Chapter 441
The closer she got to the front of the Chimeran ranks, the more chaos there seemed to be. She found the Alphas spread out through the crowd, trying to manage the clans and keep the females in their own spaces. But they’d had to be broken into smaller groups to make sure they could be spread out among the clans, and now some were beginning to panic.

The shriek they’d heard was because a male had attempted to comfort a female who was breaking down, and all hell had broken loose.

Sasha’s head was already spinning—how had she continued to forget about the solo nature of the Gateway? Why couldn’t they catch a break? But she didn’t have time to analyze it, because Kyelle

—near the front of the cave—was desperately trying to calm the frantic females before walking through herself. She was supposed to be first. They hadn’t even begun to cross.

Sasha’s stomach dropped. They needed to get moving!

“I’m sorry,” Kyelle said when she saw her. “I didn’t want to step in until I could make sure they’d heard the instructions. I’m worried they’ll focus on the wrong place out of fear or just panic.

Sasha nodded. But something about the female’s words, her stance, raised Sasha’s instincts. There was a cluster of females off to their right that Kyelle had been speaking to, but her own tension was so high, that Sasha wondered if she’d actually been helping less than she thought.
