stayed still.

I knew that it was impossible for Zoe to defeat these guards alone.

If Bella and I escaped without her, she might be in danger.

Suddenly, I was struck by a bold idea.

I tried to focus and discovered that I had recovered some of my strength.

Great! I would be able to use my witch power now.

I flicked my eyes in the direction of the guards, who were attacking Zoe, and a dark emotion surged up instantly, like a flood besieging my mind.

I was tired of hiding and escaping.

Since these people hired by the Barton family labeled me a witch, it would be fair to use my ability in front of them.
