The Masked Alpha was the only one who could teleport at will in the kingdom since it required someone to master holy or dark magic before they could do that. Thus, he quickly scratched the idea of Odette somehow teleported to the castle and landed in the royal garden.
The Masked Alpha started theorizing on how he could smell Odette's scent while she was not here, and came up with one clear answer;
He was too far gone. He couldn't even spend a second without thinking of Odette. He preferred her scent rather than his fated mate's scent, and he kept thinking of a good life he could have with her.
'So, it has come to this extent, huh?'
The Masked Alpha knew he couldn't mark Odile anymore. He was too reluctant, and the idea of marking and mating with anyone but Odette was too difficult to bear.
Odile had been waiting for so long but never felt the bite on her nape that she was craving. The Masked Alpha told her not to look back, but she couldn't help it as she became impatient.
