Fell for the Alpha-less Queen 570
Chapter 570 A Night Without Rest
Is she safe over there? Has she come into direct contact with any patients?”
“She’s wearing the highest level of protective gear. She’s okay for now. But the virus is mutating rapidly, St and Dr. Samuel are racing against the clock…”
“Tell her to focus on the virus. She doesn’t need to worry about this side,” Landon cut in. “Report to me immediately if anything changes.”
He hung up and turned to Nathaniel. “The council’s security team has sealed off the hospital. She can’t leave -even if she wanted to. If she brought the virus out with her, the consequences would be catastrophic
Nathaniel nodded. “What about our people stationed there?”
“Have them work with the council’s team. Guard the perimeter. Make sure no one tries to pull anything near the hospital,” Landon ordered. “Yalvaria’s people are still lurking. We can’t give them any opening
Once that was settled, he turned and glanced toward the hospital room. A flicker of conflict passed through his eyes. Tessa was trapped in a building full of infection and–soldiers. Walter was waiting for her at the end of his life. Landon was caught in the middle–his only choice was to carry the weight of both sides.
“Post another team around the Sinclair estate,” he added. “Especially near Winona and Lila. Don’t give them the chance to stir up trouble.”
“Already done,” Nathaniel said, prepared as always. “One team is watching the room. The other’s stationed around the estate. We’ve covered everything.”
Landon didn’t respond. He simply stood at the end of the corridor, staring out into the heavy darkness.
A virus crisis at the hospital. A dying grandfather at home. Yalvaria circling like vultures.
Tonight would not be a peaceful one.
Back at the hospital, Samuel and Tessa had already tried several methods–none of them worked.
Both of them looked exhausted. Especially Tessa–she had just finished a grueling digital battle with elite hackers and had jumped straight into virus analysis without even catching her breath. Now, dark shadows spread beneath her eyes.
“Take a break if you’re tired. I’ve got this for now,” Samuel said, worry in his voice as he watched her pale face.
Tessa shook her head, fingers moving across the virus sample analysis report. “This isn’t simple. I just helped Ethan capture S. These virus/samples… I have a bad feeling they’re connected to the rebel faction in the Southern continent–Yalvaria.”
Montedra was the heart of the werewolf clans. And for years, the Yalvaría core in the south had seen it as a thorn in their side.
They didn’t dare start a war outright. But covert attacks never stopped.
Samuel nodded grimly. “This is clearly a genetically engineered weapon–specifically designed to target Montedra werewolves. If we don’t crack it in time, it won’t just be the infected who suffer. The whole

Montedra defense line could collapse. And that’s exactly the window Yalvaria’s walding for!
“Did you get in touch with Professor Michael!” Tessa asked suddenly.
Hadn’t he always wanted to come to Montedra? If he could make it, maybe they could finally make some headway.
“No luck.” Samuel shook his head. “Most likely intercepted by Yalvaria. They’ll block anyone who might help
us.”
Tessa exhaled slowly, then remembered something. “You still have your phone?”
Because of the sensitive nature of this work, hers had been confiscated at the door.
“Yeah. They didn’t take mine.” Samuel passed it over. His position made it untouchable. “Who do you need to call?”
Tessa took the phone, hands trembling slightly as she dialed Landon’s number.
“It’s me,” she said the moment it connected. “I can’t leave for now. Are you… okay?”
“I’m fine. Don’t worry about me,” Landon’s voice came through, calm but a little too even. “Take care of yourself. Don’t take off your suit.”
“I know.” Her voice softened. “Can you go check on Grandpa for me? I can’t shake this feeling something’s wrong.”
Landon’s heart clenched, his hand tightening around the phone. “I’m heading over now. Focus on the virus. I’ll take care of him–nothing’s going to happen.”
He stared in the direction of the Sinclair estate, a subtle heaviness seeping into his voice.
How badly he wanted to tell her the truth. noveldrama
But with the hospital sealed tight, no one allowed in or out, telling her would only distract her and spark panic at the worst possible moment.
Better to let her concentrate fully on solving the crisis. On his end, he’d do everything he could to keep Walter alive–if only for one more minute–just long enough for her to make it out.
“Okay, I’ll hang up now,” Tessa said, not noticing the strain behind his tone. She quickly ended the call and turned to Samuel. “Let’s try one last approach. Use the werewolves‘ core energy to neutralize the virus. Maybe…”
She didn’t finish the sentence, but the fire in her eyes was enough to make Samuel feel hope flicker back to life.
